[color=#FFFFFF]With a smash of the champagne bottle, the Indiana was christened by the former Admiral John Talon. The stream-lined gunboat was commissioned for the sole purpose of dealing with multiple hostile fighter or bomber wings. With a traditional weapons array of standard Liberty gunboat turrets, as well as the extra punch of a missile turret, the Indiana was ready for service.
Under the command of Lt. Commander Jack Malrone, the Indiana and her crew are rarely seen engaged in battle With the Lt. Commander preferring a fighter or bomber to take care of the situation. However, when launched, she is a fearsome opponent, utilising rapid changes in liner momentum to confuse the opponents, allowing a well-placed missile to obliterate their hull.

Communications ID:[LN]-LNS-Carson.City Class:Catapult Role:Siege Assault and Heavy Support Status:Active service, stationed at Planet Houston Captain:Captain Curtis Elwood XO:Varies
[color=#FFFFFF]Under the command of Captain Curtis Elwood, the Carson City was the answer given by the Liberty Navy to the ever growing threat of bold pirates attacking in gunboats and destroyers. It's one-of-a-kind Forward gun infused with a plutonium power core gives it the extra burst of power which allows for overcharged shots, causing unprecedented damage upon coming in contact with the targets' hulls.
Primarily serving as a defence platform against pirate raids within the Capitol, the Carson City was ordered to join the battlegroup in the Texas System, to deal with the Rhienland capital ship raids coming from the Adjacent Hamburg system. To allow for further survival in the heat of battle, the Carson City was reinforced with Class VII Triple Layer Nanoblack Armour Plating.
Since the Carson City's primary role is for bombardment of capital ships, it always has a compliment squad of fighters and/or bombers to deal with pirate bomber squads, in addition to it's turrets. The Carson City was issued a while after the Integrity, and thus has slight improvements in the Logistics, Engineering and Gunnery Department. Prolonged reconstruction of the turret placement on the Carson City allowed for a new type of Proton Ballistic Warhead Launcher to be added to the Carson City's arsenal. These missiles are slow, but upon impact, produce enough damage to rival a mini-nuclear detonation.
The engine and manoeuvring is exactly the same as the Integrity, sporting a quad starburst engine configuration, combined with ghostrider manoeuvering thrusters, allowing for continually firing the weapons while evading incoming fire. This is one of the primary reasons why the Carson City is still in active service of the Liberty Navy.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]The Carson City's Greatest strength has always been in the weapons department. The Gunnery crew is on of the most skilled within the Liberty Navy, and thanks to them, the Carson City has a record Kill Streak of 64 enemy ship destructions before being forced to pull out. The Juggernaut nanoblack plating increases the amount of time the Carson City can survive on the battlefield, and allows enough protection if an emergency exit must be made to prevent serious damage to the Carson City's defensive and acceleration systems.
The Montreal is a newly commisioned ship deplyed under the command of Commodore Stephanie Malaign. It was manufactured to be able to deal with both the increasing threat of pirate gunboats, and the bombers they often fly in as well.
It is currently stationed in Newy York, on Planet Manhattan, but it can be called out to any location should it be needed.
Further Details:
Due to its lower cost in maintenance and supplies, the Montreal is able to travel anywhere in Liberty to assist against pirates. The gunboat, with some work has been resurrected from its short retirement into service of the Liberty Navy.

Communications ID:[LN]-LNS-Libertad Class:Catapult Role:Siege Assault and Heavy Support Status:Active service at planet Denver Captain:Commander Alexander Casero XO:Lieutenant Michael Mcloud
[color=#FFFFFF]From the scraps of the Lx894 "Libertad", Captain Johnson's Siege cruiser, the Liberty Navy's engineers on Norfolk Shipyard, built the [LN]-LNS-Libertad. The rumors about the previous Libertad are under investigation of the Liberty Security Force, and the location of the Captain Johnson remain classified to the public.
The design is the basic design for every Liberty Siege Cruiser, it's heavily armored to provide it a longer durability on combat against bomber squads.
The combination of pulse cannons and battle razors is perfect to knock down fighter crafts.
The main gun provides a powerful gun, capable of devastate gunboats and superiors ships, such as Rheinland Cruisers and pirate destroyers.
