Description
-------------------------
Sartan: Having spent most of their time supporting the Gryllas and Brinok in their many mission roles, the Sartan type ships have since been reduced to mere escorts, usually found in small fleets with the Norin and Rasilak, either protecting larger vessels, or cargo ships on various trade routes.
Gryllas: One of the mainline cruisers throughout the early-mid 23rd century. Built before the Brinok, and later supporting them, the Gryllas were generally, a cheap construction. Adequately armed, and at the time, were able to take the fight to a Federation Excelsior with akin chances of victory.
