The Meltrandi Laplamiz-Class Mobile Fortress was seen only briefly near the end of Space War I. This immense spacecraft, comparable in size to the Zentradi Gorg Bodolzaa Class Mobile Fortress, served as the mothership for the Laplamiz Meltrandi fleet. As tall as the ship is wide, the Laplamiz mobile fortress appears in the familiar magenta colors of the Meltrandi fleets but the hull appears almost rock-like in design, resembling a multi-tiered mountain range. The Laplamiz class is many times the size of the large Meltran Flagships and within it's hull the mothership can berth numerous other craft for fueling and supply. During the final decisive conflict of Space War I, the Laplamiz class led the Meltrandi fleet in battle against the Zentradi Gorg Bodolzaa fleet. Though both fleets were evenly matched, Gorg Bodolzaa desired victory so greatly, he was willing to destroy many of his own Zentradi ships to defeat the Meltrandi. The Zentradi Mobile Fortress fired it's massive main beam gun upon the Laplamiz Mobile Fortress, destroying the Meltrandi mothership, a portion of the Meltrandi fleet and thousands of the Zentradi's own ships. Ultimately, the strategy would prove the downfall of Gorg Bodolzaa.
