Olmedreca
unique_objectSpecific Megaship ~4km long, nuked hole causing curve to Edgewall, powerful bow lasers, multi-level decks with towers, promenades, pools; abandoned post-evacuation.
The Olmedreca, a colossal Megaship stretching approximately 4 kilometers in length, stands as a marvel of Idiran engineering in 'Consider Phlebas,' boasting powerful bow lasers, multi-level decks adorned with towers, promenades, and pools. Rendered a derelict husk after its evacuation, it suffers catastrophic damage from a nuked hole that warps its structure toward the Edgewall, marking its tragic fall from grandeur amid the Idiran-Culture war. Absent from subsequent books in the series, the Olmedreca remains a poignant, one-off symbol of the conflict's devastating toll on vast technological wonders.
