Epsilon-class Transport Cruiser

Overview

The Epsilon-Class Transport Cruiser is the Imperial Republic’s premier heavy troop transport and logistical deployment vessel. Designed to carry tens of thousands of passengers and troops into battle zones, the ECTC forms the backbone of major planetary invasion forces, humanitarian logistics efforts, and forward garrison resupply operations.

At 250 meters in length and with capacity for over 10,000 personnel, the Epsilon is a behemoth among transport craft. Its formidable deflector shielding, ion resistance, and modest weapon complement allow it to survive light skirmishes while staying well protected under fleet escort.

The ECTC is capable of carrying ground vehicles, heavy assault walkers, and shuttles for disembarkation, making it invaluable for beachhead establishment and full-theater deployments.

While not suited for ship-to-ship combat, its reinforced hull, sensor systems, and defensive jammers allow it to remain a reliable presence even in contested space.

True to the values of the Imperial Republic — Order, Peace, Stability, Knowledge, and Freedom — the Epsilon is a vessel of mobilization and resilience, bringing strength not through destruction, but through unwavering logistical power.
