Talk:Colossus (DropShip class)

Well, it seems like I don't remember how to use the infoboxes right. Anyways, don't really remember where exactly I got this info from, I thought it was Dropships and Jumpships but it turns out that was where I found the Fortress class. But I did fill out a Heavy Metal thing on it, just missed the fluff and such. This is like the Fortress class, but much bigger, being the largest military dropship in existance. Like the Fortress it carries artillery that can only be used while landed, instead of the Longtom it has the two Arrow IVs. For transport purposes it carries a full battalion of 36 mechs, 72 vehicles, 12 platoons and 726 tonnes in cargo. 4 Life Boats and 25 Escape Pods. SI of 20 with 60 tonnes of armour (although as I recall the book had it a couple points shy at around 251/221/221/189). 9 officers, 37 enlisted and 9 gunners, pluss the 984 bay personnel with 270 tonnes of supplies. 375 tonnes of fuel with a 3/5 engine. As I recall the fluff said they were very rare and expensive, Clans took 6 with them when they left, 2 others were lost until the 31st, Snord found 1 and the Lyrans got part of that, another group of mercenaries found another much more recently (50s or 60s I think). That totals it with about 8 known Colossus ever made.
