Bastion of Hope(working title)

[Jaxton Ravos]

​

Image Source: LMorse of Deviantart
Affiliation: Levantine Sanctum
Manufacturer: Levantine Sanctum, Silk(?)
Model: Uhhh . . . the Dea- Life Star
Modularity: Hanger Loadout?
Production: Unique
Material: With how many posts are needed for a Flagship we could put a section of the thread to dedicate to mining whatever material we needed. I don't think stealth will really be an option here, but getting something stronger than a durasteel hull isn't a bad idea. Impervium suggested by [member="Seydon of Arda"]. Strongest material we can use that -isn't- restricted, and I feel somewhat silly putting Cortosis/phik on a ship, and Beskar isn't happening.
Classification: Mobile Command Base

Length: 3000m (Max 5000m)
Width: 3000m (Max 4000m)
Height: 3000m (Limiting factor, max 3000m)

Armament:
Mostly defense weaponry I'd assume. Lighter Turbolaser load. Some Ion Cannons here and there. Maybe some special armaments here and there.

Hangar: Primarily transports/dropships. Can fit a small amount(2-4 maybe) of larger vessels(Up to frigate?) if necessary. I really really like the idea of us having some Crickets to use to help with construction, either with refitting the Bastion or devastated worlds. Could get contract with MandalMotors during dev thread.

A continuation of this thread with a template at the top. Because I like templates at the top. Also, because my "building things" urge is growing.

When suggesting things to add into the ship, remember that we need a 400 post dev thread to finish this baby. That thread doesn't need to be in one place, one setting, one month, one anything. We can have people split off and handle different areas of the ship, find this part or that part, bring this or that together, and do whatever to get the ship going. So if you want to include super-cool technology X into the mix, whether or not it's subbed yet we should spring for it and use that as stuff to do and fill up posts with. I might contact the Hegemonic Automation guy and see if he can get some droid-piloted dropships, maybe even a new Droid Brain to work with them. If I can put that in the thread and do 10-20 posts with him that's a decent chunk taken care of.

We're also going to need to consider perhaps an overall Impervium coating for the hulling. Devilishly expensive, granted, but this is a one-off project.

Impervium note added, added GT-F0 boarding droids as per skype discussion.

Not sure I'm really qualified to help with anything on this project, but I can try.

 

[Callista Gseran]

I'll help if you like, though my skills are mostly with Healing abilities and the like.

I'd like to whip up a focused proof of concept draft based on this and our other discussions. Chloe and Jorus have hundreds of posts of Dev thread for the most powerful long-range non-Celestial tractor beams ever. In my mind's eye, this ship shows up in a crisis, drags friendlies to safety or parks itself in a shielding position, provides internal sanctuary/rescue/refit, and shoves away hostiles. Also good for salvage, analysis, capture and containment, with enough berth space to function as a mass evacuation transport if necessary. Armament could be primarily ion cannons, maybe wide-angle ion pulse, with null burst projectors and planetary grade shutter shields.

I'm not sure if you're asking for permission, but if you are you have mine. Go for it man.
