Marauder


The Marauder is a modified Omicron-class attack shuttle that serves as the home base and gunship of Clone Force 99, also known as the Bad Batch. The elite clones used this vessel for several covert missions during the Clone Wars, relying on it for stealth, speed, and maneuverability. Following the war, the Marauder continues to propel them throughout the galaxy as they evade the Empire.

The Omicron-class attack shuttle was employed by the Republic during the later stages of the Clone Wars, notable as being much larger than others available at the time. While the Marauder is indeed this type of ship, its many modifications have turned it into something different — namely, a makeshift home for the Bad Batch.

Manufactured by Cygnus Spaceworks, the Marauder measures 30.33 meters (or 99 feet, 6 inches) in length, 36.65 meters (120 feet, 3 inches) wide, and 12.41 meters (40 feet, 9 inches) in height. Its main armament is two heavy laser cannons, with one on each wing joint, and the vessel also features five wingtip-mounted light laser cannons and a rear double laser cannon. It reaches a maximum speed (in atmosphere) of 750 kph (or 466 mph). Similar to other shuttles of its kind, the Marauder can extend its wings for flight and collapse them for landing; it also has hyperspace capability and is fit with a powerful sublight engine, which provides improved maneuverability.

Following one mission that saw the Marauder severely damaged, the Bad Batch landed for repairs on Ordo’s moon. Wrecker used the opportunity to convert the Marauder’s top gunport into a bedroom for Omega, feeling she deserved a space of her own.
