Hey folks. We revealed the models and first pass of bonuses for the two new Alliance Tournament prize ships in CCP Logibro’s recent dev blog, and it’s been great to hear from a lot of players drooling over these so far.
These ships will be given to the top teams of the 14th Alliance Tournament which will be streamed live on our twitch channel this October.
We’re ready to share the full stats of these ships (including a few small tweaks to the bonuses revealed earlier) and start getting proper feedback!
The Caedes is a new Blood Raider Covert Ops frigate that builds upon the strength of their mass-produced Cruor and adds covert cloak functionality. This ship is designed to be able to pick its battles and control its enemies as it slowly drains their life away.
The unique bonuses to Small Laser and cap warfare falloff encourage a short-midrange engagement range with extra flexibility to deal with opponents who will be desperately trying to escape.

The Rabisu combines Blood Raider nosferatu technology with covert cloaking and powerful remote repairers. As the second ever cloaking logistics cruiser (and first for armor repairing) this ship is uniquely powerful for supporting covert armor fleets.
Unlike Amarrian logistics ships that rely on capacitor chains in cooperation with allies, the Rabisu sates its insatiable capacitor appetite by draining other ships (either friend or foe).
