Explanations:

Flechette Launchers

The standard galaxy wide anti-missile defense system, Flechette launchers work by tubes that discharge a large number of reflective, and hard particles into the paths on oncoming missiles. This reduces the effectiveness of a long range missile strike to 25%, and the effectivness of a short range strike to 50%.

Weapons Blisters

The weapons blisters onboard the Ishori war cruisers consist of a weapons blister protecting a number of weapons. Each blister contains 1 Medium Turbolaser Battery, and 2 Medium Quad Turbolaser cannons. There are ten blisters total on an Ishori cruiser, five to the portside, and five to the starboard side. All the weapons on a blister can fire either up, down, left, or right in full one hundred and eighty degree arcs.

History:

The Ishori War cruiser is produced by the Ishori, from their native homeworld of Isht. These cruisers have seen much service against their constant rivals, the Diamalans, but they have seen combat against the Imperial fleet once. At Bothawui, three or more such cruisers were the first combat ships to engage a trio of Imperial Mark II Star Destroyers. These ships were able to sustain heavy damage, and give back some, too.
