SECTOR 50
SHORT SUMMARY AS OF 11/13/23
The foundation for Sector 50 is taking existing starships and cutting their designs in half. During this process, decisions need to be made and the goal is to make these halved starships balanced versus one another. The result is the base Heavy Cruiser for each New Empire.
Once the Heavy Cruiser has been created, the New Empire is now free to develop and expand in countless ways. It does not necessarily have to follow the design path that the Original Empire it was based on took. The New Empire might develop its own unique technology or may acquire different technology from neighboring empires or explore brand new Ship Classes.
It should be noted that, even if I feel that an existing weapon or device is Unbalanced, I will not Revise the weapon/device for Sector 50. Sector 50 utilizes existing technology as is, without changes.
Since the Heavy Cruisers for Sector 50 Empires are naturally small, it follows that other Ship Classes would be affected by this. Destroyers and Frigates would be even smaller, while Dreadnoughts and Battleships would be larger. Because the ships are smaller and simpler to begin with, fleet engagements take on a different form, with each small ship fulfilling more of a specialized role during combat.
