Alliance (Imperious-class)

"This ship is no longer the Imperious. I intend to give it a new name,, one that the Sith hate and fear to hear amongst their enemies. From now on this ship shall be known as the Alliance"

- Admiral Gar Stazi

The Advanced Star Destroyer Alliance, formerly known as the Imperious was a large, powerful warship built by the Galactic Empire ruled by Darth Krayt.

History
"We need to make military strikes, and for that, we need the Imperious!"

- Admiral Gar Stazi



The Imperious was constructed in the Mon Calamari Shipyards in 137 ABY, at the time under control of the usurper faction of the Empire. For its maiden voyage, the Imperious was to be operated by skeleton crews. It was the cause of the Battle of Mon Calamari as the Galactic Alliance Remnant led by Gar Stazi attempted to steal it and fell into a trap orchestrated by Admiral Dru Valan of the Imperial Outer Rim Third Fleet.

But the trap was really set for the Empire. While the Alliance Fleet and Mon Calamari Shipyard's guns (which had been hacked by a member of Rogue Squadron) devastated Admiral Valan's fleet, the stormtroopers that had re-seized the Imperious were actually Alliance troops, under the command of the ex-stormtrooper Hondo Karr. They stole the ship and successfully got it to one of the Remnant's bases. The Imperious was now in the hands of the Galactic Alliance. They then began the process of bringing its weapon systems online.

Unknown to the Alliance, Fel's Empire had sabotaged the Imperious: if the weapon systems were activated, bombs would destroy it. However, Monia Gahan and Imperial Knight Sigel Dare were able to warn Admiral Stazi. The bombs were deactivated and Stazi appointed the ship as his new flagship. He also renamed the ship the Alliance, in reference to the new coalition between the Galactic Alliance Remnant and the Empire-in-exile.
