Fiction:Troodontid Empire/Military/Navy

If there is something the Troodontids are proud of, then their fleet. Produced in massive shipyards the production of spaceships is a big part of the Troodontid industry. The production of the spaceships is done by four big Troodontid organizations that all have different styles and try to make their ships superior to those of their competitors. Not driven by money, the Troodontid engineers try to be the best because they want to show off. In the end all spaceships are fully able of cooperating with each other ( which has be legally secured when the creation of different organizations in spaceship and android production was permitted in 2768 ) and end up in the Troodontid fleet.

UniTech
UniTech ( Tech Union ) is the T.A.S.C. spaceship production and currently most important producer of Troodontid spaceships. They were the only producers of spaceships till 2768. They tend to build super-sized, block like ships that are build for strength and defence rather than speed.

Dreadnought
Dragon Class=


 * Name: Dragon Class
 * Length: 15240 m
 * Introduced: 2767 / 01 NE

The Dragon Class Ship is the core ship of the Troodontid fleet. It is the primary spaceship, but only used by major members of their race and for important situations. Being over 15 km long, the Dragon Class is among the biggest spaceships of the Troodontid Empire. The Dragon Class was constructed to fight strong spaceships like those of the CyraEmp or the Drakodominatus Tyranny. The Dragon Class power comes from is size, the resulting amount of weapons and the intimidating effect of the super-sized spaceship. Being as advanced as it is possible for the Troodontids the Dragon Class is a highly effective structure, capable of fighting fleets of less advanced races single handedly. They usually act alone, except when the Troodontid empire has to face a powerful opponent. Then the Dragon Class tends to strike in small groups.

Dragon Class, Devastator=


 * Name: Dragon Class, Devastator
 * Length: 18500 m

The Firebird is the Dragon Class version of a bomber. This spaceship is the third biggest Troodontid spaceship so far and used to attack and devastate enemy planets. They lack the speed and agility of the other Dragon Classes, in return they exceed them in destructive power. They have less defense turrets and instead have increased torpedo, missile and bomb numbers. The Super Ion Cannon of the Firebird is also able to keep enemy ships away from it during attacks.

Dragon Class, Superior=


 * Name: Dragon Class, Devastator
 * Length: 23450 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 2_A_b

The Superior is as the name says the most advanced, powerful and dangerous Troodontid spaceship. In theory the spaceship is even capable of defeating a Dragon Class Mother, but so far the ship is still not finished. It has an optimized shape and weaponry that allows it to fight even highly advanced spaceships. The ship is build to be almost invincible due its enormous firepower, size, armor and shields.

Dragon Class, Mother=


 * Name: Dragon Class, Mother
 * Length: 25780 m
 * Introduced: 2767 / 01 NE
 * Type: Class 5_C_b
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Longranged Laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Super Ion Cannons
 * Teleporter: 36

The Dragon Class Mother is the biggest Troodontid spaceship to be build so far. The ships are used as flagships for the most important Troodontid leaders. The spaceship is capable of destroying enemy fleets on its own. Apart from being a massive warship, the Dragon Class Mother is capable of transporting enormous amounts of androids and star fighters into battle, making the Dragon Class Mother one of the most powerful spaceships. In return only few of this kind exist. Only the flagships of Draicon ( Pride of the Empire ), Samrrak ( Nigrumbra ) and Thor ( Exterminator ) are this kind of spaceship. two more are under construction.

Battlecruiser
Atlas Class=


 * Name: Atlas Class
 * Length: 12300 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 4_B_b/d
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Ion Cannons
 * Super Ion Cannons
 * Metric Cannons
 * Teleporter: 18

The Atlas Class is among the strongest Troodontid Battleships. It is an invasion ship build to attack planets on its own as well as putting and holding them under siege. Not very fast, but incredibly destructive, is the Atlas Class a dangerous force, but a poor hunter. They are never used against small targets and instead fight the bigger war cruisers of the enemy. Its sheer size and the power of its shields make the Atlas Class almost impossible to destroy for less advanced races and a hard opponents for even the most advanced empires. In return the spaceship is hard to build and there still exist only very few of them. It is furthermore one of the few Troodontid spaceships that are solely build for war.

Krios Class=


 * Name: Krios Class
 * Length: 14800 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 4_A_a
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Ion Cannons
 * Super Ion Cannon
 * Metric Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 24

The Krios Class is almost as big as the Dragon Class and almost equally strong. In fact the Krios Class is even more massive than the Dragon Class. This ship is used to defend important Troodontid planets, since they are very slow, but highly resistant towards most weapons. Its sheer size and the thick Neutridium walls make a destruction from outside very hard, the best way to destroy it is to overload its Super Ion Cannon. They are sometimes used as science vessels due their high storage capability. They are very hard to build and so only few of them exist.

