The Devils Payload Transport Vessel

The Devils Payload was the Darksider transport ship that during the battle of Tython went to sunspot and stole a shipment of refined dark matter in order to power the Gree superweapon mounted on the Shadowbringer dreadnaught.

The transport vessel was manned by five high ranking Sith Sorcerers lead by Dark Lord Darth Dogmaar accompanied by two pilots, all of whom perished during the collision with Ripper 5.

STRENGTHS

Though low on weaponry, the Devils Payload trimantium armour plating gives it an extra edge allowing it to take more punishment than normal should it find itself under fire.

While not the fastest ship on the market, the Devils Payload still boasts a top of the range hyper drive and faster than average sublight engines, giving it an edge over potential Je’daii pursuers.

WEAKNESSES

The Devils Payload was not designed for direct combat and although equipped to deal with a handful of smaller fighters, it would be easily overwhelmed by larger frigates.

With the additional armour plating due to its cargos status, the internal of the ship has been greatly reduced to what it could be, meaning that the cargo and passenger capacity is greatly reduced in comparison to others it’s original design.

DESCRIPTION

The Devils Payload was designed as a low volume troop transport, not a combat ship, however with the galaxy in an ever shifting state of war, it’s capable of taking a few hits in order for its people to get past or out of any combat zone it might come across. This coupled with its faster sublight engines and hyperdrive make it an ideal ship for quick getaways.

It boasts heavy trimantium armour plating that would allow the ship to take several laser hits without being destroyed if the shields were to fail and intelligent sensor array to allow the pilot to better anticipate the movements of attacking ships. Other key features such as the shroud device will also allow evasive action should the ship get caught in a tractor beam and its higher than average speed make it an ideal transport ship for Ironborn on any short range mission.
