How 'bout one of these?
NHJ Victorious and her sisters

Section D: Multiple Victorious Class Vessels
At 2050 hours on 5/31/2384, the GTC Horan entered a 'gravitational discrepeancy' (See Appendix G) around a crater on the second moon of Formatia (Cassiopiea 528) III, aka Quator. The crater turned out to be a large cave entrance, and the gravitational discrepancy allowed the GTC Horan to enter said crater.
Upon entering the crater, the crew of the GTC Horan discovered the exisitance of nineteen (19) vessels similar in design and shape to the Neo-Hammer of Light Juggernaut Victorious. As such, each was given the designation Victorious Class Vessel (VCV) and a number as per postion within the cave. The nineteen VCV's can be broken down into two groups: the Absoultion and the ones of unknown orgin. I will attempt to describe the unknown VCV's first as they are the most dissimilar from the current stats related to the NHJ Victorious.
The Eighteen (18) VCV's (#1-18) classified as 'unknown' are all nearly identical. Each is approximently twenty (20) kilometers in length, five (5) kilometers in width and four (4) kilometers in hight. Each is made up of an unknown material which initial analysis indicates is very similar to that of the Knossos device (See Appendix H). Data gathered from within VCV #12 reveals that writing similar to text discovered at Ancient dig sites (See Apeendix I). It is my preliminary conclusion that these vessels, as well as perhaps the NHJ Victorious and the Absolution were constructed by the Ancients at some time in the past. Further analysis will be necessary to determine their true orgins.
The 'unknown' VCV's all show signs of extreme age. All but one of the reactors, the one aboard VCV #12, have ceased to function. Air on board VCV #12 was reported to be quite stale and there is no sign of artificial gravity on any of the ships. Along with the discovery of the Ancient texts came the discovery of one (1) Vasudan corpse and one (1) Terran corpse. We have so far concluded that the Vasudan was not part of the Neo-Hammer of Light. Both corpses were wearing nearly identical uniforms and were found within twenty (20) meters of each other (See Appendix J). Exactly how both got aboard VCV #12 is unknown and is need of further investigation.
VCV #19 aka the Absolution, is by far more important than the other eighteen (18) ships. According to Ma'thon Eng'a, Personal Messanger to the Eishtmo, the Absolution was the first VCV to be revealed by the Eishtmo to his followers. According to Ma'thon, the Absolution was declared a project orginally developed by the Parlamentary Vasudan Empire to fight the Galactic Terran Alliance. The ship, as well as it's future sister NHJ Victorious, were abandoned in favor of the Typhon class vessels. Though the explanation sounds ludicrous, members of the Neo-Hammer of light religiously followed the Eishtmo, and accepted the explanation.
An eight (8) Earth year project was begun shortly thereafter to completely rebuild the Absolution. Many technologies later incorperated into the NHJ Victorious were tested aboard the Absolution. As such, it can be hypothizied that the Absolution was the prototype of the NHJ Victorious. When construction of the Absolution was completed, the Eishtmo rolled out the NHJ Victorious which was promptly given the same makeover. However, the Absolution, with it's massive construction capacity, made the work faster. In less than four (4) Earth years, the NHJ Victorious was completed. According to information gathered, the NHJ Victorious was completed shortly before the invasion of Galactic Terran-Vasudan Alliance systems by the Neo-Hammer of Light.
The Absolution, it has no ship class tag as per Neo-Hammer of Light tradition, is very similar to the NHJ Victorious. It uses the same "gas hull" system as the NHJ Victorious (See Victorious Study). All of the major beam placements are identical, including the main cannon postioned at the front of the ship.
The differances between the two ships is quite pronounced, however. The Absolution lacks the so-called "beam collar" of the NHJ Victorious. Also, the shielding system is quite different. Instead of the single, solid shell shield used by the NHJ Victorious, the Absolution uses a "cell" type system (See Appendix J). This shield system is more approperate for small scale attacks as well as area effect weapons, not for large scale beam assults as the NHJ Victorious' shield system was. Also, the Absolution generates far less power than its sister. Current calculations indicate that the Absolution could not destroy a planet (See Appendix K).The gas hull system was a double hull filled with a strange gasious chemical that the Shivans used to increase the power, fire length, and decrease charge up time for their own beams. Used in the gas hull system, beam energy is literally ate up, stopping even the strongest of GTVA beams, the Ion beam, before it even reaches the interior hull. On top of that is powerful ship wide shield system that can absorb nearly 30 concentrated Ion beam shots before failing.
The main gun is a multi-refractive beam system, where nearly twenty weaker beams are combined and amplified to produce the ultimate anti-capitol ship beam. Even the most powerful Shivan juggernaut, the Mastama, couldn't survive a direct hit. Secondary beams are powerful enough to blows holes in juggernauts on their own, while dozens of smaller weapons, from advanced slicers to laser turrets of increadible power (and Ancient origin) only add to the destructive abilites.
The Victorious could carry nearly 2000 fighters and bombers, as well as being able to carry and repair three cruiser class vessels within its fighter bay. The Absolution carried nearly twice the fighters and bombers, and could hold two corvette class vessels, or the bulk of one destroyer. Fully automated repair drones can rebuild, and upgrade, cruiser class vessels in less than a week.
Despite the size of the ship, only 20,000 people are needed to operate, and take into combat, a VCV. The bridge area is nearly the size of a crusier and has the communcation and tracking systems to conduct an entire war. When properly configured, the ship can also destroy a planet, at the cost of destroying itself.
Now get to it. I want a working model in two weeks

I know there is a method, but all I see is madness.
