Maria (MC80 Liberty type Star Cruiser)

The Maria was a MC80 Liberty type Mon Calamari Star Cruiser, and a sister ship of the Liberty, in service to the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.

History
After the evacuation of Yavin 4 and Ghorin's treachery, Maria received the stolen cargo from Ghorin's CR90 corvette Halifax and his captured Y-wings during Operation Grain Snatch. Maria also assisted the protection of a Leafar convoy while attacked by the Empire.

Alongside the Yali, the Maria was one of the last Rebel starships to depart for Echo Base on Hoth. The two cruisers were attacked by Imperial frigates Fear, Hate, Fury and Spite but they both made it to hyperspace after destroying the frigates.

The Maria was subsequently detached from the Alliance Fleet for raiding duty until she was recalled to join the main fleet assembling near Sullust for participating in the Battle of Endor.

Following the Battle of Endor, the ship was assigned to the New Republic Third Fleet under Captain Verrack. It destroyed Grand Admiral Syn's Silooth during the Liberation of Kashyyyk.
