Notes:

Cloak: While cloaked the Avenger causes a +15 Difficulty to detect it. As a side effect of the active cloak the Avenger suffers a -1D penalty to its sensors rolls and is unable to fire its weapon. Firing the Hellfire Spout deactivates the cloak. Tracking weapons also lose their target lock on the Avenger.

Description: The Ilwrath Avenger is the result of technology that the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za bestowed upon the once newly conquered, technologically simple Ilwrath. Above all, the Ilwrath delight in tormenting their victims and this cruelty has carried over to how they wage war. Stealth technology is employed so widely by the Ilwrath armed forces that it has become synonymous with their species. Due to the ship's stealth capabilities, combat involving an Avenger will more often than not play out like a game of cat and mouse. It is because of this stealth capability that, according to Commander Hayes, the Avenger was as deadly a threat as the Androsynth Guardian to the Alliance deep-space patrols.

Propulsion

The Avenger turns and accelerates swiftly, but its top speed is fairly low. This limitation is considered the ship's Achilles' heel.

Primary Armament

The primary weapon of the Avenger is a short range flamethrower which has been dubbed the "Hellfire Spout". The Avenger's rapid rate of energy recovery allows it to maintain a nearly constant stream of flame over a length of time.

Secondary Armament

All Avenger craft come equipped with a cloaking device. Homing weapon systems and subsidiary craft of all shapes and sizes are unable to follow a cloaked Avenger. However, the Ilwrath cloak is not perfect — some of the Avenger's own scanning instruments do not function properly while the cloaking device is active. In addition to that, hostile craft will retain some awareness of the Avenger's approximate position. The Hellfire Spout and cloaking device cannot function at the same time. The Avenger's cloak will shut off automatically when the weapon is activated. If stealth is broken in this way, the Avenger will also orient itself towards the enemy ship's position regardless of where the Avenger was facing before.
