Overview[]
The Uratha-Class Battlecruiser is Clan tech version of the Lyran titan, the Mjolnir. Implemented by Wolf Khan Clan Alaric Ward in 3143 to reinforce his naval capital fleet whom had conquered portions of the Lyran Commonwealth and it's bordering neighbors in Free Worlds League including the Marik-Steward Commonwealth. Posed push for the Clan Wolf's manifest destiny of becoming ilClan, Wolf Scientists taken the plans of the battlecruiser and created purely Clan variant of it.
The ship was conceived by monbvol for his fan book, Weapons of War Saga: The Director-General and her Knights.
Class History[]
Construction of the class began in 3144, as Bolan and it's surrounding system were integrated into the growing Wolf Empire. It's citizenry more willing to contribute to Wolf's growing fleet having hands off approach handling Empire worlds, were able to build the shipyard itself in 3144 and began construction in time for Clan Wolf's push into former Republic of the Sphere space. The lead ship of the Class, would accompany the revered McKenna Class Battleship, SLS McKenna's Pride into battle in May of 3145 as it's escort.
The first ship of class, CWS Luna’s Fury would be designated as Task Force Werewolf flagship.
Canonity[]
This variant has never existed in canon. However, the Mjolnir Warship itself is canon.
Armament and Equipment[]
The Uratha are a Clan upgrade of the original Mjolnir, where all entirety is made with Clan technology. Retaining same power plant as the original ship including it's speed, the lighter weapons and slight increase of armor allow for better protection.
The design differs from it's Mjolnir sisterships with shift from large array of Naval Autocannons & heavy mix of Mid-ranged Naval PPCs to mix of Light Gauss Rifles and heavier dependence on AR launch Capital Missile launchers and it's remaining NAC/30 & Heavy Naval PPCs. It's unclear the decisions of Science & warrior castes chose reduction in it's fire power. However, the ship would gain 50 Aerospace Fighter capacity, long with more fuel for the engines.
