Ship could carry whole [[Trinary]] of [[OmniMech]]s while being better armored and armed than precursor. − Many of the [[Star League-in-Exile|Star League In Exile's]] ''Unions'' were mothballed in the demobilization that followed the founding of the [[Pentagon]] worlds. They thus survived the destructive [[Pentagon Civil War]], only to be reactivated in the aftermath and found useful in the colonization of the new [[Kerensky Cluster]] worlds. The new Clans required the redesign of the class to fit their new doctrines and increased the class's mass to 4,700 tons, with new vessels starting their service in May [[2829]].<ref name=TRO305r78/> − − Though each of the upper three decks contains its own accommodations, including recreation and mess facilities, the layout of the decks exemplifies the Clan's view on each caste. The laborers and support personnel use the lowest of the non-bay decks, which is also home to the life-support system. The Mechwarriors occupy the second deck, which contains the ''Union-C's'' [[Escape Pod|escape pods]], while the topmost deck belongs to the crew's single-occupancy cabins.<ref name=TRO305r78/> ==Armament== ==Armament== − The weaponry of the ''Union-C'' is based on laser weapons plus [[gauss rifle|Gauss rifles]] and [[LRM|LRMs]], but the ship was not designed for long fights as its ammunition can be depleted within 10 minutes. The ''Union-C'' matches the upgraded Inner Sphere ''Union'' introduced by [[Federated-Boeing]] in weaponry, though the Clan ship boasts better heat management and superior armor.+ '''Union-C''' weaponry is based on Laser weapons with support of Gauss and LRMs, however ship wasn't designed for longer fights as ammunition can be depleted within 10 minutes.