However the ships was not designed to strike fighters, but for heavy support for the Liberty Navy flagships.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]Some of the former members of Lx894's crew are now assigned to the LNS-Libertad. The outstandings officers are Lieutenant Miguel Mcloud, Sub-Lieutenant Johnnatan Lennard, Sub-Lieutenant Sebastian Stain, and Engineer Rogelio O'Higgins.

[color=#FFFFFF] The Redwood City. A true representation of what Liberty's finest engineers can produce. The second ship in the San Francisco fleet, the Redwood City was commissioned under Captain Seth Karlo to provide effective support without a drain on resources for anti gunboat and cruiser operations. Because Captain Karlo also has command of the mighty San Francisco, while he is not onboard the Redwood City, it is commanded by Commander Sarah Kreller.
The Redwood city is brand new off of Juneau shipyards, and has not yet had time for a full armor fitting. At some point in the next several months the armor rating should be upgraded to provide yet another addition to the impressive array that the Redwood offers.
The Redwood City has been assigned as 'Experimental', though the details of this have not yet been released to this file.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]
The Redwood City is assigned to the San Francisco battlegroup, and thus moves wherever it does. The San Francisco battlegroup is currntly stationed in the Texas system, acting as a defence force against possible Rheinland incursions.
[color=#FFFFFF] The Maryland is a recently recommissioned Dreadnought of older origins as its Monument class suggests. With enemy strike craft becoming ever more intrusive into the strategic plans of the Liberty Navy, the Maryland became the reply to this growing threat. Sporting a completely specialised set of weaponry, the Maryland is capable of dealing with any threats up to and including enemy cruisers, though its speciality remains in dealing with strike craft.
The popularity of the bomber class has skyrocketted in Sirius recently, with both military forces and criminal gangs making it their class of choice. The Maryland was commissioned as an admittedly expensive answer to this problem, but has so far performed in excess of its expectations. The Maryland can handle up to five or six bombers at a time with light support, or perhaps about four with no support at all.
With the continual deployment of capital ships by the Rheinland Military however, the Maryland has found itself operating at the spearhead of internal security operations conducted by the Liberty Navy. When there are just too many hostiles to deal with in a timely manner, the Maryland is called in and disposes of the bulk of their force in short order.
Contrary to popular belief, the crew of the Maryland is a green crew, the majority seeing their first action serving on the recomissioned Dreadnought. This is not evident when assessing gunnery accuracy however, due to the absurdly effective nature of the multiple Solaris Batteries.
In the past, the Maryland was known as the Unity, a key Dreadnought in the run up to hostilities in the first Sirius-wide war from the period 800-801 A.S. The Unity was the Liberty Navy's symbol of a free Liberty and flagship of the Primary Fleet before the resurgence of piracy and terrorism within her borders. Famously, the Unity was ripped apart by the rogue Attack Group South led by the deceased Captain Marcus Walker in high Manhattan orbit. With most hands lost before the crew could reach their own escape pods, the loss of the Unity was a catastrophic event for the morale of the Liberty Navy, and neccessitated an immediate recovery operation around Manhattan. Four years later, the reconstructed Unity was pushed back into service, but performance tests revealed minor flaws that sadly precluded her from retaining her position as the flagship of the fleet. Over the years, the Unity was relegated to the rear ranks and, despite an excellent set of subsequent crews, decommissioned in 810 A.S. The Unity was recomissioned as the Maryland in 817 A.S. by Fleet Admiral Hale to fill a purely supportive role.
Known and loved by the veteran crews that once served on her decks, the Maryland is kept in good condition in respect to her long and impressive history as the previous flagship of the fleet.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]The Maryland represents a hugely successful investment by the Liberty Navy, and despite its operating costs, called into battle many times where friendly forces risk being simply overrun. Capable of holding the line and turning a fighting retreat into a relentless advance, the Maryland is the ultimate tactical asset in modern warfare. In many ways, the Maryland is more of a checkmate move than any Rheinland Battleship could ever hope to be.
Additionally, the Maryland is used to train new crews in the tasks associated with the day-to-day running of a Dreadnought sized warship as well as smooth operation in a hostile situation. Many an ensign has been seen cleaning the hallway with a toothbrush or performing mundane checks on ancilliary equipment, all of which are standard practice for more experienced crews. Combat drills are also commonplace on the Maryland, to get the crew accustomed to the feeling and atmosphere provided by combat.
