The Imperial I Star Destroyer is the name the 25th Anniversary Community Patch gives to the Imperial Star Destroyer, a Empire capital ship in Star Wars: Rebellion. The ship keeps its original game data, so its figures are the same as on the original page.

In the patch

The patch describes it as the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer and lists its length as 1,600 meters. The patch names its builder as Kuat Drive Yards.

History

The Imperial I-class Star Destroyer is among the best-known emblems of Galactic Empire military power. These enormous warships were central to an Imperial strategy of imposing control and spreading fear throughout the galaxy. Carrying numerous weapons, along with many TIE fighters, stormtroopers and assorted ground vehicles, the class performed well in fleet engagements and in land assaults alike. After the Death Star was destroyed, these Star Destroyers were crucial to Imperial attempts to suppress the Rebel Alliance and hold on to the galaxy. Their imposing presence in many battles showed that the Empire relied on overwhelming power and superior technology to reach its goals.
