Introduction
The Majestic-Class Heavy Cruiser Relentless is a heavy cruiser in service to the Scholae Palatinae Fleet, currently assigned to the Starstealer Task Force. In practice, the warship is one of the most heavily deployed vessels in the Clan Fleet.
Vessel Info
The Majestic-Class is a recent New Republic design which was meant to go up against a Star Destroyer at range and win. Using advanced targeting systems, this class can stand-off at range and hit their targets, forcing them to come in close to land the equivalent amount of firepower back. Excellent speed and maneuverability combined with heavy shielding and armor allow the ship to more than fulfill their intended role.
History
Service to the Palpatines
The ship is currently commanded by Captain Salina Duval, previous navigational officer of the Strike-class Cruiser Dark Predator. Although a bit reckless in the eyes of Clan leadership, clearly she has had a large streak of luck, since she has handled her ship well in all sorts of training simulations. Given her maverick personality type, she has been given the task of being the vanguard of fleet operations, and is the first to be deployed wherever the Clan needs the presence of a warship but does not need the overwhelming firepower of a Star Destroyer. Thus, her crew is rapidly gaining valuable operational experience, although somewhat diluted due to the constant crew member rotations. The crew has officially been rated as Regular.
Deployment
During periods of large-scale combat, the Relentless serves as a mobile force, usually tasked with flank security or flanking maneuvers. At other times, the ship is usually deployed as an escort for valuable cargo runs or as a representative of the Clan in various capacities. However, its' main mission is to be the vanguard for the fleet, jumping in first, assessing the situation, and reporting back if necessary. In such a role it is usually accompanied by at least a squadrons' worth of Clan hyperspace capable starfighters to provide local security.
Assigned to First Flotilla, along with the NSD Excidium II, the GSP Dauntless and the GSP Dagger.
