DESCRIPTION
Forged from desperation and a need to fill gaps in its fledgling military, Grand Admiral Shan Pellian of the Diarchy Navy was tasked by Diarch Reign and Diarch Rellik to create a stop gap ship to supplement the Diarchy while corporate contracts are secured. Limited in available resources and lacking dedicated teams of experienced starship designers, Shan determined the best course forward was to look to the past, and selected a ship from centuries in the past. The Acclamator Class was chosen as the best candidate for the Diarchy's needs, and after the original schematics were modified to suit the needs of the Diarchy, the Decimus Pattern entered limited production.

The primary focus of the Decimus Pattern revolves around the classification of assault ship. With heavy weaponry located in positions to provide excellent forward firing arcs, the Decimus Pattern is capable of engaging enemy vessels of similar or larger size, and holding its own in a battle of attrition with heavy shielding and reinforced armor. It can hold its own in the battleline, and packs of these ships are capable of engaging and eliminating larger enemy capital ships.

The secondary focus of the Decimus Pattern is that of planetary assault craft. Following the event of Bescane, it was determined that the Diarchy needed a more specialized and dedicated ship for planetary invasions. With its heavy shielding and armor, the Decimus Pattern is capable of making an aggressive push towards enemy worlds, weather anti-orbital fire, and landing to deploy ground forces to begin the invasion of enemy worlds.
