Oh, and I forgot, the ships can hold up to 75 star-fighters.

(OOC: Ok to start, but...ummm...What's with the concrete?)

The Crimmond navy is interested, but wishes to know how many refits these ships have recieved and the stats of the central proscessing core.

We also look foreward to testing these shields against our own weapons.

((not a daunting task in FT...))

(OOC: Ummm... Easy? I don't really like tech contests, but I think that you really need to reconsider some of the stuff that you're putting on the hull... My carrier alone already carries weapons that can blast through that like a flamethrower on butter. Not to mention half of the other FT nations out there.

What level space tech are you?)

Korgarein Fleet Command, Admiral Helgor's Office;

A man walks into the office where Admiral Helgor is setting, going over morning reports.

"Sir, Fleet Sell lists are in."

"Good, let me see them."

The Admiral glanced over the report and started to go onto the next when he thought of something. He took a seconded look.

"Concrete?... concrete?... Very interesting. And odd, but oh well."

"I dont know sir."

He places the file in with the rest to be filed away.

What level space tech are you?

[OOC: Uh... lets see. Can cross the galaxy in a few months, but choose not to leave Sol. And yeah, maybe it isn't all that hard. But note the shields. If they can indeed stand up to that, whatever you have left afterwards will probably be stopped by the concrete. I'll probably strip it off, though. Probably end up refiting the entire fore superstructure and stripping the weapons in preference for my own.]

Good point. Although, I responded to the concrete without knowing what his idea of a full bombardment is.

Still though, concrete just struck me as impractical for a space ship at all. Not to say that I haven't considered its possible uses before.

Northwestern Atipica would consider purchasing one of your ships, as the country has none of its own. Furthur deliberation upon reply.

A: The Concrete is basicly to stop any weapons like rockets that could penatrate the Dura-Steel more easily.

B: My level of Space Tech was just below average and these were my capital carriers for my old fleet, which was made basicly for defense but now I'm going for a more offensive fleet, and I advise you if your looking for a main carrier for an armada.. look somewhere else. These are better in a supporting carrier role in a larger offensive fleet but these are excelent for defense.

C: The Ships recived matenance once every 6 months during peace-time and once every 2 months (or when considerable damage was taken) during war-time.

D: The Central Processing Cores never failed but the Sonji's core was near a hull breach once. Otherwise they've been perfect.

E: Full Bombardment is classified as up to 50 fighters assulting the ship and up to 4 crusiers and/or corvettes giving it everything they have or it can be classified as 2 flagships and 20 fighters assulting it with full power...

remember: these ships are 1st come 1st serve, there will be NO BIDDING

The Sale is closed. I have traded these ships for a Paragon-Class Star Dystroyer
