Description With the world they colonised many centuries ago now geologically unstable and weakened by years of devastating warfare, the newly rebuilt trio
of original colossal colony ships set out once again on an exodus to locate a new planet suitable for colonisation. The only requirements are a
breathable atmosphere, a stable eco-system, and sufficient mineral deposits to rebuild a technological ‘civilisation’. In the event that the new world
is currently occupied by an indigenous, sapient species, this inconvenience will be swiftly dealt with in the time-honoured fashion of this race….
   

After some viewers expressed a wish to see the whole ship; this is the follow-up to my previous 'Colossus' piece. Hope you like this one folks....

What a terrifying bunch 'o behemoths! I can only hope a GSV intercepts them before they trash another planet!! Special Circumstances style!

Thanks JR! I suppose this scene could concievably fit within the Culture universe; some real 'baddies' do exist there after all!
