The Huy Braseal class Bombardment Cruiser is a heavy warship.
- It is a military ship and a Bombardment Cruiser.
Description (Specifications)[edit]
It is a vessel with 4-G and J-4 performance with a streamlined wedge hull. This is a streamlined needle wedge vessel.
- It carries heavy armament and a powerful defensive suite. Carrying very heavy armor, and good screens with back ups, and an impressive weapons load, this class sacrifices speed and agility. It is almost the size and match for some enemy battle cruisers. These attributes are not considered mission critical when you spend most of your time hanging in a stable orbit dropping ordinance from the forty nuclear weapons bays.
- It ordinarily carries several subcraft, ship's vehicles, and drones when needed. Its nineteen assault shuttles provide recovery for the reinforced company of marines.
- It has a 787 sophont crew and 153 marines.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
It serves in the 2932nd AssaultRon of the 293rd Fleet. They are named in honor of the fearsome space marines which come from the legendary units on Huy Braseal (world).
Late in development the prototype was being tested and only achieved 3Gs during space trials. It had factor 15 armor and other changes and options. An admiral on the review panel felt that 3Gs was not enough, if this ship was to operate in planetary gravity wells. He insisted that the drives be upgraded to 4Gs, the redesign cost quite a bit of money and delayed deployment dramatically. Armor had to be shed and certain features changed to accommodate the larger drives which require more crew to maintain and operate. The marines' drop capsules and launchers were lost, the low watch was reduced to 20 low berths, and the back up model 9 computer inexplicably lost its shielded fiber optical EMP resistant systems to make room for the larger drives. A fifty ton cargo bay is retained, often filled with marine grav vehicles.
