Uther class Battleship

FINALLY!!!!!! A ship that's not built around an out-dated, massively underpowered weapons system that can't scratch the shields of any decent warship! Magnificent!

Two mild things of note and you're good to go. Light turbolasers are generally for engaging smaller craft such as patrol ships and corvettes. Think of them like the 5 inch guns on the Iowa-class battleships. They work really good for shooting relatively small, fast-moving targets, but they lack the firepower for use against bigger targets or the precision to be very accurate against anything smaller than patrol ships (specifically light freighters, pinnace/couriers, and the like). Medium turbolasers are, of course, the main-stay of any capital ship. They're used extensively in anti-capital ship movements, but against heavy vessels (such as dreadnoughts) they tend to be a little on the light end. I would suggest bumping the mediums up to heavies, and the lights up to mediums to perform more effectively against other battleships and dreadnoughts, but the choice is, of course, yours. Another option would be to lower the number of lights and mediums to free up some power for a few heavies, turning this into a jack-of-all-trades kind of ship.

The other thing to note is that the guy who first wrote the class information was a little skewed. Dreadnoughts, as a result, are anything bigger than 1500m, so drop it back by a hundred meters and you should fit into the pre-existing class structure very nicely.

And once again, may I comment on how nice it is to see somebody who is capable of making a proper line-ship? it's refreshing

Modified. Thanks for the help, Ashi! I think I'm going to stick with keeping it a capital ship basher; it has a decent sized starfighter force for support in the case of smaller ships and it's just what I intended the Uther for.

Once approved I'll be using this for Admiral Hamat's flagship, christened Paladin.

With the upping of all the turbolaser firepower, I would like to see cutbacks on the number of each. The 32 turbos alone is enough to stress the bulkiest of reactors.

Also, as Ashi said, you'll want to cut back on the size by just a hundred meters or so to stay within class restrictions.

Finally, the speed and maneuverability is much too high for a ship of this size. Remember, the stat system spans all ship classes with an interceptor having a 9-10 and a dreadnought having a 1-2.

I must admit, it is somewhat refreshing not to see any MACs or plasma induction coils or HEMOROIDS or garbage cannons or DYNAMIC-CLASS FREIGHTERS (with capital ship-level armaments).

- Brought the size down to 1500 meters to not be classified as a dreadnought
- Took speed and maneuverability both down to 3s (my apologies, I wasn't familiar with the scales :x)
- Brought Medium Turbos down to 16 from 22 and Heavies from 10 to 8.

Hope that corrects what you saw, Arh; thanks for reviewing.

My pleasure and duty! Thank you for your compliance.

Approved

are you two mouthing me?

Yes. Star Wars makes the Covenant in halo look boring and outdated. MACs are used as the primary weapons on these ships. See my problem?
