Sovetskii Soyuz-class Clan Command Cruiser
For the Clan's Flagship, I decided to really pile on the upgrades. First of all, the engines were increased in power to allow for a thrust of 3/5 instead of the old 2/3 that the original SLDF design featured. Next armor was increased to 1,324 tons of ferro-carbide, giving Serket protection of 210 on the nose and sides, as well as 190 astern. An HPG was added, along with a Large Naval Comm-Scanner Suite. The design also includes a 1,500-ton displacement Clan Headquarters with dedicated quarters for a staff of 150 (50 1st-class and 100 2nd-class). This also allows the vessel to act as a mobile HQ for the Clan as a whole even when the Khan deploys into combat (either as an observer or a participant).
Unlike most Clan Sovetskii Soyuz class WarShips, the Scorpions did not add a 5th docking collar. Just the four that most SLDF Cruiser classes mounted, along with 20 fighters, 4 small craft, and 50 Elemental Marines. Fuel tankage was increased to allow for a cruising range of 360 days (at 1-G of acceleration) and ample supplies of provisions, water, and life support are provided to sustain up to 960 personnel for the same period of time.
41,500 tons of spare parts (5%) are allocated, along with 41,657 tons of general cargo space.
Weaponry is greatly increased over the original SLDF design. Each arc mounts 3 ER Large Lasers, 2 ER PPCs, 2 Gauss Rifles, 1 UAC-20, 4 ER Medium Lasers, and 5 ER Small Lasers as secondary weapon systems.
The nose and fore-quarters feature the same layout of capital weapons. Each features two mixed laser bays of four guns each (2 NL-45 and 2 NL-55), supported at closer range by a twin NAC-20 bay (60 twin bursts).
The broadsides and stern-quarters are similar, but reverse the proportions. One mixed four-gun laser bay (2 NL-45 and 2 NL-55) and two two-gun NAC-20 bays (each with 60 twin bursts).
The stern arc is the weakest, eliminating the Naval Autocannon. Instead, it carries two four-gun mixed naval laser bays (2 NL-45 and 2 NL-55 each) as the only capital weapons.
2,968 double-strength heat sinks compensate for all heat produced by these guns and allow Serket to remain in constant action.
And the price tag is quite reasonable for what you get: under 8.3 million C-Bills.

Although the Ravens should be able to fit additional ships of this design with Lithium-Fusion Batteries, no other Clan has shown interest in the Scorpion concept of such a Command Cruiser. The Ravens do, however, have the schematics and plans to produce a 5 docking collar, LFB design that eliminates the Large NCSS and Clan Command HQ, but have yet to produce one. Cargo drops to 34,357 tons and the price climbs steeply to 19.4 billion C-Bills!
