Ignis Purgatio

Ignis Purgatio

 Ignis Purgatio — American • Premium • Tier VI • Battleship.

Originally designed for a Naval mission of the purpose now long forgotten, Ignis Purgatio was lost during the Horus Heresy. After missing for several millennia, the ship was rediscovered on one of the Frontier worlds in the Jericho Reach. Though clearly a warship, it was put to use as a transport by its new, uncouth masters who failed to recognize its true potential. After undergoing intensive repairs and cleansing its quarters of its previous inhabitants, Ignis Purgatio was eventually returned to Imperial Navy service and, since then, it has become an essential component of Battlefleet Solar. Once again, it acts as a fearsome guard dog for humanity and, by proxy, the Emperor Himself.

Ignis Purgatio was temporarily released in the store as part of the Warhammer 40k collaboration on June 22nd, 2020.

Player Opinion

Battleship - Ignis Purgatio

Pros:

• Decent speed, impressive handling and good ergonomics for a dreadnought.
• Decent main battery reload time.
• Powerful, hard-hitting 410mm guns with fairly good accuracy, penetration and damage on both AP and HE shells.
• Good rudder shift time.
• Good HP pool.
• Access to the Main Battery Reload Boosterconsumable.

Cons:

• Armor is quite weak and citadel is quite vulnerable, though this can be mitigated by angling and good positioning.
• Anti-aircraft suite is subpar, with most of her AA damage being concentrated at medium range.
• Despite the guns being rather accurate, the dispersion itself is sometimes wonky at long range.
• Rudder often gets knocked out by near misses or when dodging because of the weak armor protecting her rudder.
