The design was obtained by a frigate sent to investigate a deep space signal that turned out to be the wreck of a Terran destroyer. Searching the debris field revealed one computer core with the ship plans under the entry 'Yamato', but not much else. Analysis suggests a capacity for prolonged incursions into enemy territory, far away from supply lines. To improve on this strength, new weapons from the DSI program were added, but also the latest in defense and shield technology. The Yamato is heavily armed and armored when compared to the Taranis, yet the two ships are identical in most aspects, which makes the Taranis look just like a striped down version. Secondary engines were also included to increase robustness during battle while drone bay capacity was sacrificed for weapon support systems and reinforced structure.</t> <t id="201">Hercules-M</t> <t id="202">The Hercules freighter is based on a designed acquired recently as a response to an increasing need for a multi-role armed transport. With the intensification of pirate raids more and more escort ships were needed to protect transport and mining operations. To counteract this trend it was decided to create a heavily armed freighter / mining ship, able to operate on it's own and defend itself if necessary or even act as an escort for traditional convoy runs. The Hercules has several modifications over the original design including a universal cargo hold, new weapons from the Denied Space Initiative program, reinforced shields and secondary engines. The increased protection and higher speed allow the ship to hold its own against most attackers or to escape the more powerful and slower variety. The Hercules-M variant is specialized for mining.</t> <t id="301">Hercules-T</t> <t id="302">The Hercules freighter is based on a designed acquired recently as a response to an increasing need for a multi-role armed transport.

By modifying the aging mining laser and adding a secondary beam, the program came up with an instant hit, high accuracy weapon, which is excellent against agile ships. The technology is secret but it is believed that the laser beam acts like a catalyst for a nuclear beam and triggers a localised nuclear reaction at resistance points. The defense laser can also be used for attack, but that requires the ship to be engaged in knife range fighting in which case it is a matter of debate if the ship is attacking or defending itself. Unfortunately, retrofitting existing ships and stations with this weapon is almost impossible as it requires a complete redesign and replacement of internal layout and weapon support systems.</t> <t id="5201">Attack Laser Turret</t> <t id="5202">This is another weapon developed through the Denied Space Initiative program. In essence it is just an overpowered defense laser, with a bigger range and greater damage, all of which are possible because the existing technology is easy to scale, at least up to a point. As an added bonus, the increased power allows for a bigger, less localised, nuclear reaction which has an area effect damage. This instant hit weapon is mounted on a medium turret which is unsuited to track fast moving targets, so it's main purpose is to be a heavy hitter against capital ships and stations. The attack laser can also be used for defense, but some would argue that firing at long range on a ship that hasn't had the chance to open fire is not really a defense maneuver.</t> <t id="5301">Battle Laser Turret</t> <t id="5302">The battle laser is the next step in military laser technology. Larger and more powerful than the attack laser, it uses a multi phasic beam for increased damage and range and it was designed as a solution against static defenses. Because of its low tracking speed and high recycle time, this weapon is largely ineffective against mobile or weak targets, but it can soften up or even destroy slow moving and dangerous foes without fear of retaliation. Very high power consumption makes the weapon unsuited for most ships, unless modifications are made to draw that power directly from the ships engines. This makes the weapon a rarity and only ships with very large engines can mount and power it.</t> </page> </language>
