Description

This fully illustrated Star Trek: The Official Starships magazine covers the Smuggler's Ship. This unnamed combat vessel was encountered at the Qualor II depot in 2368. Of unknown origin, the vessel was involved in smuggling starship components from the depot by taking the place of the holding vessel USS Tripoli. This combat vessel's armaments were considerable - its phasers were powerful enough to reduce a Galaxy-class starship's shields by at least 15 percentage in a single volley. Following the discovery of the remains of the Vulcan vessel T'Pau's navigational deflector, the USS Enterprise-D uncovered the operation, and - disguised as an abandoned ship - lay in wait for the vessel's arrival. When it took position to receive that day's shipment of goods, the Enterprise powered up and attempted to make contact. The vessel responded to hails by opening fire. A low-power phaser burst in return destroyed one of its phaser arrays, and caused collateral damage in her cargo bays - which at the time were fully loaded, mostly with weaponry. This led to massive power fluctuations and internal explosions, finally resulting in the destruction of the entire ship. The ex-husband of Amarie was a member of the ship's crew.
