IGN Aganar Class "Light Cruiser" TL13

     The first Aganar class light cruiser was built by the Imperial Glisten
Navy in 997.  The last of the sixty vessels was commissioned in 1029.  The
ships are named for famous battles of history.  At the outbreak of the Fifth
Frontier War, the Aganars were the oldest class of vessels still in service
with the IGN, and were committed to action immediately as one of the few
meson gun carrier classes in use.  Merely the technological equals of their
opponents in the Collace Independence Fleet, and heavily outnumbered at every
encounter due to the vagaries of their pre-war deployment, the Aganar squad-
rons were virtually annihilated in the opening weeks of the war.  Between
combat losses and the destruction of a number of damaged ships under repair
during the brief Collace occupation of Glisten, only a single ship out of the
sixty, the IGNS Alesia, survived through the end of the war.  The Alesia was
reclassified as a fleet escort during the fleet reorganization of 1112, and
was still in service as a training vessel as of 1118.
     Short duration was a major problem of the class--immediate refueling
upon entering a system was a necessity, but was considered an acceptable
trade-off in return for the meson gun mounted on such a comparitively small
hull.

Collace Retribution Class Light Cruiser TL13

     The Retribution class light cruiser is one of four standard designs
produced for the Collace Independence Fleet prior to the Fifth Frontier War.
Like the others, every effort was made to make these vessels easy to assem-
ble, and over a hundred were in service by the outbreak of the war.  A small
group of these cruisers, along with one Freedom class battlecruiser escaped
from the final battle at Collace where they had been stationed throughout the
war, and were eventually sold to an Aslan clan navy in the Trojan Reach sec-
tor, and participated in the attack on Glisten in 1119, twelve years after
their sisters.
