It was decided that the Assinine Industries Ambassador class corvette “Jenny” needed some drop ships to accompany her. Instead of going with a standard military dropship that would stick out as a soar thumb as military ships it was decided that something that could pass as being harmless was needed. So some Mule class cargo transports where modified for the warships dropship needs. Because of the Mules large size a great deal could be done with the ship. First thing that was done was that its structural integrity was heavily reinforced so it can carry a great deal more armor. It armor protection was increased by over four fold.

The Colt is the Jenny's the fighter carrier escort. To that end the ship was given forty fighter cubicles. The ship carries two wings with two command lances.

Like the Colts mother ship the warship “Jenny” Colt is designed to be out for extended missions with little resupply. Some of the biggest problems for extended missions are are ammo reloads, fuel and food supplies. With the ship requiring little in the way of ammo expendables and that the ship can make more fuel out of ice that can be found in space the only limiting factor is really food supplies. To keep the ships ammo needs to almost nothing the ship was designed to use only energy weapons. The only system that uses any expendable ammunition is the ships anti missile defense system.

The Colt was expected to take the bulk of an attack in the nose so the weapons in the nose was doubled from the rest of the ships weapon defense.

The ships weakness is if it is boarded. since that was known but little weight could be added for a large number of Space Marines the ship was given two Heavy Armored Infantrymen for external or internal fighting and two Light Armored Infantrymen for internal fighting. As a backup for the Light Armored Infantry a squad of standard Space Marines was added for internal defense. If anyone tries to take the ship with anything but a large number of marines they will be quickly over taken by the armored infantry.
Why argue if the glass is half full or half empty, when you know someone is going to knock it over and spill it anyways.

I was a Major *pain* before
But I got a promotion.
I am now a General *pain*
