With the Order of Battle for the imperial Starfleet im doing , im currentley adding up all the carried ships, starfighter, shuttles etc. I need some help on what sort of ships are carried on the following ships/stations. All theses ships in there formations at Fleet level have Escort Forces, including escort frigates, escort carriers Heavy and Light Cruisers (Dreadnoughts etc) these have starfighters, so i cant see them having great amounts of starfighters carried, with the exception of maybe the Stations. What I really want to know is what kind of ships would you expect these ships to carry, ships like tenders etc.
Electronic Warfare Ships.
Superlaser Platform.
Torpdeo Sphere.
Customs Stations.
Supply Ship.
Medical Ship.
Fual Ship.
Ordnance Ship.
Maintenance Ship.
Communications Ships.
Deepdock Ship.
Construction Ship (Like the Arc Hammer).
Technical Services Ship.
Salvage Ship.
Training Frigate.
Astrogation Ships.
Engineers Transport.
Security Transport.
Starbase.
Dockyard
Supply Depot.
Surplus Yard.
Orbital Battle Station.
Military Platforms.
Thanks

I'll tell you what I can
Thats off the top of my head, WEG has all the nitty gritty numbers of weapons amount and what-not, check WEG for those
There are no real Dedcated EW Ships out there, When even a Frigit can jamm all comuncations in a Light Second Area... What more does one need? There are however Jamming Stalaties carried by some ships if nessary(Not a general purpose thing) and your typical Dreanuaght or SD can jam light Mintue sized Areas so agian dedecated EW ships are not nessaryElectronic Warfare Ships.
There are no real *Stations per say, Customs is normaly handled but a dedcated set of ships, usaly fighters and somthing of Corvette size that can wistle up somthing bigger if nessary, Acutal Customs normaly is handled by these rather than any set instlation(However Normal Customs IE like one would go though on a US Airliner going to say France are handled at the spaceport)Customs Stations.
Frieghters, be they normal, large or Bulk, Supply Ships share one thing in Common and thats Frieghter somwhere in thier nameSupply Ship.
There is no *Deepdock ship per say, Rather is a Modual Design of Girders with Engines attacted, Deep-docks varry depending on what they are buildingDeepdock Ship.
Even Star-Fighters have Communcations equipment that fits in a shoe-box but can communcate great distances, there are no dedcated communcations shipsCommunications Ships.
Generaly Bulk Freighters are used as Salvage shipsSalvage Ship.

Thanks for the Info, what I really need to know is what type of ships would be carried on the ones I mentioned, for example would a medical ship contain some shuttle for picking up fighter pilots who have ejected from there fighters. Would supply ships carry some kind of tenders for moving supplies into there holds.Mr Bean wrote:I'll tell you what I canThere are no real Dedcated EW Ships out there, When even a Frigit can jamm all comuncations in a Light Second Area...

I know theres nothing been mentioned, I ve just included one in my OB, for use with the Navy (I have a seperate Navy and Sector Fleets, that make the Imperial Starfleet)
I can then add this into my spreadsheet and get the amout of carried ships in each ship and every single formation, and a total figure, these are the last bits i need, then ship wise the spreadsheets done (its currentley at 52 megabytes)

I think this is what your looking for, this site has a lot of useful info, that should help you.
Not necessarily true the Communications ships in the ROTJ novelization, was responsible for all of the Imperial jamming at Endor. It destruction was what caused the heavy jamming to cease. Of course it possible that it was just a plain-jane destroyer, but if it was why did all appreciable jamming cease? I believe it at least opens the possibility, that specialized EW ships may exist.There are no real Dedcated EW Ships out there, When even a Frigit can jamm all comuncations in a Light Second Area...

X-Wing Allance is not Cannon while the WEG SUPMENTERY information(WEG=West end Games) is Cannon but very very low down(If anything contraditcs it, it looses)There seem to be Customs stations in the games(I know there not a high qffical source)
WEG are the fokes who made X-wing, Tie Fighter and X-Wing VS Tie Fighter
WEG is where you want to go for that then, There is currently a set of WEG books no longer aviable to the public Online as translated by MK Sheppered but I have no idea of the site link(I never do too, twice a week I'm asked for it and I still can't remeber it)Thanks for the Info, what I really need to know is what type of ships would be carried on the ones I mentioned, for example would a medical ship contain some shuttle for picking up fighter pilots who have ejected from there fighters.
