Description: A smaller version of the White Star used primarily by dignitaries and ranger teams not expecting conflict, the Blue Star is an over-sized Minbari Flyer mixed with the layout and design of the ISA’s most famous cruiser. Equipped for speed and comfort rather than agility and firepower, it has thousands of common Alliance points of interest pre-programmed into the ship’s computer. A single pilot could name any of these places – Zagross 7, Minbari, Coriana VI for instance – in over five hundred languages, dialects and codes; the computer would set course and oblige.

The Blue Star is armed to be far less intimidating than its bigger brothers, not being exactly a frontline choice for any sort of battle engagement. It can hold its own against raiders and would-be assassins, but a fully pitched battle will make short work of the cruiser. Using its speed and dual jump drive systems, the ship is far more comfortable running from a battle to call upon the nearest contingent of Alliance ships if necessary – or the White Star fleet if possible.
