Description

The Stefan Amaris-class is the first and only Battleship WarShip created for the Navy of the Rim Worlds Republic. Built in prior to the Amaris Coup, President Stefan Amaris was driving forces that lead to the ship as part his efforts to conqueror the Star League.

The first three vessels of the class played pivotal roles during the Coup. These ships would be sent on "shakedown" cruisse to 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 and would soon be captured by General Aleksandr Kerensky's SLDF forces while they completed their invasion of the Republic. On the General's orders, these two vessels would be completed and would play leading roles in recapturing the Hegemony from Amaris's forces. Although both former Republican vessels would fight until the end of SLDF' campaign to recapture the Hegemony, none of the five Amaris Class Battleships would ultimately survive the war.[1]
