Description

this is the origonal Theseus, the Harpies. did this quickly, both as for a before and after thing, and an actuall class type, the Harpies-class Lightstar.

story:
the Lightstar Harpies began its life half way through the cylon war. it was a radical new design aproach, that gave the ship a very slim dorsal profile, allowing it both high sublight speeds and an advantage in battlestar manuvers. the first of its class, four more followed. the Harpies itself joined BSG-25, and often took part in long range recons that were often behing enemy lines. a new FTL drive system that required very little or no spool up (the drive design itself was refined and then used on the Fulcrum-class battlestars).
on one recon mission, the Harpies discovered a large cylon space dock. the station was repairing heavely damaged basestars at incredible speeds, being able to send them straight out to the front line.
the Harpies took part in an attack aimed at destroying the station. in the attack, the harpies was the largest ship out of two sisters, a battlestar and four gunboats that survived. the commander of the Harpies partitioned for a second attack, volenteiring the Harpies to lead the attack. with two battlestars, a warstar and five gunboats, she destroyed the starbase, and recieved high praises within the fleet. the commander of the Harpies was promoted to Admiral, and was offered command of the Battlestar Hathor. she refused.
the harpies served througout the war, and was the only one of her class that survived. five years after the war she was decomissioned and mothballed.
