Later redesigns saw the ship altered for various purposes. Occasionally, the Acclamator I was deployed to assault fleeing enemy ships and freighters. Capable of landing to deliver troops, the Acclamator I was designed to assault ground positions, ground troops, and fend off fighter attacks. During this time, they were utilized primarily as troop transports against Separatist forces and were armed for the part. Rather, this vessel was designed and originally commissioned during the Old Republic. This meant the role of the ship was rarely as a ship-to-ship combatant.ĭespite being a predecessor to Star Destroyers, the Acclamator I-class Assault Ship has seen almost no deployment under the Imperial flag. Unfortunately, unlike later ships utilizing the same design, the Acclamator I lacked the heavy armament of later designs. This shape allows all weapons' fire to focus on the forward firing arc, as well as covering all other firing arcs except for the rear, which as with all other wedge shaped ships became a great weakness.
Relatively small in size, the Acclamator I-class Assault Ship was one of the earliest designs utilizing what would later become a trademark of Imperial ships the imposing wedge shape. Acclamator I-class Assault Ship's Rules Page
