Excelsior

Excelsior was an MC80 Star Cruiser used by the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
==Excelsior v.s. Blue Fox==
During the Galactic Civil War, Imperial reconnaissance patrols located the Excelsior, and the Imperial EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate Blue Fox launched an attack against her with TIE/sa starfighters armed with proton torpedoes and concussion missiles. They also sent Alpha-class Xg-1 Star Wings and three CR90 corvettes to try to destroy the Excelsior. However, Alliance RZ-1 A-wing interceptors managed to hold off the attack long enough for the Excelsior to reach hyperspace. It would send T-65 X-wing starfighters and BTL Y-wing starfighters to attack the Blue Fox.

Although the Mon Calamari Star Cruisers featured in Star Wars: X-Wing: Collector's CD-ROM are identified in-game as MC80a Star Cruisers, they are visually modeled on the Home One type Star CruiserStar Wars: X-Wing Collector's CD-ROM seen in Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi.
