Manufacturer- Lorrd Engineering
Designation/Model- Anti-fighter cruiser/Manumit-class patrol cruiser
Class- Light cruiser
Length- 250 meters
Width- 59 meters
Engines- 4x Lorrd Engineering HP-7 ion engines
MGLT- 60
Atmospheric Speed- 900 km/h
Hyperdrive-
- Class 1.0
- Backup Class 6.2
Shielding- 560 SBD
Hull- 300 RU
Armament-
- 7x Quad laser cannon (two port aft, two starboard aft, one port midships, one starboard midships, one dorsal midships)
- 5x Dual laser cannon (one ventral aft, one dorsal aft, three ventral bow)
Special Equipment-
- Deployment ramp in the rear of vessel can be extended when landed on a planetary surface or atop a larger vessel, if landing applicable, to quickly disgorge ship's compliment of marines.
Crew- 70
Troops- 50
Cargo Capacity- 1,000 metric tons

Information- With a rise in piracy from smaller craft and freighters conducting hit and run attacks, a durable, legitimate anti-starfighter design has been required by a multitude of naval forces throughout the galaxy. The answer to this issue comes in the form of the Manumit-class patrol cruiser. Capable of long-range patrol, acting alone against most pirate forces and even landing planetside, its most important feature is its high-powered engines and electronics system, allowing it to keep a decent attack pace with most fighters and be sufficiently agile to hold its own, even against a squadron of fighters.

| No way on the 80 MGLT on a ship of this length. Thats as fast as Y-Wing. 50 is the maximum I'd like to see from a yard not specializing in speed (Moncal, Kuat dagger designs or CEC for example)
Id like the crew increased to something approaching 0 BBY Frigates of this length, or a droid crew added too, or the ship being a short range ship (Consumables 1 week).
Otherwise happy to approve the rest.

| With all due respect, you can't sit and say that my yard doesn't specialize in speed, just because other shipyards produce fast craft. Lorrd Engineering creates a wide variety of engines and vessels and each engine actually has a designation and purpose.
Judging off of similar craft of anti-starfighter design, smaller crews seem to be the thing, so there's not necessarily a need for a larger crew. The Tartan-class, which was in part and inspiration for this vessel. As well, the amount of supplies are actually comparable to the Tartan-class.
We have larger cruisers that go at least 60 MGLT; cruisers with far more tonnage than this much smaller vessel.
I'd be willing to go to 60 MGLT on it, by all means. It's a compromise on speed, I would believe.

| My answer to the crewing issue is Vigilance Defense Systems.
As part of Stark Unified Defense, VDS contributes to multiple products in the forms of advanced data chips, automation, advanced sensors, etc.
However, I will increase the crew to 130 total, to compensate for the time difference.
I also don't believe I've ever said Lorrd Engineering has no experience building combat ships. I'm fairly sure I've said they lack the same skill at building large vessels, but smaller vessels were designed to be their 'thing' in this era. So, when future larger vessels emerge, I'll be sure to make them with more drawbacks. I also don't think I said they've never put a ship in combat. That would be utterly pointless as a company, and I know I wouldn't 'just' be introducing Lorrd Engineering as a brand new shipyard out of nowhere. They do have some history, after all.

| If you'd be prepared to go for 130 Crewmen and 80 Maintenance Droids independent thinking but directed by ships computer. Then I think we could do business.
Also. As the image doesnt show any quad-lasers, I'd like to give you the chance to swap them out for something dual mounted (I'd even be accepting of anti-fighter Ion Weapoary)

| I don't see your fascination with making sure many ships have droids on them. There's not a need for such, honestly. 130 crewmen is sufficient, I feel, and droids are not always needed.
If you look carefully, you can see the side-mounted turrets are quad mounted and not dual.

| Because droid crews are pretty common in the era. And are the alternative to your shunned big crews!

| I don't feel a defining element on a vessel's approval should rest on its number of cleaning and auxiliary droids. To an extent, assumptions can be made. If a ship has a large droid crew I would list it, but I don't think it factors in here.
