NTF Boadicea

2007-04-15T12:07:47Z

Nightcypher:

The '''NTF ''Boadicea''''' was originally an asteroid in the [[Deneb]] system. During a depot raid, a wing from the [[53rd Hammerheads]] picked up an unusual signal and moved to investigate. Their signal turned out to be this half-breed of a shipyard and a really big rock. Shortly afterwards, the asteroid splintered, revealing it's deadly cargo: the [[NTF Iceni|NTF ''Iceni'']], a unique vessel constructed to the plans of the traitorous [[Famous Persons|Admiral Bosch]] within the asteroid. Shortly thereafter, the ''Iceni'' jumped out and was able to escape the Deneb, easily escaping an unusually poor attempt at blockade.

The Boadicea is named after the queen of an English tribe from an area in modern-day Norfolk called the Iceni. She led a enormous army (estimated at 230,000 warriors), and was beaten by a much smaller Roman force after burning London and two other major settlements to the ground; and annihilating one of their legions in battle.

''It's an [[NTF Iceni|Iceni]] with destroyable rocks all over it, not much more to say... has a good amount of [[Terran Turret]]s I suppose.''

'' Very, very ugly. ''

''Ugly maybe, but deadly if you set the turrets right. I've seen this thing own some destroyers easily... And it has a lot of missile turrets i think.''

''Useless piece of crud... except for that [[NTF Iceni|destroyer level corvette]] embedded in it'' <br><br>
''It looks like a city that a giant crapped on and threw into space.''
