The Exile-class Grand Cruiser is a venerable New Star League design which has been updated many times over the years. The current iteration combines powerful defensive shielding and a rugged armoured design with a vast array of weapons and point defence systems. Designed by the New Star League navy's finest engineers, it is the standard fleet ship, intended to fill the role for many decades.
The ship can also haul a large amount of cargo and passengers over long distances, while being able to function with a very low minimum crew when required. The vessel's standard role is as close escort for the fleet's even more massive flagships. With a minimal fighter and support complement, the ship can also serve on patrol and recon missions, able to fight and survive alone when needed.
