Overview

introdaction

this guildbook may become non-relevent in the futare, the navy updates it’s ships all the time and this guild may or may not update on those changes, you have been warned.

anyways, let’s start with the history, shall we? the judeialite kaizerreich was formed in 1584 – FTFGE (for the fall of the great empire) as the princehood of bardoom, and has exsited peacfuly for many years, attacking only when pervoked, after the one mounth war*, it has got huge terretories, and with them, it could no-longer be titled as a princehood, and has changed it’s name into the judeialite kaizerreich, upon becoming a big nation, it has been called once again to arms against a foe, called the northen federation**, this call to arms will start the war of 100 years the impirial war, at first, the judeialite kaizerreich didn’t stand a chance, it was losing all fronts, arial and gound alike, but after the battle of bardoom, the impirial capital, the battle that has turned the tides of the war into a stalemate for about 97 long years, in a last dich effort, the entierty of the royal judeialite arial navy (RJAN) has attacked on all front at the same time, and the line was broken, and the way to the federation’s capital, orneir, was clear at last, it took another 5 mounts to reach the city, once reached, all hell went loss, in it, our navy stood as the clear victor, nad the war has endded at last, as of today, the judeialite kaizerreich is a world superpower, it is in charge of the unity allience, and it’s creations serve many militeries all over the world.

* – the princehood of bardom (later the judeialite kaizerriech) vs the greater franchic union.
** – the writer wants to make it clear that the call to arms was due to an attack of the federation on a city near the border (the city was named enmark – a target, that is quite strange, but am I thinking of names? no***), therfore it was a just cause.
*** – (this is the actual guy that writes this stuff, I did think of this name, but I write this guild as if I were a part of the world I have made)

airship classafication

aIrships have 4 main categories that they can be a part of, and they are:

battleships – big, and bulky masses that will tare apart anything in thier path if this is thier will.
aircraft carreirs – could be big, or small, aircraft carreirs are viewed as an elegant tool of destraction.
cruisers – the main line ships of the airal navy, they make most of the fire power of most fleets.
and escorts – the most common ships in the arial navy, escorts are everything from a gunboat, to a destroyer.

each category has it’s own addisatvantages
for instence; battleships are alot more powerful then escorts in firepower, but in speed, the escorts are better by alot then the slow and bulky battleships.

battleships

all the heavy firepower that you can put in one airship, the battleship makes the heavy-hitting blows of every fleet.


the kaizer line is a mid-size battleship, it is a formidible flagship, and is the cheaper option out of the 2 battleships of the navy.

noteable ships in class:
Royal Ark – mk I – commanded by admiral stemford
Flaming Eagle – mk I – commanded by grand admiral kelly
Kaizer’s Scimitar – mk II – commanded by admiral stormborn


the overlord line is the deadlier option for a flagship out of the 2 navy’s battleships it has hanger bays for bomber-planes with heavy-hitting bombs.

noteable ships in class:
sky’s guardian – mk I – commanded by grand admiral solar – destroyed during the battle for dragon’s path
The Protector – mk II – commanded by grand admiral clara


the order class battleship is meant to replace to two current battleship lines, the kaizer and the overlord, it may not have any bomb-bays, or air-crafts abord, but that is replaced with more firepower, will brake everything with ease.

noteable ships in class:
heaven’s gates – commanded by grand adriral miron

aircraft carriers

a more elelgent answer for enemies, the aircraft carriers are the (debatebly) most powerful airships of thier size (with the right ship at it’s side)


the arcangel class is a super carrier that can lunch 4 squderons of jet-powred airplanes (not actual number the that the game allows, but that is what I want my lore to be, and so be it), is a great flag ship, that serves a few fleets for it’s extremly high cost.

noteable ships in class:
Heaven’s sword – commanded by grand admiral crow


the hero class is fast, and will do well in every role it is throwen into, although has no armerment at all, it has alot of aircraft it carries for it’s rather small size.

noteable ships in class:
Impirial Wrath – commanded by mayjor captine ranon (my lore, I write it how I want to >:D)
Ice Axe – commanded by mayjor captine halfor – destroyed after a failed defection to the northen union

cruisers

the gaurds of the skys, the fist of the navy, the cruisers are the main-line ships and make the main fire-power of the navy.


the scimitar class is the ship meant to replace the old ramford line, with everything improved, it is the main damage dealer of the navy.

noteable ships in class:
Burning Lance – mk I – commanded by mayjor captine heynor


the keeper line is the main heavy cruiser of the navy, with the mkIII being the latest version of it, it is a good flag ship that can serve every fleet.

noteable ships in class:
Heaven’s sword – mk I – commanded by admiral ramford – destroyed during the battle of bardoom
Hell’s Nightmare – mk II – commanded by admiral conor
ramford’s vengence – mk II – commanded by admiral cayron
Fancy Sword – mk III – commanded by mayjor captine haland


the ramford line is the most populer by navel command, it is considred by many as it’s workhorse, now, on the age of retairing with the blassings of many, navel officals are even fighting (not in the litteral sense of the word) for it to keep flying in the navy.

noteable ships in class:
Impirial Greatsword – mk I – commanded by mayjor captine hirman – became a relic ship, phased out of service
Royal Impaler – mk II – commanded by mayjor captine loran – destroyed during the battle for dragon’s path
Glowing Hammer – mk II – commanded by major captine liman
Impirial Order – mk III – commanded by grand captine hadra – destroyed during the battle for dragon’s path


the winter line is mostly armmed for siege warfere with it’s powerful, slow-lodeing cannons, and it is a slow airship, siege fleet’s workhorse.

