Description
OOC of the most powerful battle-fleet in the Imperial Navy and one heavily associated with Darth Vader.

---------

Death Squadron was the codename applied to Darth Vader's personal fleet of Star Destroyers following the Battle of Yavin, led by the Super Star Destroyer Executor. Because of it being led by the Executor, their fleet insignia also bore an image of the Executor on it. The fleet, designed to instill terror in dissidents of the Empire's New Order, was in fact tasked with locating and destroying the Rebel Alliance headquarters. Moreover, Vader used his fleet in a more personal mission to find and capture his son, Luke Skywalker.

Though Death Squadron initially consisted of only six ships—the Executor and five Star Destroyers—it earned a fearsome reputation as the personal armada of Darth Vader, who also had the authority to assign additional ships from other sectors as he saw fit.

The Imperial Navy's Death Squadron consisted of one Super-class Star Destroyer as it's flagship, the Executor, as well as eight Imperial-class Star Destroyers, primary Avenger, Tyrant, Thunderflare, Stalker, Colossus, Vehement, Adjucator, Accuser and Vengeance. It also possessed the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Devastator, which had been Darth Vader's flagship before the Executor, and had been refitted on multiple occasions to keep it up-to-date. Death Squadron also featured Gozanti-class cruisers but was soon reinforced by several Thuval Salan-class Zentraedi Cruisers, Zentraedi Escort Destroyers and Carriers and even Immobilizer 417-class Interdictor Cruisers.

By the Battle of Endor, Death Squadron had been reinforced to include two battlecruisers, three Tector-class Star Destroyers, and thirty-three addtional Imperial Star Destroyers.

Yet the Death Squadron was mauled by the end of the battle and while Grand Admiral Grunger's flagship, the Super-Star Destroyer Aggressor crashes onto the Second Death Star, the Executor was able to escape destruction and led the fleet in escaping while abandong the others to their fate.
