*Although the
flagship has 8 salvage points, it cannot be salvaged.
In the
climactic battle of the Homeworld War, the Exiles and the
forces of the Taiidan Imperial Guard clashed in close
Hiigara orbit. Emperor Riesstiu IV himself commanded his
forces from aboard the massive Flagship of the Imperial
Guard, similar in size and capability to the Kushan
Mothership. However, Mad Emperor Reisstiu proved to be no
better a military commander than he was a ruler; the Taiidan
forces were crushed by the Kushan in this decisive battle.
If there ever
any doubt that the Firepower rating is completely
meaningless, this entry should prove it. Despite a supposed
firepower rating of 7,500, the Taiidan or Kushan motherships
couldn't successfully thwart an attack of space mosquitoes.
