Imperial Star Destroyer

[Jedilaw]

Not to rain on your parade or anything, but the general assumption with Star Destroyers has always been that whatever missle launchers they have are mounted along the midline trench. You might consider placing some missle turrets in the trench, instead of using nuclear-sub style launch doors. Of course, there's no reason you have to stick with prior ISD designs.

I dont see any rain on my parade. And yes all prior SD did have there launch doors on the side, but since space is a 3D battle field I figured it wouldnt matter where the doors were at. So I wanted to try the Sub style doors. This also fits with my short story, During the rein of Palpatine, he had all types of experiments and projects going on from genetics/robotics for the ultimate warrior to Ungodly space machines of mass destruction. From the Super Star Destroyers/ Death Stars / and I belive Centerpoint Station capable of shooting any target from any where in the galaxy. This falls in line of a experimental SD design wiched focused on the raw destructive power of saturateing the target with torps. Long range support/ plantary bombardment on a chasis in mass production. Can you imagen 3-4 of theese types of SD's playing a support role to a preinvasion planetery bombardment. Sine this ship is a prototype only one was constructed.

@Docprice: Centerpoint Station was built somewhere around 25,000 years prior to SW:IV, and was used to make the Corellian planetary system

Everything else looks good!

[docprice]

Yea you got to it before I could edite my self, I wanted to double check on that and just got finished reading

But Palpatine did desire the power of Centerpoint.

I need some help on nameing the baby, Its being constructed during the Thrawn era and the rise and fall and rise again of Empror Palpatine. Also if I remember my time line correctly this is also a time when more force sensitives were starting to surface. That is Idea #1

Idea#2
The story takes place 30 year after "A New Hope" during the Yuhhzang Vong War Where Commander Drass Orak under the command of Grand Admiral Pealoen the Imperial Reminent as a whole are all to confident that they can repell any attack by the Yuhhzan Vong but the there are other who do not feel so confident and begin to think of ways to better the odds. This SD is one of thoose way, Where it can quickly Saturate an incomeing fleet with multiple vollys of torpedo fire before the defending fleet comes into Turbo laser range.

It is widely known that the Yuhhzan Vong dispise the Jedi and have called forth a galaxy wide bounty for every jedi, proclaiming that they will stop thier invasion if all the Jedi are turned over to the Vong. The Prototype ship on its shake down voyage the ISS Superior comes across a diabled transport ship with heavy signs of battle damage. The Commander decides to bring the ship into its main bay and investigate. There are a few survivors, mostly refugees from the Continueing Vong Onslaught that has left many systems in ruins. One of theese female survivors has captured the intrest of the Commander Drass Orak because she has been identified as a Jedi Le'sier Twailyn. The jedi survivor was taken to medical and placed in a batca tank. Now its know that the Imperial Reminant dose not get along with the New Republic but that dosent mean they are going to surrender thier own people to outside invaders. Commander Orak Reports back to Fleet command at Bastion and is given direct orders to bring The Jedi back to Imperial Space. Moments after reciveing the orders the transport attackers make them selfs known, it was a small strike force consisting of 2 frigate anologs, 3 gunship anologs and about 20 fighters. Now for any other Star Destroyer this would be no match but for an experimental ship ment for long rang assualt and a untested crew this could be problmatic. After 20 mins. of exchangeing fire the attackers were dispatch with the SD takeing minor dmg. But one of the frigate anologs got extremly luck and was able to dmg the Hyper drive system. This renderd a straight jump home impossible. The hyper drive was unstable and lossign power, which ment for a long trip home with a series of short jumps. over the course of the trip home the Jedi and the Commander begin to become close and this leads to the Commanders internal conflict about his orders. He debates this fact many times over with his new found friend and she assures him that his internal conflict is not needed. Apon reaching Imperial space and space dock at Bastion the Jedi is taken from his custody and hurried away in great secreatcy. Later Commander Orak tries to find out what happend to His friend but is given the usual run arround or told that he dose not have clearance. He hears through rumors that the Jedi captive is going to trialed and executed for crimes against the Empire. Letting emotion get the better of him, he decides that this can not happen and begines to come up with a plan to rescue the Jedi.

update: Jedi Knight Le'sier Twailyn was Formaly of the Imperial Reminant Navy. She was born on Bastion the new home world of the Empire. Le'sier was commissioned the same time Drass was in the Acadamy. While serveing in the Imperial Navy she discovered that she was force sensitive, after some deep comptemplation and years of debate Le'sier decided to journey to the Jedi Acadamy on Yavin IV.

Thats all I got right now.

How about "Ball Crusher" (your avatar inspired me)... Nice model BTW...

[liam887]

lol.
send me the SU files ill send you a SU greeble tutorial on monday

[XRaiderV1.7]

nice design and story idea, I'm looking forward to seeing both completed.

During the Thrawn Crisis the Empire couldnt field many if any news ships , most of their hit and fade assualts resulted in grabbing any cruisers, transports, and bulk frieghters they could get their hands on culminating in the assualt on Sluis Van.

But there is no reason she couldnt have been built during the events in Dark Empire deep, deep in the core. From all the pics of Byss there are a good hundred capital ships in orbit at any time.

Missiles are cool and all(and all the big Imp ships had them) but the Empire as well as other factions focused primarily on turbolasers and secondly on ion cannon batteries. Both recharge rapidly but need some down time to cool. Missiles whether they be concussion missiles or proton torpedoes are throw away ordanace- the last line of defence realy. TIE fighters were pretty much the real missiles of the Empire. If something came in just launch a four ship flight of TIEs(they and their pilots where expendable after all to a certain extent). I dont think the Empire could afford to field or would field many such missile secondary ISDs during the time frame you mentioned.. But...shes a prototype and she is YOUR ship. Carry on.

I look forward to reading your completed backstory on her .
