User:Phalanx-a-pedian/Example Olympus class Battleship merged

The Olympus-class battleship is a Class of battleship used by the Galactic Federation Fleet. The Olympus-class was designed to carry an Aurora Unit and act as the flagship for the fleets they are in. Due to space gained from having an Aurora unit onboard they carry superior weapons systems and need less crew members than other ships of a similar size. They are crewed by three main varieties of crew members, including Troopers, and tech specialists, as well as engineers. They carry many Stiletto-class fighters and Aries-Class Transport Vessels, and are able to dock with smaller escort frigates. They contain at least five docking bays capable of accomodating ships up to the size of an Aries-class transport, and launch fighters out of them from conveyor belts that run through the ship. These docking bays have a small area for using the Training Drones, which are used by the soldiers aboard for training and entertainment. They are powered by Fuel Gel.

Olympus class Battleships are very durable. During the battle above Norion a Space Pirate laser destroys a Griffin-class frigate in a single shot but hits an Olympus-class ship twice without any visible damage. When a Space Pirate battleship fired directly at the Olympus's bridge no visible damage was coursed.

GFS Olympus

 * The G.F.S. Olympus, the original Olympus-class battleship was constructed in the Aliehs III ship yards 20 years prior to Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Commanded by Fleet Admiral Dane, it is the flagship of the large Galactic Federation fleet stationed above planet Norion in the Kalandor Region. During the events of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption It is the first area Samus Aran explores. . Samus and three other Bounty Hunters are being briefed by Admiral Dane about a new mission when it is attacked by Space Pirates. During the battle the Hunters help repel the Pirates. One month later the Olympus is were Samus wakes up in the PED Suit, and where she tests Hypermode. Later the Olympus leads the invasion of the Pirate Homeworld during witch it launches it's fighters and landing craft whilst bombarding primary targets from orbit. Shortly afterwards when Samus acquires the command codes for the Leviathan orbiting the Pirate Homeworld, The Olympus takes control of it and uses it to create a wormhole to Phaaze. The Olympus leads the assault on the Space Pirate force above the planet while Samus lands on Phaaze and searches for Dark Samus. The ships Aurora Unit is Aurora Unit 242.

GFS Valhalla


The G.F.S. Valhalla was another Olympus-class battleship. It was attacked by Space Pirates during a training mission in the Klar Nebula four months before the events of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. A GF reconnaissance drone was sent to the station which revealed footage of the ship with a very large amount of damage dealt to the ship. The savagery of the attack was remarkable, even for Space Pirates. Equally unusual is that they left behind valuable components frequently stolen in prior Space Pirate raids. A ship as formidable as the Valhalla has never before been attacked by the Space Pirates, suggesting mobilization and organization never before experienced. The bodies of the crew often cover consoles and may be destroyed by Beam weaponry. All they stole was an Aurora Unit — Aurora Unit 313. The ship itself seems to be corrupted with Phazon, suggesting that Dark Samus herself was present in the attack.

The wreck of the G.F.S. Valhalla can be visited in Metroid Prime 3, where it is found in the Gaflar System. It is inhabited by Phazon creatures such as Miniroids and Phaz-Ing. Although the location of this ship is accesible since a mid point of the game (short after retrieving the Screw Attack), it cannot be fully explored until a certain amount of Energy Cells are collected; in fact, G.F.S. Valhalla is ultimately one of the final levels of the game. The Leviathan Command Codes can be found in a Space Pirate Boarding Craft deep within the ship.

Logbook Entry
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: "The Olympus-class battleship is the first Federation capital ship designed to use an onboard Aurora Unit. They are the flagships of the fleets they serve in, usually commanded by an officer of flag rank. Battleships of this class have smaller crews than most ships of a similar size due to the presence of the Aurora Unit. The space saved in crew support is used for more battle systems. The enormous vessels are powered by Fuel Gel, making the scarce commodity of extreme value to the Federation military."

Trivia

 * In Greek mythology, Mount Olympus was regarded as the "home of the gods", specifically of the Twelve Olympians, the twelve principal gods of the ancient Hellenistic world. Any climb to Mount Olympus starts from the town of Litochoro, which took the name City of Gods because of its location on the roots of the mountain. Mount Olympus was the home of the 12 Olympian gods. Mount Olympus was the most worshipped mountain of Greece. Olympus was surrounded by Uranus, the heaven. It never rained on Mount Olympus nor was it ever windy, only some clouds were appearing from time to time to bless the world with water.


 * Mount Olympus is a popular mountain name. Apart from the Greek Olympus, there was a mountain of the same name in ancient Phrygia and also currently one in Cyprus, one in Utah, one in Washington, one in San Francisco, CA, one on Mars, and many others.


 * In Norse mythology, Valhalla (from Old Norse Valhöll "hall of the slain") is a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard, ruled over by the god Odin. Chosen by Odin, half of those that die in combat travel to Valhalla upon death, led by Valkyries, while the other half go to the goddess Freyja's field Fólkvangr. In Valhalla, the dead join the masses of those who have died in combat known as Einherjar, as well as various legendary Germanic heroes and kings, as they prepare to aid Odin during the events of Ragnarök. Before the hall stands the golden tree Glasir, and the hall's ceiling is thatched with golden shields. Various creatures live around Valhalla, such as the stag Eikþyrnir and the goat Heiðrún, both described as standing atop Valhalla and consuming the foliage of the tree Læraðr.


 * The dead Trooper's on the Valhalla have the names of some of the staff at Retro Studios.
