The Dawn of Retribution is the Crincillin's Superweapon. When fired, it sends out a high-intensity laser that stuns all units around when it lands.

Overview

The Dawn of Retribution can only be fielded by the most experienced Crincillin commanders, for fear that such prized technology could be lost and reverse engineered. Ultimately, this means that all available techs must be brought down from the Armada before a DoR can be built. When built, it has a charge time of approximately 4 minutes before it can be used, so it must be defended while it is preparing itself. Although, what the DoR can do to an enemy base is worth the long wait. A direct blast from the DoR's laser will stun anything in it's impact radius for 10 long seconds. This leaves units and defenses helplessly awaiting a Crincillin army to finish them off!

NOTE: The DoR requires 50 Quantum Energy to function correctly, so be prepared before hand to accept such an Energy consuming burden.

Development

Long ago, long before they had a massive galactic empire, the Crincillin were slaves to a much larger race known as the Mus'pll. The Mus'pll had conquered the then-fledgeling Crincillin with a swift invasion that lasted only a month. Soon, the Crincillin were forced into hard slave labor creating weapons for their conquerors. But in secret, they were stealing parts and supplies to create a weapon which could defeat their captors. After a decade of assembling this structure, it was finished, and the Crincillin figured that an attack on the Mus'pll Command Center would be the first step in fighting them off the planet.

Then, one day, the newly-formed Dawn of Retribution was fired, and all of the Mus'pll forces in a 3-mile radius of the Command Center were helplessly immobilized as the Crincillin slaves moved in and captured the area. When all Mus'pll were around were either captured or killed, the Crincillin used the captured Command Center to find other Centers, and slowly the slaves retook their planet. But they didn't stop there, they commandeered the Mus'pll spacecraft and hunted them out. They began hopping from planet to planet, eradicating the Mus'pll species, and eventually captured their great empire. This was the beginning of the Crincillin Empire, and from there all it did was grow.

Now, the modern DoR was designed in tribute to the weapon which helped them shake off the shackles of slavery.
