Description

The Stefan Amaris-class was the first and only Battleship-type WarShip created for the Navy of the Rim Worlds Republic. Built prior to the Amaris Coup, President Stefan Amaris was the driving force that led to construction of the class as a part his efforts to conqueror the Star League.

The first three vessels of the class played pivotal roles during the Coup. These ships were sent on "shakedown" cruises to the Terran Hegemony, where they were to be refitted with lithium-fusion battery systems; they were used along with bulk of the Republic's garrison force fleet to secure the Hegemony for now-Emperor Stefan Amaris.

Two incomplete ships were still under construction at the time of the Coup and were soon captured by General Aleksandr Kerensky's SLDF forces during the SLDF invasion of the Republic. General Kerensky ordered that the two incomplete vessels should be completed and play leading roles in recapturing the Hegemony from Amaris's forces. Although both former Republican vessels fought until the end of the SLDF campaign to recapture the Hegemony, none of the five Stefan Amaris-class Battleships would ultimately survive the war.[1]
