Profile:
The Dark Glory, is the
single-largest` vessel every constructed by the Decepticons. It was
built to be the primary base in Megatron's new empire. It was thought
to be more logical to construct a mobile fortress which was more
heavily fortified than a 'land-locked' base on a potentially vulnerable
planet. The Glory was built
at the Sky'arx Shipyards (the empire's primary, and first, facility of
that type). The Dark Glory
incorporates 95% technology either created by Megatron's mysterious
benefactors, or else technology of theirs which has since been enhanced
upon by the Empire.
It is hoped that within ten years time, the empire
will have no less than five Cybertron-class vessels to protect its
holdings and to deploy conquest and cyberforming forces more quickly.
Currently, the Dark Glory's
sister ship, Dark Storm, is
60% complete.
Abilities:
The
Dark Glory is 25, 000 m
in length, and carries a standard crew of 750 000 personnel. If can
carry up to 250 000 more in emergency situations. It is defended by
dual-layering energy shields, and its weaponry includes 725 laser
batteries, 610 particle beam batteries, 560 missile launchers, and 428
photon pulse burst" launchers. The Glory also possesses complete
physical and electronic cloaking capability-rendering the ship
invisible to any known form of sensor device. The ship has 4 main
docking bays, and 18 smaller docking bays for fighters and cargo
transfers.
