From the birth of the rebellion the navy has played an important role in defence against the tyrannical Imperial regime. Though from simple beginnings the navy has quickly grown with the formation the Rebel Alliance. Gone are the days of unorganised resistance and now is the time of coordinated attacks from a united force.

Capital ships are the navy’s largest and most powerful ships. These ships are tasked with a number of roles including attacks on soft Imperial targets as well as large troop deployments. Another important role is to keep the Alliance a mobile and elusive force, allowing fighters to launch deep into the enemy’s supposed strong holds as well as supporting remote rebel bases. Refitted civilian ships, stolen Imperial ones and planetary defence fleets are just a number of sources from which these ships have been acquired. As such Marauders and CR-90s are the most common vessels found in today’s navy.
