Description: Rendili Stardrive's latest developed starship. A large scale cruiser design meant for many roles. Mostly produced as a military vessel, the Spearhead class heavy cruiser is armed to the teeth with a flurry of turbolasers. With a heavy emphasis on a free range of use and movement, the Spearhead Cruiser also fills the role of an Expedition type vessel. As such it is fielded with a third hyperdrive unit, though it is severely lacking in speed on its backup units. Still, the goal of the decision being that the ship will never find itself stranded. It contains enough supplies to last a full crew and passengers for a long time, as well as enable them to construct facilities that can be self sufficient as the ship continues its journey and leaves research and combat teams behind. Its heavy shielding, use of Rendili's latest starfighters in its hanger bays, and array of weaponry are also meant for its expedition role to keep it safe from whatever hazardous environments, unknown threats, or pirates and hostile entities may take distaste in its travels and find it pleasing prey.

Alright this doesn't look broken to me. I don't like the three hyperdrive thing but at the same time... does it really matter? So yeah approved pending secondary.