Armor:Standardized Type VIII "Dusk Shroud" Quadruple-layer reflective armor shielded by an outer layer of hexagon-shaped ablative segments, supported by reactive elements to minimize kinetic weapon damage
[color=#FFFFFF]Recently commissioned under the orders of Admiral Sarah Willows, the Overlord marks the final chapter in the long and distinguished book that is the Overlord-class' history.
The Overlord itself is the result of the long-term research, development and testing by the finest minds in Liberty, a process that began as a pet-project of sorts under the then-Commodore Willows' orders with the commissioning of the experimental Durango many years ago.
Utilizing the improved and standardized variants of the experimental systems employed aboard the Durango, the Overlord features refined algorithms for everything from fire controls to how current is supplied to the lighting within the ship. The Overlord is also armored with the latest in mass-produced armor technology as well as sturdy bulkheads that are made of state-of-the-art materials.
As such, the Overlord-class' final incarnation, the aptly named Overlord, is purpose-built to serve the Liberty Navy as a heavily-armed and armoured command ship in the set-piece battles that are ever-present in the strategic planning of the High Command.
The hull of the Overlord was laid down at the beginning of 817 A.S. under the order of the then-Commodore Willows, and its construction proceeded smoothly until it was brought out of Juneau at the turn of the new year. The shipyard suffered no supply problems despite ongoing wars between Liberty and Rheinland, and her neighbors Bretonia and Kusari, which is a testament to the organizational abilities of the Liberty Navy and, in particular, her Logistics Corps.
Having just come into service, the Overlord is scratch-less and pristine, crewed by men and women selected personally by Admiral Willows and her executive officer, Commander Nathan MacElroy.
Combat tests, as well as an encounter with a Rheinland Battleship in Texas, resulting with said ship's destruction, and another encounter with a Rheinland Battleship in Alaska, resulting in a long and drawn-out chase across half of Sirius, have placed the Overlord at the top of her class. This result is expected, and competitively ranked with the first of the new Goliath class Dreadnoughts that are starting to roll out of Norfolk.
The Overlord is, however, the most expensive and of her class.
Technically, she should be the cheapest of her class, but due to specifications made by Admiral Willows herself, its cost to the state almost doubled. Whilst providing ample and aggressive reasoning for these extra expenses, some of the architects and engineers silently disagreed with the inclusion of a vast trio of recreational decks, one of which some claim to resemble a brothel.
Accompanying the vast recreational area is a large storage bay for provisions that, when fully loaded, could supply the crew on full rations for almost two years without any contact from the outside.
Obviously, halve the rations, double the operating scope and range, as fuel is almost limitless for the efficient mass-energy converters on the Overlord. Combined with the now-standardized Antimatter propulsion systems, the Overlord can operate alone for those outright excessive periods of time, in any kind of territory, with just the support of its onboard strikecraft and no logistics support at all.
Interestingly, one of the ten armouries originally intended to store light arms on the Overlord has been converted into a rack for what can only be described as long leather thongs, apparently intended to be used to fix physical coolant leaks. This is supported by data gathered by Admiral Willows herself, though scientists question the ability of leather to stem even a small coolant leak for more than three minutes. Another has been converted to a maintenance area for a batch of prototype HK-47 Hunter-Killer Robots, another pet-project of Admiral Willows, its roots laying in the then malfunctioning Coffee-Maker Robots that were employed aboard the Durango while the ship was under her command.
With all research and development regarding the Overlord-class of Dreadnought having been completed, and with the focus now shifted to the new Goliath-class, the Overlord is literally the last one of her kind as production of its class has been halted in favor of the new Goliath-class. All other Overlord-class Dreadnoughts have been scheduled for refit and modernization to bring them up to the new standard.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]The delicate command console attached to the command chair on board the Overlord has already been replaced once by engineers on board Norfolk shipyard, who had already prepared three replacements in case such an event should occur.
Also worth noting is that the Overlord's crew is extremely loyal to Admiral Willows and will follow her orders to the letter under all and any circumstances.
