This battleship was a wreck before me in Omicron-85(there is no more, since we've moved wreckage and rebuilt it). Lately known as Blitzkrieg, was captured by GMG in 80-year war. Renamed to Namura and sent to explore deeper Omicron sectors, thus was neutralized in 85 by Outcast forces.

And then appears me, but actually I've started this RP project in Omicroners... Eh, about a year ago. The vast of knowledge we've got from GMG, they're shared this information with us.

Not to start punching holes in this. But I suppose I shall.

The GMG recovered two Bismark class battleships from the wreckage of Sigma-13. Of the two ships they were merely the husks of their former glory. These heavily battle-scarred ships were merely the mostly intact shells of the Bismark class. The GMG had to completely redo the interior of the ship, including weapon systems, propulsion, the works. That means the ship is merely Rheinlandic in appearance, and has no actual Rheinland parts.

Now that means two things. One, the GMG don't know the ship from top to bottom. They just know where the hull plates go and can guess at how some of the rooms were divided. Explosive gas pockets don't do nice things to a ship, especially not its soft internals once its been breached. And Two, that the ship the GMG fly is not the Bismark class, but a Bismark hull.

Now. Lets take your story. This Bismark Hull goes into the 80 years war, and while suffering combat damage is eventually destroyed with the rest of the Rheinland fleet at the end of the 80 years war. This event took place a couple hundred years ago. Without even taking in age to consideration, the extremely hostile environment it was subject to would cause a very high level of degradation to the ship itself. When the GMG recovered it and the other mostly salvageable wreck, it would have been a mess.

Now fast forward, the GMG have successful refitted the ship, however it is no longer of the Bismark Class nor design, but a Bismark hull with GMG tech. It is sent into a combat operation against the Outcasts, however it is horribly damaged and now crippled for the second time in a hostile environment.

Fast forward again, you've somehow managed to recover the wreck of a wreck. Where are you getting the parts? Do you expect the Rheinland government to be sympathetic if they -ever- see you with it? So lets pretend you don't have access to parts, nor do you really have the Bismark designs, but only what the GMG think is the correct way of putting things. You have a battered wreck of a ship that was once a military vessel. You have little to no way of repairing it, and no way of getting replacement parts. You have completely destroyed any chances of political/economic relationships with Rheinland by sporting what is more or less a 'War Trophy'. I'm just failing to see why you would even want this thing other than novelty. And if you think novelty is worth risking a relationship with a house, then I'd say you're playing a very risky game.

If you have links to the roleplay where you acquire the battleship from the outcast controlled nebula, and where the GMG give you the information on the ship I'd be very interested in it.

P.S. Please don't say you're going to get the parts from Sigma-13, as that's going to be cleaned up in .87, not even counting that all of the important/functioning tech would have long been scavenged twenty times over by GMG/ALG. And anything semi-functioning would have been taken by the Junkers.

Also, I'm not saying I'm opposed to you having the ship or the roleplay involved in it. But I find the fact that you think you have a fully intact, fully operational, perfect copy of the Rheinland Bismark Battleship a bit unsubstantiated. In addition to the fact that you think you have 'vast stores of knowledge' about the class itself.
