Dahak is the AI/Central Computer of the Fourth Imperium Utu-class Battle Planetoid Dahak. He was built 52,000 years ago and is exactly the size of the Earth's moon. Dahak, along with his normal crew of 250,000 (with enough space for 400,000), wield a frightening array of weaponry and support assets that allow him to engage not just enemy fleets, but entire civilizations.

This does cover a mix of Fourth Imperium and Empire feats, as neither one has feats in every category. Feats marked [/E] in their tag are feats from Empire ships which should be somewhat more capable than him.

Weapons Systems

Missiles

• [High Yield] His high yield gravitonic missiles can destroy planets and damage some stars.

• [Medium Yield/E] Medium yield warheads (anti-matter) are in the gigaton range.

• [Low Yield] Point defense missiles are in the megaton range.

• [Range/Hypermissiles] Hypermissiles (they are fired through hyperspace faster than light and exit at their target) have an effective range of at least 15 light minutes.

• [Range/speed/STL Missiles/E] STL Missiles with a velocity of .78c have an effective range of ~12 light minutes against a Dahak like target.

Energy Weapons

• [Yield]It's energy weapons are capable of killing it's own Battleships.

  • Battleships is capable of withstanding a few Achuultani antimatter warheads before being destroyed.
  • Achuultani antimatter warheads are often in the gigaton range.

• [Range] Effective range should be measured in light seconds with the maximum range being possibly as much as 10.

Maneuverability/Reaction time

• [FTL] Maximum FTL speed of 6!c or 720c

• [STL] Maximum STL speed of .524c

• [STL Acceleration/Maneuverability] Accelerates "instantly" to maximum sublight speed and turns fast enough while doing evasive maneuvers a human with enhanced reaction times views the stars as wheeling around.

  • Fun fact: If Dahak can make one revolution per second people on the outer layers of his hull will experience time ~.1% slower when compared to people in the center due to relativistic effects.

• [Reaction Time] Is said to be able to perceive the time between FTL jumps.

  • These occur every few femtoseconds.

Durability

Dahak's shields are a lot stronger than his hull.

• [Shields] Takes a gravitonic warhead to the shields which causes minor internal damage. As mentioned in the missile section some types of gravitonic warheads can destroy planets.

• [Hull/E] A different Battle Planetoid takes a ten gigaton warhead which makes a 20 kilometer chasm in it's hull.

Support Assets

Military

• Normally carries 200 sublight warships. They carry similar types of weapons to Dahak though are obviously much much weaker.

Personnel and Logistics

• Dahak can enhance humans so that they have three times better reaction time, eight times stronger, considerably more durable, enhanced senses, a life expectancy of ~5793 years and the ability to interface with Imperium technology.

• Has Orbital Industrial Units which build pretty much anything in Dahak's tech base including self replication which allows for geometric expansion of their industrial capacity as long as they have sufficient resources to support it.

  • Within two-ish years builds a total of ~560 sublight warships (while also working on other projects like a planetary shield, a core tap (big power source), orbital defense centers, additional industry and more).

Using Dahak on WhoWouldWin

Dahak is perfectly capable of going up against anything from individual enemy ships all the way up to entire civilizations.

The biggest thing with individual ships or fleets is that you have to find something that matches his stats. Individual ships that can't handle planet destroying hypermissiles teleporting on top of them and fleets which would get endlessly kited by his .52c combat speed need not apply. Also due to how much more durable his shields are than his hull, opponents that have ways of getting around his shields are going to be a lot more successful than those which need to batter through them.

His biggest weakness against entire civilizations is his relatively slow FTL speeds which prevents him from being everywhere at once. This forces him to choose between attacking key enemy systems and defending whatever base of operations he is using. This also lets his opponents mass forces for massive attacks/defensive efforts rather than spread their forces around to defend every key system as they would need to do against a more mobile opponent.
