[*]
[SIZE=9pt]SG-ED-02 ‘Daedalus’ Reactor[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Strengths:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]No Fly Zone - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]The Twins as ships are entirely escort vessels, ones so capable in capacity that anywhere within their range could easily be considered a ‘No Fly Zone’ for anything Cybele wouldn’t approve of. Because of this, these two ships are highly regarded as the end all be all of escort vessels when faced with the smaller side of space combat.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]Ghost Ship -[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]To be the silent, watchful protectors of their master; The Twins are ships loaded with stealth capabilities that allow them to follow and watch. To observe, to wait, and then execute when give their orders. In truth, the only time they should ever be seen is when directly engaged in destruction of their enemy.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]Hackerman -[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Amplified by the massive AI aboard The Technicolor Beat, each of The Twins are able to commit digital atrocities across the board, each a powerful and violent arm for use against the enemy. From taking down shields, to slamming enemy ships into one another, Cybele utilizes these two and their stealth systems to create the ultimate defensive grid around her host. This however does come with its own weaknesses and limitations, ranging from limited operative range of 10km to a direct shut down should commands ever cease.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Weaknesses:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Fly Swatter - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Because of the massive focus on anti starfighter capabilities, combat weapons focuses on anything bigger than a 100 meter corvette begins to suffer drastically. While it may be assumed that a larger vessel wouldn’t be able to close the distance between The Twins and their own fleet; the possibility always stands and is easily one of the greatest weaknesses they ships have.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]Apple Doesn’t Fall Far From The Tree - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Just as the main fleet vessel, The Twins are unable to win in so much as the slightest sprint. In truth, they only need to meet the speed of their host lord; but faced down against other vessels of its size it is simply unable to keep up in any capacity.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]I Can’t Do That, Dave -[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Although some may consider having no human crewmembers as a valid and genuine strength, at the end of the day this opens up the vessel to a number of holes one wouldn’t otherwise have. One, the vulnerability to be counter hacked by skilled vessels, AI, or slicers. Two being the obvious electronic implications.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]We Didn’t Plan For This? - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]As stated in the last weakness, with a fully automated vessel comes the dangers of ionic discharges and electromagnetic pulses. While a series of deployable cap drains are equipped to each ship to make up for this glaring weakness, that is not to say they are out of the proverbial waters. Should one get a lucky shot, or out pace the relatively low cap drain capacity either of the ships has, each are fully open to the wounds their enemies might seek to deliver.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]Can You Hear Me Now? - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]To make room for the cloaking systems, additional weaponry, and more; any automated computer systems were minimized. Compared to the standard variant of the Time-Rift vessel, these ships are entirely dumbed down. To make up for this, each is equipped with massive receiving modules that allow for Cybele, The Technicolor Beat’s AI, to actively control all of them; but do to the massive amounts of data required to control such massive ships and all its systems, the range to do so is extremely low to still be combat effective. Should either of the vessels move any further than 10km away from the main vessel, they will cease to receive new orders besides basic move commands; and past 50km, even those will cease to work. This creates a need for the vessels to be nearly in contact with the ‘flagship’ at all times, and are unable to perform tactile or evasive maneuvers should the need ever arise. Only queued commands sent by Cybele would be accepted, and once those are finished there would be no further commands, leaving each of the vessels stranded and awaiting their next order.[/SIZE]
[*]
[SIZE=9pt]Two-Of-A-Kind - [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Because of the complexity of the vessels, and the fact their design has now been lost to The Time Foundry’s new controllers, these can not be reproduced. While repairing them is always an option, should one ever fall into a state of total destruction, or even separated from the main fleet, there would be absolutely no way to reproduce them. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Description: [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]--OVERVIEW--[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]The Twins are ships made entirely to compliment The Technicolor Beat, a ship itself that strikes nightmares into the various naval captains who roam the galactic skies. With cloaking capabilities on par with the best of ships, and no human crew to deal with logistics; there is overall an extremely effective and sharp electronically powered sword in the naval combat playing field found in both of these vessels.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]--DESIGN--[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Although the original design was created by The Primeval’s first incarnation, this reiteration of the tried and true design was implemented by The Slave himself. Altering much of the standard protocols and design with Cybele’s help, he in turn helped create two of the most powerful escort vessels to ever grace this side of space; all with the help of The Sith Empire to offer their shipyards, factories, and funds. