[b]Bridge Crew:[/b] ~20 (Commander, Pilot, Tactical, Engineering, Communications, assorted support staff)
[b]Creator(s):[/b] Melarnic Galactic Merchant Exchange


[b]Ability Data[/b]

[b]That's no Moon, it's... oh wait:[/b] The Mother Ship is a moon, and thus is unable to be effectively damaged by conventional attacks.
[b]Factory Complex:[/b] The Mother Ship is also a fully equipped factory complex, able to quickly and automatically produce the various combat units used by the MGME. Richard Temple has modified the routines used by the complex to equip each unit with a remote control system, similar to the one used on Knight Matey's Squires.
[b]Warp Drive:[/b] The Mother Ship is equipped with the largest warp drive ever made, in order to allow the moon itself to travel to other systems. However, with it's size comes drawbacks; the drive takes hours to recharge. This is usually not an issue, though.


[b]Weapon Data[/b]

[b]Point-Defense Turrets:[/b] Countless rapid fire energy and ballistic turrets, intended to shoot down incoming projectiles of any kind; from micro-missiles to ballistic nuclear missiles.
[b]Close-Combat Energy Cannons:[/b] Countless rapid-fire energy cannons mounted in pop-up turrets all over the Mother Ship, used to keep Mateys or fighters at bay.
[b]Anti-Matey Missile Launchers:[/b] Countless missile tubes mounted in pop-up turrets all over the Mother Ship, firing an inexhaustible number of missiles of all kinds, produced within the factory complex. Known missile types used are high-explosive, cluster, incendary, minefield, net, glue, and haywire.
[b]Anti-Ship Missile Launchers:[/b] Countless missile tubes mounted in pop-up turrets all over the Mother Ship, firing an inexhaustible number of ballistic missiles of all kinds, produced within the factory complex. Known missile types used are high-explosive, cluster, nuclear, and anti-energy field.



[b]Technical and Historical Notes[/b]

Not really a ship at all, the Mother Ship was actually a massive battle station built within Melar's moon. Equipped with a warp drive, innumerable weapons, and a complete factory complex, the Mother Ship was designed to be able to go to any battle field and crush any opposition with overwhelming firepower.

However, the Mother Ship was not really completed when the MGME collapsed (in fact, building it was kind of the reason why), and since it was all done in secret, no one actually knew the moon was anything but a moon until the MRC dug around some classified documents they uncovered on Melar. MRC Supreme Commander, Richard Temple, took command of the Mother Ship personally, renaming it The Revival of Melar, and ordered it finished to be used as the centerpiece of his plan to rebuild the MGME.
