History of the Ship:

The Langford was built as a self-sufficient exploration vessel. As such, it has manufacturing capabilities to sustain itself without a logistics chain. Her oroginal mission was to build alliances in her home universe.

Unfortunately, due to various screw-ups and background string pulling, she ended up with a crew that was made half from geniuses that could build terrifying instruments of destruction, and half from would-be war criminals wishing a motherfucker would.

As such, when the Langford stumbled upon a small Lucian operation while attempting to contact their first world, they ended up obliterating a sizeable space force and capturing as many enemy vessels as all previous prizes of the entire Stargate program combined, making heavy use of chemical and nuclear weapons.

Shotrly after, the Langford responded to a Lucian occupation of Langara, where they destroyed two Ha'Tak despite Lucian plants sabotaging the weapons systems and liberating the planet.

During the last altrecation, other plants assassinated dr. Falk, who was the original host to the Tok'Ra Vanja, and wounded both Idalia, the original host of Ariadne, as well as Colonel Black. Vanja managed to find new host in Dr. berg, whereas Ariadne left Idalia, whose wounds were beyond repair, for the Colonel who recovered thanks to the Tok'Ra's boost to healing.

Afterwards, the Langford was recalled to Earth - Officially for refits and to have the wounded crew recover, although the IOA actually intended to regain control of their own ship from the hamds of the ‘Space corsairs'.

While en-route though, the Colonel was approached by a familiar face. An ascended dr. Jackson from a reality alternate to their own requested their presence for a special transdimensional mission, for which he needed 'a ship full of nukes and people not afraid to use them'. Needless to say, the crew agreed to help.

- Transporters
- Anti-replicator weaponry
- Goa'Uld healing devices

History of the Ship: Forced out their own universe the Cylons used a new tactic when the nukes, Baystars and other efforts failed to take down the antiquated but resilient Battlestar, its heavy ablative armour and system redundancy designed to withstand nuclear attack and hit back. Its systems being so old they could not be hacked and disabled like her modern sisters.

The new weapon lured the Battestar into an area of space laced with rare elements and executed an ambush from inside the remains of a fleet of civilian vessels they had destroyed prior, luring them in using the distress calls. The moment they made to jump out and escape the trap the second trap activated sending their jump drive at the moment of firing out of control. They assumed the event tore the ship apart but something guided them to a new fate, forcing the crew to face a new apocalypse as they had narrowly outran the first and second Cylon Wars.

Joining the Expedition they had no choice, the new world was facing grave peril and their home was already destroyed, They had to fight for the one they found themselves in. Her crew is battered, bruised but proud and the ship has not let them down yet, so they will not fail her.

The Battestar is determined to redeem and earn its honour back after the 2nd Cylon Wars. They may die but its better than dieing waiting for the enemy to come for them.

Her hull bears still it's battered and burned red markings proudly, it's hull plates are burned, battered and dented but solid. It might look an a little care worn outaide and in its corridors but it's systems function well.

1x Wizardactyl Zord

History of the Ship: Millions of years ago, as the Cybertronian Civil War raged, an ancient warrior by the name of "Trypticon" was one of the most cruel and despised titans on the side of the Decepticons. His constant duels against the Autobot Titan "Metroplex" were stuff of legends. However, near the end of the battles on Cybertron, he was locked into his Alt-mode and used as a the Decepticon headquarters for the longest time.

After the end of the Civil War, the Nemesis was captured and put to use as a part of the new Cybertronian Defense Fleet. However, after one battle against the Machine Empire, the Nemesis was left badly damaged with only a mechanic and a janitor as the survivors. It was onto this badly damaged ship that a woman and her two sons found the key to the defence of time itself. Taking the ship to KO-35, it was upgraded with a working Timedrive and shapeshifted to serve as a new Astro-Megaship. Inside Trypticon slept as its body was used to fight against the foe known as Paradoxicus and his Paradox Navy. It wasn't until an incident where they met a creature calling itself "The Last Light" That Trypticon was awakened. Agreeing that Paradoxicus is truly the greatest foe known to anyone, it agreed to continue allowing the Power Rangers to use it as their vessel and helps them, serving somewhat the role of a Carrierzord.
Notable Crew:













Optional, but helpful:
Unique Technology: Morphing Grid Technology (Special magically powered technology that draws its power from the Morphing Grid)
Although the ship has access to a working Time Drive, its use is heavily restricted due to attempts to change history releasing dangerous amounts of "Paradox Particles" which their enemy Paradoxicus is attempting to compile. Meaning that they CANNOT attempt to go back in time and change something that they were directly involved in.

One of, eventually, fifty of the class commissioned into service by the RMN Bureau of Ships in 1921 PD, 'Corvus' had barely managed to get her working-up trials completed before thrown into the Defence of Manticore against the Solar League Navy. While a brief engagement, this abrupt battle allowed its relatively-green crew to become acclimatised away from simulations and trials into a life-or-death battle.

Barely had the scars of battle been repaired, 'Corvus' was recalled to be attached to the Grand Alliance Fleet, headed by Admiral Honor Harrington. To Captain Hammond's surprise, as soon as the Fleet slipped its moorings for the Sol campaign against the League, the battlecruiser was detatched from the fleet and sent on assignment elsewhere. At present, the battlecruiser is approaching its mantriple point for an impeller jump - now, CTN Hammond and his crew will find out where, and why, they have been sent to an unknown corner of the galaxy ...

History of the Ship:

The Normandy and it's crew have been at the forefront of their universe's fight against their own great filter in the form of genocidal machines. Theirs are quite a bit larger than the replicators, however this crew has experience fighting theasses of their thralls.

