Comments: The Gionetti class light cruiser is
named exclusively for posthumous recipients of the Imperial Starburst for Extreme Heroism.
Originally intended as a fast-reacting fighting ship, its actual use
has evolved with experience. The ship is currently in favor as a flagship for minor
operations. It high jump capability make it extremely responsive to most situations, and
it is possible to displace troops or service crew (or both) to provide quarters for
command and staff personnel.
