The Alliance Navy

CC-9600 FRIGATE

The CC-9600 is the latest iteration of the CC series of capital ships. It is more compact and requires fewer crew members than the previous CC-7700. While the CC-7700 was primarily a platform for a gravity well projector, the CC-9600 is a pure combat vessel. The firepower and shielding of the CC-9600 are considerable, while allowing enough cargo space to accommodate one regiment of ground troops.

CORELLIAN CORVETTE

A mid-sized capital ship constructed in the Corellian shipyards, the Corvette has had a long history of service. At 150 meters long and carrying a reasonable compliment of shielding and armament, it can function as a cargo transport, or frontline warship. Since this vessel sees a lot of action with the Corellian Pirates and the Alliance, it has been nicknamed the Blockade Runner.

CORELLIAN GUNSHIP

The Corellian gunship was designed to be two things, fast and deadly. Engines fill more than half of its interior structure while the external hull mounts a large number of laser batteries. Quadlaser cannons make it an ideal anti-starfighter platform.

CC-7700 FRIGATE

The CC-7700 is an older sibling to the Corellian gunship. While lightly armed, the CC-7700 is designed primarily as a platform for a gravity well projector. The function of this vessel is to prevent the withdrawal of enemy vessels from a battle zone.

MON CALAMARI CRUISER

The Mon Calamari Cruisers were originally spaceliners which were converted into millitary use. Thiss 1,200-meeter-long cylindrical ship looks more organic then technological, but it is considered to be among the finest vessels traveling space. Built with many redundant systems, the Mon Calamari Cruiser is difficult to repair and service but extremely reliable in combat situations.

LIBERATOR CRUISER

The SoroSuub Liberator's slender hull disguises the fact that it can carry three troop regiments and six fighter squadrons. For a capital ship, the Liberator is dimimutive in size, but still finds room to host a formidable weapons compliment consisting of ion cannons and heavy turbolaser batteries. Utilizing state-of-the-art hull armor, new shielding and drive unit technology, the Liberator is one of the most advanced warships in the galaxy.

DAUNTLESS CRUISER

The Dauntless is the second largest cruiser in the Alliance fleet. Built from the hull of a luxury liner, it carries an excellent sensor package and countermeasuer equipment. Extra shielding and armaments were added to make the Dauntless an effective frontline ship.

BULWARK BATTLECRUISER

The TransGalMeg Industries Bulwark class capital ship is a mobile fortress. It is one of the most battleproof ships employed by the Rebel Alliance. Though plagued by rumors of unreliable electronics and sensors, the Bulwark's extensive arsenal, shielding and carrying capacity make it ideal for large scale operations.

BULK CRUISER

The aging bulk cruiser class of capital ships has existed since the time of the Old Republic. Extremely reliable and rugged, the cruiser has become one of the mainstay ships of the Alliance fleet. Sporting a reasonable amount of firepower and shielding, the cruiser is suited for most any type of operation.

NEBULON-B FRIGATE

The Nebulon-B frigate is 300 meters long and was originally designed for use against starfighters. These vessels have more weaponry than most vessels of thier class and the Nebulon-B's capacity to carry two squadrons of fighters make them superior vessels.

ASSAULT FRIGATE

Assault frigates are one of the Rebel Alliance's main frontline warships. Built using the framework of Old Republic Dreadnaughts, Alliance engineers created a ship with greater speed and maneuverability while still retaining the Dreadnaught's weapon compliment.

ALLIANCE DREADNAUGHT

The Dreadnaught is an ancient heavy cruiser that dates from the time of the Old Republic. The alliance has refitted many of these anchient vessels with automated controls and faster sublight engines. Many of these becam what are known as Rebel assault frigates.

ALLIANCE ESCORT CARRIER

Alliance escort carriers serve a similar purpose to their Imperial counterparts. Escort carriers are capable of carrying and refueling wings of starfighters and dramatically increase the starfighter capacity of the fleet to which they are attached. Alliance carriers have better shielding than the Imperial models, but have relatively weak firepower.

MEDIUM TRANSPORT

These vessels can haul an immense amount of equipment considering that they are only 90 meters long. The medium transport's outer hull is little more than a thick shell; the interior is mainly open space. These transports are useful in transporting medicine, food, fuel, spare parts, weapons, raw materials, and troops.

BULK TRANSPORT

The bulk transport is the life bloob of intergalactic trade and commerce. The extensive cargo capacity of the transport makes it ideal for moving everything from loads of juri juice to Fleet regiments.