The ship is unique in its stealth capabilities, which are good enough to fool the sensors of the Geth, a local machine race. It is also quite powerful and durable, having bested a Collector cruiser in a 1v1 combat and survived a suicide mission to the galactic core.

After said mission, the ship, originally built by the organization Cerberus, has been retrofitted by the Alliance, just before the Reapers attacked en-masse.

Daniel has plucked them out of their universe on their way to Mars after Earth fell. As such, the ship is heavily undercrewed and lackin it'd usual complement of alien specialists.

Unique Technology:
- Stealth systems
- Kinetic barriers
- Normal space FTL drive

Home Universe/Name of Franchise: warhammer 40k
Ship Class: Viper-class Scout Sloop converted into a grunt assault ship
Role: Boarding ship + troop transport
Physical Size (roughly): ~1km ~0.5km abeam
armaments:
Gunz battery turrets (2x): random assortment of slug throwers and missile launchers that can either underperform (due to misfire) or over perform (due to ork faith) entirely at random, causing the ships firepower to fluctuate moment to moment in battle
Prow Gunz (x1): forward facing assembly of the above to be used while charging for a ram
Boarding torpedoes: short range dumbfire rockets who’s payload consist of boys and grots rather than explosives
Klaw: set of 4 massive blades attached to the front of the ship, used for ramming
Tractor Field: Massively increase the gravitational imprint of a vessel several times larger than itself, which acts like a crude tractor beam, dragging small ships towards it, and making it better at sticking to larger ones.
Boarding chamber: a large chamber behind the armored ram, with earlocks leading out of it, used to either leap from the ship to an implied foe, or to rapidly unload troops onto the ground should the ship land.

Ground detachment:

Every single ork boy is a warrior above all else, and all gretchen can and often are press ganged into fighting. Most battle with crude but effective guns and melee weapons, but there are many ways a boy might specialize, such as into a sneaky Kommando, monstrous cavalry riding Beast Snagga, a jet pack equipped storm boy, big game hunting Tankbusta, or a dakka obsessed Flash Git.

Orks generally use a lot of vehicles and mechs when they can, but most of those aren't good for boarding actions, so the ship wasn’t made with space for them in mind, meaning that part of the freeboota’s armory was abandoned when Da Eskape Plan was put into action. The two exceptions where the Battlewagon Daisy, Mista Nailbrain’s pride and joy, that he just could not leave behind, and a number of killa kans who were just barely able to squeeze onboard due to only being a bit bigger than their boss.

Replacements for the rest of their armory will need to be rebuilt, or, more likely, looted from the locals.

History of the Ship:
Da Eskape Plan started life as a Viper-class Scout Sloop of the imperium of man, but at some point got lost in the warp, and ended up as part of a space hulk, a drifting amalgamation of various ships all smashed together and lost in space. The hulk was discovered, and then commandeered, by the infamous freeboota Kaptin Bluddflagg after his final rampage of an adventure across his old stomping ground of Subsector Aurelia, during which he saved it from annihilation as a result of completing a contract to kill the space marine turned demon prince who was in the midst of causing said annihilation.

Space hulk are a grand prize for any ork, able to carry masses of boys and unpredictable in their movements, perfect for sneaking past defenses and hitting sweet, lootable, worlds, something the kaptain did a whole lot of. He also did a dash of mercenary work on the side just for the fun of it, which went well till they kicked the wrong tomb world at the behest of the adeptus mechanicus and got overwhelmed by the undead robotic necrons that swarmed out of it.

This is where Da Eskape Plan comes in, as it was exactly what its name implies, a kunnin plan cooked up by the Kaptain’s first mate (Mista Nailbrain) for just this kind of dire situation. Having ripped out all the useless scouting equipment to fit more engines, and suitably orkifying its loadout, the ship was intended to be used as a glorified escape pod, a function which it served perfectly.

The kaptain, his important subordinates, and as many boys, grots and snottlings as could fit crammed into the vessel, after which fired its own engines, and blasted clear out of the spacehulk before the necrons finished molecularly disassembling it. The necrons proved sticky however, pursuing Da Eskape Plan across the stars, till the kaptain was offered a way out by a certain godly entity. Of course, rather than just take the deal as was, Bluddflagg was sure to drive a hard bargain, and got a promise of a right proper scrap with some crunchy metal bugs and a chance of looting whatever the bugs hadn’t converted into themselves yet out of it as well.

Unique Technology/Traits:
Ork teknologee: ork technology operates more because the orks believe it will than because of conventional physics, seeming to work far better than its ramshackled construction would indicate (though they still are prone to malfunction). This makes Orks masters of salvage, as broken parts are easily recycled into ‘working’ ones, and an ork mekboy only needs to sort of have an idea of how foreign technology works to start working with it.

Tellyportas: Orks have mastered (with the odd mishap) the art of teleportation, capable of producing short range personal teleporters, or linked teleporter platforms which can be used to transport orks across interplanetary, though not inter stellar, distances. The erratic nature of these devices makes their use by species with less robust physique ill advisable.

Void Shields (possibly non-functional due to the lack of a warp to divert energy into)

Warp drive (possibly non-functional due to the lack of a warp to drive through)

Ork ecosystem: Orks, Gretching, snotlings and squigs are all the product of a fungal ecosystem that first grows and then births the fungus animal hybrids out of itself, before sustaining them with more conventional fungal fruits. This means that, given enough time, their orks can replace or even grow their numbers at a rate mere animals are unable to do. The ecosystem itself can be spread wherever orks die and release spores of it, making them something of a self replicating biohazard that will likely be tomorrow's problem if the spread is not contained.

Crew Size: 16k krew members, mostly diminutive gretchen/snotlings, plus an unknown number of Squigs

Faction/Operator/Owner: Kaptin Bluddflagg, leader of Bluddflagg’s Freebootas
