ADVANCED SYSTEMS
STRENGTHS
  • Swarm - The class has a massive hanger on board that can carry a large attack wing and accommodates small warships fifty meters and smaller.
  • Guns - The class has a heavy loadout and mix of weapon systems giving it formidable firepower at all ranges.
  • Fortress - The class has experimental armor made from a special heat coated bonded plate of the densest materials available making its hull and armor hardened to all forms of attack.
  • Bubble - The class has three robust shielding systems protecting it from all types of standard and exotic weapons systems.
WEAKNESSES
  • Gravity - The hull plating of the class is so thick and dense that the vessel can not enter the orbit of a planet or it will be pulled into the atmosphere of the world by its gravitational pull.
  • Brick - The sheer mass of the vessel requires immense counter force to maneuver and slow therefore the sunlight maneuverability if very low
  • Sloth - Because of the massive vessel mass, it requires massive amounts of thrust to propel in sublight.
  • Massive - The class is a massive construction and easy to target by optical sensors and line of sight.
DESCRIPTION
Design
The Bulwark Mk V prototype is based on the old Bulwark Mk III battlecruiser utilized centuries ago by the Alliance to Restore the Republic, New Republic, and Galactic Alliance. The new variant is much larger than the original vessel and utilizes state of the art weapons and systems including redundancies in the power and signal transmission systems.

Construction
The vessel is a formidable construct made of Molecularly Bonded Neuranium. Ionic Fusing bombards the liquified Neuranium with charged vibrating waves in the cooling process to strengthen the already dense molecular bond of the material. Each plate is a fifty-centimeter thick plate which is then given a five-centimeter thick layer of Hyperbaride External Heat Shield Plating. This outer layer of plating can absorb massive amounts of heat from any energy type weapon. This armor is laid atop of a twenty centimeter thick Impervium Hull creating a strong underlayer of armor protection for the vessel. This hull is installed over a triple reinforced frame made of Condensed-matter composite held together by Ferrocarbon reinforcements. Throughout the vessel the internal construction including Blast Doors, Bulkheads, Internal walls.

Defense
Adding tot he formidable armor and hull of the vessel are its multiple shielding systems. The base shielding is provided by an advanced Aspis-class Shield System purchased from Lucerne labs. This system provides multi-layer multi-projector shielding giving the vessel protection from all forms of weapon. Secondary shield systems are installed for advanced shielding protection. The first of these is the double layer Redundant Molecular Shielding which absorbs all incoming energy and transfers that energy to massive capacitor banks deep inside the vessel hull. These capacitor banks add to the already robust power supply systems of the ship. The final shielding system is a Solar Ray Shielding system which specializes in protection from energy including solar energy weapons. These systems cover the vessel completely and provide extremely powerful layers of protection from all forms of damage.

Defensive weaponry is a mix of energy, kinetic, and projectile weapon systems. The first of these systems is the multiple massive Flak Cannon Turrets. these turrets fire indirect fire targeting areas, not individual craft. These large-caliber explosive projectiles, which release large plumes upon discharge. These large clouds fill the target area with high-velocity shrapnel which is incredibly deadly against attack craft and incoming ordinance. Secondly are the point defense weapons which are made up of Point-defense Ion Cannon Turrets, and the Point-defense Laser Cannon Turrets. These two weapon systems work together to both disable and destroy incoming attack craft and ordinance. Antimissile Octet Turrets back up the defensive weaponry targeting incoming ordinance then intercepting it with fast-firing, fast-tracking projectiles which detonated in the path of the projectile releasing a small cloud of shrapnel to destroy the projectile. The final defensive weapon system is the multiple Shock Cannon Turrets. These CIWS turrets provided very powerful and effecting heavy point defense. The power of these weapons is largely dependant on the range at which they are utilized. The systems use long burn beams to inflict staggering amounts of damage upon a target. This damage becomes weaker as the range increases making then far less effective over average weapon range.

