Earth Alliance Warlock Class Advanced Destroyer (EAS Warlock, circa 2260, pictured) (EAS Sorceror, circa 2261, pictured) Warlock Class History The Warlock Class Advanced Destroyer was designed from the outset to be the most powerful vessel in Earth Alliance history, even more powerful than the failed Medusa project. The Warlock had two distinct phases in its development. The second, more public version was built after the Interstellar Alliance gave the secrets to grav tech to the Earth Alliance. The first version, however, is the subject of this report. The first four prototypes of the Warlock class were completed before the end of the Earth Civil War, before the introduction of grav tech. They were completed with the rotating section of the Omega located between the engines and the main hull in order to have a vessel with a longer range than the Nova. These four ships were actually more powerful than the Nova class but due to the same beuracratic mentality that named the Omega a "destroyer," the class was called a "advanced destroyer." Armed with LPAs, missile racks, rail cannons, two squadrons of Thunderbolts, and two Heavy Particle Cannons, these ships were closer to Battleships than dreadnoughts, let alone destroyers. As the Warlock class progressed toward completion, President Clark took an active interest in the development. He had a secret project that involved new alien technology that he hoped to use on new Warlocks. The third prototype, EAS Sorceror, was moved from the test facilities to the location of the Omega Delta production. The Sorceror was completed with the same bio-organic hull and energy diffusers as the Omega Deltas, however she was pressed into service as the Advanced Destroyer Group's flagship before the new weaponary could be installed in place of the ships origional weapons fit. As the White Star fleet engaged the "Shadomegas," the Sorcerer remained in Hyperspace, controlling the battle. As with all of the EA's largest warships rushed into service, the ship had the misfortune of being deemed a threat by the Minbari. White Stars detected her signals from Hyperspace and forced her back into normal space where she was destroyed. The remaining prototype Warlocks continued to serve as test platforms until the Telepath and Drahk Wars, where two destroyed during the Telepath War, and the remaining prototype was destroyed in defense of Earth. In order to get the Warlock Prototype SCS's, add 15 structure points to each side, ten to the primary, loose the aft railguns, and you've got it. To get the Sorcerer, do the same mods, but also add Shadow Omega diffusers, with a third tendril. I may eventually get around to making SCS's for these two.
