The Dreadnaught was originally designed and commissioned by the Old Republic. At their prime
time, they were the largest warships in service. Today they barely fit the class of medium
cruisers. The standard Dreadnaught in the Imperial Navy is not significantly different from
the original used in the Old Republic's. The ship maintains its weaponry. Even after
refitting, this ship's sublight speed barely matches the speed of the Victory I-class Star
Destroyer and still requires an extremely large crew. The reason for the large crew was that
this ship made little use or no use of droid assistance. The Empire was able to add flight
decks in its dreadnaughts to allow 12 fighters as well as 4 shuttlecraft onboard. Although
sluggish, it remains a powerful ship in use in both the Imperial and the New Republic
navies. The Misfit is aptly named, it was considered wrecked beyond repair for ever
serving in front line duty again, but it came back to life as a prison ship. It now carries
the misfits of the New Order. The ship is under heavy automation with slaved circuits,
bringing down the crew number to a minimal. Nearly all of the crew quarters were converted
into carbon-freezing and reeducational facilities. All weapons were removed, and a reactor
self-destruct is available to the captain in case of emergency. The Misfit holds a constant
number of "live" prisoners awaiting to be carbon frozen, as well as a number of reeducated
troops awaiting deployment.
