The Liberation-Class is the largest ship in the Continuum Navy, and the largest ship humanity has ever built. It is also the first ship to be constructed via 3D-printing, thanks to Orion Foundries' new Solar Shipyard, a fully autonomous shipyard that is in geosynchronous orbit on the Veneran star and uses the same star as its power and materials source (Think Star Forge of Star Wars EU). The Liberation-Class serves as a fleet carrier and flagship to its designated fleet, and is meant to fill in the roles of starcarrier and battleship. It features a unique twin double-deck runway system which allows it to launch and receive multiple craft at once and is capable of carrying a 500-craft strike force. It is also heavily-armed with ion batteries, ballistic coilguns and railguns to defend itself once its escorts are taken down.

@Ephwurd, so much going on for backstories .(o_0)
This'll probably get over the top when I hop in though. I'm still thinking how to go about with introductions for the race I made.
@Ephwurd yep
@PyrusEnderhunter so we have basically the same methods, just different executions. Very nice
@Ephwurd the calculations for short range travel are ultra precise.
@Ephwurd we use the property of E=MC2. We use pure energy in a hyper concentrated beam. Which creates a wormhole. For short range, we use something known as fabric pulse, where we bend space into a sort of sling shot... and make it fire the space craft forward at incredible speed.
@PyrusEnderhunter yes I'm in charge of that. But let me ask something. The Continuum uses two FTL methods, Slipspace (like in Halo, for long-range travel, and can be opened via Gate structures or onboard Tunnel Generators), and Spatial Distortion drives (for shorter distances, basically just bending space around them). What does ISFOS use for FTL travel?
@Ephwurd oh. Ok. Did not know that they think they are gods... well, time to prove them wrong XD
@Ephwurd yeah. Then the I.S.F.O.S gets triggered at the Tors XD
@PyrusEnderhunter Tors are atheistic, they think they are gods with their mastery of bioengineering (although they suck terribly at ship-to-ship combat). The reason ISFOS agrees to help humanity is because when humanity sent a list of all Tor bioweapons to them, they discovered that one of those weapons was of Alcurvian origin
@Ephwurd but yeh. Here is a little scenario:
*TOR CAPTAIN: "Slaughter those deformed apes!"
TOR ANALYST: "Captain, we are detecting multiple ruptures in space time"
-a fleet of I.S.F.O.S dreadnoughts appears
TOR CAPTAIN: -face turns white*
@Ephwurd u make the first TOR war ok?
@Ephwurd oki. Also, it's SENTIAN. Not I.S.F.O.Sian
@Ephwurd the Tors worship Alcurvians... little do they know that the Alcurvians technically truce with humanity
@PyrusEnderhunter here is what I have planned: An ISFOS exploration ship goes to Continuum Space after detecting multiple artificial signals which were markers of intelligent life, only to find out that humanity was deep in war with the Tors. The exploration vessel's captain meets with one of the Continuum Battle Fleets' admirals, then a temporary alliance is formed. Then the ISFOSian captain sends a message to the ISFOS command to send a detachment of warships to assist humanity.
@Ephwurd well, the bio-weapon, nicknamed Alreo, the Promethean word for (weaponized microbe), was gonna be scrapped... but then a terrorist activated it....
@Ephwurd yep... darn Alcurvian wanna-be's XD
@PyrusEnderhunter It'll take longer than 50 years, bruh. Far longer. @reCarn explained to me the physics behind that in detail. But still that is how the war ended, and the super plague was the Alcurvian's own bioweapon which they planned to use but failed ( which was again reverse-engineered by the Tors thousands of years later.)
@Ephwurd also, WHEN WILL ZE I.S.F.O.S MEET ZE CONTINUUM?
@Ephwurd that's actually how the war ended... after the star (named Alphillius Taurus btw) exploded, the I.S.F.O.S and Alcurvians made a truce.... but then the Alcurvians were getting attacked by a super plague... and we never heard from them again...
@Ephwurd ur right. The ship, when crashing into the star, almost crippled the star. It was an Alcurvian system. It took 50 years for the star to explode. Within that time span, the I.S.F.O.S worked WITH the Alcurvians to evacuate all the civilians there.
@PyrusEnderhunter I get it now. It would indeed destabilize the star's stable reaction, but it wouldn't go supernova within the course of our lifetime.
@Ephwurd and not a city sized CHUNK of iron... a city sized POWER CORE of iron. Inside is octillions of iron molecules.
@Ephwurd nah, hardly enough. I'm thinking Moon-size solid iron sphere. A city-sized one would surely accelerate to supernovae but present observers may still not witness it in their lifetime. Probably.
@reCarn he said a city-sized chunk of iron, I doubt that will cause significant damage.
@Ephwurd he's got a point since a star is a product of well balanced fission amd fusion reactions and recycling the materials very efficiently in a near equillibrium system. "Near" since the star will still die out after some time. Adding iron will most likely degrade the balance quickly, causing a premature supernovae. Mind you, that'll take a large amount of iron.
