ANNN:

“The Atlantian High Senate has unveiled its new plans as far as its ever-changing military.

1st off, it seems the Olympic Mothership project has been canceled. After only getting 25% of the way done, it has been declared a waste of time by the government. Instead, the project will be scrapped, and the pieces used in another new project, the restoration of the lost 4th and 5th fleets.

The 2 fleets where destroyed during the Elarian/Droven war, about half of the casualties coming from when the Atlantian forces began to flee. Originally, the military plans called for new ships of the same classes to be built to replace those lost. But recently, the Atlantian Senate decided to update the fleet. The funds and recourses from the abandoned Mothership project will be diverted to the fleet project. The Specs for the old ships and new ships are as follows:

The 1st 3 fleets (the 1st generation of ship classes):

Titan Battleship
Low Maneuverability
113 Obelisk fighters
20 Orcalic Phasers
30 Plasma Cannons
2 Polaron Wave Turrets (These are Atlantian versions of EMP waves)
Shields/Cloak/Ablative Armor
1,000 Total Personnel

Pyramid Heavy Cruiser
Moderate Maneuverability
14 Orcalic Phasers
20 Plasma Cannons
500 Total Gravity Mines
Shields/Cloak/Ablative Armor
700 Total Personnel

Poseidon Light Cruiser
Moderate Maneuverability
9 Orcalic Phasers
11 Plasma Cannons
15 Pulse Orcalic Phaser Turrets
Shields/Cloak/Ablative Armor
500 Total Personnel

Barracuda Destroyer
High Maneuverability
5 Orcalic Phasers
7 Plasma Cannons
1 Ion Disrupter (can temporarily destabilize your shields)
Shields/Cloak/Ablative Armor
200 Total Personnel

Obelisk Fighter
Ultra High Maneuverability
2 Orcalic Pulse Phaser Turrets
50 Total Gravity Mines
Ablative Armor
1 Total Personnel

The 4th and 5th fleets (the 2nd generation of ship classes):

Leviathan Battleship
Moderate Maneuverability
90 Swarm Fighters
20 Orcalic Phasers
20 Plasma Cannons
1 Polaron Wave Turret
Sheilds/Cloak/Ablative Armor
900 Total personal

Oceanus Heavy Cruiser
High Moderate Maneuverability
15 Orcalic Phasers
15 Plasma Cannons
400 Gravity Mines
Sheilds/Cloak/Ablative Armor
700 Total personnel

Centaur Light Cruiser
High Maneuverability
8 Orcalic Phasers
9 Plasma Cannons
20 Pulse Orcalic Phaser Turrets
Sheilds/Cloak/Ablative Armor
500 Total personnel

Jaguar Destroyer
Super High Maneuverability
5 Orcalic Phasers
5 Plasma Cannons
1 Ion Disruptor
Sheilds/Cloak/Ablative Armor
150 Total personnel

Manta Fighter

Ultra High Maneuverability
1 Orcalic Phaser Turret
2 Orcalic Pulse Phaser Turrets
25 Gravity Mines
Ablative Armor
1 Total Personnel


And finally, the logistics ships and stations:

Harpy Orcalic Turrets
3 Orcalic Phaser Turrets

Citadel Battle Station
100 Obelisk Fighters
5 Barracuda Destroyers
30 Orcalic Phasers
50 Plasma Cannons
5 Polaron Wave Turrets
Shields/Ablative Armor
5,000 Total Personnel

Exodus Gunship
Low Maneuverability
10 Orcalic Phasers
10 Plasma Cannons
5,000 Maximum Soldier Load
Shields/Cloak/Ablative Armor
100 Total Personnel
50 Harpy landing ships

Phoenix Cargo Ship
Low Maneuverability
5 Orcalic Phasers
Cloak/Ablative Armor
200 Total Personnel

The new ships are more agile then the older ships, but at a cost. Some of the ships have less weapons and fighters, but are in turn faster in battle, and better for closer attacks.

In addition, the Anubite project is finished. Within a few days (RL time), 250,000 Anubites will be pulled into military force, raising the surprisingly small land army from 500,000 some troops (not counting heavy artillery) to 750,000 troops. The military forces are expected to look like this in a month (RL time):

5 Fleets:
The 1st 2nd and 3rd Fleets each Contain:
3 Titan Battleships
15 Pyramid Heavy Cruisers
25 Poseidon Light Cruisers
50 Barracuda Destroyers
5 Exodus Gunships
20 Phoenix Cargo Ships

The 4th and 5th Fleets each Contain:
3 Leviathan Battleships
15 Oceanus Heavy Cruisers
25 Centaur Light Cruisers
50 Jaguar Destroyers
5 Exodus Gunships
20 Phoenix Cargo Ships


5 Armies (all in reserve):
Each Army Contains:
50,000 Hoplite Infantry
50,000 Centaur Cavalry
50,000 Anubite Heavy Troops
50 Zeus Mechs
50 Hyperon Mechs
50 Chariot Tanks

Special Forces:
1,000 Trident Guards

Defenses:
5 Citadel Battlestations (one in orbit of each inhabited planet)
50 spears of Harpy defense turrets (5 covering each inhabited planet/moon/node to Earth).
