== Description ==
The '''''Nimitz''''' is a unique '''[[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]''' that has a major emphasis on [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] and their firepower.
The '''Nimitz''' is a [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]]-based [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] carrying three different fighter variants; the [[Instigator]], the [[Foxfire]] and the [[Interceptor F]]. It has a fairly large amount of health. The '''Nimitz''' has a large range of accurate [[Turrets]] for hunting down small ships or while standing ground to cover a retreat or allow time for [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] pilots to arrive.


== Interior ==
==Description==
The '''Nimitz''' has a large interior spanning 4 decks, and has the largest interior of any ship within the game.
The '''Nimitz''' is a [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]]-based [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] carrying three different fighter variants; the [[Interceptor F]], the [[Foxfire]] and the [[Instigator]].  


'''Cargo Deck'''
'''Nimitz''' has a large range of accurate [[Turrets]] for hunting down small ships or while standing ground to cover a retreat or allow time for [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] pilots to arrive.
==Appearance==


The cargo deck has many large cargo containers in red and green, as well as a crane attached to the ceiling which would supposedly move the containers. 3 Hangars are accessible via the cargo deck, as well as a long corridor which can found next to the entrance to the cargo deck. At the far end of the cargo deck is a window which can be used to view out of the front of the ship.
The Nimitz is a long carrier that has a strong resemblance to the ship its based on; [[wikipedia:USS Nimitz|The Nimitz]] but with a futuristic steampunk like ship design added to it like the addition of ship Thrusters on the front and back of the ship, additional fins jutting out of the ship, along with an unusual carrier runway. There is a text that says '''''"''Death To UNE''"''''' written on a part of the ship, similar to the one found on [[Naglfar]].


'''Upper Fighter Deck'''
The Nimitz has one of the largest interiors in the game, spanning 3 floors, with numerous hallways connecting each one, which can make the player easily lost. The top floor features 3 Rooms. First is the Bridge, which features the pilot seat, along with a holographic globe behind the seat. On the side of the bridge is a holographic table with multiple shapes on it. The second room is an empty room with a table in the middle, The third room is a living quarters full of beds. Two floors down, is where the cargo bay and the hangar can be found, which span the entire underside of the ship. The cargo bay is the largest room in the ship, with multiple containers around the area, and doors that access the Hangars of the fighters found on the side of the Nimitz.


The upper fighter deck holds 3 [[Instigator]] fighters, and 2 [[Foxfire]] fighters. This deck is the largest of all of the decks and has a walkway which can be accessed from in front of the superstructure and has 3 stairs down to the lower fighter deck. There are 2 interconnected entrances into the superstructure, one marked 'BRIDGE' and one marked 'CARGO', which lead to their respective decks, however there is a corridor connecting them. There is a broken component housing panel to the right of the entrances.
'''Fighter Deck'''


'''Lower Fighter Deck'''
The Fighter deck spans almost the entirety of the ship deck, with multiple fighters docked on top of it, and at the side. There are also fighter decks located on the side of the ship, which can be accessed via the cargo bay.
 
==Advantages==
The lower fighter deck holds 3 [[Interceptor F]] fighters. These are identical to the previous [[Interceptor]] fighters, but have been remodelled. Each landing pad has a stairway that connects to the upper fighter deck.
* Carrier itself has accurate [[Turrets]] for fending off small ships.
 
'''Bridge and Crew Habitation'''
 
You can get to the bridge in several ways. There is a teleporter immediately at the entrance to the ship which leads directly to the pilot seat. There is also a large hallway leading from the upper fighter deck which connects to the main corridor area. The Bridge has a large circular hologram, which users can walk around to get to the pilot seat. There is also a holographic table and the ship's gravity generator. Upon entering the bridge, turning right will lead you to the crew habitation area. This has a table for the crew as well as 8 beds for the crew and fighter pilots.
 
== Advantages ==
* Balanced firepower and accuracy in both the [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] itself and its [[:category:Fighters|Fighters.]]
* High Health.
* Accurate [[Turrets]].
*Variety of powerful [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
*Variety of powerful [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
*Large amount of powerful [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] gives it incredible damage potential, especially if they are AI Fighters.
*Large amount of powerful [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] gives it incredible damage potential.
*Extremely high acceleration for it's class.
*Extremely high acceleration for it's class.
 
*It has an explosion radius of 1250, rivaling that of [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capital]] nukes and can '''destroy full health [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]]'''.
== Disadvantages ==
*Has the highest Fighter [[Galaxy Slang|DPS]] of any [[Build Menu|BM]] Carriers at a monstrous {{#cargo_query:tables=ShipData|fields=ShipData.fighter_spinal_dps|where=ShipData._pageName = 'Nimitz'}}.
* Large blind spots near the sides and under the ship.
==Disadvantages==
* Not much in firepower against larger [[Ships]] like [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]].
*Large blind spots near the sides and under the ship.
* No [[Spinals]].
*Almost defenseless without its fighters against capital ships or swarms.
* Sacrifices firepower for [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
*Sacrifices firepower for [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
* Not very good at [[Sieging]] or attacking other [[ships]] without teammates to pilot the [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
*VERY high cost to equip all fighters with AI pilots, costing 3250 robux in total without VIP.
* The amount of [[Fighters]] might be unnecessary as you need enough players to pilot them.
*It's extremely powerful nuke will be a threat to your own fleet/team when your ship is destroyed.
* Unused fighters are exposed to fire from enemies, allowing them to be destroyed before taking off.
==Strategy==
* Very laggy due to the very huge and detailed interior.
*Do not use this ship alone. If you do so, travel with a heavy escort that you can trust, as your low health will catch up to you if you are [[Galaxy Slang|Dived]].
* Unable to fire all [[Turrets]] at once, as a result of a turret being partially inside the ship (and the line of sight for that turret is blocked also).
*Make sure you use the [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] against the same target.
* VERY expensive at over half a million.
*The runway can be used to easily land and regroup [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] without recalling them, or for a [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] to flee from a small ship.
*Currently not on the build menu, due to lag issues causing from it, because of this, you can't get it back if destroyed while it is not on the build menu.
*Use your high accuracy [[Turrets]] to defend yourself and your [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] from smaller ships.
 
*It can be used as a support [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] in sieges by carrying [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] to distract enemy [[Starbase]]s, as well as providing great support from its large fighter swarm.
== Strategy ==
*[[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] can support and protect your carrier from blind spots.
* Make sure your team uses the [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] against the same target.
* The runway can be used to easily land and regroup [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] without recalling them, or for a [[:Category:Fighters|Fighter]] to flee from a small ship, as the '''Nimitz''' destroys the other ship.
* Use your high accuracy [[Turrets]] to defend yourself and your [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] from smaller ships.
* Whatever you do, do '''''not''''' turn around or lean forward with this ship, as you will throw the pilots off if they are not in a seat.
* [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] can block spinals and protect your carrier from blind spots.
*Pre-organize a group of players large enough to utilize most of the fighters on the Nimitz prior to spawning it, such as over a discord call or community group. A coordinated team gathered into the Nimitz fighters can create a swarm capable of demolishing virtually any opponent, even [[Ships]] like [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] and [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capitals.]]

*Do not lose it, or you will not be able to get it back due to being offsale (aside from refunds).
*Warp in, release all your fighters and warp out as soon as you can to your nearest or strongest Starbase.
 
*If you think your ship will be destroyed, Warp your ship away as '''far as possible''' from your own fleet or starbase as the nuke has a whopping radius of 12,500 studs, and if possible, you can warp to the enemy's fleet or starbase to bring the nuke there instead.
