Overview

The Imperial Courier is the archetypal Imperial starship from both FE2 and FFE. It is probably the largest effective combat vessel in both those games as it provides a useful balance of speed and size. They are considered formidable opponents to relatively new players to the games.

It is closely related to the Imperial Trader, another starship commonly used by the Empire in both FE2 and FFE
