Maneuverability: Maneuverability is no. This ship has thickened hulls and boosted shields, and what it gives up to have those is it's maneuverability. Maneuverability is hampered, lowering it to sub-average maneuverability primarily due to the thickness of the hull and the amount of power going to weapons and shields versus maneuvering thrusters.


Description: The newest design fresh from KES Shipyards shipyards, the Extinction-Class. This sucker is not fast, it is not maneuverable, but it sits in the back, the front, or wherever it really feels like sitting and throws shit. It's shields are boosted and hull thickened to withstand increased abuse from enemy forces and not really have to worry about it. It carries a party with it, and enough firepower to require the enemy to wear their brown pants today.


The Extinction-Class Battle Cruiser fits nicely with a Titan-Class Corvette as the two are both heavily armored. In such a situation an Extinction would serve as the flagship while commanding a fleet of Titans and Extinctions for hellish results on the other side of the battle.

Do you want teeth in your fleet? Do you want to win space combat? Here you go.

A couple of points:

1. Yeah that's way too many guns. There's no way youd be able to fit that many weapons on the ship, especially since many are Mass Drivers, and this require ammunition stores.

2. How is the top speed so high when you clearly point out how sluggish it is?

3. You're still short on life-pods, by something like 200 people.

4. Again, manufacturing these things isn't possible for your group right now. Double since this thing would basically eat up all your money and you don't have anywhere to make it.

I'm pretty sure you'd need money and a shipyard to actually build the things.

Do KES even have that at this point? Particularly the latter.

Coro Kevara built this in a cave with a box of scraps.

We currently have a shipyard pending, but I figured I would post these up here so they can be critiqued and edited in the case that our shipyard is approved. If it isn't, then obviously we won't be able to build them, but I'll do the best I can to get a Shipyard since we are the Keywork engineering systems

[Clayton]

Yeah, honest question, does KES even have the facilities to build this?

 

[Bee]

You should know better by now. Don't post profiles for tech you can't produce.

We're working on having a shipyard approved right now. I believe Boli said last night that he would be ruling on our expansion request tonight.

The weapons and escape pods have been adjusted.

And the money?

And you couldn't wait until like, later tonight? If he denies it then this submission serves no point.

 

[Outlander]

I'll give it a proper look tomorrow (raging headache atm), but if your justification for building an orbital shipyard after setting up camp last week is a single three post thread where you form deals with NPCs, then don't hold your breath.

 

[Prudence]

I'm sorry. I jumped the gun posting it, yes. I am hopeful he will approve (though I recognize he very may might not) and if he does I wanted these to already have been cut down to what they should be as I recognize I sometimes am bad about balancing armament and complements. If he denies it, I will do more ICly to bolster justification and apply for another shipyard so I would already have these here.

 

[Outlander]

The point still stands that you're using three posts in a thread you did yourself to justify an expansion that is massive when you factor in what you have and what you have to work with.

I'm sorry, but I'm going to deny the expansion. This just feels like it's rushed and has way too little actual work involved to merit any of what you're asking for.

 

[Prudence]

That's okay. I'll do everything I can to get to a point IC where I can justify it, and try again. We are an engineering company and first and foremost we need a shipyard.

Oh this is getting saved somewhere. Oh yissss.

Anyway, as I can no longer keep my mouth shut about these atrocities in Star Wars technology, you may want to read up on the ranges of weaponry like turbolasers before you put ranges on those guns, kid.

In fact, just stop. Stop putting ranges on the guns. It's just a whole lot easier and I don't have to try to decide whether or not to laugh or cry when reading it.

Done! Thanks for the advice! :)
