Togar Battle Ships

Togar Ships Union Spacers often make fun of the “foot” shaped ships of the Togar, and the jokes and funny stories are many. They even managed to be called Ugliest Ships in the Galaxy in a popular GalNet program. However the Tech Level Capital ships of the Togar are quite sturdy and if maintained properly are a force to be recognized. These 800 to 1200 meter Units are still feats of engineering. Of course the Propulsion Mass ratio and efficiency of their engines are still based on the same old Saran Trans light engines (Horus Wings) the Sarans gave to the Terrans. While Terra had a Dr.Isah who completely redesigned and basically reinvented these engines and made them much more efficient, faster and utterly reliable, the Togar and many other known spacefaring civilizations still base their propulsion on the Horus Wing principle. The Togar also experimented with Hyper Jump but were unable to make it work reliable and safely. Of course modern Togar Engines are a far cry from the old Tech Level 3 Horus Trans light Pushers but still nowhere near the latest Union ISAH Pod engine technology. Armament is mostly Oghr and Shiss based technology. While the Togar developed a variety of Ship to ship missiles and based their entire weapon technology on projectile and missile armament, they never went past lasers in beam technology. Togar Battle ships have an impressive array of missile launchers and their Vagroorr Ship to Ship Missiles were once praised by Admiral Stahl as: “100 of those equal a Loki Torpedo, and 200 can ruin your day.” (See Vagroorr Missiles) Furthermore they are equipped with Shiss and Oghr FTL Forced Energy Projectors. Shields and Armor. Shield technology is comparable with Kermac and Shiss Technology. They adapted the same shield arrangements as the Kermac (Overlapping Sector shield Projectors – Energy Reflective) [1] these are good shields that might withstand a Loki Torpedo hit but are ineffective against Translocator Cannons. Armor Togar rely on a Metal lattice – Mineral Concrete foam that is foamed over a metal frame and quite sturdy with a good heat resistance. The hull construction process favors round shapes (thus the strange shape of the Togar Ships) The Armor also absorbs concussions well but is somewhat vulnerable to high vibrations. Crew accommodations are relatively primitive and simple and little thought is given to Recreation and comforts. Togar do not like long space missions and are not the most motivated explorers.

[1] No one but Terrans (and by adapting Terran technology the Union) use the Triple Shield arrangement. Mostly due to power consumption issues.