noteable ships in class:
Impirial Dragon – mk I – commanded by mayjor captine comart – destroyed during the battle of bardoom
Mercyless Hellbringer – mk II – commanded by mayjor captine lery – destroyed during the battle for dragon’s path
Royal Spike – mk II – commanded by mayjor captine nora
Flag Berrer – mkIII – commanded by major captine irone


the warden class was a faild expirement, trying to put the firepower of a cruiesr in the size of a destroyer didn’t go very well…

noteable ships in class:
NA


the dragon class battlecruiser is the most advanst airship in the navy (for now at least), it uses the new misslie technology, which allows it to strike down the foe, before they even saw the ship.

noteable ships in class:
NA
(note: due to it being the newest airship in the judeialite impirial navy, it has no noteable “hero” ships)


the swarm class assult battlecuiser is used for landing oparations to deploy large amounts of infentry and tanks, however, it can fight very well on it’s own.

noteable ships in class:
swarm – mkI – commanded by LT. mayjor carol – took a part in the impirial intervention of the fruncharian civil war.

escort ships

escort ships are from corvettes to destroyers, they make the bulk of the navy’s ships.


the controler line may not have the most fire-power, nor will be the fastest ship for it’s class, BUT, it has one uniqe armerment (not really a weapon, but is still considerd as armerment by the impirial warship-classafication guild), and it is a radar warfere antena, it’s use is to hide fleets from enemy radar and by that, allowing it to surprise attack any target, being ground targets, or even fleets, it is considerd a must-have for every fleet.

noteable ships in class:
Fire Spike – mk I – commanded by lieutenant captine noran
Fearless Angel – mk I – commanded by lieutenant captine maraner – destroyed during the battle for dragon’s path
Kaizer’s Wrath – mk II – commanded by lieutenant captine herold


the leoperd class is based on the controler line with some added weaponry, highly effective in combat and one of the moist common airship to fly within the navy.

noteable ships in class:
Heaven’s Victory – commanded by lieutenant captine lora


the shaperd class is based on the leoperd mkII’s hull, it is more armmed for as it’s name says, ground bombardments, with several 20mm light cannons it will deliver hell to the targets you choose.

notable ships in class:
royal scrorcher – mkI – commanded by lieutenant captine godwin


the horseman line is the most common ship in the navy, it is tiny, cheap, just a corvette.

noteable ships in class:
NA


the soulstealer line is a corvet with the armerment of a destroyer, it is highly effective, but it is also very costly for a corvette, so it is a trade-off.

noteable ships in class:
NA


the iron class gunship is old, and doesn’t serve in the navy anymore, but it was a technological wonder for it’s time, one of the first airships to use jet-thrusters.

noteable ships in class:
NA


the crow class tactical bomber is a veteran of the navy, it took a part in any major war, from the end of the impirial war, to the first northen war, it was also, much like the iron class gunship, one of the first (if not THE first) airship to use jet-thrusters.
noteable ships in class:

NA

the Glorius Light


the Glorius Light is the most deadly airship in the navy, it is the airship of the kaizer himself (or the kaizerina herself, depends on the time period).
it is uniqe airship, because it is the only one of it’s class.
after the original Glorius Light was blowen up by the SNS (seacert northen servies), the constration of the second Glorius Light begun, and in a record speed build for the size of the airship, it was built in just 9 mounths, with even deadlier weaponry then before, no foe is safe.

battle fleets, siege fleets, flotilas, and guard-fleets

now that we understand the class of airships, it is time to see what they do with other ships on their side.

battle fleets

battlefleets are the main attraction to the navy, however, it is not the only kind of fleet in the navy.

battle fleets are made up of (at least) 1 battleship, 2 cruisers, and 3 destroyers.

battle fleet hell (in the picture above), is a minimum battle fleet.

battle fleets are made up of (at most); 1 battleship, 1 heavy cruiser, 2 cruisers, 3 destroyers, 6 corvettes.

battle fleet heaven’s sword (in the picture above), is a maximum fleet.

siege fleets

siege fleets are fleets made for, well, siege warfere, usualy deployed in battles of stalemate, or when trying to win in a battle vs a hostile fort, those fleets are few in numbers, however, the fleets themselfs are quite large

siege fleets are made up of (at least):1 carrier, 2 heavy cruisers, and 3 corvettes.

siege fleet ice-spike (in the picture above), is a minimum fleet.

siege fleets are made up of (at most); 1 aircraft carrier, 3 heavy cruisers, 1 destroyer, and 4 corvettes.

siege fleet firestorm (in the picture above), is a maximum fleet.

flotilas

battle fleets and siege fleets are to keep the enemies from getting in, but what about riders and outlaws? for those, there are flotilas, not as powerful as a battlefleet, however, can get to point A to point B much faster then a battle fleet would, therefore it is better for problems from the inside.

flotilas have only one way of deployment, and it is; 1 destroyer, and 4 corvettes.

night flotila (in the picture above) is what all flotilas look like.

guard fleets

guard fleets are depolyed to proctect impirial assets of importent metter, unlike flotilas, they are a much worse foe to fight, becuase not only do they have the firepower of their own, but also the firepower of what they protect, (most impirial assets are weaponaised to some degree).

much like flotilas, guard fleets have only one kind of deployment, and it is: 1 cruiser, and 3 corvettes

guard fleet knight (in the picture above), is the way that guard fleets are all deployed.

the Royal Fleet – heaven’s wrath fleet

the Royal fleet – heaven’s wrath fleet is made up of: the Glorius Light, 2 carriers, 4 cruisers, 5 destroyers, and 6 corvettes.

due to it being the kaizer’s fleet, it has a uniqe role of also serving as a propaganda tool to convince many to join the arial navy, just for the little chance to be a part of this fleet.
