Description: Seeing how massive dreadnoughts like the Narn Bin’Tak and the Pak’ma’ra Pshul’shi act as a deterrent due to their sheer size, the Vree found it logical to create one of their own. The Xonn is deployed with the opposite of normal Vree attitude. Instead of being enigmatic and secretive, the dreadnought is used in open view of the public at all times.

Its deadly reputation spread quickly, and the Vree were happy to hear that it was looking like it would be among the most feared vessels in the galaxy. Assigned a full five antimatter cannons and a pair of supercharged shredders while ringed in antiproton guns, its destructive power heralds it the deadliest saucer the Conglomerate has at its disposal. While not as large as some of the other dreadnoughts in the galaxy it was modeled after, it somehow manages to keep the Vree’s signature mobility and the constant ability to turn its most lethal weaponry on any enemy in an instant. While made for its reputation, the Vree were able to make a powerful adversary for any enemy of the Conglomerate.
