Description/Overview:
   The Zenta class heavy cruiser was a variant of the Planetary Alliance Alamo class of heavy cruisers that began construction at the end of the Outer Sphere War of the late 2180s. Like nearly all of the mecha and craft of the Tartarian Technocracy, the Zenta was a modification of a Planetary Alliance design that the LaGrange colonies stole the plans of and gave to the Council on Stellar Relations. The usurpation of the various governments of the Planetary Alliance had began in the 2160s when LaGrange merged with the Earth Federal Republic. The dependance on the Earth Federal Republic and other Planetary Alliance stellar nations for their ship and mecha designs changed with the Outer Sphere War and the complete independance of the Council of Stellar Relations as their first generation of Project Eden Cosmonoids reached maturity. The Zenta represented that transition from the LaGrange type fleet to the Tartarian Technocracy fleet.
