==================================================================

Ophidia is not a destroyer nor a light cruiser. It is a militarized civilian ship, or AMC for Armed merchant cruised.

It is an hybrid and an attempt to find emergency solutions in front of growing problems the patriarchat must face.


Splits, knowing teladis expertise in this domain, has hired a lizard team to quickly deisgn a ship able to quickly repels threats from khaa ak and xenons marauders for moderate cost. It is not the first time teladis and splits work together, a suscipions existed about the Manba.

The new ship was designed keeping as much elements possible from the buffalo but removing all containers facilities.the hull has been lengthened and widened, and most free space re-used to host power plants. Teladis succeded to impose a second shield, and forbid on missiles usage of this ships. They want to avoid an ammo room inside a civilian hull unable to fill security cleareance to such threat. For the same reason dokingbay is limited to a single small scout. It is roughly security rules that applied on the teladis AMC Marabout. Avoid at all cost internal catastrophic explosions.

At the end we have a typical split ship ; all for speed, but with a low resiliences (at Splits standards) and a manoeuvrability lesser than other factions ships

The strengh of the Ophidia is to be twice less expensive than a rattlesnake. Ophidia can deal with ships smaller than it, but can hardly stand in fornt of large military ship ; despite it is a split ship its hull is too weak, and its weaponery cant match with a real military ship.

Large engine 5 x L
Large shield 2 x L
Large turret 4
medium turrets 16
No missiles
no Direct fire control for the captain.

This design is blender free.

The constrictor a real militarity cruiser has been considered, but is still wait an agreement from the patriarchat a bugdet agreement to launch the project.
