The Devorae Imperium Maelstrom:

This shipset represents the Imperium's fleet. The shipset is planned for use in SE4, that is the reson for the angled views (as well as providing a way to see the ships in a more realistic way). The Imperium's ships use standard design classes but use modular components as well as weaponry. Therefore different sizes and classes of ships can be modified or outfitted with specialized combat equipment. This enables versatility as well as confusing the enemy to what purpose each starship class serves. The only limitation is the size of modular equipment and the amount of free space on the hull of the ship.

Escort
		Oracle Class This small starship serves as a primary scout and explorer. The ship holds a small crew well versed in stellar navigation and deep-space opertaions.
Frigate
		Flamberge Class Often found in a support or escort role. They are among the most versitle starships and can serve many services. Somewhat too small for full combat, they are usually found in highly specialized roles in surgical strikes.
Destoyer
		Divine Wind Class Similar purpose as the Frigates but they are able to withstand more damage. Therefore they are found in front-line combat more-often.

Missle, Fighters, Mines
			Missles are carried by many different types of ships and sometime civilian ships have missile weaponry. The fighters design were based upon the sturdy and reliable destroyer hull. Quick and deadly, they can be carried by different ships not just carriers. Mines are designed with sensor and proximity techs and a basic detonation charge within the dual sensor pods.
