DESCRIPTION
Designed by the ISC-native partnership of Gyndine and Christophsis Driveyards, the TL-1 was the first of two larger scale capital ships commissioned by the ISC Secretary of Defence and President Thorne himself. As the larger of the two designs, the TL-1 was given the most care and attention and many designers spent much of their overtime hours stressing and fretting over it in their patriotic passion to see the ISC capable of battling at the highest levels. Due to the sheer size and complexity of the ships, designers and teams were brought in from Mon Cala and from Bothawui to lend their assistance.

The overall design of the dreadnought was styled after the Bothan Assault Cruiser but with the aim of bulking it up to be within the same class as the Viscount-Class Star Defender of the Mon Calamari. Weaponry aboard the TL-1 was focused on matching that of the Excalibur-Class Super Star Destroyer as they were seen as the measuring stick for modern ships of the same class.

No expense was spared in making sure that the TL-1 could function both as the proverbial "biggest stick" and as a command vessel from which the newly remodelled and retooled Three-Fold Fleets could be commanded from. Part of this flexibility was accounted for by utilising the sheer size of the TL-1 in order for it to carry several small frigates, assault ships, shuttles, starfighters and starbombers. The idea being that the TL-1 should become a small fleet within a fleet, with the associated ships tasked with the sole job of protecting and supporting the TL-1 while it co-ordinates the rest of the fleet.

Currently the TL-1 Dreadnoughts brought into service are the "Thorne's Legacy" (the first produced and class-namer), the "Confederacy's Star" and the "Independence". They each serve as the flagship for one of the Three-Fold Fleets that operate within the traditional home territories of the ISC - plans are in place to roll out second production runs to serve within the ISCCT but the core-worlds were deemed less essential than the heartland of the ISC.

LEGALITY
Restricted. Like the Super Star Destroyers of the Sith, the TL-1 Dreadnoughts are classified as capital ships under Galactic law, and possess heavy weapons, making them difficult or impossible for civilians and even small factions to own. Their use is heavily monitored by ISC leadership as well.

INTENT
To give the ISC a dreadnought-class, super star destroyer style, ship to tote as the biggest gun in their arsenal.

RESTRICTIONS
TL-1 Dreadnoughts are large capital ships with heavy weapons, and capital ships cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. They are exclusive to the ISC faction. Due to the size of these ships they are only able to be operated by those granted explicit permission by the FL of the ISC. These can be revoked at any time if not used in the correct manner as deemed by FL/Staff. There currently exists only THREE of these ships in the galaxy. With a max production of one ever one in TL year, but this is to be decided by FL/Staff.
