Description: Designed to be among the fastest capital ships in the Minbari fleet, the Torotha assault frigate is a rapid attack craft with lighter firepower than the fleet’s larger warships. Similar to the engagement style of Star Rider fighter jocks, it dives headlong toward a foe with weapons blazing. It makes up for its so-called ‘lighter’ guns by moving quickly enough to evade a great deal of enemy fire while directing its weapons against one target at a time until either it or its target are space debris. To retain its speed and maneuverability the armor of a Torotha assault frigate is made much lighter than other Minbari ships, a weakness that can be very costly if it gets caught in the barrage of enemy fire it will no doubt be trying to dance through on its attack runs.
