STRENGTHS
- Boarding party: This support ship was designed with the idea in mind to board enemy vessels and either take them over or scuttle them due to the large ammount of boarding torpido's onboard
- missle crawler: a magority of this ships weapons are missle based, ideally putting the support ship in the back line of the action supporting allies from the rear but still being deadly from way back there
- slow as hell: due to the focus on namouras missiles and heavy armor the ships engines strugle to make this go any faster as such they would need a escort of bigger ships
- retreating is a pain: as a last minute modification with little thought the ship was givin a hyperdive class 3 meaning unless they won the battle the hyperdrive would be too slow to spool up in time to save the ship and her crew.
The cruiser is approximately 500 meters long from bow to stern and measures approximately 200 meters at the widest point between the port to starboard engines. It has atmospheric input and output capacity, achieved through a parabolic movement at a reduced angle to avoid overheating and melting its surfaces with friction. The bridge is located in an out-rigging structure on the ship's topside, which is heavily armored from incoming fire. the cruiser houses twenty-two boarding torpidos (with eleven mounted on each side). It has a ventral cargo hold used to carry supplies and vehicles.
A smaller and secure bay is located under the bridge, between the server room and the engine room, in which it used for storing hazardous materials such as fuel, explosives or biohazard samples. Communications are performed through a folding antenna located behind the engines. Four modules placed in front of the bridge, between the dorsal "fins", forms an overlapping sensor network for combat and navigation. The cruiser is also equipped with floodlights.
The cruiser's six massive repulsion engines, provide the vessel with the necessary thrust to keep up and in motion and are powered and cooled through a series of heatsinks that connect them to the ship's main reactor in the engine room. A series of characteristic "fins" visible in different points of the ship, the most prominent of which are located at the bow and in front of the deck, provide the necessary control surface for atmospheric maneuvers while secondary thrusters are used for space operations.
