    Raegris Defence Fleet (Tier 1 NS Ally)


    The Raegris are a fast growing power, they have spent a lot of money on NS hardware and have some good home-built designs.

    4 DC-1 Uhm'Waa / Quasar Battlecruiser

    The DC-1 is the ex-NS Quasar cruiser. 6 were bought in 2105 and became the flagships of the RDF. All ships were upgraded in 2109 (to bring them close to NS Quasar ILU standard). In Raegris service the DC-1 has been fitted with extra close-in laser weapons. The ships have also been fitted for mine laying, static mines being a key part of Raegris defence. The surviving ships are to be sold back to NS.



    8 (+10) RC-2B/C Yel'Tema / Cosmos Cruiser

    The RC-2 will be familiar to HCS personnel, being the design which was licence built by the Clones as the Cosmos cruiser. The RC-2 is a powerful design and is the backbone of the RDF. The RC-2 differs from the Cosmos in not having the large supercannon. The NS have updated the fleet to RC-2B standard, with a turreted Z-cannon and a transphasic missile launcher. The Raegris are building new ships to an improved RC-2C standard from 2113. RC-2Bs will be upgraded to C standard at a later date.


    9 DF-1 He'Taka / Isometric

    The DF-1 is a frigate based on the NS Terran Sea Type D and Isometric-E designs. All will be upgraded to a similar standard to the NS Mediterranean Sea.

    0 (+12) "Repulse"

    These ships are a localised version of the Repulse destroyer. The first 3 will be NS built with the rest home built. Expected from 2124.

    10 (+5) PC-1 Gu'Telis / Pentekonter

    The PC-1 is based on the Pentekonter-E which is being produced by the Raegris and NS for export orders. It is used for training and local defence duties. Deliveries began in 2110.

    2 (+3) KA-1 Norenka / Olympus

    These carriers will support the Ferret UCV force. Introduced from 2114.

    230 (+135) MQ-5BR Ferret-GR

    Unmanned combat space fighters, these entered service from 2114.

    3 WF-1 Ku'Yema / Extender

    These are Raegris customised versions of the Extender-E oiler, introduced after 2114.

    Porquat 640 Space Navy (DDS satellite)


    Porquat 640 has rebuilt it's fleet after the disastrous war in the early 2100s which almost totally wiped out it's fleet. Now they are Tier 1 DDS allies.

    5 Xian 508 Cruiser

    The Xian 505 cruiser was the major combatant of the old Porquat 640 fleet but all were destroyed in the war. The new Xian 508 has updated systems and firepower as well as a more extensive C3 suite. The Xian acts as flagships for the Porquat fleet squadrons.

    4 Quagan 658 Frigate

    One Quagan 658 was the sole survivor of the P640 fleet after the war. For a time it was operated by the Aritans but now has been returned to the Porquatians. The Quagan is a nimble and powerful warship, in some ways an inspiration for the DDS Panther design. The 5 ships were upgraded systems and weapon wise to the later 665 standard in 2113 but will be rebuilt and merged into the 665 from 2118.

    22 (+2) Quagan 665 Frigate

    The Quagan 665 is an upgraded version of the 658 with a secondary armament as well as more internal space for troops, weapons or supplies. The 665 is slightly larger than the 658 as a result.

    8 Pentekonter 632 Frigate

    These Pentekonter-E100s perform local patrol duties and policing.

    (0+5) Pentekonter 633M Minesweeper

    From 2125.

    90 MQ-5AP Ferret-E Unmanned Space Fighter

    Used for orbital defence and training.

    These carriers will act as motherships for the Ferrets. Deliveries from 2116.

    2 Teknan 902 Combat Support Ship

    Based on ex-commercial freighters of the Tarbotian Uranakan class. These have been fitted out for carrying troops and combat supplies though these days mostly serve in the intelligence gathering / reconnaissance role.

    6 Extender 908 Oiler/Transport

    The new backbone of the P640 transport fleet are these Extender-Es and the Provider-Es below.

    2 Provider 925 Transport

    3 Isometric-EMM2 Frigate

    The most powerful part of the Molab fleet are these mid-spec Isometric-Es which have been upgraded to fire TPMs and received sensor updates in 2118 as part of an upgrade to EMM2 standard.

    This frigate is a dedicated mine warfare control ship. It will be upgraded to EMM2 standard in the 2120s when it is replaced as a mines warfare control ship by a Depender.

    3 (+10) Dinomark XT Patrol Ship

    40 (+60) MQ-5AM Ferret-E UCV

    Molab will receive 100 of these UCVs from 2113 which will operate with QPM. The Isometric-EMMs will act as mother ships.

    2 (+1) Provider Transport

    Deliveries of these transports (operated jointly between the Molab military and a civilian company) began in 2110.

    6 Extender Oiler/Transport

    These ships form the backbone of the Molab transport fleet. There are a number of older types also operated but these are gradually being phased out of service.

    11 Coril Shuttle

    3 Tarbot built versions of the Coril are already in service, several NS built Coril-Es are also on order.

    Bolitic Confederacy War Fleet


    The Bolitic are a warlike nation with a powerful fleet. The Bolitic go for large powerful ships and all are classed as battlecruisers. Its not known if the Bolitic will follow the trend for smaller more agile ships. The Bolitic are a strange race whose technology is a bizarre mixture of the archaic and advanced. Ship numbers are vague, Bolitic Houses keep their strength secret from each other and also often hide ships, even pretending they have been destroyed, the below numbers are low estimates.

    26 Furl BS7500

    This new generation heavy cruiser replaces the Snarl in production. Unlike previous generations of heavy cruiser the Furl is more agile and multi-role.

    M : J95 triple-core nuclear drive
    S : 800c
    A : Proton cannon, various other cannons and missiles

    9 Reptoli Tuul BS6809

    These Utrek ships have been transferred to the Bolitic fleet and are operated by the Chosen Men elite troops of the Emperor. The RT is said to have a speed exceeding 800c and is equipped with a number of high-power energy weapons.

    M : Hedris Morlak drive
    S : 800-830c
    A : Stinger cannon, auxiliary guns and missiles

    28 Snarl BS4040

    The Snarl is the current main type in Bolitic service. Like all Bolitic designs its large, powerful, well protected and lumbering. Its top speed is reported as being 300c. Though recent technology transfer from the Utrek may have boosted the speed of some by over 100%.

    (Data for latest BS4040F Snarl-F)
    M : 3 x J89M engines with Utrek hyperspace booster system
    S : 750c
    A : Proton cannon, various energy cannons, missiles



    35 Helwin BS4004

    The Helwin was the previous front-line design before the Snarl. Its still a powerful ship, though now a little too slow topping out at 240c. The HCS once operated 3 of these as part of their fleet but later sold them back to the Bolitic. The Bolitic are currently updating some of the older ones.

    M : 3 x J56A-U engines
    S : 240c, some updated to 300c
    A : Various energy cannons and missiles



    103 Meltinan BS2062

    The Meltinan is a smaller type like a scaled down Helwin though some types more resemble the Redhull. Its used for general purpose and patrol duties especially in the more remote parts of the Bolitic Confederacy.

    (Data for BS2062L Meltinan-L)
    M : 3 x J50Q-E engines
    S : 600c
    A : Various energy cannons and missiles, multi-role gondola
