DESCRIPTION​

Designed to be a successor to Old Republic's medium sized cruisers by the Republic Remnant after the end of the Hundred Year Darkness as a general improvement of the rag-tag star ships used by the Republic used before the war. Designed to be a general purpose vessel to lock down several roles at once, such as a military freighter, command ship, or Capitol Ship as a means to streamline ship production. However its design would remain in the archives of Rendili Hyper works for generations. Until its design was taken and given a redone refit to fit commercial use. Now christened the "Hammerhead Class Star Cruiser" its venerable design will now stand the test of time.

Its small size and relatively quick speed allows the Frigate to keep pace with smaller vessels in a planetary convoy. While being fast enough to dogfight larger hostile craft.

LEGALITY​

Sith Aligned Space: Scan for illegal goods
Alliance Aligned Space: Legal for Civilians, Legal for Jedi and Alliance Soldiers
Hutt Aligned or Neutral Space: Legal

INTENT​

It is supposed to be a main ship-of-the-line for the Alliance. To replace any other Capitol Ship inside of the Alliance Arsenal and to enforce maritime law in Alliance Space. Its firepower as well as speed can easily make it a great guerrilla fighter ship awell as a mobile headquarters for mercenaries. Its modular frame can make it an extremely versatile general-use vessel to combat menial things such as garrisons or troop transport, or even a bulk freighter. It is ultimately left up to the Captain on whether or not to modify his or her vessel to fit a specific specialization.

ADVANCED TECH​

YES

To acquire:
- Locate a shipyard for large ships
- Enter a auction for its sale
-One Dice roll to take it. +60
If failed:
-Find the new ship's owner.
-Kill or otherwise render the owner receptive to agressive negotiations
-Steal the Ship + Eliminate interior crew.
-Profit

love the addition of the Hammerhead corvette. Tho I must mention faction leaders can only post faction tech. So I think if you either make it open market or send it on to the GA faction leader you can work with it like that.

Will do.

You should know first off that I'm automatically leery of adding anything that is explicitly from Canon or even Legends. The latter because in the past, whenever we've come up with a fanon version of something from Legends, Disney seems to add it to Canon and make whatever we made obsolete at worst or confusing at best. That said, a version of the Hammerhead has already appeared in Rebels and Rogue One, so anything we come up with here regarding the type is even more likely to conflict with the Canon.

There are other problems with this design, however.

The crew is too small, the passenger capacity is too large, and the cargo capacity is far too large. The Asperse-class cruiser, the closest equivalent we have on the site, has a crew of 50, and can carry 200 passengers and 500 tons of cargo. Your version of the Hammerhead has a crew of only 20, can carry twice as many passengers and 8 times the cargo. 4,000 tons, by the way, is more capacity than any bulk freighter we've yet approved, and by orders of magnitude.

And then, as mentioned, there's the fact that it's apparently faction tech. As explained to you earlier in the thread, only faction leaders are allowed to submit faction tech. Either this will have to be open market, or I'll have to archive it and you can see if the Alliance FL wants it so they can post it themselves.

And finally, please do not center the text in the Description, Legality, Intent and Advanced Tech sections. Only the headers need to be centered.

I have finally gotten to editing it :V

@Xanthum the Mighty

So, you apparently did the opposite of what I said to do with the text centering. Formatting needs some work.

Also, please remove the Republic from its affiliation; the Republic is still technically an Imperial client state at this time, and you would need to be a faction leader to submit faction-specific tech anyway. Having it be "open market" is fine, though.

Got to it finally.

 

[AutoFox]

Once again: the section headers are centered, the body of the text is not. Also, there are still some pretty glaring formatting issues. I've just gone in and fixed them for you, but don't expect me to do it again.

Approved. Grudgingly.

 

[Darasuum]

Is this a cruiser or a frigate. I see it referenced as both in here.

 

[Xanthum the Mighty]

Cruiser in the name, Frigate in the class
