Vessel Info

The VT-49 Decimator is most correctly classified as an Assault ship. It is heavily armed and armored, and built to carry light to medium loads into dangerous places. Its form follows its function, and its shape offers a relatively small target with no large fins or wings as seen in some of the less combat-oriented craft of the Empire, such as the Lambda-class shuttle. Armor and deflector shielding is particularly heavy, and the weapons load-out is fearsome and includes turrets capable of engaging any target fast enough to out-maneuver the VT49. As a ship built to out-fight anything it can outrun, and outrun anything it can’t outfight, the Empire uses the Decimator as a multi-role craft and will outfit it to suit the current need.

History

The Legacy and Sentinel came to Taldryan following the Vong Incursion. They serve multiple roles in out fleet. In peaceful times they are utilized by the members of the Taldryan Strategic Operations Council as reconnaissance or armoured transports. During wartime they are used to transport troops to and from the war area and to evacuate the members of the clan in times of emergency. Beyond both of those, a normal role would be serving as long-range reconnaissance vessels on the outskirts of the Taldryan Fleet. The Sentinel is part of Battlegroup Vanguard.
