DESCRIPTION
While the Star Destroyers in House Mecetti's navy gain the lion share of attention, the corvettes do the lion share of the work. House Mecetti has had the license to produce these ships for centuries at their Obulette shipyard, and they have made good use of that over the years. Unlike the star destroyers, corvettes are routinely used in wartime or defense operations, are sometimes destroyed, and are periodically replaced.

While the design of the Raider class corvette is now quite dated, it has not lost much in the way of utility over the years. Fast, tough, and capable in a role that requires all three, there is very little cause for the House to upgrade the true backbone of its fleet.

Hello,

Thank you for this review.

I have attempted to make the appropriate adjustments.

I'm a bit insecure on the hangar details. This ship only had capacity for a couple of fighters and a shuttle. I don't want to over-represent it.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers!

The hanger details are set in stone, you cannot use fractions. This is the only warning, use the template right.

• Hangar Allocations:
  • Starfighters: 2 starfighters (1/6 squadron)
  • Support Craft: Single shuttle (1/4 squadron)

This is not acceptable, please do it right.

Hello,

I apologize for any misunderstanding. I have desired to accurately reflect the limited capacity of the vessel.

I have changed the Hangar Allocations to whole numbers, and listed the limited capacity as a weakness instead.

I hope this is acceptable.

Cheers.

Five ratings to high, please reduce.
