The community started discussions years ago with the SSD.  All of our conjure help make that a reality.  Now I challenge the community to bring the classic Dreadnought to life.

Now I have some great ideas to make this come to life. Both with the mechanics of the ship and IDEAS for marketing, in which FFG could easily market it.
i first would like to start by one idea.  Multi-factional ship.  Same physical ship packaged in 4 different factions.  Easy and cheap to manufacture for a wave. One ship to produce and 4 different packages.
Now my idea for each faction.  So I normally play Empire.  So I would be forced to purchase the Empire ship.  Now each faction have different upgrades that can work across factions.  So my thought would be after I get my empire ship and I could buy the 3 others and get those cards and still play all 4 or more ships.
Now to the ship. It’s a medium based ship with a high hull point value. I would love to see the classic green turbo laser used on this ship.  Green Dice!  Powerfull turbo lasers that where made for war.  So powerful that dice mitigation does not work. (Brace, redirect, contain) But remember this is an old ship so it’s targeting computers aren’t that good. No accuracies.  25% hits 25% criticals.  Special rule: hits are normal but criticals go directly to hull.
Ship cost 40-60
Hull 10 -  Squadron 1, Engineering 3, Command 3
Brace, Redirect
F 2 Green, Sides 3 Green , Rear 1 Green
Speed 1- 1 click, Speed 2 - 0 clicks
Shields Front 3 Sides 3 Rear 1
I haven’t thought about the upgrade Bar.
 
Ok people, your thoughts!

Ok I’ll concede on the green dice.  Replace them with blue. 
I still think they need to put out the damage and be very mean but are old and janky.

10 hull? Waaay to high. And I’d say this would likely be a small base ship.

If FFG will make a Dreadnought heavy cruiser I promise I will buy at least 15.

Katana Fleet ship title - reduces cost of ship by 10 points.  You must have at least two ships with this title in your fleet.  ALL ships with this title share a single stack of 4 command dials.  This ship may not have any officers.

I ran this fleet against myself using most of the current metas.  It performed so well I was going to run it at Regionals. Only type of list that caused a close match or a near loss was High count Mc30 MSU lists.  Most others where not a real problem as long as I went second.  Going 1st was a close match every time. Winning and loosing.  At the last minute I couldn’t go.. Anyway here she is.
Triple Interdiction (400/400)

Objectives: Fire Lanes, Salvage Run, Station Assault

 - Grand Admiral Thrawn (32)
 - High-Capacity Ion Turbines (8)
 - Disposable Capacitors (3)
 - Taskmaster Grint (5)
 - Projection Experts (6)
= 147 total points

 - Interdictor (3)
 - Targeting Scrambler (5)
 - G7-X Grav Well Projector (2)
 - Commandant Aresko (7)
 - Projection Experts (6)

 - G7-X Grav Well Projector (2)
 - Grav Shift Reroute (2)
 - Disposable Capacitors (3)
 - Wulff Yularen (7)
 - Projection Experts (6)
= 110 total points
Squadrons (30/134):
2x Lambda-class Shuttle (30)
How I played was to go second.  Slowing all opponents ships to a max of 1 the first round and not get into combat until the earliest 3 but the average I found was 4.  
Thrawn has 3 engineering commands so rounds 4-6 are all repairs and Con-fires or Navs
Try in rounds 4-6 to always get double Arc shots. Use shuttles for 2 rounds of fighter defense and token grabs.  I always brought down the main attacker ship and some support ships.
Fire lanes is self explanatory but move the tokens near the space station and the Lambda’s on it.  I won big on this every time. 9-1 average
Salvage Run is a solid token grab. Should be able to grab all tokens and hide behind obstacles. Average combat round starts round 3. I won on this every time. 7-3 average 
Station Assult is the only true one normal people will pick.  Great thing about this objective is that the more they attack a station they are not shooting at the Interdictors; and vice versa.  Block opponents from a clear shot using obstacles and ships.  This was the only one where one or both stations would go down but I would take out there combat ships every time. I would win by points . Expect 6-5 - 8-2  but no real average here could be found.  
This was a super fun list.  I felt that the more I played tested it the better I got running the list and the more aggressive I got with an ISD in attacking the faster I would loose it. One list a the end of the game where your opponent says to themselves; What the *F* just happen???????
