Historical Information
The Orel Class, much like the Bystryy, has been around for many years, operating as Kopperia's primary anti-piracy vessel. Despite its small armament, this ship has proven itself time and time again, and the tale of the original Orel is often recited as the reason why.
In an engagement nearly 1000 years ago, the Orel won legendary acclaim by fighting and defeating 16 pirates on its own, despite nearly being destroyed itself.
Ever since, these ships, once seen as little more than pickets to protect Prospectors or trade ships, have become a symbol of authority, order, and security in Kopperian space.
