So as per the discussions with Jace I have had of late, I would like to request the following ships to add to my Neimoidian Home Defense Fleet. The current capital ships would be disposed of, the MC80 going to be stripped of its weapons and propulsion and used as a prison/hospital hulk. The Core ship would be cannibalised, some of its components being taken and used in the creation of my new ship, the larger parter bit though being landed on Neimoidia, stripped of its drives and buried upto its equator in earth, forming Kruus own new palace to be known as 'Kruus Hive'.
So I would like to upgrade the corvette capability of the fleet also, bringing the number of Assassin-class vessels to 5, and upgrading their command and control system somewhat so that they only require 3 organic crew each, allowing the crew members to live in relative luxury while AI and droids did most tasks.
I would also like the following vessel, as a showcase of technology for the New Republic and also as the flagship of the Neimoidian fleet.

Crew
• Crew (1)
Instead of a traditional command and control system, one individual (who has been bred from youth for loyalty and tactical skill) is integrated directly into the central command computer, allowing him to feel and control the ship with the aid of an AI mind, operating akin to a brain, with the AI operating the hemisphere related to logic, decision making etc, with the operator acting as the innovator, tactician and approver of all actions. Removing him from the ship would result in severe mental shock, possibly even death.
• Droids (50,000 assorted droids and AI systems)
Act in every respect as a crew would, from providing cleaning duties to maintainence and active repair. Infact if the vessel is not doing anything else it will largely put its processing capacity towards researching its own improvement. Thanks to fitted smelters and repair shops will repair and upgrade itself, droids sawing off broken components and resmelting them, also collecting passing comets and space debris to be used as raw materials.
