+--- Thread: Battleship "Freya" (/showthread.php?tid=38069)
Battleship "Freya" - Elven - 04-07-2010
Battleship "Freya"
Battleship "Freya" was comissioned on Evora shipyard in 818 A.S. It's considered to be one of the youngest Osiris class battleships in active service. Right now, "Freya" is performing active deep space reconnaise missions, tracking movements of Nomads and the Core in Omicrons. It's main bases are Freeport Eleven and planet Toledo, however it's self-efficient enough to support quite long trips. Evora shipyard is the only shipyard used by "Freya" for repairs.
Fighter support
Unfortunately, hangar bay #1 of "Freya" is damaged, so it's not used. Hangar bay # 2 contains one "Bastet" class fighter used as scout and third bay contains one "Rhino" class freighter, which will be used if ship'll suddenly explode or extreme evacuation will be needed. "Rhino" freighter is used to deliver supplies from Toledo as well, as "Freya" remains in space most of the time.
Propulse systems
Nothing is known about propulse systems of "Freya", however there're rumour this battleship is able to move at reserve speed as fast as at forward speed. That makes all mortar hits quite unreliable. All details about "Freya" propulse systems is classified.
Propulse systems of battleship "Freya" are experimental (based on Daam'K'Vosh technology) , and they proved to be usefull so far. They were designed by one of the top Evora developers, Lucy Morrison. Reverse speed of "Freya" propulse systems can reach about 70 m/s. Right now, dangers of those systems are unknown, that's why they're installed only on "Freya".
Communication systems
So far, it's the main problem of "Freya". It's well known "Freya"s communication systems are quite mixed, commands of decks are often mixed with messages of communication officer Willows. Unfortunately, this issue can't be fixed right now. Willows suppose it's due to propulse systems, as they're taking more energy then it's needed. Evora's technicians were trying to solve this problem for a long time, however they assume problem comes out due to Willows keeping all current channels turned on. However, so far that didn't cause any problems.
Armed forces on board
"Freya" carries about 70 agents, ready to destroy everyone who standss in way of the Order. Unfortunately, their fanatism haven't proven to be useful so far, as "Freya" avoids operations outside of space so far.
Most of them are armed by light arms, but few people there are known to carry light missle launchers, which hurt fighters quite hard. Unfortunately, those are used only planetside.
Impotant people on board
The most impotant people on ship are:
Ship commander - commondore Charles Johnson.
NOTE: Usually is very busy performing some diplomacy - chicks aren't exluded. Willows says this man sits in neural net whole life. However, it's well-known commondore Johnson lost quite many friends in nomad war, so everyone respects him so far.Communications officer - commander Andrew Willows.
NOTE: Is well-known for holding all channels on ship together. Once, he was telling about his grandma to someone and whole ship heard that. So far, he carries commanding power over whole ship, as Johnson trusts him completely.Navigation officer - sergeant Daniel Frost.
NOTE: He yawns too much.Chief of weapon decks - corporal Richard Forest.
NOTE: Has contacts within Kusari, has kimono. There were rumours going through ship he killed nomad by katana once. Hidden sources suggest he's from Liberty, but noone can get Kusari connection to him - or his connection to Kusari.Secretary - agent Rosa 'Miss' Alison. (carries commanding authority over marines)
NOTE: Someone who does all food work on all ship, I think. Willows is using her as..person who delivers everything to his room.Crew list in listed in ship paperwork and documents.
Docking rights
The only people who were allowed to dock on "Freya" were the Order agents, few Zoner supply ships and some strange freelancers. Emergency dockings are allowed on "Freya".
PS Of course, heavy lifters carrying supplies from Toledo are permitted. But only at Toledo's orbit.
