Description
Original “Kannlan class Destroyer” by “Admiral Kruger” [link]Modified by me for a “Rifts” RPG game, the modified version is called the “Bravo Type” it’s a universal hull that can be easily modified to suit any mission, that is, the base design can be changed for different roles before the ship is built, once built for a certain mission, it can’t be altered without a major refit.

Good fences make good neighbours.
With the continuing growth of the surrounding powers, the Alliance needed a way to reinforce its borders, to this end the 1st of the “Blockader” class Mine Layers was commissioned in 178CE, though not many would be built, they would help defend the alliance in its hours of need, by laying both static defensive mine fields along the border regions and on the fly in combat zones as the situation demanded.

Well the mines are rather large for a start (2 or 4 would destroy a Cruiser size ship), you'd get about 10 mines per tube, 10 tubes per side pod, so 100 per pod, 200 in total, they would work in groups of 2 to 4 ships & would also be supported by Transporter class freighters to carry extra mines.

So if you had a small armada you could wipe out a fleet more or less.

Yes, I’d say so, but in this setting they were built in relatively limited numbers, no more than six dozen, just enough to protect important border systems, or to funnel enemy ships into the sights of the Main Battle Fleet.

Something like that I'd use to lay a trap with.

Yes, that’s exactly what they we’re designed for.
