STRENGTHS

• Storage: The Siv Kryze-class Light Salvage Station is capable of holding a large amount of cargo within itself, somewhere in the vicinity of several million metric tons.
• Manufacturer: Though the primary purpose of the Siv Kryze is to store salvaged materials, the station is also capable of manufacturing its own products, thanks to its Molecular Furnace and Self-Regulating Droidmaker.
• Well defended: For a space station of its class, the Siv Kryze is surprisingly well defended and relatively difficult to destroy.
• Affordable: Like many Mahporeem made designs, the Siv Kryze is first and foremost designed to be affordable, as it can be built both quickly and rather cheaply, though this is offset someone by the inclusion of Beskar in its final design.

WEAKNESSES

• Unarmed: The Siv Kryze-class Light Salvage Station is completely unarmed, and must rely on other units to defend it from enemy attack.
• Immobile: The Siv Kryze is unable to move under its own power, forcing it to be towed into new positions.
• Valuable target: The type of cargo and materials that a Siv Kryze carries makes it an attractive target, and means that the station it likely to attract rather unsavory attention on itself.
• Resupply: With most of its available going to the storage of salvaged and reclaimed materials, the station must be resupplied with food, water and other essentials rather frequently.

DESCRIPTION

With the Anvil of Concordia Trade Agreement signed between the Mahporeem Imperial Remnant and the Mandalorian Empire, the already significant amount of scrap and salvage traveling to and from Mahporeem began to increase even further, thus straining the Imperial Remnant's processing capabilities to its limits. To ensure that operations would not be disrupted by the ever increasing volume of materials coming their way, the Imperial Remnant decided to create a salvage space station that would better allow them to store and move large volumes of reclaimed materials with as little headache as possible.

Named after Siv Kryze , the so called "Warden of Concordia", the Siv Kryze-class Light Salvage Station is designed to be constructed as quickly and inexpensively as possible, though the Mandalorian Empire's rather generous procurement of Beskar for the Imperial Remnant has somewhat defeated this purpose. Nonetheless, several Siv Kryze space stations have already been constructed along the new hyperlanes linking Mahporeem and Concordia, and like the N&Z Khonshu-Class Path Station that was responsible for the creation of the new trade routes in the first place, each Siv Kryze space station is jointly staffed by both Mandalorian and Imperial Remnant personnel.

Though they are ostensibly little more than glorified scrapyards, each Siv Kryze-class Light Salvage Station is surprisingly heavily defended for a space station of its type. Each station comes fully furnished with Reinforced Shield Generators, Beskar Reinforced Exterior Armor Plating, an Electronic Countermeasures Suite and a host of internal security features such as Blast Doors and Sentry Guns. This is to ensure that each station is able to operate without fear of being attacked or having their cargo stolen, since millions upon millions of metric tons worth of scrap and salvage is moved along the Concordia-Mahporeem on a daily basis.

Of course, these stations are by no means invulnerable, as each is completely unarmed, fully immobile and only capable of carrying a paltry 4 starfighter complement. What these stations are designed to do is to survive initial contact with an enemy fleet until reinforcements can arrive, whether that may take several minutes or several hours. Unfortunately, as tensions begin to simmer between the Mandalorian Empire and the Imperial Confederation, these stations may no longer be able to serve two masters at the same time. In the event that the Mandalorian Empire turns against Mahporeem, the Imperial Remnant does have a contingency plan should they fail to wrest control of the stations away from the Mandalorians: hidden Self-Destruct Mechanisms installed within the reactor of each and ever station along the trade route...
