Liberator Cruiser is an Alliance capital ship in Star Wars: Rebellion. The in-game encyclopedia says the SoroSuub Liberator has a slender hull that hides room for three troop regiments and six fighter squadrons. It is small for a capital ship, yet carries a strong set of ion cannons and heavy turbolaser batteries. Its up-to-date armor, shielding and drives lead the text to place it among the most advanced warships anywhere.[1]

In the game

The Liberator Cruiser costs 66 refined materials to build and 55 to maintain. It has a fighter capacity of 6 and a troop capacity of 3. Its shields have a strength of 600.[1] The infobox values come from the game data.[2] The 25th Anniversary Community Patch does not change them.[3]

The manual's ship table gives the same capacity: 6 fighters and 3 troops. It also describes the ship as among the most advanced warships.[4]
