I would like the Trade Federation to build one of these with the Mon Calamari and operate it in their trade fleet if they do not get buyers.



It are a ship that costs 50 millions

I suppose the question that must be asked is what do we mean by "turret"? That is, are "10 ion cannon turrets," in fact, 10 ion cannons? Or 20, if there are 2 ion cannons to each turret? I couldn't find a reference on these "heavy beam turbolasers," though I suppose your explanation is satisfactory if I understand it correctly to be a ship-to-ship beam weapon (or ship-to-asteroid weapon as the case may be) equal in firepower to a heavy turbolaser and capable of sustaining a beam for 5 seconds continuously, the rough equivalent of 5 hits from a heavy turbolaser? Also, you mention it overheats after 5 seconds—what would the re-charge time be? Finally, the "multiple electronic countermeasures to prevent it being targeted" are, I assume, nothing out of the ordinary, yes?

May I also comment on the good sense of having six blast door-covered hangar openings rather than one enormously wide yet inexplicably low-ceilinged hangar bay encompassing the entire width of the ship, as is the case with the Providence-class. What could possibly be the point of such enormously wide, yet impractically low hangar space? Oh right, so that Anakin and Obi-wan can more conveniently fly into it. And R2-D2 hijinks, etc. Sigh.

Why the Hangar blast door (since it evidently had one) was open mid battle and yet didnt seem to have craft coming in or out for normal purposes is beyond me too.

Turret


"A barbette emplacement"

A turret contains one Ion Cannon or other weapon unless otherwise specified.

Heavy Beam Turbolaser

Fires for 5 second beams ideally to break up, deflect or destroy asteroids, usable to target capital ships.

5 Seconds of Beam is equivalent to 10 regular Heavy Turbolaser Blasts.

There would be a cooldown of 30 seconds between volleys (so a regular heavy turbolaser could probably fire twice the actual equivalent in the cooldown period, but the Beam Turbolaser = heavy intense firepower for a short volume of time to cut things apart)

The heavy beam turbolaser sounds like a relatively terrifying weapon for the time period, and even overall. Five seconds to equal ten heavy turbolaser blasts? I'm thinking that with both weapons, that could cut through most ships like nothing, especially at that damage scale. I would be mollified if both were fixed forward firing, like the prow heavy turbolaser, had a longer recharge time, and did less damage; as Jace said, perhaps five hits? I mean, 20 hits in 5 seconds, especially as a focused beam, is something of a game-ending item. Then again, I could be looking at it too hard.

Otherwise, 10 ion cannons, 20 tractor beams and 10 laser cannons seem reasonable, as does the compliment of carried craft.

I like this ship as well, I must say. Just that particular armament gives me pause.

It having the power of five shots is fine.

What is pending here? We simply have the heavy beam turbolasers dropped to each "beam" having the effect of 5 heavy turbolaser blasts and requires a 1 turn cooldown between uses?

Be good to get feedback if I am missing anything else but there's a lot of "pending" things waiting on input other than the requesters...
