Info: Exploreison class was designed before Gorg
war, though that version was never built. Exploreison was designed multiple
times and the last one, which was designed only a little before the end of the
Peace Station project. The G.A.S. Exploreison
was in the space dock for about six months, it was the first Exploreison class
ship to be constructed also it was the first ship that was built under the name
of Gigerdi Alliance and also first ship to be built with the new jump drive.
First it was planned that the first Exploreison class would be names as "Alliance"
because it would be the first ship constructed by the Gigerdi Alliance. Exploreison
also had new organic armor, which had never before been used. The armor proved
to be excellent armor and has saved Exploreison classes several times. Exploreisons
have only little of firepower, but do have quite a lot of fighters and good
shielding and of course good armor. Exploreisons are a bit considered to be
science vessels as well. Currently about three Exploreison class ships fly under
the Gigerdi Alliance Research & Exploration. Exploreisons usually have ships
protecting them or then they work with other science or exploration ships.

Tiedemies Class
Exploration Ship
Max. Crew: 300
Min. Crew: 150
Length: 1,6 km
Weapons: Four medium Particle Disruptors, Two
heavy particle Disruptors and Two EMP cannons.
Shields: Heavy Antimatter Shields.
Special Equipment: Special science and research
capabilities, mineral scanner and advanced sensors.
Fighters: None.
Cargo space: 0,3 km³
Capable of landing to planet: No.
Capable of atmospheric flight: No.
Info: The Tiedemies class exploration vessel
was launched from the dock right after the IGA conflict. After the disasters
of the “Exploreison project” and the “Exploreison MkII project”
the GA government felt that it finally needed a ship capable to really explore
worlds and space anomalies than to discover things which were already discovered.
The Tiedemies class has got the Nexus drive and the gravimetric drive as the
Jump drive and the propsys (Or is it the same thing? No, it shouldn't be.).
The Tiedemies also uses an experimental “Plasma reactor” which was
included by the GA R&E. The Tiedemies has some weapons too, which can
finally defend itself without the help of other ships or fighters. The ship
has a very little crew amount even because of its size. At the maiden voyage
of the “Tiedemies”, it helped the Mechanoids
to repair an old GA subspace station in the Mechanoid territory, in the year
3364.

capabilities, mineral scanner and advanced sensors.

Norm. crew:
Min. crew: 10
Cargo space: 0,5 km³
Capable of landing to planet: Yes.
Capable of atmospheric flight: Yes.

large fusion reactor.
Info: Searcher was the main exploration ship before
the Gorg war, actually about 10 years ago. Searcher was in service a LONG time.
It was good at the time it served the Gigerdi Federation. Searchers started
the exploration in the Andromeda, but gave it to other exploration and science
ships after the Dominion war ended. Then they were all put out of service and
were also decommissioned.
