In the Thrawn Trilogy, and the latest NJO book, the Final Prophecy, talks quite a bit about Golan Defense Platforms. As for what they look like, and a general layout of armament, X-Wing VS TIE Fighter for PC has some pretty good details. I'll see if I can dig up any links, but the most accurate description I've heard of a Golan is that it is armed like a Victory Star Destroyer, but shielded and hulled like a Super Star Destroyer. A Golan III actually inflicted moderate damage to Lusankya when it broke free of Coruscant in the Krytos Trap book in the X-wing series. In return the Golan III lost it's shields and a few weapons. They carry more Proton Torpedo Launchers than beam weapons.

That's the theory, but...

Shields: 4D[/quote]
That's the Golan III. For comparison, an ISD has 6D shields and 4D hull (if I remember correctly).

Golans make up for pretty weak armament with extremly heavy sheilds and thick armor.
Don't know exactly what they are, but I knew thats the case.

I've built them, cannot remember where I found the stats though. I must have researched it and been satisfied that it was canon... I'll see if I can dig something up.
If you add 'WEG' or 'West End Games' to any of your google searches for ships you can usually find a page that credits an RPG guide for the stats...

Also, are the Bavos defence platforms kosher?
If so , do we have Kosher stats for them anywhere?

I believe the Golan systems are from an RPG guide, I'll try locate it if I can. In any case they seem to be well under the standard armament wise, so they're fine. The Rendili looks good too.
