	The Gage-class Transport, utilized by the Dark Empire and Ascendant Order, is a versatile and heavily armored vessel designed for both troop deployment and cargo transport. Its robust, utilitarian design features a blocky, angular hull with reinforced plating, allowing it to withstand significant damage in hostile environments. The ship is equipped with multiple thrusters for minimum maneuverability and a spacious interior capable of accommodating large numbers of troops, vehicles, or supplies. Its dual-purpose functionality makes it a critical asset for the Empire's military logistics and ground operations.
The primary purpose of the Gage-class Transport is to support the Empire's expansionist campaigns by delivering reinforcements and resources to the front lines. It is often deployed in conjunction with larger fleets, serving as a reliable workhorse for planetary invasions and supply chains. The vessel's design prioritizes durability and efficiency over armament, ensuring it can operate effectively in contested zones. Additionally, its modular interior allows for customization based on mission requirements, whether transporting infantry, heavy machinery, or prisoners, raw materials, fuel or any other cargo. This adaptability underscores its importance in maintaining the Empire's dominance across the galaxy.
