| Explanation-
- Arkania's fleet is moderate, considering they are not the most outgoing of species. It stands sufficient to defend their world, and while they tend to use stock craft, some are tinkered with to make minor upgrades here and there. However, the real edge of Arkania's naval and ground forces comes from the personnel themselves. Many are modified, either genetically or via cybernetics, to be highly improved over 'standard' crews, as they see others. While other species train pilots and crews, it could be said that Arkania specially builds or breeds them.

Information- Looking back through Adascorp's files, Vorn discovered the well-known (on Arkania and to Adascorp) and ill-fated Arkanian Legacy. With a moderate flair for the dramatic, as well as seeing his own achievements override that of his ancient ancestor, Vorn seized upon the idea of rebuilding the vessel as a mobile headquarters. To reinvigorate Arkanian patriotism, as well as have a symbol for Arkanians to see, the Arkanian Legacy II was constructed, almost a mirror image, minus a few features. Serving as a research vessel, the Arkanian Legacy II is not a warship as such, but in a pinch, it could well be utilized to help defend Arkania. However, its limited combat capability does not allow it to engage in extensive battles with other craft, and it relies on its high shielding and strong hull to be able to survive long enough to escape.
Manufacturer- Adasca BioMechanical Corporation of Arkania
Designation/Model- Space superiority fighter/Excision-class fighter
Class- Fighter
Length- 18 meters
Engines- 4x Ion engines
MGLT- 70
Atmospheric Speed- 800 km/h
Hyperdrive-
Shielding- 100 SBD
Hull- 78 RU
Armament-
- 4x Omnidirectional laser cannons
- 2x Forward-firing ion cannons
Crew- 2
Consumables- 1 week
Information- The Excision-class fighter was developed and designed by Adascorp specifically for use in escorting Adascorp top executives and safeguarding Adascorp interests. A large fighter by any standards, it couples Arkanian ingenuity and high technology with a quartet of massive engines along with a strong hull and shields. Requiring two crew, the ship can be flown by one, yet weapons capability would be inoperative. The Excision-class utilizes a unique design of laser cannon. Rather than a fixed position, or a large turret, the Excision sports eight smaller omnidirectional laser cannons, each mounted on a small rotational ball. The gunner of the craft tracks incoming targets and fires at them with specific cannons, while still able to engage other threats with the remaining cannons. For this reason, pilot and gunner crews are highly trained and specifically enhanced before being placed in this position.

I'd like the redundant shielding removed. It was pretty much unique among the Mon-Cal and it defeats the point of me having a studio run by them if redundancy if such trade secrets are common currency especially among humans allowed. May I suggest some basic droid crew to help do all the menial worm?
Such h a shop would be very expensive to build and run. But since money's no object so long as they were required to have a Judicial Inspector Homing Beacon Hardwired in making removal almost impossible. I'd like to see the weapons dropped down too. Possibly to 15 on the Laser cannons for anti-fighter or 1/3rd of current armament. I don't like ships with overconfidence in being able to meet anything..
Also the Judicial Inspectors would have put a homing device on construction hard wired in to the ships computer so tampering would auto-alert and removal would be a major task.
Deny the fighter - Too overpowered despite its speed.

| I removed the redundant shielding on the vessel, though I passed on the droid crew.
I tend to disagree on the weaponry, it actually carries lighter weaponry than the original vessel, and for a deep-space company facility vessel, as well as for research, and with size considered and the safety of passengers, the armament is actually rather modest. It's hardly 'able to meet anything,' and you forget, but this isn't intended as, or actually is, a warship.
I also disagree on the homing beacon idea. That hasn't been standard to date, and could actually interfere with a corporation's privacy. Unless they're attaching this to every single corporate-owned vessel, regardless of size, this isn't something that I would agree to modify, especially without cause.
I downgraded the fighter's weaponry as well, and added some nonlethal alternatives.

| The Military Arms Regulatory Bureau will be requiring this of all corporate demonstration craft more than 600m long in future.
Its a very heavy armament on this ship and I dont think you can argue it's "defensive" say drop the full size turbolasers and remove 20 laser cannons and I'd be okay with it.
I do hasten to add though that this will be pending approval of the Military Arms Regulatory Bureau... Its not explicitly and expeditionary ship so the armament will have to be justified since as a Hospital etc vessel it shouldnt be put in dangerous circumstances.

| In the future being the key words here.
Considering passenger liners have a rather heavy armament as well, shown in canon and your own designs, it's not necessarily a requirement to have lighter armament. However, I dropped the heavy turbolaser batteries, added 2x light turbolaser batteries and dropped 50 laser cannons.
It's also not a 'hospital ship.' It is a ship with an onboard hospital. It's a corporate mobile headquarters.
In regards to the tracking beacon item, I would say that no legislation or mention (outside of the request board mention here) exists yet. To simply enter one now would be tantamount to metagaming, I feel. If you want to regulate future vessels once existing legislation or regulations were in place, I could understand abiding by it, but this one might have to squeak on by.

| Any potential beacon would be a matter of RP to put in if we did.
I'd like to see the carrack-class cruisers dropped down to one really, or some other ships removed.

| Very well, I will drop 1x Gozanti cruiser.
Granted, I can drop two of the Carrack-classes, but considering Vorn's company-ship isn't a combat ship, I think they have a modest fleet. Certainly more reasonable than some I have seen proposed.
Arkania is a wealthy world after all, and very closed-off in a number of ways.
In regards to the beacon or not, as you say, that will have to wait for RP to decide.

| You know what. I vote to approveexcept the fighter. Apparently the BoSS already can track ships which dont break the law and turn off transponers!

| I likewise vote to DENY the fighter.
And I DENY the Arkanian Legacy II, as well. I'm well past the point now of zero tolerance for these throwback designs. I'll never approve of one again for any reason. They need to stop. 92 BBY is to 3,963 BBY what the modern day is to 1,857 BC. There are 8 speculated dates in the mid-1800's BC when a pharaoh named Senwosret either died or began to rule Egypt. We're not exactly sure when because it was so long ago it's in what historians refer to as the "Who tf knows?" era.
"One of these is Senwosret II, or III. Or they all are. WHO KNOWS." -Historians
Now, with that said...
Quote Vorn_Adasca-Draay (  ) 3x Carrack-class light cruiser (1x in anti-starfighter configuration)
4x IR-3F patrol craft (2x with laser cannon instead of turbolaser armaments)
3x Gozanti cruiser
12x Dianoga-class assault starfighter
24x R-41 Starchaser
... this looks like a suitable fleet that I vote to APPROVE of.

| It's a really cool-looking ship though, the Arkanian Legacy.
