What little information known about the ship class is taken from that single ship's description, though ambiguous wording implies that the ''Assagai'' may in fact be a modified ''League''-class vessel and not represent the standard configuration.

The ambiguous wording ("one outfitted as...") leaves it open if the orbital headquarters and communications relay capabilities on the ''Assagai'' were standard for a ''League''-class DropShip, or if the ''Assagai'' had received an individual refit resulting in those capabilities. Furthermore, dish antennae are mentioned as being "deployed from communications equipment bays high up near the armored bulge that marks the ship's bridge," one directed at the planet below (while in orbit) and one directed outward into deep space, toward the [[jump point]].<ref name=PG5/> This seems to infer an [[:Category:Aerodyne DropShip classes|aerodyne]] (as opposed to a [[:Category:Spheroid DropShip classes|spheroid]]) DropShip design. ==Named vessels== :''See'' [[:Category:Individual League-class DropShips]] ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * [[MUL]] ([http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/4485/league-standard MUL entry]) * ''[[The Price of Glory]]'' [[Category:DropShip classes]]
