| − | In early 2150's a new battleship class was ordered by leadership of the ''Deneroth'' Empire. The configuration was partially inspired by older Earth's type of battleship, but the planned ship was much more up-to-date. Latest flight systems and weapons anyway couldn't outbalance some of the disadvantages given by ordered specifications. The new ship had to be able of quick production in large numbers. After four years of work the prototype - ''DEWS Madena'' was completed and commisioned in 2156. Since then many more ships of the class followed, so now about 50 ships are expected to be in service and probably 6 more in construction.

Today the Madena class fatures the core of Deneroth Empire fleet. A group of those ships can become a very dangerous opponent. That's why Madenas usually work in small groups. However, they are also sent one by one on corsair missions deep into the Coalition space. | Today the Madena class fatures the core of Deneroth Empire fleet.

| − | Shields are known to be powered by the central energy generator in central part of the ship, and held together by series of emitters and energetic rails along the entire hull. The main disadvantage of this configuration appears, when the main generator fails, so the hull is not protected from enemy fire anymore. | + | Shields are known to be powered by the central energy generator in central part of the ship, and held together by series of emitters and energetic rails along the entire hull.
