 --- I designed this ship after seeing the truly mind-blowing costs of operating even a single Sol Class Battlecruiser, hence the oddball designation of Light Battlecruiser (BCL). To this end the Terra Class is half the size of the Sol, and instead of requiring a Transit Class Jumpship the Terra Class carries its own integrated Jump Drive. Most weapons have been downsized, while the Survey Sensors and Science Department are gutted. A pair of Strength 14 ELINT Modules give this class the option to carry out intelligence gathering if the opportunity arises. Class 2 Attack Munitions, essentially a bigger version of that found on the Aggressor-Class Strikefighter give the Terra Class a way to attack Beam-centric enemies. "Seeker" AMMs double as Anti-Fighter Munitions and allow the Terra Class to thin out salvos and reduce the enemy's war potential before it needs to rely on its Point Defense Grid and Shields. Having 30% more armor than a Sol Class, but less than half the shields means that the Terra Class furnishes less protection overall, however it is also less vulnerable should its shields be defeated. A reduced compliment of parasite is the only other large change of note.
