Xanthalian spacecraft

Auxiliary

Fĕrĕt

The Fĕrĕt [Ferret] is a small, self-contained mobile sensor platform that can be used to extend the effective range of a ship’s sensors and locate specific targets remotely. Equipped with preventative defenses and anti-projectile lasers, it is a very powerful detection and basic analysis tool. The Läböl model also carries a space-time bubble generator.

• Dimensions: 10x5x5 meters.
• Decks: not applicable.
• Cost: Free imported as replacements from Valinon.
• Powerplant: 1 micro-fusion reactor (1 kilowatt output).
  • 2 backup fusion batteries (1 kilowatt output each).
• Space-time bubble generator.
• Fuel range: 6 days reactor, 4 hours per battery.
• ECM Defense Suite
• Mirage-class stealth suite
• 2 point defense laser clusters

Wĕko

The Wĕko’s interior is simply a padded compartment, just big enough to hold its two occupants. Powered with a large lithium battery, its only systems are a simple carbon dioxide scrubber, maneuvering thrusters, and distress signal emitter, all automatically activated upon ejection and operated by a tiny onboard computer with the help of proximity sensors. With no space-time bubble generator and no defenses, the Wĕko is a very basic, straightforward escape pod.

• Dimensions: 3x2x2 meters.
• Decks: not applicable.
• Cost: $5,000.
• Powerplant: One electronically charged lithium battery (50 watt output).
• Maneuvering thrusters.
• Fuel range: 1 day.
• Complement: 2 occupants.
• Armor rating: 1.

Combat

Hokäl

Designed as a complement to the Jĕl, the Hokäl Class guard ship is all but useless in close-quarters combat. It is designed for long range forward assault. With its pylons deployed it exposes auxiliary forward shield projectors, four offensive grade laser cannons, a high-powered antiproton cannon, and its main weapon: 56 häksä bays, each loaded and ready with a häksä that can be fired either alone or in formation with the ship’s others. Only the häkse are used under normal circumstances. The ship’s energy weapons are reserved as last-resort offense and defense at close range. Guard ships must have the support of lighter craft to be effective in combat.

Jĕl

The Jĕl is the foundation for the Läböl's defense forces, excelling far beyond galactic standards in speed and maneuverability. It compensates for its weak shields with two highly accurate laser cannons, which it uses to shoot down enemy projectiles and weaken the shields of enemy starships. Its main weapon is the powerful forward-mounted antiproton cannon, used primarily for offensive purposes. The Jĕl carries no häkse, making it more defensively vulnerable in planespace, but a single-barrel railgun on the ventral hull increases its combat versatility.

Lĕsö

The Lĕsö Class patrol ship is designed to be an all-around warship, specialized for independent operation and defense. Equipped with a full array of powerful weapons, the Lĕsö Class is a very solid attempt to incorporate all the best design elements the Läböl has at its disposal into a single vessel. The result is a quick, relatively long-range starship with strong offensive ability. The Lĕsö Class has two significant handicaps however. Firstly, because of its powerful weapons and shields, fuel range becomes an issue during extended periods of alert. Secondly, because of its size and often operating away from other combat vessels, it is practically vulnerable when combating more than a few targets at a time.

Command

Ämsi

Ĭntr Yäzö Voyäl

A large, well-defended facility designed to serve as a command post and staging area for Läböl personnel and operations, modified for mobility and planespace travel. Equipped with station and fleet command centers as well as internal docking facilities for shuttles and external ports for larger ships, it can also service and supply other vessels, more so than the normal Ĭntr Yäzö. It is very slow compared to starships, but still capable of 500 meters per second at full velocity in normal space.

• Cost: $600,000,000,000

General purpose

Ălfäşrä

A light, versatile vessel; the Ălfäşrä Class is the ultimate application of domestic and foreign technology to create a multi-role, non-combat starship for any task that the Läböl’s smaller, more specialized vessels cannot accomplish. It incorporates a large number of unique systems and is very expensive to construct and maintain, as a single ship requires the efforts of contractors from several nations.

