The Starbat & Marauder is a special starship built by the Eulian Empire for their conduit super soldier program.

The Marauder is a warp-capable flying base of operations for a team of conduits.

The Starbat is a dropship that brings the conduits to the ground level on a target planet or moon.

The Marauder

‍

‍

The Marauder is the main vehicle of the Conduit super soldier program, the starship is used as a base of operations and can sustain a presence for years without contact, because it is equipped with the Starbat that can maintain supplies.

The Marauder is equipped with primary accommodation for 4 conduits and 3 additional passengers. The additional rooms can be utilized as temporary captivity or hosting a special refugee.

The Marauder has the best warp drive the Eulian Empire can offer so that it can respond to missions as fast as possible.

The ship is also equipped with training facilities, an engineering bay, and a cargo hold.

‍

THE STARBAT

‍

‍

The Starbat represents the peak of Eulian engineering and is reserved for special operations and is the primary workhorse of the conduit special forces.

The Starbat is equipped with the best stealth tech, great agility, and a weapons arsenal to rival any fighter.

The ship is also uniquely designed to work well with conduits and their natural ability to communicate with the electromagnetic field at will.

‍

The Starbat can seat 4 passengers in the cockpit but can transport cargo upwards of 5000 kg to orbit or 8000kg from orbit to ground.

The cargo space could be used for a smaller all-terrain vehicle, ammunition, or transporting an additional crew of 12 seated passengers.

Due to it being a vehicle built for Conduits, normal people cannot fly it without extensively modifying the craft. This protects the craft from piracy.

‍

The Starbat is usually fixed to the Marauder when traversing from system to system.

The Starbat connects directly to the cargo hold of the Marauder for easy drop-off and loading.

If the Marauder needs to maximize the speed it is flying at, it can, in addition to its own impulse boosters, use those of the Starbat to gain a significant boost in thrust.

‍

‍

To support the Conduits deployed on the ground, events don’t always follow the plans, and additional help is sometimes needed.To assist with this, the Marauder can deploy up to 16 configurable drop pods that can contain everything from ammo, supplies, or even a person.However, the drop pod is a one-way trip, so the task force will still have to return aboard the Starbat.
