Ra's Star Destroyer (Hegemony-class)

Ra · Post by Ra » Sat Jun 18, 2005 11:52 am

I've taken some time to design a star destroyer. It's from the Imperial Remnant era, a ship to complement the Imperator-class. It's mainly intended as a capship killer, and has a gigantic reactor to power the main batteries. The design is more simplistic than the Imperator, lacking the extensive dorsal terraces. Consequently, her volume is much lower.

The conning tower is inspired by the Venator. However, there is only one bridge, not two. Comments and questions welcome, as always.

[PS: This is artwork, but if the mods think this belongs in Testing, I apologize.]

I think it belongs here.

Does this destroyer have a small fighter compliment for light defence work? or will it be completely solid with generators and Turbo Lasers?

The Hegemony is designed mostly for a antiship role (like the Tector of old), but it does have a fighter compliment. Just not much in the way of ground forces. There are three hangars:

--------------------------Here^------------and-------Here^

The third, obviously, would be on the other side. The dark area with yellow lights is the first hangar, reserved for fighter and bomber squadrons. The cutout on the ventral spine is the other hangar, which sports mostly shuttles and support craft.

Well, thats very good work. I expect they could have with some of those at the Battle of Bastion

A slight update. I added more detail, and shifted things around a bit. More importantly, I added three axial defense turrets (similar to those on the ISD-I) and quad-turrets in the brim notches. A ventral turret also guards the hangar bay. I'm thinking of making it a SPHA-T turret.

Actually I'd say since this is, I'm assuming, suppose to be gaming related somehow for TGODs and such it would go to the OoC board.

It's more fanfic related, actually. I wasn't planning on using it in the TGOD, but you're probably right.

If it's not for the game, it would belong here then.

Nice work, by the way.

Come on, Ra. The Empire doesn't grant you a Star Destroyer for nothing! :D

If you want to use it, I don't have any problem.

Anyway, here's a more significant update. I've finalized the armament, and made more detailed images of the turrets. Added some ion cannons as well.
