Vatre Zvezda And Hooligan

A Knight O Ghosts And Shadows, XIX.

Bodin Miyatovich leads the raid on Chereion in the Nova-class dreadnaught, Vatre Zvezda:

huge;
heavily armored;
intricately compartmentalized;
monstrously powerful in engines, weapons and shields;
chiefly designed to protect its fleet command posts;
spherical;
like a misshapen moon;
bristling with -
 
guns;
launch tubes;
projectors;
sensors;
generators;
snatchers;
hatches;
watch domes.
 
This dreadnaught carries Flandry's speedster, Hooligan, which slips from a boat lock and through a momentary opening in the shielding fields when Flandry decides to fly ahead to scout on Chereion and what happens there we will deffo not discuss tonight.

Kaor, Paul!

It would probably need two or three other super dreadnoughts to seriously threaten the "Vatre Zvezda."

Ad astra! Sean

Correction, the Dennitzan flagship was a DREADNOUGHT, not a "super dreadnought." But still a more than amply powerful warship!
