Nightmare-class Star Dreadnaught

The Nightmare-class Star Dreadnaught was an advancement upon the Executor-class Star Dreadnought, and was larger in mass, length, and size. It had turbolasers and ion cannons along both sides (18 on each side) and was introduced at the Battle of Endor, when the first model, also called the Nightmare, was summoned to orbit to stand in for the Executor, as it had been destroyed by a suicide run by Arvel Crynyd. It was flanked by three Executor-class Star Dreadnaughts, the Victory, the Annihilator, and the Enforcer. It was damaged by an attack by most of Green Squadron. The Nightmare was forced to flee when the second Death Star was destroyed, so it, the Victory, the Annihilator, and the Enforcer fled the system.
