STRENGTHS

• Advanced Shield System: The Deliverance-class has standard shields, as well as an advanced shield emitted by a ring. The advanced shield is incredibly powerful and can cover enough space for smaller ships to utilize, for example, repair drones, or transports. This shield system creates a dome that can extend up to 1600 Meters off the widest point of the Deliverance. That's the length of an Imperial-I SD. In other words, an ISD's engines could touch the side of The Deliverance and the tip of the ISD would be covered by the shield.

WEAKNESSES

• Not Maneuverable: The ring forces the ship to move slower in order to keep it aligned.
• Weak Weapons: The energy the shields use forces the ship to have fewer weapons.
• Stay on Target: The ring is not very durable, allowing a single proton torpedo to destroy it.

DESCRIPTION

The Deliverance -Class Star Destroyer is a rare and experimental defensive-minded Star Destroyer. Still in Alpha-phase, the Deliverance has a shield-emitter ring capable of covering a large distance around the ship itself. Designed by Veinstein Innovation, the ship is unique to The Elysium Empire, however, none have been produced yet due to the Empire's lack of factories and stations. The Ship's unique shield causes several issues: Maneuverability is lowered, the energy use means weapons are scarce, and the rim can easily be destroyed.

OOC Note: The Elysium Empire is not major yet. This is just the design, we do not produce them.

Heath Valhoun , I'll be your factory judge for this submission.

This design is technically two ratings underpowered. I'd probably recommend increasing the production to limited for the use of one of those ratings, as otherwise we'll need a narrower affiliation than "The Elysium Empire".

• Hyperdrive: No
• Hyperdrive Class: N/A

I'd really recommend changing this so that it has a hyperdrive. It doesn't cost any ratings to have an average hyperdrive, and it'll allow the ship to be deployed and used away from its home system. Even if it is solely planned to be used in a single star system, people do use tactical micro-jumps, which could put this ship at a disadvantage. Ultimately though, it's your choice if you want to change this or not.

• Advanced Shield System: The Deliverance-class has standard shields, as well as an advanced shield emitted by a ring. The advanced shield is incredibly powerful and can cover enough space for smaller ships to utilize, for example, repair drones, or transports.

Similar canon technology has existed like this for a while, with the KL-44 Commander Shield Generator on small starfighters, while Admiral Daala showed that canon star destroyer shields could be projected to entirely encompass another nearby star destroyer. Other people on Chaos have made similar, projectable shields.

It's fine that you're explicitly listing that ability here through this specific system. Can you give us a rough idea of about how much area this shield can cover? Is it just in a sphere that just manages to encompass the user ship? Or can it be projected even farther away or in different shapes?

• Manufacturer:
• Veinstein Labs and Innovations Dr. Veinstein Dr. Veinstein

I saw that Dr. Veinstein liked this submission, so I'm sure that he's fine with you using his company to make this, but we need some explicit reference here showing that he's fine with you using his company to make this submission. A screenshot of a Discord or PM conversation or a link to a post somewhere here on the forums showing that he's okay with this would work.

Thank you very much!

I gave more explanation for the shield, I added a hyperdrive, and upped the production to limited.

As for Dr. Veinstein, he is a member of the faction, and I have used him and his company as a source for several other submissions that were accepted. The following is an image from a faction discussion:

Thanks again!
