Weapon Description:
The KHLD is the ultimate mobile heavy weapons platform. Armed with its companion the KHT, the KHLD is designed to be the guts of a small fleet.
The original design was conceived out of the idea that the standard Star Destroyer needed a facelift. -"Small fleets of say 2 Star Destroyers and a few companion backups are great for getting in and out of a system relatively fast, but they lack the major punch needed to make them highly effective." This quote was heard coming from the Commander Kas Katta, VC, the designer of this ship and weapon.
The KHLD is optimized for high power attacks on shielded medium to heavy cruisers. The weapon has the power of a w-165 Planetary Turbolaser, but is designed for the highly mobile platform that a star destroyer. It fires at a rate of one shot every ten seconds, and after every shot there is a loss of power for ten seconds to all major systems (except life support and communications) as the weapon recharges. If the weapon is fired as fast as it can, the KHLD ship will be shield-less, as well as missing it’s standard turbo lasers, engines, and hyperdrive, for the entire barrage.
Also, the weapon emits an electronic pulse every time that it fires. This pulse will mix the delicate and completely unique firing systems of any other KHLD in system, rendering it impossible for it to fire until the system is fixed. The fixing process is rather simple, and the repair droid assigned to the task can fix it in approximately 12 seconds. This makes it impossible to have more than one shot fired from these ships every 10 seconds, and also makes it impractical to have more than 2 of these ships in any system at any one time.
Weapon Power Description:
As said before, the KHLD is optimized for attacking shielded medium and large cruisers. While it can do substantial damage to a Super Star Destroyer, it’s small size and Achilles heal of shield downtime and pulse makes it unwise to pit the two together.
The true power of this weapon comes when it is situated as the heart of a small fleet. Positioned with two additional SD’s and five or six smaller ships to help defend it, the KHLD can take apart a fleet of Victory class SD’s in 5 minutes. It is also greatly useful for taking down shipyards. A KHLD can hop in-system, fire off 5 or six shots, and hop out of system before the enemy knows what has happened. The damage will be incredible. Months of work will be taken out in seconds. The weapon can turn even the thickest unshielded armor plating into slag in one shot.
Rping restrictions:
Standard "Super weapon" rules in place here, even though this isn't a super weapon. One post to "prime" one post to fire. After the first post, the "Priming" post is replaced with a "downtime" post. This is where the weapon is recharging, and is draining all power.
On Edit:
The weapon emits an electronic pulse every time that it fires. This pulse will mix the delicate and completely unique firing systems of any other KHLD in system, rendering it impossible for it to fire until the system is fixed.

This makes it impossible to have more than one shot fired from these ships every 10 seconds, and also makes it impractical to have more than 2 of these ships in any system at any one time.
Ok, it's a 20 day build time for the weapon, and a 7 day build time for the ship, making it a 27 day build in all.
Also, if a KDY and this KHLD are firing in system together, they don't desycronize eachother.

Kas, please post the approved stats.

Yeah, well, I guess this thread isn't long lost after all.
#18 7:59am 15/08/02
Approved

The stupid ones...
#15 7:19am 15/08/02
Uh... *thinks for a moment* I guess that is correct.
Well... a KDY can do lots of dammage in a decently small ammount of time if it is protected properly.

This seems unlikely if, after every posted "firing" of your laser, a "downtime" post follows.
If you think an enemy is going to wait 10 posts before responding...

Your shameless bandying won't win my approval!
But 1.75 is acceptable. For me, at least.
#12 7:43am 14/08/02
How about a 1.75. I want it to be able to keep up with a fleet of smaller ships.
Love the CT btw
#11 7:38am 14/08/02
.75 hyperdrive?
I'd like this changed, too. To like 3.
#10 6:53am 14/08/02
Hey! Don't forget to look at this one!
#9 10:35am 06/08/02
Ahh, sorry, must have missed that...
I get what you mean, but if he makes it 5000ms, then he'll have to add a bunkload of turbolaser batteries etc and it would become too much like an ESD...
Hence that should probably be ignored. And anyway, with ground based weapons, they have to have alot of extra construction and defences put into their construction time.
#8 5:57am 06/08/02
I explained it already.
It takes twenty days to build a KDY Advanced Turbolaser. This ship is basically a KDY placed on the back of a ship. Therefor, it should take as long to build the ship as it did to build the turbolaser. IE, 20 days. It makes sense.
#7 5:35am 06/08/02
I think he is think more in terms of build time. Wouldn't want 500 of these things running around within ten days of it's completion. Not that THC would be giving it out to people, but you get what I mean.
#6 4:07am 06/08/02
5000ms?? Isstal are you crazy??
Thats pathetic! i mean, a planetary Ion cannon is only 100ms barrel to base.
How the hell did u pull 5000m out of that?
