Onboard thrusters and positioning systems are capable of approximately 0.25G. Each citadel has multiple defensive points mounting lasers, energy weapons and missiles. Each is very heavily armored and mounts ECM, signal masking, damper systems and sandcasters. Much of the interior is given over to storage facilities and hanger space. Each citadel carries a complement of small craft and defense vessels. Each citadel has full internal artificial gravity, and there are spacious crew accommodations and facilities. Each has a distributed main computer, a prime command center and various section command centers.
