Like other Khanid vessels, the '''Sacrilege''' fuses Amarr armor tanking with Caldari missile weapons, providing a rare combination which is difficult to skill into -- Amarr pilots will generally prefer to fly a [[Zealot]] since they will already have strong energy turret skills, while Caldari pilots will need to train up armor tanking. However, a pilot who has strong missile skills but weak gunnery skills and finds themselves in need of an armor tanked damage-dealing ship for fleet ops will find themselves short on options. Thus, the Sacrilege fills a very niche spot in Eve's catalog of ships, along with its siblings the [[Vengeance]] and [[Damnation]].

In terms of hull bonuses, the Sacrilege is most comparable to a [[Cerberus]]. It trades some range, DPS, and speed for tank, signature radius, a 50m3 drone bay, a potential energy neutralizer, and a choice of any damage type. These differences (particularly the tank) make the Sacrilege far more suited to brawling than the Cerberus.

The Sacrilege performs admirably whether flown solo or in a fleet, able to fit either dual reps to tank as much damage as it dishes out or a buffer tank to maximize survivability when primaried. Notably, HAM [[Legion]] fits strongly resemble those for the Sacrilege in much the same way a HM [[Tengu]] represents a more powerful Cerberus, so depending on a player's goals, skills, and budget they may opt to fly a Legion instead.
Due to the ubiquity of brawling armor fleets in wormhole space, the Sacrilege is one of few options for a missile boat suitable for a typical WH fleet, alongside [[Damnation]] and [[Legion]]. It is also perfectly suited to [[Fleet_and_Gang_Types#AHAC_-_Armor-Heavy_Assault_Cruisers|AHAC]] fleets, particularly by offering greater capability for close-range combat than the Zealot while still hitting out to a respectable range with HAMs.
Khanid's engineers have spent months perfecting the Sacrilege's on-board missile launcher optimization systems, making it a very effective assault missile platform. In addition, its supremely advanced capacitor systems make it one of the most dangerous ships in its class.
Developer: Khanid Innovation In an effort to maintain the fragile peace with the old empire through force of deterrence, Khanid Innovation have taken the Maller blueprint and morphed it into a monster. State-of-the-art armor alloys, along with missile systems developed from the most advanced Caldari designs, mean the Sacrilege may be well on its way to becoming the Royal Khanid Navy's flagship cruiser.
