The ACC Shadehammer was purchased following action during the Dark Crusade by Consul Marick Arconae in order to complement and replenish the fleet. It was purchased to serve as a mobile forward operating base and a troop deployment vessel, and assigned to the Arcona Expeditionary Force.

Vessel Info

The 752-meter-long Acclamator I-class assault transport carried thousands of Republic clonetroopers into battle. The Acclamator I favored a wedge or dagger shaped design, like the Republic warships during the Mandalorian Wars, due to its effectiveness—it allowed concentration of firepower while minimizing target profile. This basic design was used in a number of larger craft predating it and would define Imperial ships for decades to come.

Acclamator-class assault ships loading troops and taking off.

These ships were armed with 4 heavy torpedo launch tubes; 24 point-defense laser cannons, rated at 6 megatons per shot; and 12 quad turbolaser turrets, each rated at a maximum of 200 gigatons per shot. They were also armed with concussion missiles.

Groups of these ships could perform a "Base Delta Zero", an orbital bombardment that would exterminate all life on the planet. In addition to ground landings, Acclamator-class ships were capable of water landings, as displayed at the Battle of Mon Calamari. The sensor and communications suites were located at the front of the ship's command tower.

The hull armor of Acclamator-class vessels was impregnated with ultra-dispersive neutronium that withstood and spread massive energy blasts. Fusion rockets fired by enemy forces barely made a scratch on the hull as a result.

Acclamator I-class ships also carried support equipment and vehicles, such as the AT-TE and SPHA walkers, used to provide clone troopers with heavy battlefield support.

Each Acclamator I-class ship held 320 speeder bikes, used by clone troopers for fast battlefield reconnaissance and patrol duties. Eighty LAAT gunships were carried to insert personnel, vehicles, and cargo into battle zones in addition to providing close air support.

Gunships were suspended along an overhead circulating rail in the upper hangar for maintenance procedures during travels. A lower, smaller hangar area was used to embark and disembark ground troops and material when landed. The two levels were connected with elevator platforms. Most of the passenger and barrack decks were located on the upper levels of an Acclamator-class ship.

The Acclamator-class's main reactor was located in the middle of the vessel, inside the main superstructure, and was preceded at the frontal half of the ship by multiple fuel tanks. The tanks compressed hypermatter to enormous density for storage. The tanks were connected to the main reactor via pipe assemblies. Secondary reactors were located towards the bow of the vessel.

The ship's main thrusters were fitted with eight electromagnetic rudders that deflected the exhaust particle streams and gave boost when turning the ship. The secondary thrusters did not provide as much power, but were useful for maneuvering due to being placed further away from the ship's main axis.

The massive fin at the stern of the Acclamator-class contained both the anti-gravity generator and the ship's hyperdrive generator. When landed, the repulsorlift carried much of the ship's weight, but the landing legs maintained a stable contact with the ground.

History

Purchased following the Dark Crusade, the ACC Shadehammer was added to the Arcona Expeditionary Force. It saw its first action during Arcona's participation in the Fading Light vendetta and the invasions of Bosthirda, Begeren, and Nicht Ka.

Commander

Troutrooper was given command of the Shadehammer via his elevation to Shadeborn. The Arcona Navy Corps appointed Christien Hoff as executive officer, and gave him day-to-day command of the vessel.
