ADVANCED SYSTEMS
STRENGTHS
- Offensive capabilities: The Trireme class star destroyer possesses a wide range of armament designed to provide small fleets with a heavy hitter.
[*]Defensive capabilities: The Trireme possesses strong defenses provided by both the Phalanx Testudo and the Loki EWAR System.
[*]Ship breaker: The bow of the Trireme is heavily reinforced and possesses a massive solid durasteel bulbous bow. When an enemy vessel is disabled, the Trireme will slam into the vessel using its reinforced bow. The impact is lessened in the Trireme by large shock absorptionunits in the front half of the vessel. A solid strike from this breaker can be devastating, and if done properly it can place the Trireme's turbo lasers in close proximity of the opposing vessels bridge.
- Offensive capabilities: The Trireme class star destroyer possesses a wide range of armament designed to provide small fleets with a heavy hitter.
- Slow: What the Trireme makes up for in defenses and firepower, it sorely lacks in speed. This large vessel can quickly be outpaced by smaller ships, making it terrible for pursuits.
[*]Mobility: Agility is not in the namesake for this vessel. A result from the weight of all of its armaments. When confronted with a smaller,faster opponent, this ship is better at relying on its defenses and lighter cannons to deal with it.

When the Arsenians took their first cautious steps into the galaxy, they quickly realized how overwhelmed they really were in terms of military tech. With empires and factions waging war around them, and the threat of pirates with large space fairing vessels prowling their borders, the Arsenians needed a way to defend themselves. Being a planet with a small population and no territories outside their own system, they couldn't afford large fleets to defend themselves. The Trireme class Star Destroyer became the answer to this dilemma. A large star destroyer with both strong offensive and defensive capabilities, able to easily work effectively in small fleets.
With a durasteel hull, alusteel skeleton, doonium plating, duraplast and plasteel interior. The Trireme was designed to take a beating, even if all the weight makes it slow in both speed and maneuverability. The Trireme possesses a Phalanx Testudo to drastically increase its shield defenses and a Loki EWAR system to defend their communications. The communications themselves are Freyja communications systems which provides a safe communications network for the vessel. A Skynet Holocontrol system allows for holo screens to be accessed in major areas such as the bridge, hangars, and briefing rooms, which allows messages and information to be passed rapidly throughout the vessel.
Along with its strong defenses, the Trireme possesses equally strong offensive capabilities. Large numbers of turbolasers, ion cannons, rail guns and other weaponry dot the hull of the vessel. What stands out the most, though, is the massive durasteel naval ram on the bow of the vessel. This was added to match the warships on their home planet. When an enemy vessel is disabled, the Trireme uses this large naval ram to slam into the vessel. Impact from the collision is drastically lessened by large shock absorption units found in the bow of the ship. A solid strike from this ram can be devastating, and if done properly it can place the Trireme's turbo lasers in close proximity of the opposing vessels bridge. Tractor beam can then be activated to either hold the vessel in place or push it away.
