Defense Management Suite: Equipped with a powerful short range sensor jammer, a hail comm jammer and EM Emitter the [SIZE=10pt]Veraline[/SIZE] sets out to make use of her speed and maneuverability rating in order to help keep enemies confused. This in conjunction with a modified redundant ion shield to handle ion and emp weapons, and tekonite ablative hull helps the Veraline achieve her blockade running goals.
[SIZE=10pt]Strengths[/SIZE][SIZE=10pt]:[/SIZE]
Speed: A key part to the Verlaine is her speed being able to move faster than most [SIZE=10pt]Corvettes[/SIZE] in her size class.
Kinetic Damage: Second to her speed is the [SIZE=10pt]ability[/SIZE] to withstand a good chunk of kinetic impact/damage sent her way. Tekonite ablative hull while a one trick pony helps with the ‘blockade’ portion of the blockade runner.
Weapon Spacing: Due to her low armament there are gaps in the ship’s weapon spacing leaving room for enemy fighters to take advantage.
Wolfpack: Meant to work within a group, the Verlaine is not nearly as capable to take on enemy vessels on her own. One on one is pushing it [SIZE=10pt]let[/SIZE] alone three on one, or more.
Developed by Frielle Kinniak with the engineers with Three Moons Development and Supplies. The Veraline-type Blockade Runner was developed in responses to blockades in recent events, such as the Blockade of Commenor and L-49. She's designed to power through blockades and create a space for her allies. Not meant to be out on her own, the Verlaine should often be with a group of starships or at the least escorted by starfighters. Low armament coupled with weapons spacing gives the Verlaine a disadvantage, especially when taking on vessels alone. The Verlaine's advantage is her speed, and the ability to take on kinetic damage. High speed with a moderate maneuverability rating lets the blockade runner do just that.
