Description
The Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser is a durable Rendili warship that entered service before the Clone Wars and continued through the Republic and Imperial eras. The original design required an unusually large crew, although later automation refits substantially reduced its manpower requirements. Its combination of armor, firepower, embarked troops, and starfighter capacity makes the class suitable for line combat, patrol, convoy protection, and fleet-support operations.
