Basic Ship Characteristics[edit]

Following the Imperial Navy and IISS Universal Ship Profile and data, additional information is presented in the format shown here. The small craft factor indicates the number of squadrons (...of ten subcraft) carried on the ship. Tonnage on the universal ship profile is shown in kilotons (...thousands of tons) where necessary. [1]

Basic Ship Characteristics [2]
No. Category Remarks
1. Tonnage / Hull 95,000 tons.
  • It is a fully streamlined, needle/wedge structure hull.
2. Crew 768 crew.
3. Performance Propulsion:
  • Jump-2
  • 3-G acceleration
  • Power Plant-4
  • 3,800-EPs
  • Agility-2

They are capable of 3G acceleration and have 2-Agility. These ships carry enough internal fuel for a single Jump-2. They can carry a Jump-2 drop tank, otherwise they must be tended by fleet tankers for extended range operations.

  • They are fitted with a pair of model 5 fib computers.
5. Hardpoints x950 hardpoints.
6. Armament The normal weapons fit-out for it is:
  • They have x80 triple beam laser turrets in eight batteries.
  • x80 plasma gun turrets firing in a point defense role.
  • The best spinal particle accelerator available at this technology level.
  • x70 large missile bays for offense.
7. Defenses For defense the hull has the heaviest armor available at this technology level to resist surface strikes.
  • They also carry 45 triple sand caster turrets in nine batteries.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

This design serves with the Firstworlds fleet. This design is a product of the orbital boatyards of Tal Varisa, and represent one of the most dangerous battle lines anywhere in this region of space. Almost no other power can stand against their firepower and overwhelming numbers. In Service: 100.

Distant Fringe Vessels[edit]

The Distant Fringe is said to be a far spinward-rimward area inhabited by colonists and refugees originating on Terra. The region is extremely isolated, separated from the rest of Charted Space by vast, almost uncrossable rifts that were once broached by a system of calibration Points and the use of tankers. Those few academics within Charted Space who have found references to the Distant Fringe regard it as little more than a tall tale. Likewise, many of the inhabitants of the Distant Fringe believe the existence of Charted Space to be mythical.[3]

Vessels originating within the Distant Fringe are very rarely encountered outside of the region. However, misjumps do occur and anomalies with bizarre spacetime and Jumpspace effects exist: as such, craft of this type are not entirely unknown within Charted Space.[4]

Class Naming Practice/s & Peculiarities[edit]

Each vessel within the class is named by the government of the state that produces it. They generally draw on traditional naming protocols and it is not uncommon for a historical class name to be reused.

  • Individual vessels within the class are issued specific serial numbers and transponder codes.
  • Naming a ship is considered a serious affair and is generally accompanied by a traditional ceremony, usually pouring a local beverage over the bows of the craft. Starfarers tend to be superstitious folk and a ship with a frivolous name is considered "unlucky".

Selected Variant Types & Classes[edit]
