The Heed Of all the ships in the Setnin Sector, this vehicle has truly passed into the annals of legend. Constructed by Janite workers using their own tools and equipment at the Shipyards of Zelon many years ago and buried in a hidden location, the Heed was a 6.8 Kilometre long capital ship with a crew of 148,072, carrying 39,000 troops and having enough consumables to sustain them for 6 years. Its 140,000 metric tonne cargo capacity was enormous, and with its x3 hyperdrive multiplier was fast for a capital ship. Armoured to the hilt, the Heed boasted 280 turbolasers, 280 light cannon batteries, 140 concussion missile tubes and 1 high intensity Janos beam emitter. It was that final weapon which attracted the attention of the Empire. After the standoff the Empire had at Janos, they knew the destructive power of Janos Jewel - and that such a weapon could not be allowed to be in a civilian starship. Luckily for all involved, the massive ship disappeared. Only a precious few knew of its location, one of which being the late Dessio D’Staan. However, Glann Cipple later discovered the Heed within the Foron Dustcloud after he decoded the disk given to him by his daughter Armella D’Staan. Offering the ship to Admiral Korne Lans, the ship was stricken by the mercenary Luschia Arkensaw after she stole the powerful Janos Crystal from its star drive whilst in geo-stationary orbit over Amagad City. Her orbit decayed and the ship crashed into the ocean ten kilometres out from the city, levelling it totally. Amagads orbit was altered slightly, turning the world into a frozen wasteland.
