Ridgebreaker

The Ridgebreaker is a dreadnought class ship designed solely for sieging.

Description
The Ridgebreaker is a highly decorated ship. It has a uniquely designed front, 'ridges' as decorations and 2 ornate thrusters on its sides.

One prominent feature is its massive Spinals attached to its front.

Interior
The interior of the Ridgebreaker got removed so there were less parts on the ships. This would make the ship less laggy. Currently, the only interior is the cockpit. When you walk in, you will see a room and a ramp to the captain's seat. However, the dashboard is quite well decorated.

Strengths

 * Extremely high spinal firepower that can wreck havoc on anything that is hit by them.
 * Extremely high health, highest health for a dreadnought.
 * Powerful siege turret firepower.
 * Overall high damage output.
 * Able to tank for a long period of time without hitting hull.
 * Can solo-siege a Level 1 Starbase.

Weaknesses

 * Extremely slow, the slowest dreadnought in-game and second slowest ship, right behind the Nyx.
 * Lack of small turrets makes it unable to fend off small ships.
 * Vulnerable bottom.
 * Slightly lower cargo hold than other Dreadnoughts.
 * Hard to turn and control.

Strategy

 * A sieger's dream ship. It can out-range base lasers and deal massive damage with its spinals, more than that of all its railguns (possibly all turrets) combined.
 * A significant portion of its damage comes from its spinal weaponry, so to use this ship effectively, practice is needed to aim its spinals. It is also not recommended for people who dislike the use of spinals.
 * Its very high hull is able to take many hits from heavy lasers, making it an excellent tanking ship in sieges.
 * It greatly relies on other ships to provide defense against smaller ships.
 * When sieging a base by itself (not recommended) it can be ambushed by a fleet of smaller ships and possibly destroyed. To prevent this, always have some ships at your side that can fight off these ships.
 * It is in your best interests to approach the base from the bottom to ensure that your weapons hit and to prevent most ships from ambushing you.

Trivia

 * Aesthetics wise, most players can agree it is very nice to look at.
 * The Ridgebreaker has components taken from other ships from the same creator: The control panel in bridge is based on that of the Hevnetier, while the spinal weapon barrels come from the Gunslinger.
 * The Ridgebreaker used to cost 130K but there was an economy update which lowered prices.
 * The Ridgebreaker used to have torpedoes before it got nerfed.
