Overview: The Ancient One Corvette/Escort is the smallest warship in service with the Ancient One Navy. It is designed to support larger ships and as a patrol craft. They are sometimes alone or in groups of five. Like all Ancient One ships the Corvette/Escort is consructed entirely of Star Steel making it semi-sentient. It also has no internal atmosphere due to the Ancient Ones not needing to breath. As a standard it has Single Pilot Conection. This allows the Ancient One Pilot to become one with the ship, making it a fully sentient organism. This allows for the Pilot to know what is happening around the ship at all times.
Armament: All Ancient One vessels are armed with special Tachyon cannons that have no exact hard point. This is because the energy can be channeled through the hull of the ship to fire from any one point, or all around it at once. They can also use the hull as a weapon.
Dark-Matter to Tachyon Energy Cannon or Light Cannons: The primary weapon of Ancient One ships. By taking ambient or stored Dark-Matter, the ship converts it into Tachyon energy that is fired from any point on the hull. This is useally in the form of a foucused beam. They are also used in the ships CWIS system. Several other Ancient One ships can surround A single Ancient One ship in a ring formation and chanel their energy into the center ship. The center ship then fires a concentrated beam from those ships as well as it's own.
Defenses:
Star Steel: Star Steel is a Semi-Sentient, Self repaing, crystiline material that all Ancient One ships are made from. It is extreamely durable against energy weapons, but is weak against kenetic weaponry. Star Steel can also be used as an offensive and defensive weapon. By either making a crystiline shard or a cloud of 4 inch shaveings. When the Star Steel comes in contact with its target it begins to drain it of power growing in the process. This stops when the target is out of energy or the Star Steel is removed.
Shields: Ancient One shields are comprised of several layers of pure energy. The shields can be overloaded which have a 50% chance of overloading a key system.
Poweplant: 1x Void-Matter Reactor: The Void-Matter Reactor is a powerful reactor that gives the Ancient One ships their power where normal reactors would fail. The reactor uses highly volatile Void-Matter from the Cradle of Life and Death. The reactor harnesses the energy that is put out by the matter. The energy output of 5 pounds of Void-Matter is equivalent to 50 anti-matter reactors.
Utility Capabilities: 1x Gravity Manipluation Beam: The GMB creates a gravity well in a certin area of effect that pulls objects towards the ship. The gravitational fields can range from 1G to 27Gs.
Troop Complement: 50,000 Warriors and 50,000 Legionnaires. These soldiers are kept in a dorment state and are only as large as their shield for maxium ammount of transport. It can also carry 200 Ao Tank varients in travel form.
Crew: 1x Commander, 1x Pilot, 400x Commons.
Attack Craft: 400 Ao Starfighter varients
Sublight and FTL Engines:
Star Drive: By using hydrogen the ship creates a fission explosion that is channeled out to provide thrust. Hydrogen is collected via the hull scooping up hydrogen and funneling it to the Star Drive.
Trans-Dimensional Drive: The Trans-Dimensional Drive takes space-time and nullifies it, allowing the ship to cross vast distances instentaniously. It is useally preceded by a massive surge of energy from the jump point. Though the Pilot needs exact coordinates for the jump or else it will end up inside of another object or not apear at all.
