Description/role:

An ancient Mandalorian warship, this behemoth of a vessel was meant to be the pride of the Mandalorian fleet. Though smaller than the average capital class ship, it packs every bit of power as any other.

Photon Torpedoes are Star Trek. I think you mean Proton Torpedoes. Photon torpedoes would be like trying to blow up a ship with a flashbang anyways. Protons are the particles with mass that will do some damage.

For an ancient ship, that hyperdrive is pretty fast.

That's all I see right now.

-Very small for a dreadnought (not that I'm really complaining--we have too many dreadnoughts anyway).

-On that note, it IS heavily armed for a ship that size, mandalorian or otherwise. It has 416 turbolasers alone once you do the math.

-Not sure there's such thing as an anti-starfighter turbolaser since by default a turbolaser is a laser modified to deliver slower, more powerful bursts to capital ships.

-As it's all ancient and abandoned-like, surely a good number of the systems must be faulty or destroyed. Reliability for dreadnoughts is already abyssal, and this one is essentially a floating hulk.

-On that note, it IS heavily armed for a ship that size, mandalorian or otherwise. It has 416 turbolasers alone once you do the math. Not sure why I have the quad lights on there anyway so that's fair.

-Not sure there's such thing as an anti-starfighter turbolaser since by default a turbolaser is a laser modified to deliver slower, more powerful bursts to capital ships. The do exist from what I've read their either light turbolasers modified to track fighters and/or capable of shooting exploding shells (how a energy shell detonates in proximity I don't know, but those are the cards we're dealt.)

-As it's all ancient and abandoned-like, surely a good number of the systems must be faulty or destroyed. Reliability for dreadnoughts is already abyssal, and this one is essentially a floating hulk. (The ship was abandoned yes, but the atmosphere was vented and proper procedure to lock the bulk heads down was carried out while I'll consent that most external systems would be in need of replacement I don't see why any of the critical core components would necessarily be faulty. I've lowered it two points to compensate for your assertion that dreadnoughts are less reliable than other vessels.)

-Older dreadnoughts are smaller? Where's it say that?

-For the sake of our site's canon, turbolasers are always considered anti-capital ship weapons--mainly to avoid confusion. The explanation of this is that targeting systems advanced enough to effectively track fast-moving targets have not yet been created in this timeline (the few examples of anti-fighter turbolasers I could find on the wiki are from GCW era and further).

A single blast from a turbolaser could completely incinerate a fully shielded starfighter; however, due to their slow turret traverse and an equally slow period of charging up and cooling down, using turbolasers against fighters proved to be highly ineffective because fighters were too fast and small for a good target lock due to a slower rate of fire than point-defense laser cannons.

1. Elaborated assumption based on the size of 1st mandalorian war frigates/cruisers and the KOTOR era cruisers and frigates.

2.Fair enough though I've seen Hammerhead cruisers on wookie noting anti-fighter turbolaser batteries.

[A®heim]

-That's a fair curve.

- starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hammerhead-class_cruiser lots of point-defense and normal cannons, but no sign of anti-fighter turbolasers. The misconception I think so people have is that their cruiser with an anti-fighter rating of 2 is going to lose to a bomber with an anti-capital rating of 7. Sure, it probably will lose...against an entire squadron or two of them. Even if the ship is only armed with turbolasers, statistically, that single incinerating blast is going to finally connect long before the shields are whittled down with light laser cannon fire.

-Anyway, this is Approved (though you may want to swap around

6xAnti-starfighter Quad-mounted medium laser cannon turrets,

with

Each battery is made of 18 turrets(Ventral, Dorsal, 4x Port/Starboard).

since I think the latter is referring to the missile launchers).
