   Comments: The Cheveldi-class battleship is considered the leader of the Zhodani assault fleet; designed to move with the assault ships, provide protection, and reduce the planetary defenses in preparation to the invasion, the Cheveldi class is equipped with only jump-2, yet has 6-G acceleration and agility 6, a type S meson gun spine and sufficient missile and fusion weapons to defeat even the most stubborn planetary defenses. As the leader of the assault fleet, the Cheveldi carries the fleet commander and his battle staff and contains sufficient communications equipment to lead the fleet to victory.
