First thing I thought as well. Somehow I read "stolen airships" in there, too.

IMO
We've seen the kind of tech that Praetoria possesses sends through portals... so I'm doubting if its Loyalist forces.
The fact that this thing even exists implies that its been skulking around for awhile (acquisition, construction and finished phases).
I'm doubting that something of this magnitude would be floating around unchecked in Praetoria (if it were Resistance forces) unless it came from outside 'city limits'.
This is 'dirty tech', stolen materials and unconventional methodology; who fits the bill?
Interesting.
It reminds me of The Raft from Snow Crash.
I hope it's not used just in a TF/Trial.
There's, like, 15 of them, and a buncha robots. And about half of them have, like, a whole two lines of characterization. I mean, sure, Praetoria's pretty cool, but I'll admit that they're already starting to feel a tad monotonous.

But I have faith in the Devs that whatever this turns out to be it'll lack any of the more extreme Costnerian influences.

Tin wallllls.... RUSTED!
Love raft, baby, love raft.
Love raft, baby, love raft.
Love, baby, that's where it's aft.

Lambda was used as a shield pattern by the Spartan Army. |
I couldn't remember what book that raft was from, but that raft was the first thing I thought about upon seeing those images.
When Lambda was announced as the name of the next trial I noticed a defintion on Wiki that sounded cool At first I didn't think that defination of Lambda had anything to do with the trial but now that I see all those shield ships I think it does. |
Those ships in the left look like Aegis cruisers, which are definitely not Praetorian in design.

Everyone should patch their Beta server installations now.
Don't wait till the last minute.
Well, we'll see tomorrow since the Lambda trial is going to be open on the Beta Server.

Pretty cool, can't wait til you show off some of the interior... and it better be a Red-Side city...

I, for one, am hoping for Freakshow Pirates.
