ISYS-class

The ISYS-class was a failed support vessel built by Trident Industries.
== Description ==
The ISYS-class was a long ship, nearly 180 metres long, with most of the space dedicated to the massive shield draining beams that comprised the majority of the ship's 'weaponry'. The vessel's hull, after being stripped and modified, later became the basis for the more conventional Brawler-class Light Frigate.
== History ==
Mr Crazy conceived the ISYS in May 2315 as the first in a new class of ships twice as powerful as other ships of its size. Due to the inherent nature of shield drain beams, it did become that powerful, but at a great cost to range. The vessel basically had to get within point-blank range to be able to hit the opposing ship, and by then the opponent may have been able to damage the ISYS. After combat testing against Thryn vessels and NFD Rockhoppers it became clear to Mr Crazy that the vessel would not work efficiently enough, and the plan to create a new class was scrapped.
In June, the testbed vessel was bought out of storage, stripped to the bulkheads, and modified. The hull would later become the Brawler Light Frigate.
== Usage ==
Due to its nature as a testbed vessel, it has not seen combat. However it has been used in the following roles:
* Assault frigate
* Support ship
* Light destroyer
* Fleet support
