Description:
The Intimidator, BL14, Light Battleship is a typical Core design. This vessel has transitioned throughout several
generations of the Imperium from TL12-15.  Durring the Rebellion the majority of these front line ships were
destroyed. Earlier versions were scrapped, dismantled or sold off to client states as with many of the Fighting
Ships of the Shattered Imperium. 
By TNE the only existing vessels were the TL14 era. Unfortunately, the only know versions have been owned,
controlled by Virus.  It is also possible that Virus is or intends to produce the TL12 version.

This T20 version is armed with the slightly different weaponry, 50% jump fuel. The ship can use power plant fuel for
a J3 and have enough fuel for a bit over a week of power plant life. This requires refueling quickly after the jump
after using 2/3 of the fuel. One additional week of fuel is available for the trip and a day for fullpower manuevering.
Some captains will convert the majority of the cargo to fuel or carry jump tanks for extra flexibility.
