Summary
The Barney-Type Battleships were powerful warships introduced in 3035 AF and used by thedude's forces. As some of the largest and most powerful ships serving thedude's campaign of Unverse domination, many were stationed across the multiverse and commonly supported beachheads, guarding planets such as Militiregnum, Macabross, and Mavijo.
History
Design and Development
The Barney-Type Battleships were designed in the likeness of Lord Barney, integrating his wide body and gaping smile into an imposing capital ship presence. The prototype BSS Barney was originally painted green and purple like its namesake.

Construction of the Barney-Types took place on Fridia following the Matriarch's alliance with thedude. (Ships of the Line) Weapons systems such as Butterfly Torpedo launchers and the Superlaser were produced on Fridia, while special shielding compatible with the Unverse Drive and capable of withstanding transdimensional maneuvers were sourced from the Rogue presence on Jirdia, to be equipped on Fridia.
Invasion of the Star Trek Dimension
See main article: The Invasion of the Star Trek Dimension
As the most powerful of thedude's various ships at its launch in 3035 AF, the prototype BSS Barney was sent to the Star Trek Dimension to reinforce his and his allies' forces spread across the Milky Way and rally them in preparation for the all-out invasion. Between 3035 and 3037, the Barney returned to Fridia for a major refit and serious repainting before being stationed at Mavijo, where it was ultimately destroyed after battle with Star Fleet. (Star Trek Talmidon: The Movie)
Despite the prototype's loss, additional ships of the type were ordered and constructed in short time for transdimensional operations, such as stationing the BSS Tyrant at Macabross (Talmid Show S3 E4).
Technical Data
Propulsion
Two powerful hyperdrive engines could propel ships of the type to faster-than-light speeds beyond Warp 9.99999........
Weapons Systems
The Barney-Types were armed with multiple torpedo launchers and a single devastating superlaser that can destroy target ships in one hit. The superlaser is so critical a function that the Barney-Type's gaping "jaw" is normally "closed" to protect it, and opens for battle.
