QBS Ships

QBS Ships - Queen's Battle Ships Not all of the ships used by Bethane Anne have been listed, as there were some only mentioned once. Below are the most noteworthy and most mentioned in the Gambit.

QBS Achronix TKG 16/11 TKG 16/11 Tabitha’s own Ranger ship. Scaled-down, human version of the G’laxix Sphaea. Can handle 10 people (Tabitha, 6 Tontos, 3 passengers. EI in ship named Achronix, Tabitha's personal EI. also helps her with earthside things. Completely black. Every cabin has a double bed (pull-out), for company. Tables rise and descend (into floor) as needed.

QBS Alexander (Reynolds) TKG 18/5 Original name was QBS Reynolds. Renamed QBS Alexander, because of confusion with real life Reynolds. Only small ship in Etheric Empire that can gate Similar to ArchAngel II, but less people, more bots. Capt. Natalia Jakowski in command. Ship provides information on locations of defensive asteroids all over system, for planning.

QBS ArchAngel TGS 01/10, 16 Puck Destroyer, Leviathan-Class Battleship Originally destroyed when Bethany Anne went through Gate, in fight with Yollins. Much of its database had been salvaged and transferred to another ship. That vessel was consequently dubbed QBS ArchAngel II in honor of the first. Even the A.I., also known as ArchAngel, had been transferred. I saw the ArchAngel blow up firsthand. Are you telling me this is the same ship? Did you just rebuild it from scratch?” Julianna asked. “It’s the same ship,” Lance confirmed. “In fact, you’ll never guess who else is here.” A screen lit up on a nearby wall and a woman’s face appeared on it. Her eyes were so large that they seemed intimidating. “Greetings, everyone,” she told them. “I’m ArchAngel. It’s good to meet you. “I thought the A.I. was moved to the other ship, QBS ArchAngel II?” Julianna asked. “No, she was only copied, not transferred. The original A.I. had to be left behind. “I was salvaged, though, after several decades, I’m told,” said ArchAngel. We had to leave the ship behind for a while during the war, but a few decades ago, I had her rebuilt. We used the original as much as possible, but scrapped everything that wasn’t up to code.” “This ship has been upgraded with a largely automated system, which means ArchAngel, the A.I., not the ship, can handle most of the smaller tasks. I expect this ship to avoid combat, unless it is absolutely necessary, so you’ll be relying largely on the Q-Ships. When you aren’t using them, this will act as your home and a place to regroup.” Hatch had wondered what might have become of the many and varied projects he had worked on during his short time with the Federation. Now he knew. This refurbished ship, the one taken from the wreckage in an ancient battle, had become something of a personal showcase for him—the manifestation of his legacy

QBS Coach's Revenge TKG 15/20 Captain Maximilian Wagner looked around his ship, the newly christened Coach’s Revenge and nodded to his number one. Unlike others, Max knew the power of his EI, and he reduced his team crewing the ship to just seven, plus himself. A total of eight humans, fourteen repair bots, six universal bots, another twelve Marine bots, and whoever he was transporting at the time, like the Guardians and Guardian Marines below.The EI’s name was shortened to Revenge. His ship was similar to the G’laxix Sphaea, modified for humans and tweaked for war, not scouting. Ship similar to the G’laxix Sphaea. Modified for humans, tweaked for war. Not a scout. Capt. Max Wagner. (8 humans, EI, named Revenge, 14 repair bots, 6 universal bots, 12 Marine bots, +transporting passengers. Built in honor of Steve Hewgley, one of the Moon Base’s first inhabitants, killed when Yollins boarded Space station One, Nicknamed "Coach", so commemorated by ship with his name.

QBS Consanesco TKG 09/14, 15 Name means “Be healed” or “Recover”. At suggestion of Cheryl Lynn, medical healing was offered to heroes.
