Mark and I will be taking over archived/abandoned Vong tech subs soon, and will be resubmitting them under our own writer accounts. Larraq, if you could also produce a list of everything that's been approved and everything that has currently been abandoned, I would very much appreciate the steep cut in work we have to do to get everything sorted out. If not... I won't force ya. I'll probably need clarification of where each one stands, as I am not familiar with Vong tech nor how far along it was in review.
The following is the three remaining starships. They are currently waiting for a dev threads before submission. They also need descriptions that I never got around to writing.

Intent: To create an organic Flagship for use by the Horde
Development Thread:
Manufacturer: Horde Shapers
Model: Jormungand-class Void Dragon
Affiliation: The Horde
Modularity: None
Production: Minor-Production
Material: Organic Flesh,
Description:
Vong Weaponry and Equipment
Light Plasma Cannons: 2 Laser Cannon value Plasma Cannons: 2 capital weapons each (value based on Deck Cannon value) Rock Spitters: valued same as missile systems
Heavy Rock Spitters: 2x Missile weapon systems (not assault missile value)
Bio-Acid Jet: 1 capital weapon each
Close range weapon, similar range and tracking as Heavy Blaster/Heavy Laser
Damage value slightly greater than Heavy Laser or Turbolaser
Quill Launcher: 1 capital weapon each
muscles contract to launch a 4 meter long diamond-hard spike at high speeds
Comparable to Mass-Driver
Shorter range and slower speed, slightly higher damage output
Thermal-Larva Launcher: 1 Heavy Warhead Launcher
muscle contraction launches massive larva from host ship
Larva is launched at high speed and the shock of sudden acceleration 'activates' it
The Larva begins heating up and venting proton energy (or similar/appropriate energy)
Vented energy can be directed and manipulated, allowing larva to guide itself to target
Larva has dense, razor sharp spiked carapace
Larva impacts a target, explodes in a violent burst of energy and acid,
and carapace shards
Dovin Basal: 5 defensive guns
Light Dovin Basal: 2 Defensive guns
Cannot be used for propulsion
Heavy Dovin Basal: 10 defensive guns
Also provides Interdiction
Also provides wider area of coverage
Hyvalisk Colony (Orbalisk)
Hyvalisks are tiny insects shaped by the Vong from captured Orbalisks. These tiny insects build hives in the upper layers of coral or in the outer skin of biological creatures. These insects can survive and move about in the absolute vacuum of space. These tiny creatures form thin clouds as they swarm over the surface of the ship they infect. This layer of insects deflects and absorbs the energy of incoming energy weapons fire in much the same way as a layer of ray shielding would. The cloud of insects is so dense that even projectile weaponry are slowed and deflected off course, allowing the insect swarm to perform a similar function as a deflector shield when withstanding all forms of weaponry.
These insects feed on the host ship/creature and breed rapidly. While millions of these insects could die during a few seconds of starship combat, these millions are quickly replaced and grow to maturity in time to replace those lost during the last barrage of damage the bio-ship withstood.
Passenger Capacity: 6,000
Cargo Capacity: 16,000 Tons
Consumables: 4 Years
Sublight Speed and Maneuverability: 9

It was brought to my attention that the image and source used for the 2km ship is in use by the CIS on an 800m ship. Here is a replacement image and source if you can't find one.
