Military of the Republic

Basic Ship Weaponry

Quad Turbolaser Batteries: Commonly mounted on rotating turrets, this weapon is the basis of armament for Capital Ships, space stations and orbital facilities. it is also used on land as defense. Strong against armor and has notable strength against shields.

Poltom Ion cannon: The ion cannon is used to disrupt the ship's armament and shields. Poltom class ion cannons are used on battleships and capital ships while other versions are used on handheld blasters and land/space vehicles.

Assault laser Cannon: Used on smaller cruisers and starfighters, the assault laser cannon is a smaller version of the turbolaser cannon. Can also be found on larger ships, but isnt common.

Quad Laser Batteries: Just like a Quad Turbolaser battery, the only difference is the firepower. most common on Cruisers and Frigates.

Heavy Laser Cannon: Extremely powerful against armor and un-shielded areas of a ship. In some cases, it can rip through the ship. used on all sorts of ships.

Ion Pulse Cannon: Unlike the normal ion cannons, this cannon can physically alter the ship it hits. the effects won't damage the ship to destruction, but can leave the ship useless.

Point defense laser cannons: Laser cannons used to attack and destroy fighters at a fast and quick pace. Not only fighters, but it can be targeted to destroy missiles before they reach their target. Classes of the laser cannons range from light to heavy.

Mass Driver turret: Turrets that penetrate most shields. Heavily affecting armor, but doing no damage to shields.

The ship serves many roles, such as being a carrier and a battleship. Its unique design allows for the ship to be split in two. The core ship and the Outer ship. the core ship is covered on the top by the outer ship. This serves as a safety feature for the core ship. The core ship holds most of the cargo, including passengers and military personnel. when the Ship as-a-whole is heavily damaged, the core ship detaches. having its own shield generator and engines, it can escape the battle easily.

Armed Forces

Droid Armed Forces:

The Backbone of the Republic's armed forces. The Droid army consists of numerous types and classes of droids.

A-1 Battle Droid: The Backbone of the droid army, this unit is the most numerous and cheapest. Although not the strongest, they make up for their weakness with great numbers.

Armament: Attachable Blaster cannon (1)
Thermal Detonators (2)
Other weapons.

Equipment: Reflective body plating
Quad photoreceptors

A-1 Assault battle droid: The assault battle droid was a variation of the A-1 battle droid. They were slightly more armored than the standard infantry droid and had been programmed to wield heavier weaponry. Their targets are enemy vehicles and turrets. They had better leg power and a built in communications link to call in bombings and reinforcements. A unique characteristic is its Dark blue colored torso.

TDF-Series Droids: An earlier battle droid series, the TDF series has more advanced and independent programming. The droids can be programmed to do a variety of tasks. They are identified by their tasks and torso colorings.

TDF command battle droid—yellow
TDF pilot battle droid—blue
TDF security battle droid—red
TDF marine battle droid—green

TDF Command Droid: Used for the purposes of transmitting orders to squads of infantry or security battle droids. Commanders were characterized by yellow markings on the tops of their heads and their torsos. They received long-distance signals allowing them to be far from base with their squads.

Class: battle droid

-Technical specifications:
Height: 1.91 meters
Sensor color: Black
Armament: E-10 Blaster Rifle (1), Blaster pistol (1)
Equipment: Advanced Reflective body plating,
communications Backpack.

A slimple version of this droid is used to command some tanks and vehicles. Such as the SC-AAT

TDF Pilot Droid: These droids are programmed to pilot all vehicles and vessels used by the droid forces. They are also deployed in space battles to man turrets, carry ammunition, and monitor the decks and hangars for breaches and boarding parties. These droids had advanced specialization programming that allowed them to easily understand the control systems of any vehicle. They did not have the same combat programming that the other droids had, making the pilot easier to destroy. Pilots were characterized by Blue markings on their torsos.

Vehicles and Artillery:

Sol-Class Armored Assault Tank/SC-AAT: A medium-sized repulsor tank. It is augmented with heavy inches-thick frontal armor. This allowed it to ram walls, and deflect light lasers. The tank has heavy weaponry. It carried a payload of 55 shells, but once it ran out, the SC-AAT had to return to its carrier to have its bottom section completely replaced, fully recharging its supply.

Production information:
Manufacturer: Bakk Armor Workshop
Model: Sol-Class Assault Tank
Class: Repulsorcraft

Technical specifications:
Length: 9.75 meters
Maximum speed: 57 km/h

Armament:
Heavy laser cannon (1)
Laser blasters (2)
Short-range antipersonnel blasters (2)
Chain-fed energized shell projectile launchers* (6)

Crew:
Pilot (1)
Gunners (2)
Commander (1)

The gunners operated both secondary blasters, and the commander controlled the main turret.The reactor, along with key power and communications gear, was kept in the rear for protection.
*The launch tubes can be equipped with a array of ammunition. Three standard-issue ammunition types were, "City-Crumblers", high explosive shells used for destroying enemy structures; armor-piercing shells, used for penetrating heavy armor on tanks; and high-energy shells for anti-personnel and anti-vehicle use. These shells are surrounded in high-energy plasma, which improves their penetration and reduces friction, increasing speed.

Culture by planet:

Arivia:

Arivian Culture is high class. The wealthy are seen as powerful people( although they have no power) and leaders in culture. People of lesser wealth are seen as undesired and unwanted, meaning that the poor are better left to die.

Religion played an important part in the cultural development but due to modernization and interests in high-tech science and politics religious traditions have died.
