STRENGTHS

• Well-Equipped Light Destroyer: The Kressh-class was created to supplement the larger and tankier Star Destroyers in the Imperial Armada, but was also outfitted with a sizable amount of weaponry and defensive fixtures itself. Clusters of surface cannons and point-defense emplacements push back against any trespassing force.

WEAKNESSES

• Low Maneuverability: While more nimble than its larger destroyer cousins, portions of the space reserved for more maneuverable engine systems was sacrificed for better armament and defense. While the Kressh still possesses significant forward momentum through space, it needs more time and room to turn unexpectedly.

DESCRIPTION

Somewhat of a design upgrade from the Xo'Xaan II, the Kressh was built shortly before the onset of the Sith-Imperial Civil War to serve as another supplementary ship to the larger Imperial destroyers.

While the Kressh was less maneuverable than the Xo'Xaan II, it did possess more hangar space for another starfighter squadron in its underbelly.

But its primary directive other than fleet support was to better police the Imperial frontier worlds of the Galactic South and East where opposition to the Empire's expansion was at its strongest. Pirates, marauders, and Jedi-supported guerilla groups were abundant the closer the Sith Empire came to Hutt space, necessitating a diversion of resources to pacifying those sectors of dissent.
