Talk:Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser

Outbound Flight
I have removed this text: "Six Dreadnoughts were used in Outbound Flight, an ill-fated project aimed at extragalactic exploration." I don't recall if this is accurate. Can someone provide a source? --SparqMan 06:31, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

Naming
Once again, ship naming rears its ugly head. Starwars.com, along with other canon sources (and an abundance of EU ones too) refer to these ships as Dreadnought Heavy Cruisers. It appears that they are not given a class name because they were the only ships of their type. I cannot find a G-Canon source that confirms this name. Am I missing one? If not, we should move it to Dreadnought Heavy Cruiser and fix the article text. --SparqMan 06:33, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I Don't have a G-canon source (I don't believe there is one - I think Dreadnaughts are entirely EU creations), but page 215 of the Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook does call it a "Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser." Also note that the ships are consistently misspelled froma real-world perspective, with an "a" instead of an "o"; all sources I've encountered (including the TTSB, the Imperial Sourcebook, and Dark Force Rising) use this spelling.
 * The Official Site calls them Dreadnaughts. There are Dreadnoughts in the EU (Cydon Prax drives a 'Dreadnought' assault vehicle in The Clone Wars) but these cruisers are officially 'Dreadnaughts'. Kwenn 19:20, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

I thought that they may have been mentioned in one of the DK books off handedly. The WEG books are fairly inconsistent. Can anyone check the Thrawn Trilogy books? I don't have my copies here. --SparqMan 19:34, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
