SFB style Kzinti BB

Description
The Patriarch Class battleship was the most powerful warship of the Kzinti Hegemony from the mid 2280s through the 1st decade of the of the 23rd century. At a time when large missiles are not common weapons on a starship the Patriarch\'s main battery is centered around 10 launchers. Kzinti drones however are not your everyday garden variety missile. Complex sensor masking systems make it almost impossible for the weapons to be targeted by the targets weapons. As if that wasn\'t enough these drones punch straight through shields making life very hard on smaller ships. A mix of phasers and disruptors back up the drones.

Unlike the Klingons and Romulans the Kzinti are one of the Races that chose not to design a second generation battleship. Like all of the first generation BBs Patriarch is basically an massive overgrown dreadnought. 682m long with 1310 crewmen; he is a formidable opponent in any battle. Patriarch\'s only real flaw is not one of equipment. Kzinti have a physiological need for fresh raw meat and to hunt and kill it themselves. Patriarch lacks the space to carry large numbers of live prey animals limiting his strategic range when out of supply.
