Fighter Docking Capcity: 450 Droid Fighters (Verpine Model, R&D upcoming) Also, assorted troop transports to carry invasion force to a planet.

Description: Large, ovoid- has been compared to Ssi-ruuvi ships in general shape as well as function, the ships appears to be almost a sphere, however the rear tappers off and gargantuian rectangular opening allows for the mass deployment of the 450 droid fighters in a quick perodi of time. (Think a big sphere with a tunnel shaped opening welded onto the back of it.)

Purpose: Designed by the Verpine controlled Roche Engineering, the Shockwave Attack Carrier was designed to provide the Diversity Alliance a powerful capital warship, as well as bring into play an enormous number of fighters. The ship also can serve as a platform for planetary invasion, and provides the Diversity Alliance with a ship to carry soldiers. The Verpine droid fighters have independent droid brains, allowing them to run independently of an on shipboard control, eliminating the need for droid controllers, as well as pilots- a good portion of the crew is actually repair techs who work on damaged done fighters. The large circular front portion of the vessel contains all major shipboard systems, including multiuple docking bays to hold the huge collection of fighters. The exstension serves two purposes: 1) as a quick launch/recovery point for fighters, 2) Docking space for troop transports of invasion force.


OOC- No special systems, the ships internal docking bays can only carry droid fighters designed by the verpin, no other models are compatable. The extension could hold other fighters if the troop transports were removed (however I'll never do this so its a moot point.)

*edit* Increased length by 500 meters and dropped Ray sheilding by 1,500, hull by 1,000
