The Neithorngom-Class Battleship is a new Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Nougpift fourth-generation battleship. It is a Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Xhrafuklurp (SMX) vessel that was first encountered during the Third Mishhuvurthyar War, in YE 45.

The introduction of the Sharie-class Battleship during the Second Mishhuvurthyar War in YE 31 became a pivoting moment for the Star Army of Yamatai, which helped turn the war in their favor. The Sharie-class Battleship proved the Blrakkrashiverinth Battleship fielded by the SMX and the NMX Line Battleship to be inferior on the battlefield. The leadership of the Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Nougpift demanded a new class of battleship, but soon after the death of the NMX commander, Sprufnikkamazzar, in YE 33 during the Battle of Yamatai, the war had turned against them and resources began to dwindle as the Star Army of Yamatai shattered their supply lines.

After the loss of the Second Mishhuvurthyar War, from YE 34 onward the Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Nougpift leadership brooded over the reasons they lost to the Yamatai Star Empire. Among the many reasons they lost, the powerful Sharie-class Battleship remained a wound to their pride until their design for the Neithorngom-Class Battleship began to come together during YE 41. The design continued to be developed and several of the ships were launched, tested, and perfected until it was finally ready for full service in YE 45 at the commencement of the Third Mishhuvurthyar War.

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship was birthed out of spite and hatred for the Star Army of Yamatai. The Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Nougpift went as far as to observe the Sharie-class Battleship in battle during the Kuvexian War. The new design had become an obsession and a reincarnation of their desire for revenge. Its design was shaped to make the Neithorngom-Class the power behind the new SMX hordes that would terrorize the Kikyo Sector. It would be a ship from which fleets would be commanded, and populated urban centers on planets could be decimated from orbit. Like most SMX ships it would become a place where prisoners of war could be inturned and enslaved; forced to serve their new Mishhuvurthyar masters.

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship is designed for the roles of:

• Fleet Command and Combat
• Star System Invasion
• Orbital Bombardment

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship was designed to be feared by the Star Army of Yamatai.

The design of the Neithorngom-Class Battleship is a colossal and terrifying vessel that embodies the very essence of eldritch horror and monstrosity. Designed by the most brilliant and unhinged minds of the SMX faction, this nightmarish warship strikes fear into the hearts of its enemies as it cruises through the Kagami Galaxy with the rest of its accompanying horde. Its exterior hull appears almost bone-like, or antler-like with Aether spines and integrated weapons that hold an eerie pink plasmatic glow. In addition to its most advanced systems and devastating weapons, it has an appearance that inflicts psychological horror on anyone who has encountered it.

The dimensions of the Battleship are as follows:

• Length: 600m
• Width: 1300m
• Height: 800m

This vessel complies with the Starship Speed Standard.

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship is not designed for atmospheric or underwater operations.

This vessel's damage capacity statistics are in compliance with Damage Rating (Version 3).

Damage Rating (Version 3) is Tier 14.

The interior of the Neithorngom-Class Battleship is a confusing labyrinth of unprecedented horror; like most SMX ships they are a mixture of electronics with walls, floors, and ceilings coated in hemosynthetic flesh. The interiors are often described as having a faint latex-like scent, and the flesh-covered structures are coated in a slippery slime or mucus.

Most notably the ship has densely populated clusters of containment cells where captured Nekovalkyrja and other species are tortured and enslaved. These areas are generally overseen by the cruelest of the Mishhuvurthyar on the ship.

The subsystems of the Neithorngom-Class Battleship.

The Neithorngom-Class utilizes a primarily Sotuleg hull structure. All windows and viewports utilize Transparent Zesuaium.

Systems Integrated into the Hull:

• Mishhuvurthyar Integrated CFS Array - this provides propulsion in CDD, defense, and stealth operation.
• Hemosynthetic System, a system which uses the femtomechanical nature of Hemosynthetics. Assists with damage control and other functions.

The ship is powered by decentralized Aether generators spread throughout the ship, the highest number of which are located in and around the engineering compartments. The ship has several secondary Quantum Foam Generators and capacitor systems. Mishhuvurthyar aether plasma has a distinct pink coloured glow.

The Neithorngom-Class utilizes the advanced Mmo-mep Brain Slave System, which has the same capabilities as the Star Army of Yamatai's KAMI. It includes a full suite of integrated communications and sensors.

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship is equipped with Common Life Support Systems that is integrated with the Mishhuvurthyar Hemosynthetic System.

The ship has Common Emergency Systems and the SMX utilize their Hota-Class Battlepod as escape pods.

Utilizing advanced Fabrication Systems the Neithorngom-Class Battleship is capable of producing most of the materials it needs while in transit. This includes replacement parts, tools, weapons, ammunition, and other systems. The ship also has a large production bay on the ventral face of the ship, which can provide repairs or construction of escort (up to 4) or gunship-sized (up to 2) vessels.

The Neithorngom-Class Battleship is equipped with a powerful selection of weapons:

• 2 x Multi-Mode Aether Shock Array - Tier 15
• Neithorngom Aether Spine Array - Serves as the main turret/cannon array for the ship. Located on the antler-like structures of the ship.
  • 16 x Major Spine (Tier 12 - Heavy Anti-Starship)
  • 12 x Minor Spine (Tier 10 - Light Anti-Starship)
  • 10 x Cluster Spine (Tier 7 - Light Anti-Mecha)
• 70 x Goschatha Point Defense Cannons (Tier 4 - Light Anti-Armor) -Retractable.On elevators hidden beneath movable hull plates spread over the hull of the ship.
• 4 x Multi-Purpose Torpedo Launchers

The small craft inventory¹⁾ of the ship can be changed, but it usually includes:

• 1000 x Hota-Class Battlepod
• 1500 x Ripper Power Armor
• Various Shuttles
