Comments:
The Bonaventure-class was designed and built for Baroness Heidi Maria Heyerdahl, owner of Menelvagor Ltd. The vessel is designated as a merchant cruiser, and fills the role of a heavy merchant escort. Built by the famed Pixie yards at the average Imperial tech level (TL 13), it is designed to be more readily repairable than a TL 15 craft.
Other design features, such as the three troop platoons, may make it an effective commerce raider behind enemy lines. It is able to deliver small raiding parties to virtually any location with the combination of assault boat & passenger modules, APCs, and G-Carriers.
