  • Modelling Guidelines:
The ship is mainly cylindrical in nature, roughly 6 km long and 2 km wide. The rearmost section is full width, and possessed of minimal features, with variations in diameter including a rearward taper and some slight banding. Moving forward from the drive area, there are three hoods (one could envision them as similar in appearance to bullets cut in half, embedded into the hull, and hollowed out, but they're obviously more seamlessly integrated than that would suggest) covering three radially located flight decks. The hoods open forward. Offset 60 degrees and fore of most of the length of the preceeding hoods, three more hoods open facing front over three more flight decks, again radially located. Proceeding forward from there, there is a flat, relatively featureless stretch followed by a slight narrowing on both the port and starboard sides towards the opening of a very large hangar bay. The vertical distance remains undiminished. Indeed, a structure, not unlike in form to what one could expect from building the something vaguely 'I' shaped out of 5 large piles of sand, the center larger than any of the other 4 extrudes from both top and bottom (rather "dog-bone" shaped, assuming a fat middle to a bone). The sides would slope and merge together. The top is mesa-like rather than continuing in the conical fashion though (the better to mount the weapons on). Each prominence is a set of 5 weapon emplacements. The vessel then resumes normal diameter after the hanger bay. There is again a featureless expanse, followed by 6 hoods over 6 radially oriented flight decks, opening aft. Continuing past the end of the hoods, the vessel maintains diameter for a while, this being a large storage region. Fore of this brief unfeatured expanse, the vessel starts to taper slightly, and the and support struts for the frontal docking spars attach to the hull, then, fore of that, the 6 frontal docking spars themselves depart the hull, extending out ~1.6 km radially outward from the vessel. The vessel terminates in 6 retro thrust emplacements and the central hub of additional docking spar support, offshoots from said structure wandering back between each pair of retro thrusters to connect to the docking spars.
