DESCRIPTION​

The Z-33 Syndicate-Class Frigate was designed by nogori shipwright and arms maker Yolen Volzak, on commission from Grace Zann of the Zann Consortium. The frigate was created to look somewhat similar to older hutt warships, in an attempt to appeal to the hutt cartel's tastes. The vessel's schematic was created to appeal to Nor'baal the Hutt specifically, so the Zann Consortium could sell them the plans.

The Frigate is a heavily armored ship built for war and ship-to-ship combat. The vessel is comprised of durasteel, and has very powerful defenses thanks to it's heavy military-grade shield generator. The frigate had a small hanger area which could hold both fighters and shuttles, but it's most impressive features would be in the weapon systems.

The ship sports a large number of medium laser turrets coupled with a couple heavy turbolasers. On top of that, the proton torpedo launchers would also be an uncommon but powerful touch. Though none of these ships have entered production yet, both the Zann Consortium and the Hutt Cartel have access to these plans.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. Syndicate-class frigates are classified as capital minivans under Galactic law, and possess heavy weapons. As such, civilian owners will require extra licensing to operate one legally, and will receive increased scrutiny by authorities.

INTENT​

To create a standard frigate unique to members of the Five Syndicates and criminal underworld. This would be considered faction tech, if the syndicates had such an option.

RESTRICTIONS​

Syndicate-class Frigates are large capital minivans with heavy weapons, and capital ships cannot be owned or operated by individual characters. A faction would be required to obtain and crew a ship of this size, or a group of at least 2 players who work together regularly.