The Nähästĕksä Class is equipped to hold one or two officers in the cockpit and a single prisoner in a rear compartment. Operable equally well in atmosphere or in vacuum, it generally sticks to planetary enforcement. The Nähästĕksä Class is a remake of an Old Xanthalian military fighter design, and is a very high performance machine.

Special duty

Bodemeä

The Bodemeä Class is built fast and tough. Equipped with advanced long- and short-range sensors, its primary function in times of war is to autonomously scout out enemy fleets, obtain data, and return safely to deliver whatever information it has collected. It has two forward defensive häksä launchers, each loaded with five mines. It is also equipped with aft laser cannons to fend off pursuing ships and projectiles. In peacetime it can serve equally well as a science or courier ship.

Transport

Käleka

The Käleka light transport is the most mass-produced of all the Läböl’s ships. Incredibly functional, most larger ships carry at least one aboard to use both for transportation between vessels and facilities and as an escape vehicle when evacuation orders are issued. Because its facilities total up to be little more than engines and a basic AI for information storage and navigation, the two-compartment Käleka, though small, has a great deal of empty space by volume for transporting people, cargo, or any combination of the two.

• Cost: $500,000.
• Powerplant: One substance/antisubstance reaction chamber (10 terawatt output).

Länjeä

The Länjeä personnel shuttle is a very small vessel designed to carry up to twenty passengers in relative comfort within a solar system. It has no space-time bubble generator, but its powerful ion engines provide quick short-range transportation between planets, stations, and ships. Länjeäe are usually stationed aboard space stations and at planetary facilities.

• Dimensions: 10x6x3 meters.
• Decks: 1.
• Cost: $100,000.
• Powerplant: One substance/antisubstance reaction chamber (10 gigawatt output).

Länyönä

A Säzonä modified for mass personnel transport. Capable of planetary water landings, it can be used to carry and sustain up to 1,000,000 soldiers along with all necessary baggage and equipment to and from surface worlds as well as between facilities in space. The tough, unarmed Länyönä is best suited to delivering into non-combat areas behind established defenses, but it can unload under fire for limited periods by extending its shields, or deploy troops and smaller equipment by Käleka.

• Dimensions: 1,000x200x150 meters.
• Decks: 35.

• Onboard/Detachable vessels:
  • 20 Käleka.
  • 5 Länjeä.
  • 10 Wĕko.

Säzonä

The Säzonä is the heavy cargo ship of the Läböl fleet. Capable of planetary water landings, it can be used to carry large amounts of cargo to and from surface worlds as well as between facilities in space. Though it has the capability to serve the smaller-scale supply functions of the Säzoyl Class, the tough, unarmed Säzonä is best suited to long, direct hauls in non-combat situations. It can carry passengers instead of cargo in emergencies.

• Dimensions: 1,000x200x150 meters.
• Decks: 10.
• Cost: $2,000,000,000.

Säzoyl

The Säzoyl Class supply ship is fully equipped to carry everything from weapons to food to fuel and deploy it where needed. Its versatility allows it to operate equally well as a routine transport ship or as a vital supply line to a battlefront and swap functions as a cargo or passenger ship with a one day refit. It has a long range, but travels more slowly than most combat ships. Lightly armed and moderately shielded, the Säzoyl is usually escorted when any trouble is expected.

• Dimensions: 200x40x40 meters.
• Decks: 6.
• Cost: $750,000,000.
• Powerplant: One substance/antisubstance reaction chamber (100 petawatt maximum output).

Sĕgno

A very small craft, what few facilities the Sĕgno shuttle has are devoted to making its single passenger comfortable. The simple but elegant command center is alone in the forward compartment, where the pilot (if one is aboard) spends his or her time. The rear compartment has a small lounge and bedroom area, as well as limited storage for consumables. On solo missions, the Sĕgno can be set to autopilot if the occupant wishes to retire to the rear compartment. While it is only intended for one passenger, the VIP facilities of the Sĕgno easily accommodate two. Thus, it can operate effectively with one, two, or three occupants. It also has a single, forward-mounted laser cannon to deter attackers.
