The Munificent-class star frigate, (MUUN-IFI-FICENT), shortened to the Munificent-class warship or the Munificent-class frigate. also known as the Banking Clan Frigate or commonly known as the Separatist Frigate, is a warship used by the Separatists during the Clone Wars era. It is later used as a New CIS Warship for the New Confederacy of Independent Systems during the The Last of the Droids helping Head of States Grievous & Trench fight the Galactic Empire.
Characteristics[]
Weapons[]
The Munificent-class star frigate is very powerful by weapons but weak in shielding. The Munificent has 10 Flak Guns which makes it very hard to destroy at some parts. Flak Guns are manned by Driver Battle Droids during battles. They also carry 2, long-range heavy ion cannons, 26 twin turbolaser cannons, 20 light turbolaser turrets, 38 point-defense laser cannons, and 1 hyperwave jammer to jam hyperspace almost like an interdiction field. As the most common of the New Separatist Warships, Munificent-class star frigates come in large numbers against Victory-class Star Destroyers and Imperial-I class Star Destroyers. 4-6 of these can overpower a Victory-class or Imperial-I class.
Control Tower[]
The Munificent's bridge is located in the front of the warship which made the ship an easy target. The bridge contains 6 Driver Battle Droids and 2 OOM Pilot Droids. Some cases, the OOM Pilots are replaced by Driver Battle Droids. The chair is located at the top section of the star frigate's bridge and 1 OOM Commander Battle Droid, Super Tactical Droid, T-series tactical droid, or B1 Battle Droid Captain can command the star frigate. In some cases, the Munificent-class star frigate would carry biological officers such as Trench or Lott Dod.
Complement[]
The Munificent carries 150,000 deactivated Battle Droids and also 10,000 Battle Droids prepared to fight and protect the warship. The Munificent-class can also carry droid starfighters to battle. Vulture Droids and Hyena Bombers are usually inside the ship's hangar or standing on top of it. Droid Tri-Fighters could be in the hangars sometimes, but not occasionally.
Usage[]
The Munificent-class star frigate is used as a Frigate, Communications Ship, Destroyer, Command Ship, and a Cruiser. This makes the Munificent-class have different roles during the Clone Wars and The Last of the Droids eras.

Helping the New Confederate forces[]
After the Munificent-class star frigates were finished, Trench and TK-33 left and took the 14 Star frigates with them to Ringo Vinda. The New Confederacy was about to lose when Trench's forces arrived. Trench's Providence-class carrier/destroyer and the Munificent-class star frigates fired at the Imperial-Iclass Star Destroyer Starblazerand OOM Commander Battle Droid OOM-85 escaped. The Separatist Frigates blockaded the Ringo Vinda Space Station.
Attacking the Conqueror[]
When TK-33 found out the Galactic Empire built a massive Imperial-I class Star Destroyer equipped with a Superlaser, Trench and the Fresian King, sent a Task force of 2 Munificent-class star frigates and 1 Munificent-class Command Ship. The Task forces was going to fire the Conqueror, until they fired them first. The other Munificent-class frigates were destroyed by the Conqueror's Superlaser and the Munificent Command Ship was also destroyed. In the wreck of the Munificent-class Command Ship, TIE Scouts scouted the area, but later found 3 B1 Battle Droids, and a Hyena Bomber. They destroyed the droids and the Droid Fighter and returned to Emperor Palpatine. On Fresia, Trench's Providence-class carrier/destroyer was landed and inside the Bridge, Admiral Trench and T-series tactical droid TK-33 got news from a Driver Battle Droid that the Task force was destroyed, Trench was furious and told TK-33 to plan a counter-attack on the Conqueror.
