Description:
The Killer Whale was built by the Draconians for the Lizard Men, too replace their Hammer ships. The Flippers and tale make the Killer Whale a very Maneuverable ship when they are manned. The ship is also heavily armed and armoured.
Ship Uses:
Military: The Killer Whale is used the IDN to patrole their sphere. Since the ship is well armed, armored and Maneuverable they make perfect war ships. The Killer Whale must have alot of crew though to keep the tail and flippers manned.
Transport: When the Killer Whale is being used to transport troops or cargo between planets in the Draconians' sphere, the flippers and tail are left un-manned to make room more troops or cargo. If the Killer Whale is to be venturing into an enemy sphere too drop troops off at a target, the minimun crew are taken so the flippers and Tail are manned, the soldiers man the Heavu weapons. After the troops ate dropped off the Killer Whale relies on it's Maneuverability to out run enemy ships and too dodge their weapons.
Crew:
A killer Whale always has a squad of Marines on board in case of attack. The Marines have their own offciers who have a room on the crew deck. The Marines have a room across from their offciers.
Other configurations:
The Killer Whale amy be configured to haul cargo or move troops. The Guilds would love to get their hands on this ship, but the IDN, Imperial Draconian Navy, isn't letting anyone get a hole of the ship plans.
