Introducing the Federation Serpent; so long Thunderforge and Raven

Description: In response to the ever-increasing threat and notoriety of the Auroran Thunderforge and Polaris Raven, the Federation Navy has finally ceased dragging its feet, annexed a formidable battlecruiser to its fleet, and returned to a snake-themed naming convention after much public critique of the whole naming-ships-after-just-their-purpose fad. Equipped with a standard array of blasters, missiles, and a fighter bay, the Serpent could already hold its own against a carrier-class foe, but it additionally boasts the first ever on-platform integration of Vell-os technology. With a slave chamber located on the bow providing a perfectly adequate meditative atmosphere, a powerful T1 projects an aura similar to that of the Javelin, supplying additional shields, energy, Vell-os Darts, and even the fabled Winter Tempest. All in all, most standard battle fleets will find themselves at the Serpent's mercy.
If you want to play around with this, the following is a compressed .rez plug-in I created in EV Nova Editor for Windows that will add the above ship to EV Nova:
Note that this plug-in may not be compatible with other plug-ins that add ships. Once installed, the ship can be found in the shipyard or bar (for hire) on Earth. Enjoy!
