Description:
The Nubian aesthetic appealed to many of the galaxy?s rich and powerful; so there were always plenty of credits for Nubian Star Drives to produce high end starships. Many House Lords in the Tapani Sector used Nubian designs as their personal yachts, and monarchs from dozens of Mid Rim worlds used Nubian designs for their royal spacecraft, including Naboo.
The D-Type Cruiser sports all the amenities of the galaxy?s top luxury yachts with weapons and armor that could easily defeat a Nebulon-B Frigate. State-of-the-art ion drive and thrusters guarantee the cruiser?s VIP passengers have a good chance of making it out of assaults and ambushes. With the facilities to entertain almost 100 guests and advanced combat systems, the D-Type Cruiser?s price tag is much higher than similar-sized capital ships.
During the Galactic Civil War, a D-Type Cruiser was given to Mon Mothma by the Fey royal family of Utapau, as a gift for her commitment to freeing their planet of Imperial persecution. Renamed the Eternal Light after a refit and upgrade at Alliance High Command, the cruiser acted as Mon Mothma?s personal transport during some key years of the Rebellion. It featured advanced shields, sensors, and communications systems (including a hyper-transceiver), as well as an elite crew hand-picked by Jan Dodonna to protect the Alliance?s leader at all costs.