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]With no need to implement crew quarters, or wasted space for any such basic logistics for that matter, only a few tight corridors exist in the entirety of the kilometer long ship. These are used for repair when the rare occasion occurs that a human technician is ever required to repair something in the ship, but also the various self repairing robots used to make sure the ship’s stay in peak operating capacity at all times. Still, while these are strictly meant for maintenance protocols, should a human slicer ever enter them they would find almost uninhibited access to many of the ship's systems through a number of slice ports littered through many of the internal systems.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Still, despite the obvious weakness of unprotected internal ports, Cybele runs a tight ship in regards to what goes in and out of the digital networks associated between the vessels. While many may consider hacking the systems to be the end all be all of the vessels lives, to do so involves not only overcoming the standard systems already designed into the electronic warfare suite, but in turn the extremely powerful and adaptive mechanisms of the AXIOS AI that looks over all the systems at once. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]In addition, a number of cloaking systems has been installed and used to replace the standard ‘mainframes’ of the massive vessel. These systems are often the strongest in their category, but each suffer from the double blind effect often seen within cloaked vessels; however, do there being no actual human crew the weakness itself is nearly null and void. Effectively, this allows for extremely powerful cloaking systems to be installed with an almost complete ignorance to their otherwise devastating side effect.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Lastly, to power all these energy intensive devices requires a duplicate reactor used on The Technicolor Beat as well. Experimental reactors known as Zero Point Generators, however each of the Twins is only holding one by themselves. Should these ever be damaged, the entire vessel will cease to exist in a space of time so small, it is often considered theoretical by many modern physicists. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]--ARMAMENT--[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]To better complement their main host vessel, each of The Twins are armed with a number of fast mounted point defense systems that are perfected fit for laying out massive amounts of short range fire against various starfighters. Effectively able to create literal walls of blaster bolts in space, the self explained ‘No Fly Zone’ is an extremely dangerous area around each of the vessels it is highly recommended not to ever attempt to intrude on without the proper escorts or vessels. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]In addition, each of The Twins is given identical electronic suites that are fully capable to intrude on the operating system of both dated and modern ships of all kinds. From starfighters and their fleets, to other battlecruisers themselves; each vessel is a monument to electronic warfare in every standard. Since each suite could easily be considered a force multiplier with Cybele’s massive computing power, these ships are capable of doing untold amounts of damage to the sensitive inner workings of anything that comes within range of their prowess.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Lastly, should the various guns, bombs, and other anti starfighter weapons fail to perform; a final three squadrons of Shadow Droids are utilized in full effect to defend their parent vessel and each other. The pure skill and crazy reaction of each ship creates a perfect balance between organic and electronic that allows for the greatest assortment tactile responses one or the other would never consider; with the weapons and capacity to perform in turn.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]--SUPPORT SYSTEMS--[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Although not outfitted with anything especially crazy in regards to direct support systems, as both vessels are heavily reliant on the main systems from their host ship, each vessel is equipped with a number of extracurricular systems that allow for a number of stealth based approaches one may not consider without said capacity to do so.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]First, each vessel is able to completely cloak; from both sensors and more. Although a Crystal grav field trap would normally be able to track them despite this, the gravity modulators located on each allow this to be overcome to become nearly invisible to everything but The Force itself. Even then, the lack of a living entity board the vessels make them less than noticeable to anything less than very skilled members of the force. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Additionally, with the Other Drive installed on both vessels; there is yet another way to traverse hyperplanes and more with relative ease and lack of attention. Without being able to track where the vessels go utilizing standard means, each are able to disappear within an other jumps moment; creating the perfect hit and run monoliths this side of wild space. Even so, the dangers involved with the system create a serious chance of losing the massive investment to build any of the vessels, but one risk deemed worth it for the sake of instant assaults on any fleet in any area.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]--SUMMARY--[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]The Twins are extremely advanced ships based on a traditional design, but even despite that standard incarnation they differentiate themselves even then by their extreme prowess in defense, escorting, and electronic warfare against any and all enemies that approach. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Overall, horrifying vessels meant for nothing more than complete shutdown of entire vicinities of space and the ability to get there without being seen. [/SIZE]
