Line 1: Line 1:
Breen starships have been developed almost exclusively for raiding and warfare. With a large section of the Confederacy's cultural mores and economy focused on raiding, most of their ships are able to carry troops to seize the goods and slaves of their enemies, and have the cargo space to make off with them. This means these ships usually have very cramped conditions to make room for barracks and cargo bays. With the Breen conducting military offensives against Starfleet in recent years and continued scraps with the Cardassian Union over the past quarter-century, many of their commanders are battle-hardened and know how to use their ships to best effect. They are, however, likely to be experienced with small border clashes or raiding engagements than full-on deployments, and there is little sign of the Breen Confederacy performing much by way of war games to practice operating in large units.

Starfleet captains are briefed to be wary of the rapid deployments of Breen ships - many of them are quick and highly manoeuvrable, and will use this to their advantage. They are also prone to deploying their landing troops as boarding parties if the opportunity or necessity arises. If trying to protect a location from Breen raiding, captains are advised that they are practiced in tying up their enemies to allow other raiders to get past and make off with their target. A less combat-focused Starfleet crew may occasionally struggle in adapting to the rapidity and versatility of Breen enemies.

Conversely, Starfleet ships have the edge in technology, even if they are less likely to be dedicated warships. A Starfleet captain using their ship's combat capability to capacity should be able to harness their more powerful engines and weapons to secure the advantage. Likewise, a Starfleet ship's scientific capabilities usually makes captains more able to use their environment to their advantage, or identify other weaknesses about their enemies. Starfleet crews that have been heavily trained for combat are likely to be more prepared for Breen tricks, and are more likely to have been drilled on working with other ships in larger-scale deployments.

The ''Plesh Tral'' Heavy Raider is a fast and sturdy [[Breen Confederacy|Breen]] warship, and the vessel most often encountered by [[Starfleet]] along the border. It is not a large vessel, designed to be quick and evasive rather than stand its ground in a fight, but is well-armed and armoured and more than capable of picking apart an enemy piece by piece. Starfleet Intelligence suspects it operates with a reasonably small crew, as the ''Plesh Tral'' is known to usually retain aboard a landing force for boarding or raiding actions, as well as having cargo space for anything looted. This leaves little capacity for a crew to operate the ship itself, and conditions aboard must be cramped even by the standards of non-Starfleet ships.
=== Ship's Tour ===
====Captain's Ready Room====
The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the [[Raven Class]] is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.  


As a scout ship, it has consistently been used to perform reconnaissance of [[Federation]] territory, gauging local defences and identifying possible targets for raids or even larger attacks. However, the ''Plesh Tral'' is also effective in groups, and is sometimes deployed in wings with two or more other raiders. This can allow multiple raiders to act as a formidable opponent on their own, but is also a common deployment on escort operations of larger ships with more important duties. One raider, when spotted, might be all that's out there - or it could be the harbinger of a bigger strike force for which it's scouting.
The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.


These ships are easy to repair and cheap to build. This means lone captains are fond of hit-and-runs where they can take some strikes and patch up later, but it also means that strike force commanders are more willing to sacrifice them entirely to achieve their goals. Due to its size and role, the ''Plesh Tral'' often operates independently, and Breen captains are expected to use their own discretion in selecting targets - but this means there is often nobody coming to save them if they misjudge.
On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.


===In Play===
Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs.
* The ''Plesh Tral'' is the ubiquitous 'small' enemy Breen ship - on its own, only a threat to the weakest or smallest of Starfleet ships, but often deployed in wings.
* It's also the most multi-functional of Breen ships. It scouts for appropriate targets, conducts raids against the weakest for supplies or slaves, and provides escort for larger vessels. This means sighting one doesn't mean the Breen want a fight - they might be conducting recon, or they might be expecting lighter opposition than a Starfleet ship and decide against a confrontation.
* The Breen keep a landing force aboard to support their raiding operations, so they can grab goods or slaves and turn tail. But they're not above sending boarding parties in a straight-up fight if they think it'll help.


====The Observation Lounge====
At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table. In the middle of the table, you will find a holographic 3D device that can project any ship, planet, or astronomical object shown during a mission briefing.


==Chel Boalg Warship==
On the wall, there are paintings of various famous exploration ships. One of those is the USS Enterprise. On the other side, you will find big windows that show the back of the ship and a great view of space itself. It is said that Ensign T'path was mostly found here, as it brought her calmness while practicing her Vulcan meditation. While on the floor before the window, you will find a classic earth-designed carpet with that dark red color.

The ''Chel Boalg'' warship lies at the heart of the Breen military. A large, multi-role combatant, it is an impressive warship more likely to be under the command and control of Breen leadership than the smaller heavy raiders. On borders it is assigned to protect key locations, and has a fairly tight patrol area so it can keep vulnerable or important regions safe. It may still be assigned on raiding missions against tougher targets, and is the largest of Breen ships seen beyond their borders outside of outright war.
Back at the entree on the right, you will find a corner for one person to sit and relax. Dr. Ruslanovna has the hobby of creating something of every mission in the form of a beautiful painting. It is in this corner that these small paintings are hanging.


With multiple weapon emplacements, a high level of manoeuvrability, and an impressive complement of troops aboard, the ''Chel Boalg'' is a versatile and dangerous foe. While nowhere near as fast as the heavy raiders, in a fight it is as quick as any Starfleet ship of its size. If fighting with escorts it tends to hold the centre of any Breen battle lines, drawing and directing fire. On its own, or in larger operations where more of its class are fielded, the ''Chel Boalg'' may single out key enemy ships and use its manoeuvrability and firepower to close and pin them down. If the Breen need to get troops on the ground under heavy fire, raiders will often protect a ''Chel Boalg'' making a run for the planet or station so it can drop troop transports before returning to the fight.
====Main Engineering====
From deck 1 to 3 you will find in the middle of the ship the heart of all its power, the main engineering. When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment.


The presence of a ''Chel Boalg'' warship means the Breen have come to fight, especially if accompanied by an escort of heavy raiders. Alone, they are a fair fight for many Starfleet ships, and not easily dispatched by any. Their captains have often been battle-hardened been hardened by the recent hostilities with Starfleet and historical conflicts with the Cardassians and Tzenkethi.

{{clear}}
* A run-in with a ''Chel Boalg'' warship usually means the Breen expect and are ready for a fight. While it has been seen on its own conducting raids in Federation space against tempting and more well-defended targets, it is often accompanied by heavy raiders.
* In a fair fight, a small Starfleet ship should think twice about engaging. All but the mightiest Starfleet ships should bring reinforcements, tactical brilliance, or not expect to get through the fight unscathed.
* When fighting alongside other ships, the ''Chel Boalg'''s role depends on if it is the lone warship. If so, it forms the centre of a flight of heavy raiders and tries to draw enemy fire so those raiders can inflict significant widespread damage. If not, and without other mission objectives to divert it, a ''Chel Boalg'' may single out notable enemy ships and use its manoeuvrability and firepower to keep them contained.

The USS Jaxartes is a Raven-class multi-mission light starship.

Missions

Start-Up Problems - 2393

A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.

Ship's Tour

Captain's Ready Room

The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the Raven Class is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.

The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.

On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.

Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs.

At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table.
