After discovering the Vorpal Orchid, Major Konig set the course for it's previous destination, it was for a Battle Cruiser. He had it refurbished by the New Republic and he was the commander of this vessel. Once the New Republic collapsed, this ship was still patrolling some outer rim worlds. As a result of the lack of real government, this ship fell neatly into the Major's lap. This cruiser was a Dreadnaught, 600 meters of durasteel and bristling with weapons. After the Republic collapse, the Major had a freelance shipyard repaint this dreadnaught to the white and crimson colors of the old republic. But he kept the New Republic emblem on both Starboard and Port sides of the ship.
