The Thunderer class were one of the first "battleship" designs built by the Terrans following their contact with the Vilani.The rapidly advancing technology of the Terrans soon made the design obsolete and they were reclassified as heavy cruisers. Designs effectively identical to the Thunderer continued to be built in backwater areas and some of these managed to survive until the Second Solomani Rim War when virus struck the region. The relatively low tech level of the design meant that a large number were passed on to client states, allies, and governments the Solomani were trying to curry favour with. It is possible that at least some vessels of this class are still in existance. |
