Ship Complement:

Description: Originally used as a battle dreadnought, the Orestes looked much different to its present configuration. Its early role was to act as the core of a task force engaged in rooting out and destroying Raider outposts on the edge of explored Earth Alliance space. The first incarnation of the Orestes, therefore, was a heavily armored battleship capable of shrugging off serious amounts of firepower. Unfortunately, it was also extremely expensive to operate, and once the pirates were driven out or defeated, it was often too expensive to make the return trip home. Inefficient on fuel and power supplies, demanding of life-support and supplies, the Orestes looked as though it would soon be decommissioned completely.

The Orestes received a new lease on life in the mid-22nd Century. At that time, the Orestes was the largest ship in the Alliance inventory, as well as one of the best able to stand up to enemy fire – even the neutron laser fire of the Minbari. The Orestes packed a tremendous amount of weaponry, so it did prove useful during the Earth-Minbari War as a mobile defense craft. In this way, the Orestes changed from a Dreadnought-class vessel to a simple system monitor, and Orestes vessels have been used as system defenders ever since.
