Description

Space raiders' vessel, known as the 'Star Bastard'. The name derives from the class of ship used in past conflicts, in which the ship goes into deep space, often into hostile and very inhospitable areas, whereupon they are prone to being attacked when detected and are always used as raiding and close-range assault ships. The name of this particular ship also comes from the abusive names given to it and its notorious crew as 'terrorists' and 'murdering, robbing bastards'. They are famous for being adaptable, largely due to their in-built Artificial Intelligence and very advanced computers. They have the ability to salvage and assimilate battle wreckage and various fuel sources in space. They self-repair by 'bastardising' parts from previous space battles as well as from ships they destroy (and they number many!) this ship is both feared and detested by the governments and armed forces of the Alliance of Freedom. They vary in appearance and can change, depending on how much they adapt while in space. They are usually used by the infamous pirates and raiders known as the 'Hruk NaGaa'. This particular one is one of the most notorious of its kind and is always greeted with dread whenever seen by Allied vessels. They often appear from out of nowhere and jam the communication transmitters of ships and vessels in their sites. They can often be heard over the receivers of their victims using a shrill scream of ancient languages. The effect of an encounter with these ships is often one of terror and death.
