Corellian Corvette
|
|
10,000,000 |
|
The Corellians are known well for their versatile multipurpose starships. The Corellian Corvette is an excellent example and can easy function as either a troop transport, light escort, cargo or passenger carrier. Unlike most highly specialized vessels, the corvette is so easily modified to varying tasks that it is found throughout the galaxy.
As a transport ship, the Corellian Corvette has massive and highly adaptable internal holds capable of carrying anything from loads of grain and water to highly sensitive fuels. To protect this cargo, there are plenty of weapons hardpoints on the hull of the ship allowing it to support a variety of weapons types and configurations. This is one of the reasons why this craft is so popular among the Rebel and Civilian interests anxious to provide defense against unexpected "Imperial Entanglements". The Empire itself often uses a more heavily armed and armored variant of the CR90 as an escort and picket vessel.
As a passenger vessel, quarters can be installed of any comfort level from standard steerage to first-class. Corvettes were widely used as civilian passenger liners and colony ships. They are also easily converted into light combat escorts (like the model depicted above), but their thin armor and shields make a lone civilian Corvette a tempting target for a determined enemy.
The Corellian Corvette under the command of the Royal Guard is modified with a cloak device and several other special components. This ship is used as a secret reserve on missions, which has to be taken care of by the Emperor himself and as mobile basis or support ship on secret missions of the Royal Guard. The Royal Guard was provided with just a very limited amount of these vessels.

Corellian Gunship
|
|
11,000,000 |
|
The Corellian Gunship is one of the few dedicated warships designed and manufactured by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. It is relatively small, but carries a formidable amount of weaponry; this ship could easily win a battle against a vessel twice its size. However, as a result, there is little space on board for cargo or extra equipment, unlike most CEC ships. The most heavily armed of the Corvette-class starships. An excellent anti-starfighter platform.

Sith Dreadnought
|
|
14,000,000 |
|
Although the Sith Dreadnoughts have been retrofitted by the Galactic Empire, they are still obviously technology from a bygone era, large lumbering vessels, which can barely stand up to more modern vessels in combat. In fact they would be fazed out of use if the Galactic Sith Empire could afford to lose that many ships, until they can however these ships will remain in use, they are large powerful weapon platforms and still have some use in them yet.

Cantwell-class Star Destroyer
|
|
17,000,000 |
|
Although the Victory-class was the first mass produced type of Star Destroyer, the Cantwell-class was an experimental design that was built in limited numbers to test the concepts before the investment was made to design and build the Victory-class. The Cantwell-class is a fairly primitive design, and although it features some extremely powerful systems, it is a weak and flawed capital ship design. The few Cantwell's that were built have mainly survived the years, but only because they never had to play a part in any major battles. Some were sold off to the Corporate Sector Authority, and some were mothballed or put into reserve fleets and therefore ended up in New Republic hands. The New Republic's lack of capital ships has meant that a couple of Cantwell-class Destroyers have been put into front line service, but significant refit and upgrades were necessary to bring these ships up to standard.
The Royal Guard was provided with just a handful of these vessels to protect the Emperor on his secret missions in the early days of the Galactic Empire. Modified with many special components the Cantwell-class Star Destroyers have been used as secret reserve on many delicate assignments. The more useful Victory Star Destroyer replaced the earlier decayed ship very soon. Cantwell-class Star Destroyers do their service as protection and supply vessel of the Baas-class Space Stations nowadays.

Victory-class Star Destroyer
|
|
20,000,000 |
|
The Victory-I-class Star Destroyer was designed near the end of the Clone Wars, and these ships formed the core of the Imperial Navy after the turbulent era. The concept of a massive, highly destructive starship was first researched during the Clone Wars. When it first went into service, it was considered the ultimate combat starship design and it was the largest vessel ever constructed. As more Imperial-class Star Destroyers were built, Victory Star Destroyers were being reassigned to planetary defense or moved to reserve fleets deep in the Galactic Core. These ships proved to be an important part of the Imperial Navy even though they are over three decades old. The Empire eventually decided to have 520 Victory Star Destroyers to be decommissioned from the 27th Denarian Fleet to make room for the newer Imperial-class Star Destroyers. Few VSDs still serve in the Imperial Navy. Most of the remaining Victory Star Destroyers that were decommissioned were sold off to planetary defense forces and the rest were purchased by the C.S.A. The Corporate Sector Authority purchased 250 these ships.
These ships have three mission profiles in mind: planetary defense, planetary assault and ground troop support, and ship-to-ship combat. The Victory's biggest weakness is ship-to-ship combat, its three LF9 ion engines cannot produce sufficient speed for deep-space combat and most modern combat starships can simply outrun them. Due to the fairly slow speed of the VSD, it relies on its tractor beams to gain the advantage in combat. For success, the captains on the Victory must first establish a superior position. They can best surmount their shortcomings if they are assigned Interdictor Cruisers, Escort Frigates, or Light Cruisers for support. This vessel is excellent for planetary actions because it is one of the largest capital ships that can operate effectively in a planetary atmosphere and thus bring the battle directly to the enemy on the surface. While most newer vessels are restricted to orbital bombardment, thus gives the Victory a tactical and a psychological advantage, since they can deliver accurate and devastating bombardments in the atmosphere of a planet.
The two rods that jut out of the command tower are forward observation stations. Similar to the Imperial Star Destroyer, two shield generators on top of the command tower provide protection for the ship. The third smaller dome, which is set behind the shield generators, is actually the aft targeting systems. The communication tower is also located on the command tower, unlike the ISD II, the communication tower is perpendicular to the hull. In the centre, extended outward as a beak from the command tower is the bridge for the VSD. Also similar to the Imperial series, is the two distinctive Primary and Secondary Launch Bays and the solar ionization reactor which are located on the ventral part of the ship. Topping all this off is the two atmospheric maneuvering surfaces on the flanks the VSD.
The Victory Star Destroyers under the command of the Royal Guard are modified with a cloak device and several other special components. This ship is used as a secret reserve on missions, which has to be taken care of by the Emperor himself. The Royal Guard was provided with just a handful of these vessels to replace the decayed Cantwell-class Star Destroyers.

