*The exact type of the ''Snarl'' is uncertain. Although consistently described as an ''Overlord'' class vessel, it could conceivably be meant to be an ''[[Overlord-C]]''-class vessel instead. The ''Overlord-C'' class was not yet written into [[canon]] when the two sources naming the ''Snarl'' were published.
