I found on Wikipedia this strange name I have heard before. But I made a simple search on Google and found this site with this info on this particular ship. I am still looking for more info...
The only example of the exclusively produced Legacy-class Star Destroyer, cancelled after a production run of only one ship due to pressure from the Senate, the Legacy is the champion of many a tense fleet battle. Under the command of Admiral Josef Grunger, rumored to be a personal friend to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine himself, the Legacy carries heavy armament
and has top-of-the-line hull plating and shield systems.
NO SHIT. Everyone likes addons, everyone likes mods... but they always end up just throwing in super-lame bullshit and ruining it for everyone. It's funny to watch - usually it's more the ST mods that go the 'hero unit' direction.
How is it wanked, its only about a kilometer or so (unless i'm misreading the size) and so i imagine its about the same size and power as a ISD. In fact the fighter compliment seems the same too.

They are primarily a fabrication of the Kuati propaganda department, seized upon and blown up to ridiculous proportions by the Republic to cow Separatist sympathizers. But the Pride of the Core, a Mandator-class Star Dreadnought, Mark II, is very real and very dangerous. Measuring eleven kilometers from bow to stern, with a ponderously sized ventral reactor bulge bloating its already impressive mass, it is a terrifying sight and an even more terrifying enemy, once it brings all its mighty guns to bear. It is in the direct service of the Republic navy under Admiral Kohl Seerdon.

It feels as if the person who wrote that was choking on the very idea of the existence of the Mandator, then he writes a slight concillatory concession at the end to finish it off but yet tries to take another potshot at the same time.

Sounds like someone w/ an axe to grind against Saxton. Not that this is unheard of, mind you.

Edit: what is this ship from...my bad
Outalance is a group of modders who make ships for various sci-fi themed videogames. The "reactor bulge" is something that's been part of the Rogue Squadron games since II and I'm sure it's appeared in ohter games, too.
Howard modified the design of the Venator seen in some of the early spoiler pics - it's his design. Curiously enough, a very similar ship appeared in some SW promotional material after this mesh was finished...
Oddly enough, that's a pic I'm planning to use for my next fanfic. Humm.