Network
Internal defense system aid the massive onboard marine complement is defending the vessel from boarders. Pyrowalls description protected the vessel's computer systems from both external and internal slicer attacks. Every computer interface and control panel as well as every personnel interface and droid interface is protected by socketguards limiting any access to the vessel's network from that port. These anti-slicer systems were monitored at all times by Rapid Repetition Defense Measure programming which detected any intrusion and counteracted it instantly upon detection. EI-9 network security droids protect the vessel's network both online and physically utilizing blasters and various tentacle-like interfaces to engage an enemy. These tentacles were also equipped with multiple types of interface connecting adapters giving it the ability to connect and control any type of interface on the vessel. these droids were equipped with a quick load computer core and a self destruct systems that would save the data acquired by the droid and then destroy itself if it becomes compromised.

Embedded Mantraps are positioned along the kilometers and kilometers of deck plating along the vessels corridors. These systems can be triggered when on defensive mode when boarders are detected, or controlled from various control systems aboard the vessel to increase the local gravity of the corridor from the entire span down to each individual plate. these plats can increase the gravity to seventy-eight and a half meters per second squared of gravity. this increases the mass of the target by eight times disabling the target's ability to move. continued exposure to the gravity field could affect the targets respiratory and circulatory system. Internal Force Field Generators are also positioned along the ceilings of the corridors which could be used for security limiting areas from being entered or trapping a target in a specific area of the vessel. These systems could also be used to aid onboard defense forces by providing shielding for them in battle.

Offense
The offensive Capabilities of the class are monstrous. The core of its offensive package is the central spinal mounted Destructor Beam. This weapon has unimaginable destructive power at extreme ranges. The weapon is a massively overcharged turbolaser with the destructive power equal to that of a proton beam cannon. The secondary armaments of the vessel are in themselves powerful energy weapons. Two pairs of Orbital Autocannons are positioned on the prow of the vessel with a fixed forward foreign arc. These powerful weapons aid the Destructor Beam in providing super heavy firepower for the vessel. Standardized long-range weapons such as Heavy Long-Range Ion Canons, which provide extreme range anti-shield and disabling capabilities and Long Range Turbolaser Cannon Turrets, which give extreme range offensive power tot he vessel adding tot he super heavy weapon systems. These weapons are positioned to give fire support to the forward and flank fire arcs but do not cover the rear arc of the vessel making it necessary for the vessel to engage from its forward or broadside arcs.

Dual Heavy Turbolaser Cannon Turrets and Quad battleship Ion Cannons give the vessel long-range fire capabilities in every fire arch. These weapons give the Bulwark Mk V-class heavy skirmish and brawler firepower when needed. Separatist flagship Deck Cannons are positioned along the fore and broadsides of the vessel adding tot he brawling power of the vessel. These cannons fire both ion energy and kinetic mass driver rounds. Octuple barbette Turbolaser Cannon Turrets are positioned along the ventral and dorsal hull giving the vessel faster firing faster-tracking weapon systems to engage frigates and corvettes more effectively. The final weapon systems in the classes expansive offensive loadout are the Shield Disruptor Turrets. These weapons aid in disabling a targets shields. These systems worked to disrupt the shielding of a vessel opening its hull to fire from other weapon systems.

Complement
Four massive Hangers are positioned on the port and starboard hulls of the vessel. These hangers house repair, resupply, launch, and even build new craft. They service the various squadrons of attack craft, support craft, freighters, and even small capital vessels up to fifty meters long. The entryways to the hangers re protected by their own shielding systems and magnetic field. Large reinforced Impervium doors can be closed to protect the hangers in battle.

The class has a large assault force onboard which both operate as Assault forces and ship security. A full Marine Corps is stationed on the vessel with dedicated housing, training, medical, and recreational facilities. These troops are deployed by various assault shuttles, boarding craft, drop-ship, and drop pods into an engagement area or aboard an enemy starship. A large group of ground support vehicles are also carried aboard to assist the assault force when needed. The vessels immense internal area allows for a very large cargo capacity giving the class a three year supply of consumables for the full crew and passengers.

Production
The Bulwark Mk V-class is a group of three vessels built as the prototype for a new class of heavy battlecruiser. The cost of the vessels far exceeds its reasonable value and the three ships are meant to be the only vessels of the class. each vessel was built at the Directorate yards over Rothanna and supplied to General Forlon as payment for his assistance in various missions and projects. The lead vessel, Justice, now serves at General Forlons command ship in his task force assembled to aid the Agents of Chaos in destabilizing tyrannical factions throughout the galaxy.
