[RCN] Bishop Class Large Cruiser Mk.1B (Gen3)

(Disclaimer: This ship uses stacking and does not work properly in 2.0. I am working to fix the issue by making a non-stacked version. Sorry for the inconvenience.)

Update 1:
- Changed name to reflect my updated ship classification system

TL;DR vs Mk.1
- moar expensive
- moar dakka
- moar shields
- faster, less maneuverable
- redesigned aft hull and engines

Mk.1B
With command halting production of the new ships until the issues were resolved the design team went back to work delaying production for another 2 years. The issues were resolved when engineers designed entirely new engines which saw the aft of the ship being reworked to accommodate them and giving more deck space for improved point defenses.

The keel of the first Bishop Mk.1B was laid down in 3784C.E. and was completed in 3785C.E. under the name of CB-03, R.C.S. Claymore. After only 11 months of construction the ship rolled into service beside her sister ships.
