| Dominus-class dreadnaught Cost: 180 million credits Length: 1,425 meters Engine Units: 12 MGLT: 62 MGLT Hyperdrive: Shielding: Equipped Armament: - 30x Medium double turbolaser turrets
- 24x Triple point defense laser cannons
- 12x Heavy assault concussion missile launchers (120 missiles total)
- 8x Tractor beam projectors
Compliment: - 120 (10 squadrons)x assorted starfighters
- 8x Mantis-class troop transport
Crew: 4,127 Passengers: 20,000 Cargo Capacity: 30,000 tons Consumables: 3 years
Description: Like the Indomitable command carrier, the Dominus-class dreadnaught is something of a letdown. Designed originally as a direct competitor to Kuat Drive yards' Star Destroyer line, it boasted a smaller size, greater automation, lessened crew requirements, faster hyperdrive and increased fighter and support vessel holding capabilities. While it does shine in these areas, it failed badly primarily in the area of armaments and the smaller points of cargo capacity and ground vehicle transport. Nonetheless, Sluis Van Shipyards decided to push forward with the product, pricing it at nearly half the cost of a Star Destroyer. While not expecting many clients in the Imperial Navy for this vessel, it was hoped that defensive fleets and task forces along the Outer Rim would choose to utilize it as a flag vessel.

Komodo-class battleship Cost: 30 million credits Length: 700 meters Engine Units: 6 MGLT: 10 MGLT Maximum Speed (atmospheric): 1,400 km/h Hyperdrive: - Class 2.0
- Backup Class 13
Shielding: Equipped Armament: - 25x Medium double turbolaser turrets
- 12x Point defense ion cannons
- 10x Heavy concussion missile launchers (80 missiles total)
- 4x Tractor beam projectors
Compliment: - 36 (3 squadrons)x assorted starfighters
- 3x Mantis-class troop transport
Crew: 600 Passengers: 1,200 Cargo Capacity: 3,000 tons Consumables: 6 months
Description: The Komodo-class is indeed a work of art. A challenge to Rendili StarDrive's Dreadnaught cruiser class, this battleship sports heavier weapons, carrying capacity for additional fighters and dropships and far lesser crew requirements than its comparable ship, at the cost of being larger by nearly a hundred meters and lacking the extensive cargo space offered by the Dreadnaught. An additional feature that is hoped will make this ship a favorite is its ability to either drop its load of Mantis troop transports from orbit or utilize it's atmospheric ability to engage targets more directly.

| My only concern on these is the excess of heavy weaponry. If one of my Management counterparts wants to roll in on this and say they're cool, I'll go with it, but would you be opposed to make at least some of the Heavy Turbolasers on here Medium Turbolasers?

| The reason I rolled with heavy turbolasers is largely in part due to the craft they are competing against. We can all agree that a Star Destroyer is a heavy hitter, and the Dreadnought, while older, still packs a rather large punch.

| I agree with Jaron, and ask that you drop the turbolasers down to mediums, since there seems to be an abundance of weaponry on these ships. Everything else is good with me, though. So, pending that small change, my vote is to APPROVE.

| I also noticed, that the Dreadnaught has a top speed of 85 MGLT. Could just be me, but I find something inherently wrong in something that is intended to be a heavy capital ship, being able to run down some fighters. Is this is a misprint?

| I'm also interested in the MGLT issue, and I agree with Orion and Karth about the turbolasers, too. Pending resolution of these I'll vote to APPROVE the request.
