The Strike‑class is designed from the ground up to be a flexible, efficient, modular starship with half the functionality of a Victory‑class Star Destroyer for 25% of the cost. Strike cruisers became an important tool in the Imperial fleet, able to be equipped for any mission and built in numbers great enough to replenish those lost in battle. The Rebel Alliance valued the few Strike cruisers it captured, often modifying them to serve in specific missions. The Imperial Remnant depends on these ships even more heavily than Star Destroyers, since this is one of the few class of capital ship it still has capacity to produce in large numbers.
Tactical Fire: Strike‑class medium cruisers have a modular design that allows them to fulfill a variety of roles. As a standard action, a Strike‑class cruiser can forgo all attacks to provide tactical fire to all squares in a 2-square radius around itself. All allied ships within that area gain either a +1 bonus to Reflex Defense or a +1 bonus on attack rolls (commander’s choice), but not both.
