Chapter 2947 Iron Oath Fleet
The third type is the expedition ship, which is the battleship most commonly used by the Far Travelers. This type of ship is usually no larger than a destroyer, and their functions are as their name suggests. Take the Far Traveler team or salvage team of the Business Alliance to perform tasks in remote areas. This kind of ship is fast, very flexible, and has extremely advanced sensors. Its firepower is relatively weak. It is only enough to protect itself and its defense is average.
The fourth type is the Oath Battleship. This type of battleship is closest to the definition of "navy". They are the absolute main force of naval warfare of the Wotan Business Alliance. They are mainly used and controlled by the Oath Regiment. They are also the only ones used by Wotan. The ships classified by the Alliance are divided into Ranger class, Warrior class, Longbeard class, Butcher class, and Hammer class. Wotan's warships are not divided according to human standards. These classes are not entirely based on tonnage, but In terms of firepower, the tonnage of the Ranger class and the Warrior class are almost the same, but the main weapon of the Ranger class is the rail gun battery, while the main weapon of the Warrior class is the conversion beam gun battery and torpedoes. There is a certain gap in the firepower between the two. However, the Ranger class also has a hangar, while the Warrior class does not.
The largest tonnage among them is actually the Nagasu class. The tonnage of this type of ship is similar to that of the empire's large cruiser. However, since it is mainly responsible for ground attack and personnel delivery tasks, it is positioned closer to a battle barge. In terms of firepower, it is not as good as the Butcher class and Hammer class. The tonnage of the latter two is slightly lower than that of the Empire's benchmark heavy cruiser, but they have extremely exaggerated firepower.
Take the Hammer class as an example. If the data given is correct, the overall shape of this ship is a semi-circular battleship. There are eight sets of triple heavy conversion beam turrets on the left and right, and four sets in the front. Two heavy ion beam turrets, 12 heavy rail guns, 36 rotating laser turrets, 16 torpedo and missile launch ports, hundreds of point defense weapons, and the firepower of an Imperial battleship Not much more than that.
From here we can also see the characteristics of Furnace warships. Due to their high level of automation and compact design style, and the fact that Furnace's size really saves space, their ships generally tend to be smaller than humans, but their firepower and defense are lower. To crush human battleships of the same tonnage.
After watching it for more than ten minutes, Soshyan finally had a basic understanding of the Hearthborn's ship, and then he looked at Walker.
"Grandmaster Walker, show me these things, okay."
But the other party smiled and waved his hand.
“In the Wotan Alliance, there are very few things or information that cannot be bought with money. You are the most important trading partner of the alliance now. This is not even a secret, so don’t worry.”< br>
"That's good, I mean. The Nagasu-class is good. This battle is mainly to destroy the Tyranid structures on the surface of the planet. If there is a way to lure the Tyranid fleet away, then use the Nagasu-class's gravity slingshot to suddenly As for the attack, I will personally lead the team to deploy the destruction weapons on the ground. There should be no problem."
"Nagasu-level hmm."
After pondering for a moment, the old furnace man knocked on the ashtray. Knocked on the pipe.
"Just to be on the safe side, how about three Nagasu-class ships plus one Butcher-class ship and one Hammer-class ship?"
"If that's possible, that would be even better."< br>
"Now that you have spoken, there is no reason not to help. I will call the Iron Oath fleet arranged by the alliance to go to the war zone as soon as possible." "Then you will have trouble."
With After Old Walker finalized the lease of the Hearthborn battleship, Soshyan returned to the Cardinal World from the Royal Court. Now the battle plan has to be changed. Not only must we defend, but we must also wait for opportunities to attack, but this is easier said than done. But it’s too difficult.
During this period, Soshyan also waited for the silent fleet of the state religion.
When I saw this huge fleet slowly entering the orbit of the planet in the universe, the scene was indeed extremely magnificent, and the decorations of the warships of the National Religion were extremely exaggerated, although there were often ungrateful aliens mocking the empire. The ship is a mobile church foundation, but at least admit that it is a ship, and the warships of the National Religion are really churches flying in the universe. Taking the Emperor class as an example, their superstructure is as large as the Navy Emperor class. Twice, so to speak, the entire upper deck is taken up by the magnificent golden-domed church.
But don’t think that the firepower of the state religion’s warships has been weakened because of this. In fact, in the face of strong financial resources, the state religion can install any weapons on their warships, and they will not suffer any interference from the Mechanicus. Although I don’t know about the state religion’s warships. Which Forge World helped with the transformation? Anyway, they must be very strict, because these Imperial Emperors are actually stronger in firepower than the normal Emperors. All their side macro cannons have been changed to plasma macro cannons. Although the upper level Many buildings were built on the bridge, but the light spear turret was not affected. The weapons were directly integrated with the buildings, and the number of weapons even increased by one-third, showing extremely high design techniques.
However, considering that there might be a tough battle ahead, Soshyan did not send the fleet out rashly, but just asked them to stand by in the Cardinal World. Then he met with those Macbain The commanders of the regiment can see that these people have been carefully selected by the state religion. Each of them is an absolute fanatical believer. At the same time, they have experienced hundreds of battles and are rich in experience. Once the Macbain regiment leaves its home planet, it is rare. Those who are able to return, these officers also express their desire to make a final contribution to the Emperor here.
For them, all Soshyan needs to do is to issue a few decisions that have been discussed with the state church, such as allowing veterans to become grassroots officers of the Faith Watch. Velez will handle the rest.
However, Tyron's affairs had to be dealt with, and the Screaming Whirlpool gang couldn't let go. Soshyan took some time off and temporarily disappeared from public view.
Returning to the Bone Dynasty of Drazak again, Soshyan transformed into a streak of blood floating over the planet. He was thinking about countermeasures. Although he decided to use the power of the Skinner to teach Sarpedon a lesson, But the problem is that he just tried it in the Skinning Temple, and it seems that he cannot accurately locate the Screaming Vortex. This is probably because the nature of the space there is similar to that of the Eye of Terror, and it is an area between reality and subspace.
The power of subspace is a weakness of the Star God. If the Skinning Temple cannot be reached, then the entire plan can be said to be completely useless.
During the process of thinking, he almost circled the planet. This tomb world was a huge blank world, a sphere made of alabaster-colored inert stone. There are no ups and downs except for the light clouds and mist. There is no temperature in the core of the planet, and there is not a drop of moisture in the thin inert atmosphere. Occasionally, some low hills or gravel-choked valleys will appear on the surface.
Other than that, there is only an endless stretch of smooth white stone, under the endless starry night, without the weakest breeze to disturb it.
