Notes

  • Minbari Jamming Suite: The countermeasure and stealth-enhancing technology of Minbari vessels is the most advanced of the Younger Races. While active, the Minbari jamming suite makes it incredibly difficult for enemy ships to pin down the location of the Minbari craft. Note that a craft equipped with a Minbari jamming suite does not suffer any of these problems when targeting another craft (even if that craft also has a Minbari jamming suite).
  • Minbari Flight Computer: The computer systems built into most Minbari spacecraft are incredibly advanced, to the point where an authorized passenger simply need state where he wants to go and the vessel will simply take him there by the most expedient route, avoiding any dangers and hazards automatically. The flight computer is so advanced that it can even fulfill most combat operations successfully, with minimal input from its passengers. The Minbari flight computer may be activated during any order, though most Minbari vessels with one installed will have it permanently active. As long as it is activated, the craft may ignore any impaired penalties due to damaged control or crew areas. In addition, any Operations checks, Pilot checks or attack rolls may be made by the flight computer (4D+2).

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.