[color=#FFFFFF] One of the new Defiant class gunboats built at Norfolk was ready for service. Given to at that time Lieutenant Commander Shade Walker and still under his command ship served whole time without breaks. It provided extensive anti-piracy role in Liberty safe, focusing its power mostly against pirate gunboats which were high at that time. Ship was damaged few times but not enough to keep it grounded for weeks, all repairs were done under the week.
Weaponry on this ship focuses on high damage output and because of that its had low energy efficiency. Weapon setup is universal. Two razors are capable of taking out smaller and bigger targets, with support of missile for smaller and Cerberus turrets and forward gun for bigger targets.
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF] Backbone of crew for now are captains right hand be Lieutenant Roy Maxwell, navigator Lieutenant Craig Ruiz, weapons officer Sub-Lieutenant Clyde Warner and communications officer Sub-Lieutenant Sally Holmes.
Liberty Navy ship Santa Fe, Defiant-class Gunboat had operated in all areas of Liberty. Its most seen in New York.

[color=#FFFFFF]The Halsey was rushed into production following the constant attacks from the Rheinland Military and a concerning jump in pirate activity. Analysts found that the new generation of pirates and hackers were utilising the smaller fighter and bomber craft in an effort to render the Navy’s heavy capital ships useless. To fend off the small bomber craft and keep a balance in a military strike, the Halsey is equipped with several fast-firing plasma turrets and high-powered missile turrets, with a pulse kicker to surprise the enemy.

Armor:Type VII "Sturdy Shizzle Kit" Compound is classified. Only known fact is that it turns a rather weird shade of pink when sunlight hits it from a certain angle
Primary Propulsion System:DSE-X-254-89 "SpaceShifter" High-Density MOX Engine
The personal ship of Commander Virgil Redline. He will allow no one else to command it, except for his XO. Rumor has it because Redline believes that allowing someone else to command his ship will bring him bad luck in battle. Fact is, things happen onboard the Bagder that better remain a secret to the outside.
The Badger`s predecesor was knows as The Fires of Liberation. Also a siege cruiser, the Fires was lost in a massive fleet battle versus the Rheinwehr in Hudson. A new cruiser was commisioned. In a drunken mood, Redline desided to name it the Fluffy Bunny, much to the dislike of pretty much everyone including Redline himself when he sobered up. Redline tried to get the name changed but the bureaucracy in the Navy archives made this impossible for several weeks. During a Texas invasion, the Fluffy Bunny destroyed a Rheinwehr battleship alone. Rumor has it that its captain, being defeated by a drunken retard in a ridiculously named ship, commited suicide back in Rheinland.
Finally, Redline managed to get his cruiser's name changed to its current callsign, Honey Badger. This name was given earlier to a dreadnaught under the command of Redline. This ship was lost during an attack on Hamburg when the attack went horribly wrong.
Redline passed the name on to his cruiser because he is under the dilusion that it inspires fear in its enemies. Maybe that has something to do with the fact that back in Sol, there once lived an animal called the Honey Badger which had the tedency to bite off penises. What's in a name?
[font=agency fb]Further notes:
[color=#FFFFFF]
Many rumors surround the dark dealings onboard the Badger. The ship has been seen floating around
the far reaches off Virgina, seemingly steerless. What really happens onboard is a mystery. Known is that the bridge is sometimes turned into a make-shift casino when there is no action going on. Traders passing by the Badger have reported seeing a pooltable, several blackjack tables and assorted gambling instruments on the bridge floor. Strip poker is also reported being seen played on the bridge.
The Badger is also known for always having 'impounded' contraband onboard, including weed, vast amounts of liquor, pornography and at some point, a dead dog. Comm. Robinson once visited the ship and was not impressed with what she found. Redline had fled from the scene before Robinson boarded. And now she is hellbend on catching him redhanded.
Still, The Badger is known for its ferociousness, or rather its captain's gung-ho ness. It will attack an enemy fleet, even when horribly outgunned, outclassed and outnumbered. The 'Handbrake Turn' or 'Fipping the B****' is its trademark move where the Badger charges and enemy warship firing all its guns, then goes into a 180 degree kite and hurls a mortar round backwards at the enemy warship only to thrust to (relative) safety again.
