Lore
The Bouldron used to be a powerful economic empire. They had mining ships galore and held planets with the rarest resources found in the universe. The Bouldron were trade partners with countless other factions and were able to mostly avoid and talk themselves out of the major space wars. Then, they were visited by a diplomat from an unknown faction run by an obscure alien race. The diplomat refused to tell the Bouldron the name of the faction he was from, but the Bouldron thought nothing of it. It was normal for diplomats to keep their faction names secret lest they offend the Bouldron. The diplomat asked them many questions about their combat capabilities. The Bouldron were becoming nervous but who would dare attack the mighty Bouldron? They were feared throughout the cosmos because of their once great military power.
Many years ago the Bouldron were a powerful empire made up of the most strategic people throughout the galaxy. Their powerful armada of ships rained destruction upon anyone who stood in their way. They sought planets with the most expensive resources to sell, so they could increase their military's strength. Eventually, the war ended and the Bouldron were met with peace. They found no more use for their powerful ships and scrapped them to make better mining ships and increase their wealth.
After the diplomat saw that the Bouldron no longer had their famed ships, he left. The next day, the Bouldron were attacked by a giant fleet of powerful ships with incredibly destructive new technology. The Bouldron fled with as many ships as they could gather. They had lost all of their economic power and had to start anew. Another war was beginning and the Bouldron were defenseless. They accidentally stumbled upon Voidian territory. All of their police vehicles ( their major military force) were destroyed because of how flimsy they were. The only ships that survived were their mining vehicles because their strong armor protected them. Now, the Bouldron must find a new star system to take control of and retrofit mining ships to create a fleet and return to the days when the Bouldron were feared for their military strength.

Basic Flagships
The Terrorizer
An extremely armored ship. This ship leads small fleets into battle. Equipped with six ion beams, eight electro bolts, and six missile launchers, this ship never stops attacking. If it loses its electro beams it has ion beams and if it loses its ion beams (which is incredibly unlikely because of the large amount of armor) it can pull back and fire missiles from afar.
Mass: 1321.1 Tons
Crew: 276 Souls
Cost: 1,268,575 Credits
The Desolation
An extremely shielded ship. It has six ion beams, fourteen electro bolts, fifteen shields, and an extremely good point defense system. Barely any damage can get through to this thing. Somewhat susceptible to explosions.
Mass: 1,433.4 Tons
Crew: 222 Souls

Elite Flagships
The Pillbug
The flagship of flagships. After borrowing two BSF ships for protection, the Bouldron's elite engineers were able to build THIS. It has 12 ion beams, 24 electro bolts, 12 missile launchers, a large point defense system, and lots of armor. After it was shown to the Bouldron Counsel they were amazed but when asked to name it, they couldn't resist themselves. Even if it looks kind of ridiculous, it can take out ships equaling it's cost with ease and can tank damage from all sides while a fleet destroys the enemy.

Cost: 3,697,300 Credits

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy the designs. More ships will be coming in the future. Also, I will be creating the faction that attacked the Bouldron. I will not be using anyone else's faction as the one that attacked the Bouldron.
