 The Liberties
I have a "Confederation History" section, and the formation of the Terran Confederation is kind of an important part of the Terran Confederation's history, I would say.

 Confederation Jutland class Attack Carrier
Built around a huge "Phase Cannon", the Confederation class dreadnought is a hybrid starship design which combines the sheer firepower of a battleship with the fighter launching capability of a fleet carrier.
The Confederation class Dreadnoughts were originally designated "BAH" as "Battleship Armored Heavy" to reflect their primary role as dreadnoughts, but the fact that they were being used as a carrier a lot more led to their re-designation to "CVS" for Strike Carrier.
With the recent morale-guttering destruction of the TCS Concordia in mid-2669, the TCS Armageddon is the only warship left in the class to carry on the Concordia's proud tradition.

 TOWCRPG : Character Creation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Each career is followed by the section of the Terran Confederation (TCS – Terran Confederation Spaceforce, TCN – TC Navy, or ConInt – Confed Intelligence) that the branch belongs, and the miminum attributes required.
Moving a ten tonne fighter around in freefall is pretty complicated (one of the reasons why TCS and the Kilrathi both use a sophisticated flight computer system to simulate atmospheric flight, but in space), but compared to twisting a 25,000 tonne light carrier, is as easy as falling off a log.
When the TCS fighters have destroyed the enemy fighter cover, and the TCN capital ships have destroyed the enemy capital ships, any Kilrathi troops that have made it onto the planets surface have to be neutralised, and the only way to do this effectively is face-to-face combat.
