Aegis Avenger Titan: the other classic starter ship

Q: What is the Aegis Avenger Titan?

The Aegis Avenger Titan is a small one-person multi-role spacecraft manufactured in-fiction by Aegis Dynamics. It is one of the classic starter ships in Star Citizen, balancing 8 SCU of cargo capacity, a Size 4 nose-mounted ballistic gatling plus a pair of Size 3 wing guns, and a rear cargo ramp large enough to fit a small ground vehicle. The Avenger Titan Starter Pack costs $70 USD on the RSI store.

Q: How much does the Avenger Titan cost?

The Avenger Titan Starter Pack on RSI is $70 USD (includes the ship, 10,000 UEC, and full game access). Standalone the Avenger Titan is around $60 on the Pledge Store. Paste STAR-JTV7-FXLR at signup and the new account also gets 50,000 UEC on top, since the Starter Pack clears the $40 minimum easily.

Q: Is the Avenger Titan better than the Aurora Mk II?

The Avenger Titan is bigger, slightly heavier, with better firepower (Size 4 nose gun versus the Aurora's 4 Size 2 guns) and the same base 8 SCU cargo as a fully-modular Aurora Mk II. The Aurora Mk II is more agile, cheaper ($60 vs $70 Starter Pack), and includes module flexibility. Better depends on whether you prefer firepower and built-in ramp (Avenger Titan) or agility and modular flexibility (Aurora Mk II).

Q: What weapons does the Avenger Titan have?

The Avenger Titan ships with a Size 4 nose-mounted ballistic gatling gun (the biggest single gun on any starter ship), plus a pair of Size 3 guns under the wings, plus two Size 3 missile racks carrying four Size 2 Ignite II Infrared missiles total. Net: heavier hitting per shot than the Aurora Mk II at the cost of fewer total projectiles.

Q: Which Starter Pack contains the Avenger Titan?

The Avenger Titan is the ship in the Avenger Titan Starter Pack at $70 USD (includes the ship, 10,000 UEC, full game access). It is not part of the named Starter Pack lineup (Citizen, Salvager, Miner, Duelist, Hauler, Outsider, Privateer); it is a separate package option in the same price tier as the Salvager and Miner ($75).

The Avenger Titan is the ship most experienced SC players nudge new pilots toward, especially if they want a bit more punch and cargo than the Aurora Mk II offers. It has been a go-to multi-role starter since before the Aurora Mk II existed. Here's the full breakdown and how it actually compares.

What the Avenger Titan actually is

The Aegis Avenger Titan is a single-seat multi-role spacecraft from the in-fiction manufacturer Aegis Dynamics. It is bigger and heavier than the Aurora Mk II, with significantly larger firepower (a Size 4 nose-mounted ballistic gatling) and a rear cargo ramp that can fit a small ground vehicle. The Avenger Titan Starter Pack on RSI is $70 USD and qualifies for the 50,000 UEC referral bonus.

Design and feel

The Avenger Titan is a classic Aegis Dynamics design: militaristic lines, fixed wings, a stub-nose cockpit with a flat top, and a rear cargo bay that visibly opens with a ramp. The visual silhouette is closer to a small gunship than a sleek fighter. In the cockpit you sit forward and high, with a wraparound view that beats the Aurora Mk II for ground-target awareness.

In flight, the Titan handles like a heavier ship. Turn rate is slower than the Aurora Mk II, but acceleration is decent and the larger fixed wings give it good atmospheric stability. The Size 4 nose gun is the differentiator: it tears through unshielded targets and chews shields fast. The trade-off is your engagement range; the Titan rewards a player who can keep the nose pointed at the target.

Avenger Titan vs Aurora Mk II

This is the comparison most new players actually want. They're both starter-tier multi-role ships at similar price points. Here's the side-by-side.

	Avenger Titan	Aurora Mk II
Starter Pack price	$70 (Avenger Titan SP)	$60 (Citizen Starter Pack)
Standalone	~$60	~$48
Cargo (base)	8 SCU (+ 8,000 μSCU)	2 SCU (8 SCU with TS Module +$12)
Primary gun	1 × Size 4 nose	4 × Size 2 wing
Wing guns	2 × Size 3	(see above, no separate wing guns)
Missiles	4 × Size 2	8 × Size 1 (+8 more with DM Module)
Ramp for ground vehicle	Yes, fits 1 PTV	No
Interior	Bed + ejectable seat	Bed
Handling	Heavier, slower turn, stable	Lighter, more agile
Modular system	No	Yes (TS Cargo $12, DM Combat $12)
Net: Avenger Titan is the heavier-hitting, cargo-ready out-of-the-box ship. Aurora Mk II is more agile, cheaper to start, and modular.

Who the Avenger Titan is for

Good fit if

You want cargo hauling capability from day one, no module purchase needed
You like the idea of one big nose gun versus multiple small ones
You want to do bounty hunting on light targets right away
You plan to use a ground vehicle for surface mining or ground missions
You're OK paying $10 more for a heavier ship out of the gate

Look elsewhere if

You want the cheapest entry to SC ($60 Citizen Starter Pack is $10 less)
You prefer agile dogfighting (look at the Anvil Arrow in the Duelist pack)
You like modular flexibility (Aurora Mk II is the answer)
You want serious cargo (Cutlass Black in the Privateer pack carries more)

What to spend the 50,000 UEC referral bonus on for an Avenger Titan pilot

The Avenger Titan is more capable out of the box than the Aurora, so you can lean a bit more of your starting UEC into ship components and less into character gear (compared to an Aurora pilot who needs every armor and weapon advantage early).

Medium armour set, ~16,000 to 22,000 UEC.
Primary weapon + magazines, ~7,000 to 12,000 UEC.
Sidearm + multi-tool + medical pens + food, ~5,000 UEC.
Ship-component upgrade (better shield or weapon mount), ~8,000 to 15,000 UEC. The Titan's Size 4 nose gun benefits noticeably from upgraded power+cooler.

Where you'd CCU to from here

The Avenger Titan is a long-loved ship and players often keep it as a fleet member even after they own bigger ships. Common upgrade paths via CCU (Cross-Chassis Upgrade):

Avenger Titan Renegade, variant with more military loadout. Available as a CCU step.
Drake Cutlass Black, bigger multi-role with multi-seat option. ~$110 standalone.
Anvil Hornet F7C-S Ghost, stealth-focused light fighter for combat specialists.
MISC Freelancer, cargo-focused upgrade, ~$110 standalone. Bigger hold than the Titan.

For CCU mechanics, see the Game Packages page.

Aurora Mk II or Avenger Titan? My take

If you're brand new to Star Citizen and you don't know what you'll end up doing, the Aurora Mk II at $60 is the right default. Cheaper, modular, more agile while you learn flight controls. Switch to Avenger Titan thinking once you know you want cargo and combat without paying for ship modules separately.

If you've watched SC gameplay videos and you already know you like the look of a small gunship with cargo space, the Avenger Titan at $70 is the better starter for you. The Size 4 nose gun is genuinely satisfying.

Either ship qualifies for the 50,000 UEC bonus. Paste the code at signup before picking your Game Package.
