Chiss Ascendancy
Chiss Expansionary Defense Installations
Chiss Ascendancy Planetary Installations
Epsilon-Class Military Fortress
Manufactured By: Chiss Engineering Systems (CES)
Model: Epsilon-Class Military Fortress
Class: Capital Military Establishment
Length: No less than 10,000 meters by 11,000 meters, 1,000 meters above the ground, with 1,000 meters below ground.
Crew: 50,000 at least
Speed: Immobile
Armor: Extremely Heavy
Shielding: Heavy
Monitoring: State of the Art monitoring equipment is standard, capable of detecting anything that moves within ten miles of the fortress. Hidden holorecorders in the surrounding environment provide extra, but unnecessary, visual confirmation. The Motion monitoring system is fully capable of detecting through most stealth tech by monitoring the movement of the environment and nearby animals. Multiple landmines are also placed all around the fortress in many cases, though not all. The landmines are often placed close enough together that the setting off of one will trigger ten or fifteen more as well. Killing not only the poor soul who stepped on it, but those around him as well.
Stealth: The Epsilon is capable of concealing itself from most scanners, although this is virtually useless unless the person scanning does not come down onto the planet. The Epsilon is so large that it is hard to miss, but it does not show up on scanners due to the high tech, short range jamming devices it uses.
Jamming Devices: Jamming Devices are also employed by the Epsilon. Only the highest ranking officers have coms units that possess the needed codes to bypass the jammer. Lower ranking soldiers can only employ short range communicators that cease to function once the soldier is 100 meters away from the person they are contacting. The jammer is in effect at a minimum of thirty miles in all directions around the Epsilon.
Armament:
- BX- Orbital Ion Cannon (4)
- Type-17 Heavy MegaMaser Batteries (6 Batteries, 4 Cannons per Battery)
- VD mk-10 anti-air repeating maser cannons (70 turrets with 2 cannons each)
- VD mk-5 Anti-Vehicle maser cannons (100)
- Standard Issue Chiss heavy repeating blasters, with generators (800)
- Anti-Air/Anti-Ground Heavy Rocket launchers (40, 40 rockets each)
- Heavy Missile Launchers, various warheads (8, 20 missiles each)
Complement:
- C7-Legion Hover Artillery (100)
- Mk. 4 Clawcraft (72)
- Transport Shuttles (50)
- Nyr-Class Bomber (30)
-Hover Rocket Launchers (50)
-Hover Maser Cannons (50)
-Various other speeders, scout bikes, skiffs, and armed personnel
Description:
The Epsilon Class Military Installation is the awe inspiring base of choice for the Chiss. This mammoth planetary fortification is able to withstand even the heaviest orbital bombardments with protective shielding, and able to destroy ships in the high atmosphere. With four super powered Orbital Ion Cannons, these bases disable anything descending to the planet. Six batteries of Heavy MegaMaser’s on movable arms enhance the maneuverability and flexibility of Chiss targeting, enhancing combat against close-range fighters and enemies. Forces on the ground are complemented with full support from the installation near-constant cover fire, a massive amount of armaments and supplies, and heavy shielding and armor. Carrying many fighters, bombers, and assault vehicles, it can serve as a capital military headquarters when the planet it is stationed in is under attack, coordinating the campaign across the planetary system. These fortresses are the most expensive and advanced installations in the Chiss military, thus they are not made in huge number and usually located in the Ascendancy's core worlds or where the Ascendancy wants a permanent foothold, instead of at the head of an assault.
Alpha Class Military Installation
Manufactured By: Chiss Engineering Systems (CES)
Model: Alpha Class Military Installation
Class: Military Installation
Length: 15 meters.
Crew: 5 per meter
Speed: Unmovable, but deployable
Armor: Light Titanium
Shielding: Optional Medium shielding
Armament: (All armament optional)
-Anti-Space maser turrets (Up to 10 cannons)
-Anti-Infantry maser turrets (Up to 5 cannons)
Complement: (Optional)
-V38 DFS "Deceps" (2)
-Warhawk Scout Fighter (1)
Description:
The Alpha Class military installation is designed as cheapest and most efficiently built Chiss base. Primarily used in low gravity situations, without an atmosphere, they can be built in a matter of hours. Their outer shell is lightly armored titanium, designed more to reduce the sensor signal of the base, than protect it. Still, it does well against high and low pressures, the intense heat and cold of space, and the occasional small meteorite. With optional medium deflector shielding able to be added, as well as various light anti craft and infantry turrets, they make good bases on asteroids and small moons, or to be used as frontal outpost in order to secure a foothold in battle.
Beta Class Military Installation
Manufactured By: Chiss Engineering Systems (CES)
Model: Beta Class Military Installation
Class: Military Installation
Length: 600 meters by 800 meters
Crew: 900
Speed: Unmovable, but deployable
Armor: Medium
Shielding: Moderate shielding
Armament:
-BX-Low Orbit Ion Cannon (1)
-VD mk-10 anti-air repeating maser cannons (2 turrets with 2 cannons each)
-VD mk-5 Anti-Vehicle maser cannons (2)
-Standard Issue Chiss heavy repeating blasters, with generators (4 per guard house, 6 guard houses)
Complement:
-Various tanks, speeders, skiffs, and light fighters with the max of twenty total vehicles, while having a max of twenty-four total starfighters available. Able to be changed as needed.
Description:
The Beta Class Military Installation is among the most common forms of atmospheric outposts in Chiss space. These buildings are able to be erected in a matter of three days each, and are perhaps the biggest base that can be found on an active battlefield. Often placed next to each other, these outposts and easily form a base complex. With moderate shielding, armor, and high powered weaponry, these are the mainstay outposts for the Chiss ground forces. Each contains repair bays, armories, barracks, mess halls, training facilities, sensors, communications devices, and other necessary implements to run a successful base. Their vehicle complement can be changed based on the mission, location and personal preference of the commander in charge.
Delta Class Military Installation
Manufactured By: Chiss Engineering Systems (CES)
Model: Delta Class Military Installation
Class: Military Installation
Length: No less than 1000 meters by 3000 meters, usually more.
Crew: 7,000 at least
Speed: Unmovable
Armor: Heavy
Shielding: Moderate shielding
Armament:
-BX- Orbital Ion Cannon (2)
-VD mk-10 anti-air repeating maser cannons (10 turrets with 2 cannons each)
-VD mk-5 Anti-Vehicle maser cannons (20)
-Standard Issue Chiss heavy repeating blasters, with generators (200)
-Anti-Air/Anti-Ground Heavy Rocket launchers (6, 40 rockets each)
Complement:
- C7-Legion Hover Artillery (10)
- Mk. 4 Clawcraft (48)
- Transport Shuttles (15)
- Nyr-Class Bomber (24)
-Various other speeders, scout bikes, skiffs, and personnel
Description:
The Delta Class Military Installation is the first of the true Chiss heavy military bases. Usually built into the sides of hills and mountains, the ground itself gives it extra defensive strength. However, they take weeks to set up. Once they are up however, these bases can protect entire quadrants of a planet’s surface. Heavily armored and armed, these bases provide a formidable opponent to ground forces, as well as those in the air. Their two Ion Cannons are able to disable nearly any light to medium sized capital ship that gets into orbit around the base, keeping it safe from most orbital bombardments.
