Hence, it was decided to convert many of the heavy tugs used in the construction of the Mothership into the new heavily armored, battle-capable vessels that would be able to survive combat and dock with an enemy vessel and gain important information from it or tow it back to the Mothership for capture. The Porter, as this particular tug was known, was pulled back to the Mothership and Scaffold for refitting and it became the basis for the corvette design used for combat corvettes such as the " Cavalier " and " Hammer ". The new design, the Porter Mk. 2, had several modifications. First, more armor was added to protect it from enemy fire. Advanced computers using AI-driven viruses, subvert and override programs, and decryption routines were added to its equipment. These subversion routines, which would work best on damaged ships, increase in power when there are more Porters assisting. Porters operate alone, as to draw little attention, and only on rare occasions will carry even a Scout escort. A tour of duty aboard a Porter is hence, much like in the case of the Porter's Taiidan equivalent the " Tiirshak ", considered disciplinary duty in most cases. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
