- Role Summary: Fleet Carrier, Venerable
- Combat Behavior:
- Known Major Variants: none
- Tenure of Service: FIXME 60 years ago?
- Utilization: unknown
- Role Details:
- While it's capable of servicing and berthing a wide range of Aeran interceptors, fighters, bombers, support vessels, and corvettes (facilities for larger vessels being admittedly much more limited), the two key reasons for the continued use of this class of vessels are the transport of vast quantities of materiel (use as 'self-contained' supply train/mobile base) and carrier functionality for specialized in-system attack craft. While, as mentioned, it can service and berth all of the Aeran small craft, the interstellar capable vessels utilize the Agesipolis more as a mobile supply and service depot than as a carrier, especially during non-jump interstellar flight actions.
- The vessel mounts a large number of weapon emplacements, but none particularly large, and the majority of mounts are defensively oriented.
- The vessel was not ostentatiously designed - it is elegant, but functional in impementation.
