DESCRIPTION

Werr Drive Yards has added to its blueprint catalogue in the lead and during the clone wars to include most of their ships. The company decided to make their own edits and version of the Core Ship from the lucrhulk to fulfill future plans. They set to work building the prototypes on the moon of Thalmari orbiting Taris in the Tarisian Republic. The moon provided the perfect spot away from prying eyes and allowing engineering teams to design the cargo wells that would allow them to be used to max effect. The first prototype iterations were not fully made inside. Opting for a reactor and a reduced leg count of nine more robust legs to land with.

The design was approved and finale test units were made with the cargo decks and full load out. These first units were used to move materials to the Thalmari moon where they were made, giving a successful test run fueling more industry. Over the centuries Werr Drive Yards had repeatedly retrofitted them to keep the ships in service and up to date. The most recent update to the production & retrofit line is new secondary reactors replacing the previous less efficient version. The update before it added Coreplast hull to dramatically increase its durability. The biggest use of the Tade core is in their Trade Barge, but Werr Drive Yards is always looking for something else to attach them to.
