Shock Ships: The Progen Second Generation Fleet
Posted: Fri Feb 26, 2010 12:11 pm
Now that i have had spring break, I've been hard at work fixing a few problems I had. Now, for the next unveiled part of my fleet.
Backstory Soon!
The Fleet as it stands:
Aron Class Corvette:
Designed around the powerful Photon energy cannon she carries, the Aron is a true capital killer. The new energy systems have given this bird just enough power to hold a few other weapons besides just her main cannon. Deadly on her own, she is nearly unstoppable in groups. Usually used to compliment a group.
Eari Class Corvette:
Built for hit and run, the large wall of fire put out by this ship can bind up any point defense. Usually used in groups of 3-4, this ship is used for recon or patrols.
Emith Class Corvette:
The smallest support craft available, the Emith carries dual EMP torp. launchers as her main weapon. Used in task forces to help contain large ships by disabling offensive and defensive power for a period of time.
Thes Class Frigate:
The newest ship to roll off of the assembly lines, the Thes is the only ship in active service using the new broad-wing coolant system instead of the older multi-wing system. This coupled with the huge amount of Stabilized Cyanon it contains allows the Thes to hold a huge amount of firepower for its size.
Trieb Class Frigate:
Mainly used for long distance bombardment, the Trieb holds more heavy firepower in place of its smaller close-range weaponry.
Leas Class Frigate:
Although destroyer sized, the Leas is the last remaining ship of the Progen's first fleet. Through the years, time and time again, this ship has proven itself in battle. Through the last refitting, it's energy systems, shield and coolant systems, and its armor have been upgraded. This ship has been reclassified from a full assault role to a support-assault role. The healing pods are able to heal a fleet in record time, keeping ships in the field for much longer periods of time. Don't expect to see this ship disappear any time soon.
Vordath Class Destroyer:
The destroyer version of the Aron, the Vordath packs a much heavier punch in it's main cannon. After firing it's main weapon, the support weapons provide a wall of lead by which the Vordath can escape. Although unstoppable when faced from the front, if it is ever flanked, it is doomed.
Ackone Class Destroyer:
The heaviest of the Destroyer class ships, the Ackone is usually used for extended bombardment and can be used both alone, or in groups. This ship packs a heavy punch and can follow through with it's broadside afterward.
Rakris Class Destroyer:
Used in patrols or fast attacks, the Rakris doesn't deliver a huge hit, but in groups will be very deadly.
Etytan Class Destroyer:
Used in conjunction with the Rakris, the Etytan puts out a large amount of punishing fire. this ship is used to take out multiple smaller targets.
