DESCRIPTION​

The CR20 troop carrier is a heavy dropship which was manufactured by the Corellian Engineering Corporation and saw service during the Clone Wars. Designed primarily to compliment the massive Acclamator-class troopship, the CR20 was intended for situations where a giant cruiser would be overkill, but where more troop strength that what could be carried aboard a shuttle or repulsorlift gunship was called for. As such, the CR20 did not see as much combat as its various sibling designs, but was nevertheless built in respectable numbers and did well in its intended role.

The CR20 is 60 meters long, sub-corvette scale, but is fitted with a pair of light turbolaser turrets for defense, fairly heavy armament for its size. The ship has a crew of 6, plus up to 40 passengers and all their gear, including dedicated launch racks for up to 18 speeder bikes or swoops. In addition, the ship can carry up to 20 tons of cargo.

CR20s are not commonly seen in the present day, but can still be found in service with militaries on certain worlds. They are also popular with mercenaries and pirates.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. Armed dropships such as the CR20 are not considered full capital ships, but they do mount heavy weapons and therefore require extensive licensing.

INTENT​

To bring a ship from canon into our site's fanon.

RESTRICTIONS​

CR20 troop carriers are not strictly capital ships, but they do have heavy weapons and therefore cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. These vessels may be used as faction assets, or can be operated jointly by at least 2 player characters who work together regularly.
