Description: The Alliance Support Cruiser was not designed to be ship of the line, it was designed for support roles. This is reflected in its hangar bays, that the ship was built around. This gives extra capacity, to hold more fighters or dropships. This in turn meant other sacrifice would be made, it has no major anti capital weapons, other than three long range turbo cannons. This is because it was designed to stay rear of the fleet formation, thus can afford to be slower than other ships and less maneuverable.
The two hanger load outs, meant the ship had two roles it could full fill. The first was planetary invasion role, it have a full battalion on board, and a few squads of special forces. They used the admata class ships to get to planet surface, protected by a couple squadron of red darts. These would be deployed, once the route was clear enough for ships to travel with relative safety.
The second option turned the The Alliance Support Cruiser into a carrier, this give the fleet extra fighters and bombers. This would increase fighter and bomber support to the fleet, with only a few minor alterations to hange bay. This would be removing all the beds, for the troops and putting in equipment to service and repair starfighters.
This design plan gives the vitae alliance, two ships for price of one. Keeping the cost down from fleet action and planetary invasions. This ship can help out on both roles, with a short visit to a dry dock.
Development Thread: na, but will do one if required
Intent: to give vitae alliance a carrier, and planetary assault capabilities
Who Can Use This: vitae alliance
Please advice if I can have more hangers space due to lack of guns.
