Global Crossing: Empire of Stars

Inside the enormous dock, a colossal ship over 1,500 kilometers long fired up the engines on its rear. Propelled by ion engines stretching for thousands of kilometers, it slowly sailed out into deep space.

Like Battle Stars, Planet Warships came in different sizes according to their classification. The super-Titans previously assigned to the Imperial Main Fleet were over 100 kilometers long, far larger than ordinary Titans, yet still smaller than the smallest Planet Warship.

According to the classification of Planet Warships, even the smallest, the "Meteorite"-class Planetary Titan, was over 300 kilometers across and could reach up to 800 kilometers.

The next size up was the "Asteroid"-class Planet Warship, starting at 800 kilometers and reaching a maximum of 3,000.

Standard Planet Warships started at 3,000 kilometers and could reach up to 80,000 kilometers. Of course, few Planet Warships were built larger than 30,000 kilometers.

Above those were the Super-Class "Gas Giant"-class warships, and even Stellar Warships.

The Empire's newly designed Planet Warship belonged to the Asteroid class. Apart from five light, pseudo-psionic Star Destroyer Cannons with a 100-kilometer caliber, its six wings—over 2,000 kilometers wide when fully extended—also carried more than 3,200 Particle Light Spears.

When this colossal ship launched an attack, a rain of light would blanket the heavens. Its spears of light would flash across the stars, destroying entire fleets.

"It's magnificent. With a colossal ship like this, there's no need for Mobile Fortresses anymore," Link exclaimed. "Deploy it to the battlefield and put its combat capabilities to the test."

Of course, it wasn't that simple. Just to operate this enormous warship required 700,000 crew members, plus a million carrier-based fighter pilots and 500,000 ground troops from the ship's defense force. The total personnel numbered over 2.2 million.

That was right. Apart from its crew, a Planet-class Warship
