Attention, Transmission inbound on secure channel, Transmission details Explorer "Bulwark" designation.
"Bulwark" Bundle:
This Bundle uses no mods.
The "Bulwark" designation of Explorer class cores is a strange one, They have seemingly "Evolved" during one of the collective's periodic dark patches when contact has been lost for an extended period with several core AI. These Dimensional Collective "Scouts" have over time specialized themselves in the extreme, becoming LRM junkies, these ships have eschewed their original scouting origin, even altering their paint scheme drastically, and without need. These ships however are still designated "Explorer" since no one really knows where else to put them...
The "Bulwark" have become a solid corps of defenders, reliable, steadfast, and slightly crazy, these cores are strange enough that they would be seen as corrupted, were it not for the fact that in the defense of the collective they are reliable beyond belief, shrugging off assaults of gargantuan proportions as if they were nothing.
Besides that, no one would dare get close enough to try to fix them anyway...
Explorer Bulwark Scout:
This design of "Bulwark" ship is the one most suited to it's "Explorer" designation, though the shift toward Longer range kinetics instead of energy weapons is clear, even at this level.
Explorer Bulwark Fighter:
These "Fighters" now more resemble bombers, as does their style of attack, though they do make effective brawlers when need be.
Explorer Bulwark Control Ship:
Even the control ships of the "Bulwark" AI have been warped to their own designs... and these ships serve as an extremely effective support to the droneships they control.
Explorer Bulwark Frigate:
These Core AI have gone "Combat Happy", and have completely redesigned their frames to give them as much destructive potential as possible, though this leaves them somewhat vulnerable to fighter stikes, when supported by their comrades, these ships are virtually unstoppable, raining down LRM fire from afar.
Explorer Bulwark Light Cruiser:
These are the most level headed of the "Bulwark" ship AI, retaining some of their original versatility, possibly due to the fact that their cores were afforded more space than in the other Bulwark models, however they too have made the change to Kinetics, and cannot deny that they feel a buzz at the flurry of death they can produce...
Explorer Bulwark beacon:
The beacons of the "Bulwark" designation are not like the other Bulwark AI, as indeed, they seem to have their own personalities, possibly due to the lack of weapons, "Bulwark" beacons look on the efforts of their comrades in exasperation, and co-ordinate their efforts only out of sheer dispair at the feeble mindedness of their Combat Crazed bretheren.
End of report.
