Looking forward to the battle, and of course seeing the spoils after conquering the homeworld. Do you believe in cleansing by nuclear fire, or an honourable ground assault?A mixture of both, since I've only got 3 full divisions and 12 replenishment battalions. We're going to not even bother assaulting PDCs and just smash them with tac-nukes from orbit.

The role of this ship is as a replenishment ship. It carries enough fuel, spare parts, and ammunition to resupply four Fenris class escort cruisers, in addition to refilling the bomb-stockpiles of the Orion class destroyer and a Daedalus class scout carrier along with it. It also carries a monofilament tow cable, allowing it to tractor damaged ships. It's not a space vehicle intended to be deployed in combat, having a very low speed, even slower than recorded Gliesian ships. Six of them are requested for completion by mid-2286, so that the entire line of cruisers in the first fleet has at least one full ammunition resupply.Lysander class Minelayer 25,000 tons 571 Crew 5280 BP TCS 500 TH 1500 EM 0

The general principle is mostly my own idea, the design itself was cooked up by much more learned men than myself however. It's based on the Daedalus class scout carrier, however the hangar decks and point defence weapons were all removed and replaced with massive magazines to store 42 "Limpet" space mines, as well as the mine droppers that deploy them. To save on tonnage with the introduction of the heavier systems, we have stripped five layers of armour from the original Daedalus also.Missile Size: 58 MSP (2.9 HS) Warhead: 0 Armour: 0 Manoeuvre Rating: 10

Straightforward. The Styx is designed to carry salvage crews. We haven't attempted to actually examine in detail any of the wrecks we've encountered in neutral territory. Now that we have the supporting theories, we intend to change that. Five of these ships are requested as part of the Baggage Train of the 1st Fleet.