Battleship
Oceanos Class=


 * Name: Oceanos Class
 * Length: 6250 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 5_A_b/c/d
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons

 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Longranged Laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Metric Cannons
 * Energy Field Generator
 * Teleporter: 12

The Oceanos Class is a class of Battleship widely used in recent times. They are big, but relatively fast and agile. Compared to other Troodontid Battleships Oceanos Class ships are small. Unlike those the Oceanos Class is able to land on planets due its anti-gravitation systems. They are also able to dive into seas to protect themselves from views. They are not as powerful as bigger spaceships, but still relatively strong in battle. they mostly accompany bigger warships when attacking or guard trading ships. The shields and armor are the standard ones of the Troodontid Empire.

Star Destroyer
Athena Class=


 * Name: Athena Class
 * Length: 3200 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 2_D_b/c
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Energy Field Generator
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 8

The Athena Class is one of the newer Troodontid Spaceships and one of the most advanvced. This spaceship was the first of the new Troodontid spaceship design and had been proven useful and effective very fast. They are the direct precursors of the bigger Oceanos Class, but are - due its effectiveness - still in use. The Athena Class is a quite powerful, but small spaceship that relies on the usual Troodontid weapons as well as new ones. The Athena Class is mostly used to keep peace on planets, but is also used during the first stages of wars when the bigger warships haven't arrived yet. The Athena Class is both fast and massive, allowing the spaceship to be very handy on its own as well.

Hephaistos Class=


 * Name: Hephaistos Class
 * Length: 4320 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 5_C_b
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Shield Jammer
 * Teleporter: 10

The Hephaistos Class is a star destroyer widely used by the Troodontids. They are both fast and strong, but not very agile. The Hephaistos Class is usually active during the entire wars helping the bigger Battlecruisers, Battleships and Dreadnoughts in fights. The Hephaistos Class is designed to fight in small groups, arther than on its own and is also the only ship that carries Shield Jammers. Since the energy needed for this structure is quite low, it was put on this spaceship rather than a bigger one.

Cruiser
Ares Class=


 * Name: Ares Class
 * Length: 2660 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 5_D_b
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Longranged Laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 6

The Ares class is the most common Troodontid cruiser. They are small compared to other warships, but are able to overwhelm bigger opponents with their sheer numbers. They are also often used to start an invasion on a planet by bringing down vast amounts of androids to the surface of the planet. Being light and small Ares Class are able to land on planets. They might not be as resistant as the bigger warships, but they are still better suited for bringing armies to the ground than most drop ships due their shields. Sometimes Troodontids use Ares Class against ground armies as well since most armies can not effectively use their weapons against them.

Frigate
Hermes Class=


 * Name: Hermes Class
 * Length: 1208 m
 * Introduced: 2767 / 01 NE
 * Type: Class 5_C_b
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Metric Cannons
 * Teleporter: 2

The Hermes Class is a bomber. It is capable of fighting starfighters, but is mostly used to attack enemy cities and infrastructure. Though not very fast, the Hermes Class is still a useful spaceship. They are heavily armored and so can easily survive several hits from even more advanced spaceships. The design of the Hermes Class wasn't used by the TechUnion again since it seemed ineffective to them. instead it was used as base for the smaller Laivanrankan spaceships.

Corvette
Iapetus Class=


 * Name: Iapetus Class
 * Length: 750 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 3_B_b
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Longranged Laser Cannons
 * Ion Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 1

The Iapetus Class is the smallest military spaceship of the UniTech. It is a very fast spaceship and is build for speed and agility. They are planned to attack in big groups and evade the enemy volleys. They should theoretically defend the bigger spaceships from starfighters as well as bombers. They have shields, but aren't very big so they can easily be destroyed with a few shots. Due its speed the Iapetus Class is also useable as transport to distant locations.

Non-Military Spaceships
Hades-Class=


 * Name: Hades Class
 * Length: 35 m
 * Type: Class 5_D
 * Arming:
 * none
 * Teleporter: 1

The Hades Class is the most common Troodontid trading ship. Though unarmed, the spaceship is capable of cloaking and so spying. Usually several of the spaceships are needed for transporting big amounts of goods. Because of that many of these ships exist. the Troodontids even think of the small ships as advantage because of being easy to manufacture, harder to hit and more dispensable. The Hades Class is a very fast ship and able to avoid volleys of most spaceships.

Carrier Ship=


 * Name: Hades Class
 * Length: 216 m
 * Type: Class 5_D
 * Arming:
 * none
 * Teleporter: 1

The carrier ship is used to transport satellites and android missiles into the orbit of planets. Being able to cloak allows the Carrier Ship to do so unnoticed. They are not able to be manually controlled and instead fully operate with an android brain.

