Hera Class Multipurpose Tylium Harvester (Mining Ship)

Hera Class Multipurpose Tylium Harvester (Tylium = Fuel used by New Colonial Ships)
--------------------
Designed in the early New Colonial era, in 2521, shortly after the galaxy-scaled war began. Created to quickly mine, refine, and transport tylium fuel from asteroids all in one ship, to replace the older methods of having a trio of ships do the job. Nearly three times as massive as the old trio combined, it contains five distinct sections of the ship: the crew quarters and bridge (front of ship), tylium storage pods (makes up majority of ship), tylium refinery pods and refinery sections (top of ship), mining pads (underside of ship), and lastly the engine sections (rear of ship). To mine, it lands pads first onto a planetoid or asteroid, drilling into it from all six pads, sending mined tylium into the refinery section and lastly the storage pods. The storage pods are quickly interchangeable, and the ship is quite fast, being able to match the top speeds of the heaviest and fastest battlestar ships.
Massive at a length of 860 meters. Equipped with:
-8x Sublight Engines
-FTL Capability
-24x Tylium Pods
-6x Refinery Pods
-6x Mining Pads

Intersun Cost: $3,500,000
Icarus Class War Frigate (Lvl 2)

Icarus Class Missile Cruiser (Lvl 2)
--------------------
A ship with the designation "War Frigate" in the New Colonial fleet is a medium sized space-going warship. They are a common sight in the New Colonies.
Designed with base off of Colonial Battlestars, it consists of 4 sections. The first is the massive body, housing the crew, storages, fuel, most sensors, the VLS cells in the front, and the massive DRADIS dome (space radar system). Second are the rear engine sections, consisting of 2 massive ion engines powered by tylium, a high quality fuel mined from asteroids, and the FTL sections. Third are the side mounted hangars, each housing up to 15 spacecraft each. They are equipped with the thickest armour found on the ship and launch catapult (railguns that fire out deployed Viper spacefighters). Last but definitely not least, the upper platform. It is a massive flat platform covering the back half of the ship, with the bridge tower and 2 massive KEW turrets for main ship-to-ship combat. It also contains the CIC center and the shield generators.
The Icarus is 502 meters long. Basically, a dumbed down version of the Daedalus cruiser, it is armed with:
-2x Large KEW Turrets
-18x Medium KEW Turrets
-46x Flak Turrets
-36x VLS Cells (Nuclear Tipped Missiles)
-18x Fighters
-10x Shuttles

Daedalus Class Missile Cruiser (Lvl 5)
--------------------
A ship with the designation "Missile Cruiser" in the New Colonial fleet is a sub-capitol sized space-going warship. They form the backbone of the standard heavy New Colonial fleet.
Designed with base off of Colonial Battlestars, it consists of 4 sections. The first is the massive body, housing the crew, storages, fuel, most sensors, the VLS cells in the front, and the massive DRADIS dome (space radar system). Second are the rear engine sections, consisting of 4 massive ion engines powered by tylium, a high quality fuel mined from asteroids, and the FTL sections. Third are the side mounted hangars, each housing up to 30 spacecraft each. They are equipped with the thickest armour found on the ship and launch catapult (railguns that fire out deployed Viper spacefighters, found on the level below the hangars). Last but definitely not least, the upper platform. It is a massive flat platform covering the back half of the ship, with the bridge tower and 4 massive KEW turrets for main ship-to-ship combat. It also contains the CIC center and the shield generators.
The Daedalus is 678 (600 meters without sensor antennae) meters long. It is armed with:
-4x Large KEW Turrets
-24x Medium KEW Turrets
-50x Flak Turrets
-48x VLS Cells (Nuclear Tipped Missiles)
-38x Fighters
-20x Shuttles

Hephaestus Class Warstar (Lvl 9)
--------------------
A "Battlestar" or the heavier "Warstar" (or variants such as the Conqueststars and Titanstars) is a New Colonial frontline warship. Battlestars and Warstars are large Battleships/Air/Spacecraft carriers and serve as the heart of the New Colonial Fleet.
Battlestars and Warstars are giant space going leviathans ranging from almost 700m to nearly 2.3km in length. They are divided into 5 sections, first the "alligator head" at the front of the ship, this houses the CIC along with large amounts of sensor equipment and the much of the ship's offensive capability. Second is the body of the ship this houses the primary storage, causeways linking parts of the ship and on most classes large KEW cannons. Third is the engine section, this houses the primary sublight and the FTL drives of the ship. Last is the two flight pods, these house the hangers, launch tubes and in many classes more KEW weapons.
The Hephaestus is a massive Warstar with a length of roughly two kilometers. Designed to fulfill the role of capitol superheavy warship in the New Colonial fleet, it is massive, heavily armoured, and has a huge number of weapons.
- Medium, Large, Massive KEW Turrets
- 300x VLS Cells (Nuclear Tipped Missiles)
- 16x Large Forward Facing Railguns (Inside Head)
- 1x Accelerator Cannon (Inside Head)
1.4 km Length of Cannon
- 250 Fighters
- 100 Shuttles
