The Loki

The Loki is an exceptionally battle-prominent Gorgon-Class Battlecruiser developed by the Terran Dominion to combat The Odin if necessary. It is currently under use by Subjugation.

Under the Terran Dominion
Much of the development of The Loki is fairly unknown. it was intially a Super-Class Battlecruiser on rival with Behemoth Class Battlecruisers already used by The Dominion under Arcturus Mengsk. The purpose is fairly unknown, but it is believed that The Loki was primarily developed in the event of The Odin being stolen. It was destroyed at the Valhalla installation labs when Jim Raynor, alongside his military force and with his friend Tychus Findlay, stole The Odin from The Terran Dominion. It was destroyed to assure that the attack on Korhal would succeed in order to broadcast Arcturus Mengsk's war crimes across The Dominion.

Subjugate The Odin
Eventually, Subjugation would become assured that The Odin was a potent threat to Subjugation Warship's, and thus Monolith would contact Emperor Valerian mengsk about the revival of The Loki as a defensive weapon against The Odin. The Terran Dominion set about quickly revitalizing the project, and repaired it in no small part to a huge budget from Monolith, who would later reward The Dominion with four billion credits. It would be redesigned to a Gorgon-Class Battlecruiser, equipped with the latest technology The Dominion had.

Firepower
The Loki is much weaker than a Subjugation Warship in terms of offensive firepower, but it is specifically designed to counter the extreme firepower of The Odin, making it a functional tank against Subjugation's greatest threat. The Battlecruiser contains a variety of anti-ballistic missile systems, the standard Yamato Cannon attached to most Terran Battlecruisers, and an advanced form of the ATS and ATA Laser Battery system.

In practice, The Loki is fundamentally invincible to The Odin. It can shrug off and redirect its firepower, avoid nearly any attempts The Odin makes to take it down, and keep The Odin from landing shots on its intended targets. As a weapon, it is possibly the most powerful spaceship Subjugation has in small part to the fact that standard Subjugation Warships are highly vulnerable to the explosive shells of The Odin, something The Loki is not.