Spacestations
Builder Class=


 * Name: Builder Class
 * Length: 10250 m
 * Type: Class 5_C
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 45

The Builder Class was the first space station type to be developed. It is used as hangar, construction ship and trade outpost, but its main use is to provide space for scientific programs. Though initially unarmed, the Builder Class now is provided with weapons against star fighters and bombers. After all the Builder class still has to rely on the protection from spaceships since it can't defend itself against bigger spaceships. Usually a Builder Class is orbiting an object of interest. Its purpose as construction site has been greatly reduced since the construction of the shipyards and the Olympus Class since the newer spaceships now can be much bigger than the Builder.

Olympus Class=


 * Name: Olympus Class
 * Length: 888000 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 5_C
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Metric Cannons
 * Teleporter: 40

The Olympus Class currently is the biggest space station type of the Troodontids. It is a gigantic structure solely build to provide space for the trade of the Troodontids, diplomatic meetings and most importantly as shipyard. Though there are other super-sized shipyards as well, those usually aren't space stations, but mega structures. The Olympus Class is heavily defended and capable of destroying most attacking spaceships on its own. However an attack would be a bad idea solely because of the fact that big parts of the Troodontid fleet tend to hover near the station.

Navistruc
Navistruc is the second organization and the second most powerful. They produce even faster than UniTech, but tend to build smaller, less destructive ships that are more build for fast attacks and maneuvers, but also have plans for very big spaceships.

Laivanrankan
Laivanrankan builds heavily armoured ships that tend to be the smallest. They are the least successful, but still have several good models. Their ships are rather slow, but quite good in long time fights.

Star Destroyer
Rhea Class=


 * Name: Rhea Class
 * Length: 3200 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 3_A_a
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Metric Cannons
 * Teleporter: 14

The Rhea Class is a slow-moving, but powerful Star Destroyer. They have a extremely high resistance and are very hard to destroy even after the shields are down due their massive hull. Similar sized to the Athena Class the Rhea Class surpasses it in firepower and resistances, but due the slow movements of the Rhea Class they are less effective. Furthermore the Rhea Class is very difficult to build due the thick walls. Because of that the spaceships will never be numerous. The Rhea Class was solely designed to defend planets where there is no need to give the ship supreme speed.

Cruiser
Phoibe Class=


 * Name: Phoibe Class
 * Length: 2250 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 5_B_a
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Heavy Laser cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Double laser cannons
 * Quadro laser cannons
 * Longranged Laser cannons
 * Missile launchers
 * Plasma Pulse Cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 9

The Phoibe Class is a slow moving, defensive Cruiser. It has a high resistance towards most weapons and is outweighing almost every ship of the same size because of the thick walls and armor. That weight is what makes the Phoibe Class that slow. Though being slow, the Phoibe Class is an effective defense ship capable of defending a planet against small fleets on its own. It has supreme firepower and is capable of destroying most equal sized spaceships with few volleys.

Corvette
Theia Class=




 * Name: Theia Class
 * Length: 550 m
 * Introduced: 2769 / 03 NE
 * Type: Class 6_D_c
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Missile launcher
 * Proton Cannons
 * Teleporter: 1

The Theia Class is a slow moving, quite unsuccessful model of spaceship. They are very slow, but lack the supreme firepower of the bigger models. Because of that the spaceship is relatively easy to destroy. That makes it less useful for both defense and offense. Instead the spaceship is only used to keep peace on other nations since there usually is not much destruction needed. The production of this spaceship was stopped, but it is still in use after all.

Non-Military Spaceship
Koios Class=




 * Name: Oceanos Class
 * Length: 10000 m
 * Introduced: 2768 / 02 NE
 * Type: Class 5_A
 * Arming:
 * Point Laser Cannons
 * Laser cannons
 * Proton Cannons
 * Energy Cannon
 * Teleporter: 84

The Koios Class is the most successful Laivanrankan spaceship. It is a 10 km troop transporter. It has only few defenses apart from anti-star fighter cannons and a Energy Cannon and is because of that not very useful in combat. Instead they use their thick armor to protect the androids till they reach the battle. Then they usually retire behind the lines of the attack ships and wait to take up the android army again. It has a huge amount of teleporters to quickly teleport the entire army up in case of retreat. In return teleporting them down also is much faster.

Ship Federation
The Ship Federation is the youngest organization and a rising star. The Ship Federation is a subsidiary of UniTech and so a part of T.A.S.C.. They tend to build very advanced, high-tech ships. Unlike the other organizations the Ship Federation builds ships that lack the intimidating factor mostly depicted as usual for Troodontid ships and replace it with hidden weapons. They still build bigger ships than Laivanrankan though.
