This particular starship was fairly uncommon during the Rebellion, and 
was largely found attacking the coreward Domain frontiers during the 
early years of the Final War.  While certainly not capable of joining the 
Line of Battle, it was fairly well used as a major commerce & convoy raider.
A peculiar Gvurrdon design, it stresses speed and weaponry over armour.
  
It obtains it's extraordiary maneuverability by sacrificing nearly all 
it's armour, making it quite vulnerable to PA and laser strikes.  An 
excellent missile platform, it was heavily used for Vargr planetary 
bombardment from orbit.  A massive meson gun is supplies, with a PA 
accellerator for fighting at longer ranges. 

While it does have a fuel purifier, it's massive, unweldly form (rear end 
is similar to a massive concave mushroom, with it's stalk covered with 
spikes and odd bumps) makes it impossible to operate in atmosphere.

It's large communication suite makes it a viable command platform: a flag 
bridge can easily be installed to suit the commander's needs, as the fuel 
tanks are capable of handling life support.  However, since fuel is the 
lifeline for such a thinly-armoured craft like the Llanvull Oguu and it's 
sisters, no bridge is installed initially.
