The victory is basically a Apocalypse with an Retruibution prow and a Nova cannon. It was designed for the Bakka fleet. The rules are in BFG Mag 2 and the 2002 Annual. If you can't track either of those down, I will dig mine out and post the rules, as long as the mod's see it ok?
Cheers
Chris

2002 Annual (well worth buying if you can get it)
Victory class battleship. 260 points (can't remember from memory right now)
Regular BB stats with armoured prow.
- Prow Nova cannon F
- P & S Lances 60/4 L / R
- Dorsal Battery 60/6 LFR
HAMMER OF SCARO: replaces the NC for Str 9 torps
There you go: The point cost might be slightly wrong but the rest is correct for sure.
Regards,
Xavi

The stats are in the 2002 BFG Annual and presumably will be in Armada when it is released.... as for bulding one.. just block up a Retribution's torp tubes with green stuff, add a nova cannon instead of the prow ram and use lance pallets instead of the plastic weapon battery ones. Or just buy an Apocalypse model from GW as they have the same model practically, just different stats...

Thx Xavi
If it's pretty much the same as the Apoclypse i think i'll get the Apoclypse as that Aquilla Prow is Damn cool looking with the built in Nova Cannon

The fluff basically says that, it's a more modern Apocalypse. I agree, you should go for the Apocalypse model, as it is much better looking than the Retribution. I wish they would get the Endeavour Light Crusiers re-done, they were so cool...except they NEVER went on sale. I wanted some as well! 
Cheers
Chris

Yeah, it was the moulds, they had trouble making it cast without it twisting, thus looking rather stupid.
Indeed, I am an Imperial player. I have about 3000 points, but only 2000 painted. This includes 2 battleships as well!
Many people here are Imperial players, one that springs to mind is Stormseer...His fleet is fantastic!
Cheers
Chris

*Bows* ...Cheers Chris.. ?
Have a look at my fleet here, Guardian, if you haven't already seen a link... go to the BFG section for a couple of (rather poor) pics of the whole lot and a load of my other work.
And yeah, buy an Apocalypse- great model.. the only reason I gave you the little converting info was because that was how I made mine, 10 months or so ago, when there was no Apocalypse model available...

Man that is some impressive painting
I really like the detail on the lunars and those armageddons
That Retribution looks spot on normally i don't have much of a likeing for them.
I know i'm not one to comment being a newb and all but.....
Well Done
