UEM Florence

The following information has not been confirmed by Volition and is therefore not canon for the FreeSpace universe.

Description:

The UEM Florence

Blue Planet: War in Heaven Tech Description

This cruiser-sized medical vessel houses state-of-the-art medical facilities capable of treating thousands of patients on the field. While the vessel is moderately armored using standard UEF modular armor plates, it only has minimal defensive weaponry. As such, the Florence should receive priority fighter cover in case enemy contact is expected. GTVA forces do not normally target the Florence class, but if the vessel travels with a military escort, it is often presumed to be a wartime target.

Name Origin

At a passing glance, the Florence can be mistaken for being the EAC Eclipse from Inferno Release 1. It is in fact based on the GTC Morana from c914's Lost Fleet ship pack. Changes included a new bridge in common with other UEF ships, a different turret layout and new textures.
