Guardian-class Light Cruiser

The Guardian-class was one of the three main vessels used by Imperial Customs, along with Imperial Customs Corvette built by Rendili StarDrive.

They were also used as patrol vessels, where their fast hyperdrive was an asset. In fleet engagements they were used in a picket role, although they were rarely used in such roles.


You can read the Wookiepedia entry here.

Role: Customs Corvette, Patrol Vessel, Fleet Picket Vessel

I am currently the default model for testing purposes. If you have a model I can use let me know, this ship needs its own model.

IPV-1 System Patrol Craft

Post Essential Guide to Warfare, you cannot talk about the Imperial Navy without talking about the IPV-1 System Patrol Craft.

The IPV is the most common vessel in the Imperial Navy, with up to 24 stationed on each system. It was commonly used by Imperial Customs.

The main issue with this vessel is that it is not supposed to have a hyperdrive. To get around this I plan on implementing 2 things:
  1. Giving the vessel an extremely slow hyperdrive.
  2. Stationing the IPV at Cardan-class stations and XQ1 Imperial Customs stations.
You can read the Wookiepedia summary of the ship here.

Technical Specifications

Here are the relevant stats I am using:

Main Battery: 4 medium turbolasers
Secondary Weapons: 1 concussion missile launcher
Anti-Fighter Weapons: None

I am currently just using the default model for now.

Have a model I can use for this? Let me know.
