Maneuverability Rating: 7

Hyperdrive Class: 2

Strengths:
Very Maneuverable - The ship prioritizes engine strength in Thrusters so it can aim its weapons appropriately
Long Range Weaponry - The Pocket Frigate is designed to have a small profile, but aid Cruisers as if they were equals in firepower, comparitively.
Weaknesses:
Few Direct Weapons - Other than the missiles and flak cannons, it doesn't have very many weapons for direct ship-to-ship
Geonosian-Only - It is designed with Geonosian use in mind, so everything is in Geonosian language and some systems may be activated or used differently

Description: The Geonosian Pocket Frigate is the first of its kind for Geonosian Industries in the modern era for local defense and assault on other ships and stations. Although it is considered a support ship, it is used as a mainstay along with other assault ships and widely used in their defense fleets. It can act alone against other average frigates, or form a fleet and be a tactical advantage in its own right. Based in Geonosian original design, it is homage to the original Geonosians during the Clone Wars.

Length: 475m

first off I recomend you change this to 400 metrers. At 475 only minor faction characters, major factions and companies can use it. By cutting it down 75 meters you open it up for use as personnel ships and minor faction to use more than one of them.

Well okaaay. I first wanted it around this number, and to base it on the Munificent, but that shil is Hugh Jackman

... It's huge, bad joke. That lil munificent is huge though. I never really paid attention ti it's size, haha


Edited. How does it's weapons look for a support LR missile frigate?

 

[ADM. Reshmar]

[member="Gisela the Righteous"] ok so with the speed and maneuvering as is, and with the weapons you have, Make the Armament rating 5 and defense 5 and that would bring you into line with an escort frigate standard stats. That will balance out the speed and half squadron you could make it a whole squadron if you like also.

Aw, alright. Bringing the defense down feels like it's gonna get popped.
