The Ursod
The Ursod is a heavily modified Empress-class Super Freighter. With so many changes made to the ship, it's questionable whether the designers who created it for Ghtroc Industries attempt to enter the super freighter market would even still recgonize it as having originally been built to their specs. It is heavily armed and armored, with a military grade powerplant and above average engines for a ship of it's type.

The Ursod is the flag ship of Davin Gleth, founder of the mercenary force known as Dark Stalker. He named the ship after one of the predators of Yavin VIII.

Notes:
Upon acquisition of the Ursod, Davin Gleth immideately set about turning the ship from a civilian cargo freighter into more of a military combat ship. His theory of transforming a cargo freighter into something that might be able to go toe to toe with many of the various ships of the line in active duty was that aquiring the weapons a little at a time would be less conspicous than his aquiring an actual capital ship. Thus the Ursod has undergone extensive modifications, which are listed below:

Modification Reason for Modification
Incom Starslinger Ion Drive Increase sublight and atmosphere speeds
SoroSuub Griffyn-XTG Lightspeed Unit To increase hyperdrive multiplier to a Class 1
Rendili Star Drive's ATX-5 To provide a Class 4 backup hyperdrive.
Shield Upgrade To increase shield strength
16 Incom W-34t Turbolaser For use against capital ships
24 Arakyd Tomral Heavy Laser Cannon For use against starfighters
8 Arakyd Hi-fex Proton Torpedo Launcher For general combat use
12 Taim & Bak 3.2 AV Blaster For use against airspeeders and landspeeders
16 BlasTech BT-202 Light Blaster For use against personel
Crew and troop quarters Housing for Crew and troops
Enhanced sensors To inrease the range and preformance of the sensors
Manuvering Engines Increases manuverability
Armor plating A light layer of armor plating covering the hull of the ship to slightly raise hull strength beyond that of a stock Emperess-class freighter
