Capsule Corporation
10-05-2004, 06:23
The Capsule Corporation, with it's recent return to Sol, has begun construction of several new classes of Foldships that excell in 1 on 1 combat.
Previously, Capsule Corporation ships were not much more than Artillery Fleetships. These newer models boast weapons that can launch heavy attacks at broadside and close range, unlike previous designs.
These ships have also been given enhanced atmospheric capabilities, earning these models the title of "Gravship," as they are commonly called by those in the Sol System.

Firebird (Patriarch Based) [Gravship Variant]
Type: Combat Foldship w/ Enhanced Atmospheric Capabilities
Length: 762 meters
Crew: 820 Crew, 150 Mechanics, 100 Pilots, up to 8000 Marines, 25 droids, and 3 central AI (one for mechanical, one for weaponry, and one for information.)
Powerplant: Chlorophusion control chamber
Propulsion: Primary (reversible) Heatpile Engines, RCS Ion Engines, Enhanced Anti-Gravity Engines.
FTL Drives: Capsule Mk II Cascading Hyperspace Fold Drive (also works as Hyperdrive OR fold drive)
Docking Capabilities: 18 MC-Gunships, 144 Mecha (Typically 120 Legolas, 24 Samson).
Weapons: 8 Mk II Rail Cannons (100km/s x100kg) (all forward-fixed), 8 Heavy Turret-Mounted Double-Barrelled Electromagnetic/Energy Cannons*, 112 Turret-Mounted Light Farad Beam Cannons, 2 Forward Torpedo Tubes, 1 Aft Torpedo Tube.
Defenses: A very thick Liquidmetal^2 armor, a Xanthal Type VII Shield, and over a hundred close-defense plasma-bolt cannon turrets.
Environment Capabilities:
Atmosphere: Yes
Re-Entry: Yes
Landing: Water only
Underwater: Yes
*The Electromagnetic Cannon has several firing modes. It may act as a Rail Cannon, firing 100kg slugs at 25 km/s; or a Flechette Cannon, firing heavy shards of metal in a buckshot style; or as a large Energy cannon. The cannon can be easily reconfigured to fire different energies or ammunitions. It is mounted on a turret with adjustable direction, pitch, and in some cases elevation.

Kryptonite Mk II [Gravship Variant]
Note: I don't know if I'll use this one here or not... some people in this forum don't like the Large-Scale Farad System (http://www.bateshome.com/jordan/farad.htm). I'll leave it off the RPs for a while.
Type: Combat Foldship w/ Enhanced Atmospheric Capabilities
Length: 804 meters
Crew: 1080 Crew, 152 Mechanics, 140 Pilots, up to 2500 Marines, 25 droids, and 3 central AI (one for mechanical, one for weaponry, and one for information.)
Powerplant: Chlorophusion control chamber
Propulsion: Primary heatpile Engines, RCS Ion Engines, Enhanced Anti-Gravity Engines.
FTL Drives: Capsule Mk II Cascading Hyperspace Fold Drive (also works as Hyperdrive OR fold drive)
Docking Capabilities: 36 MC-Gunship, 72 Mecha (Typically 54 Legolas, 18 Samson).
Weapons: This ship is built around the Farad System, as you can see from the twin hulls.
Other weapons include 6 Mk II Rail Cannons (100km/s x100kg) (4 Forward, 2 Aft), 12 Heavy Turret-Mounted Double-Barrelled Electromagnetic/Energy Cannons*, 92 Turret-Mounted Light Farad Beam Cannons, 5 Forward Torpedo Tubes, 2 Aft Torpedo Tubes, and 6 Medium Farad Cannons (Forward firing).
Defenses: A very thick Liquidmetal^2 armor, a Xanthal Type VII Shield, some hundred close-defense plasma-bolt cannon turrets, and of course the powerful Farad system.
Environment Capabilities:
Atmosphere: Yes
Re-Entry: Yes
Landing: Water only
Underwater: Yes
Design notes: This variant of the Kryptonite Class has been modified with deployable reinforcement bars between the two hulls for added stability durring normal operations.
