Just for fun, not for actual approval quite yet or if ever even? Just made this to pass time, it may not entirely be well balanced for the RP. Opinions and suggestions are welcome though!

I know what you're thinking; "Another Mandalorian ship? They already have more unique technology that all other factions combined! Denied!" Hold your horses, dear staff and allow me to explain my reasoning and intention. Yes, it's true the Mandalorians have a lot of technology, especially starships however you'll note that a lot of it is restricted to the Mandalorians and moreover restricted to a specific Mandalorian sub-faction.

This ship I tried to base roughly off of the Nebulon B frigate, my intention here was to introduce a vessel with similar availability. It is my understanding that, in the case of the Nebulon, it was nominally a restricted military vessel that was so popular and mass-produced it inevitably became a mainstay or workhorse in various other galactic navies, private organizations and even with individuals, spreading to practically every corner of the galaxy. Similarly, my hope is that this vessel can both be an additional vessel in the Mandalorian roster and open to all its subfactions in addition to being available to various Mandalorian allies and, in time, nearing the same level of ubiquity of the dependable Nebulon B frigate.

Opinions and suggestions are welcome.

I like the second 'cooler' template, looks awesome. As far as the Teroch herself I think she's both under-shielded and under-armored (looking at the Crusader-Class Frigate as a comparison), however other than this detail everything looks to be in order.

Thank you so much, I was even half-tempted to go full-on wiki-style and add in "History" and "Characteristics" sections haha.

Shame to hear it's underpowered, I was worried I may have over-corrected to not make it overpowered. Since it's my first piece of technology, I'm still unsure what the community considers balanced. I'd love to hear your and others' advice on how to make it standout more, it's supposed to be a heavy full-frontal assault ship armed with weapons found on larger ships but at the cost of very sparse rear armament.
 
I'd say the armament is just fine as-is, but that the shield and armor rating could be improved. A good rule of thumb for SBD and RU is 5x length of the hull for SBD and 2.5x length of the hull for RU.
 
@Aeaolen Kicka Per Silver's suggestion, is it alright if I alter the SBD and RU to 1900 and 1000 respectively?
 
I mean I feel like if it's a smaller ship using bigger guns it having a lower shield rating makes sense no?
 
You raise an excellent point. Should I leave it as is or is there a value you'd recommend?