Baas-class Space Station
|
|
30,000,000 |
|
The Baas-class Space Station is employed by the Empire for supply depot purposes. This deep-space base features twenty supply levels: ten supply levels above and ten supply levels below the docking bay areas. Its flight decks are equipped with huge magna-seal doors. Deployment numbers of DepotSec Troops assigned to these stations vary. For example, the Baas-class Station that was located in the Rainos Cluster was situated in a remote part of space and carried unimportant supplies, thus it was only assigned twelve DepotSec Troops.
The Royal Guard uses this type of Space Station only after significant modifications as secret mobile Training-, Supply-, Research-, Repair- and Manufactory Station. The Royal Guard is provided (due to their low number of this elite corps) with just one of each model.

Lictor-class Dungeon Ship
|
|
35,000,000 |
|
Based on a Mandalorian design, Rendili StarDrive's Lictor-class dungeon ship is a 764-meter-long prisoner transport vessel. Sections were designed with variable environments to create conditions which were as uncomfortable as possible. Other will-breaking devices present were sirens, electric shockers, and various gas emission systems. When the Empire began using these ships to transport captured Jedi Knights, they installed energy shields based on the Universal Energy Cage around each partition. Life support systems were also run at minimal levels. Each Lictor-class ship was given enough of a navigational computer to hold two jump coordinates: the prisoner transfer planet and the final destination. This provided a defense against prisoners hijacking the ship. Each Lictor-class ship was equipped with 10 quad turbolaser batteries a 2 tractor beam projectors. They were manned by a crew of 860, 46 gunners, and 800 security wardens. They could transport up to 9,000 prisoners; 1,000 of them could be housed in special holding cells.
Due to the delicate assignment members of the Royal Guard commanded these secret ships.

World Devastator
|
|
50,000,000 |
|
Designed by the scientists at the Maw Installation, the plans for the World Devastator were sent to Grand Moff Tarkin years after his death at Yavin. The plans were intercepted by Umak Leth, who convinced his superiors that the designs were his own. This was easily accomplished, since the existence of the Maw Installation was well-hidden by Tarkin. Leth saw the creation of the World Devastator as his chance to surpass the genius of Bevel Lemelisk. He took the basic idea of a molecular furnace that broke down matter into its basic elements, and expanded on it. The plans were transmitted to GM Tarkin just after he left the Maw Installation with Bevel Lemelisk and the plans for the first Death Star. As with the original Death Star plans, their source was never revealed to Emperor Palpatine. The World Devastators were eventually implemented by the clone of Emperor Palpatine and used against Calamari. It was the second generation of superweapon from the Installation, and was designed to "eat" the material from a planet's surface (buildings, cities, spaceships, etc.) and reconstitute them into raw materials for creating new Imperial war machines. As with the Death Star before them, the World Devastators were described to the engineers working on them as beneficial, to be used to recycle useless rubble into useful industrial components. In a similar vein to the Mon Calamari starships, each World Devastator was slightly different than the others. This stemmed from the fact that they built themselves over time. The basic skeleton is the same, but the ships are "grown" under supervision until they are ready for deployment. Then, their programming is altered to allow them to attack a planet and begin consuming its resources for use in creating other war machines, rather than for expanding themselves.
The Royal Guard has been provided with just a prototype of these World Devastators. These vessels are used for space mining to supply the Baas-class Manufactory Space Station with valuable raw materials.

Mimas
|
|
80,000,000 |
|
Mimas, the innermost of Saturn's larger moons, was nearly shattered by a cataclysmic impact. From observing Mimas' crater Herschel, scientists speculate that the inner satellites of the outer planets have, in fact, been shattered and gravitationally reassembled many times in their geologic history. Herschel's walls are approximately 5 km (3.2 mi) high, parts of its floor measure 10 km (6.2 mi) deep, and its central peak rises 6 km (3.7 mi) above the crater floor. The diameter of this moon is 394 km (244 mi).
