Hereb-Class Executive Transport Ship Class: Corvette Ship Role: Executive Transport Ship Length: 101 meters Agility (A): 4 Defensive (D): 3 Offensive (O):2 Speed (S): 5 Special Gear: 0 DescriptionNot satisfied with the basic shuttles and corvettes offered to First Order Executives, it was sent to the academy on Carida for a student to come up with a fresh design. The response was the Hereb. Keeping with the traditional dagger shape of imperial vessels, the ship's name comes from an ancient word meaning dagger. The cadet designer put the most powerful hyper-drive an engines ever attempted in a ship this size, allowing the executive to cross the galaxy at remarkable speeds. Encryption systems and executive meeting spaces were added to facilitate business and government administrative needs. A couple of docking pods were at the rear of the ship. Primarily this was not a warship, but holding true to its name, it could be a weapon if needed. It was armed with 8 double heavy laser cannons, 2 turbo lasers, 4 tri-turret point defense cannons.

With a weapon set up like that, the offense would actually be rated around a 4. As it stands, the CR-90 carries just 8 turbolasers and is rated at a 3. All together, this equals out to 16 turbolasers, plus the additional weaponry.

Tri-ball? Why not make it a tri turret?

I feel those numbers would be a 2. The recently submitted Omicron in the same class is rated at a 2 and has 2 fewer double laser cannons and 2 fewer ion cannons.

It is less armed than the Raider II (classified as a 2). It has fewer heavy lasers, fewer turbos, and arguably the same number of ion cannons

in comparison, this has two dual laser cannons less, two turbolaser cannons less, but have nine more ion cannons considering these are tri-ion cannons versus the four single on the Raider II. Not a drastic change. Both can still fit in a 2 range. One could be high 2, one could be a low 2 but still a 2 nonetheless.
Thoughts from the other RPAs on whether the weapon count here should make it a 2 or a 1.

While I'm not an RPA, what you have there right now looks pretty good to me in terms of being a 1 for offense.

So we have 1 turbolaser, 1 heavy ion cannons, 4 heavy double laser cannon which totals out to 8. What are the light repeaters meant to be? Lasers cannons or blaster cannons? And what are the 4 tri turrets meant to be?

The light repeaters are basically ship-mounted e-webs. The 4 tri , i am thinking they would have one turbo barrel, one heavy barrel, one ion barrel that the gunner would choose what is firing at any moment. Those were included in the total barrel number i posted before.

Having just a few laser cannons less than the Raider doesn’t make it a 1 to me. You have, in my opinion, made it more powerful by doubling the turbolaser count from what you originally had. If we are looking at a 1 in offense the armament has to drop more. If you are going to keep the turbolaser count at 2, I wouldn’t have more than maybe 4 laser cannons and 2 ion cannons.

What do you mean by a "heavy" barrel? Heavy is a categorization of an existing weapon, turbolaser, ion cannons, laser cannons et cetera. Unless I have a major misunderstanding of what you mean.

I've given my feelings on what I feel the armament should be to put it at a 1 in offense. For now, I'm waiting until the other RPAs given their opinion.

My recommendation for a 1 stat was 2 turbolasers, 4 laser cannons, and 2 ion, or something of that nature.
