History: The History of the HMS-Thames, despite it's age, is rather dreary and short. Commissioned during a time of relative plenty in the Crown's Coffers, and made to ease the worry of the Crown's Subjects with a relative swell of Unlawful Activity, the HMS-Thames was issued orders to safeguard mining Operations in the Dublin System. With an uneventful and Non-Illustrious Combat Record, the ship and Crew were rotated to several Systems, usually those deemed too unimportant to cause a full Battlegroup to be deployed.
The Most Illustrious moment of the ship's 'life' Came during the Brief hostilities between Bretonia and Rheinland, when the ship was redeployed to the Omega-3 System, Where the ship's limited Secondary turrets shot down a total of four Rheinland fighters, on an incursion course behind Bretonian lines. With no true use being seen for the clearly ineffective Hulk, the Battleship was De-Commissioned and stripped for parts, left as a Monument, though some may say Indictment of the war.
However, with Gallia's advance, and the call for new warships to be produced, the Thames was finally recalled. Re-Pressurized and retro-fitted with modern Armament, the old gal' was Re-Commissioned to Active Service and Deployed Finally to....Safeguarding Civilian activity in systems deeemed unworthy of having an entire Battlegroup deployed in.

I've had an idea for an RP story about this old, Re-Commissioned Warship from Bretonia's past, the HMS Thames in my head for a while now. I've gone ahead and registered her on the Capital Ship form, however, there's just one small detail. I don't have the Cash for the old girl myself, and I'm horribly lazy.
Now, I'm actively trading toward this as it is, however while I'm flying I'm also going to put out this... Roleplay Advertisement, begging for any kind of Donation toward this project.
If you're interested, please, Donate Credits to the trading account [FL-ER]Princess-Cherry, or the HMS-Thames itself.
Thank You, Sincerely.
You'll find I slipped you a 30 in your sleep last night :^)

Since im literally broke right now - trying to get core 5 is fun, i have ~30 mil right now, and i need it - i cant give you any moola but i can tell you i like this idea a lot and cant wait to see where it leads. If you can be bothered, make a stories and bios thread for it so we can follow its story <3
I've gotten the Cash together, by scrapping a few ships.
I intend to make a stories thread.
Currently the outdated nature of the Thames is being represented by:
Only Mounted an Advanced Deep Scanner, a Heavy Armor upgrade II, and by only mounting 11 of the Dunkirk's 14 Guns. Additionally, the Heavies may only be Cerberus Turrets, the Primaries standard Bretonian primaries, and, the Secondaries are only Basics rather than Bretonian guns, inferring their Retrofitted nature as the Thames is unable to mount the complete armaments of a Dunkirk..
