Confederation-Class Dreadnought Terran Confederation Navy – Heavy Flagship / Sector Command Vessel Role: Strategic Reserve / Last Line Defense
Beschreibung
The TCS Solaris is a Confederation-class Dreadnought, the pinnacle of Terran naval engineering—a mobile fortress and strategic command platform designed to dominate entire sectors. Built during the later stages of the Terran-Kilrathi War, the Solaris is both a weapon of last resort and a symbol of peace through unmatched power.
As a Confederation-class Dreadnought, she is one of only a few of her kind—a fleet-command platform, battleship, and heavy carrier all in one frame.
Historie
The Solaris was laid down in 2665 at the Jupiter Naval Yards, its design born out of grim necessity. With the Kilrathi pushing deeper into the Enigma and Vega sectors, the Confederation authorized a new dreadnought not just to fight, but to last—to be the wall that didn't break when all others did.
Command was offered to numerous senior officers. Most declined. The vessel was too slow, too expensive, too defensive for glory.
Then came Buloth.
A graduate of the Mars Naval College, Ghad Buloth never sought promotion, never courted favor. His rise came because every battle he fought ended with zero surprises and maximum efficiency. His superiors called him unimaginative. His subordinates called him unshakeable. The war called him inevitable.
He accepted the Solaris without a speech. He merely took the handbook from the shipyard quartermaster, flipped to “Sector Defense Command Protocols,” and said:
“We will proceed on schedule. And we will not fail.”
Now two years into active deployment by 2667, Solaris has served with distinction in multiple hot zones across Vega and Enigma sectors, and currently serves as the flagship of the 3rd Terran Battle Fleet. She's a force multiplier and morale pillar in a war that's pushed humanity to its limits.
Missionsparameter
Protects must not fall—starbases, war factories, research and command structures. While the other ships hunts, Solaris waits. Quiet. Cold. Watching.
Jump Gate Stabilizers
High-orbit Naval Foundries
Advanced Starfighter Production Facilities
TCN Sector Command Headquarters (Enigma Command)
Civilian Colonies deemed Essential Support Infrastructure
While other ships participate in offensive fleet actions across the Enigma Sector—striking deep into Kilrathi-controlled systems—the TCS Solaris serves a more solemn and terrifying role: she is the guardian of everything the Confederation cannot afford to lose.
🛰 Reputation & Role
Among Confederation officers, she’s known as the “Last Word”—if the Solaris arrives, negotiations are likely over.
Among front-line pilots and officers, the Solaris is referred to as the “Sun of Sol”—a rare appearance of power from Earth itself in contested deep space. When her silhouette crosses a system’s edge, it often signals both reinforcement and retribution. For the Kilrathi, sensor echoes of the Solaris have become an omen of pending orbital devastation.
Under Buloth, the Solaris is less a symbol of flair and more a monument to execution. It represents Confederation order at maximum efficiency—a war machine that doesn’t adapt to chaos; it erases it.
Reputation: "If Solaris enters a system, she already knows the outcome."
Nickname among crew: “The Manual” — because every battle goes by the book.

WarLord
“Warlord doesn’t think outside the box—he reinforces the box, calibrates it to maximum pressure, and crushes you with it.” – Rear Admiral T. Hadrix, Enigma Sector Command
Fleet Admiral Buloth is not an innovator, and that’s exactly why he’s dangerous. He follows doctrine to the letter, wielding the Confederation Naval Warbook like scripture. But what sets him apart is his ability to flawlessly apply standard tactics to any battlefield situation, using exhaustive data analysis, predictive modeling, and zero deviation from optimized battle plans.
He doesn’t improvise. He executes—with terrifying precision.
Key Quote (from Buloth’s address to Solaris crew):
“Victory is not a mystery. It is a matter of angles, ranges, doctrine, and will. We will not surprise the enemy—we will surround them with inevitability.”
Buloth is not loved by his crew. But he is respected without question. Every schedule, every formation, every maintenance check is followed to the letter. Not because he demands it—but because his war has never failed.
When officers ask if Solaris will ever return to the front lines, his answer is always the same:
“When everything else breaks. When all variables fail. When the last plan fails. Then they will meet the last page of the book.”
“And on that page… we are written in fire.”
