The Nova-class were Earth Force's biggest and most powerful ships during the
Minbari War, but still much inferior to Minbari ships. Since then this class
of ships have been refitted and more built. The newer Omega-class design was
based on the Nova-class to save development costs. This class is seems
heavily armed, and mostly provide support for combat units. These ships are
probably capable of some level of planetary bombardment. Like the Omega-
class, these ships can also open up their own jump-points.
