Additional Information

A mid-range vessel of the Royal Navy, the Sword of Hapes was designed as a single-duty craft. These 2000-meter ships are deployed to the most sensitive combat zones alone or in pairs, and utilizing their array of extensive shields and weapons systems, these ships are able to take on entire armadas of lesser vessels with ease. But despite its size, its dedicated role generally means the 'Sword' cannot be used effectively as a command craft, since its build focus specifies combat.

The Sword of Hapes, like the smaller Jewel of Hapes, incorporates landing facilities for the Consortium's new droid starfighters, but unlike the Jewel lacks the ability to change her bays into standard fighter landing areas.

The Hapan Government spared no expense in the design and construction of the Sword, long considered a replacement for the ageing Darkstar-Class line. The vessels are outfitted with state-of-the-art sensors and detection systems, and their large crews are considered a small sacrafice for the powers the Sword of Hapes brings to the Hapan navy.

Designed specifically for use with the Royal Navys newer and more powerful craft, the Sword was remarked by its designers as being the Battleship class equivilent of the powerful Lorell Gunship, whose combat victories have seen the craft awarded the 'gunship of the decade' title by the Galactic Strategic Planning Institute (Danoz) for its no frills attitude to combat, despite the tech laden nature of todays gunship market.
