Description:
The Deception class minelaying corvette is designed to fill in a needed niche for Imperial forces. Although some vessels in service are quite capable off clearing enemy minefields, there are currently no ships dedicated to laying mine fields. Enter this corvette. It is a relativley simple ship, with three main sections. The first section contains the bridge, crew quarters, and defensive armament, along with sensors and communications gear. The central section contains the engines, hyperdrive, and drive core, along with a mine storage capacity. The after section contains the remaining mine storage capacity, or if mines aren't present, cargo storage capacity, along with the chutes the mines are deployed from and the tractor beams that help manuever them into place, or help with their recovery if they are being picked up.
The ship can haul up to two hundred mines of various classes. The most numerous being the small anti-starfighter contact or proximity mines, that are barely the size of a standard concussion missile. Round and flat, these mines contain simply the trigger and a small baradium charge which would suffice to destroy most starfighters. Next are the up to fifty general purpose sized mines, and have a wide variety of uses. Finally, twenty five large special purpose mines are embarked, the most common of these being the Empion mines. Finally, an extra twenty five mines of any size and purpose can be embarked.
The ship is designed to jump into an area, quickly deploy it's minefield, and then hop out. Although the ship is armed and protected, these measures are only meant to ensure the ship's survival as it retreats from whatever menace it is facing. The Deception is sure to find excellent use in the Empire's inventory.
