-[G.L.I] Vanguard Class Battlecruiser- (NO MODS)

Lore:

Although it started production from the begining of the war, due to constant raids on Renation weapon labs and production sites, the construction of one of the most capable ships in the Renation Navy was delayed for a couple years. Eventually the project was ordered to move to shipyards and research bases closer to the core in order to stop constant Resurgent raids. The relocation of the project made it a very easy target for resurgent spies to get their hands on the details of the new ship and for that reason the G.L.I has relocated most of its assets to help with the Vanguard's production in order to get the new ship into the battlefield as fast as possible.

The planned experimental weapon systems that were still in production were scrapped and replaced with more conventional weaponary that were already widely used by the Renation fleet. The command and controll station module was also removed since it required more testing and improvements before it was ready for combat. Many other minimal changes to the engines and armor were made to compensate for the removal of many experimental subsystems and the ship was made ready in just a couple months.

The final armaments included:
- 22 Assault batteries
- 8 Medium assault batteries
- 3 Quad assault batteries
- 12 Artillery batteries
- 2 Heavy artillery batteries
- 12 Triple railgun batteries
- 8 Variable AA guns
- 6 Dedicated AA guns
- Point Defense guns

Along with a hangar space for a single squadron and a couple dropships/gunships, the Vanguard was also capable of providing light fighter support. Due to its balance of speed and armor, it could often flank dreadnoughts of its size and
act as a spearhead for large fleets. Vanguard class ships quickly made up the Renation navies backbone after its sudden release and had been a key asset for most of Renation naval victories. Although many Vanguards have recieved a command and relay station upgrade when the technology was finally tested and deemed ready for combat, later variants of the Vanguard with the originally planned weapon systems were barelly able to reach the frontlines and have only been complete just a couple months before the collapse of the Resurgent Empire.


Yes, i know the interrior isn't that good. I still don't know how to make decent interriors but i think this is good enough to release on the workshop. I will also be uploading the fighters shown that come with this ship some time later so stay tuned for that. Anyway, the bridge is at the second floor at the opposite side of hangar control. The helm is set as main cockpit and thats where you are supposed to drive it from. The seat to your left would be the weapon control seat that has target priority settings already assigned and the one to your right should be the power management seat that has reactors, backup generators and batteries already assigned. Have fun.

For people with potato computers like me, turn the console blocks off since there are holograms of the fighters and the Vanguard in them. It's also prob best that you turn the ship into a station to minimise lag and delete some of the fighters if you can. This ship has a PCU of 114709 and a block count of 17313 so make sure you have a fire extuinguisher ready in case your pc decides to blow up. (All DLC are optional expect for the Warfare dlc and Sparks of the Future since i used their engine skins. The rest are purelly cosmetic.
