The Mellieha is a "Ranseur"-class Outcast Dreadnought that has been contracted for a short period of time by the Cadiz Cartel, and is currently belonging to the Maltese Navy. The Mellieha is currently tasked with the defense of the Omicron Alpha system. Her motto is "Qui audet adipiscitur" ("Who Dares Wins").
History
The Mellieha has been commissioned by the Outcasts, and began building her in 824 A.S.. In a surprising amount of time, the Mellieha has been built in less than 2 years and joined active service right after its production. A few weeks after its deployment, the Cadiz Cartel contracted the Mellieha as part of the rear guard. Although the Mellieha has not been actively used in combat, but rather as a deterrent for potential intruders of the Omicron Alpha system.
After the inevitable disbandment of the Cadiz Cartel, the binding contract between the Mellieha crew and the Cadiz Cartel was eventually broken, and the Mellieha was reallocated to the Maltese Navy, as part of the guard defending Planet Malta and the Omicron Alpha system.
As of 829 A.S., the Mellieha was brought once again under the Cuatroce banner, and is currently operating under the Cartel's command and as its flagship.
Overview
The developement of the Mellieha was under one condition: less is more. Therefore; the key element of the Dreadnought Mellieha is the very low amount of personnel required to run the ship at its maximum potential, whereas in other Ranseur-class Dreadnoughts, would not even be sufficient as skeleton crew. New piloting algorithms, automated path finding systems, targeting software developed jointly between the Lane Hackers, the Outcasts, and stolen technology from various groups of interests such as The Order, The Core, and even Liberty - but this information is neither confirmed nor denied. These were integrated into the Dreadnought. It also got an dead man's switch, which is an even more enhanced automated system that allows a crew of less than 10 crew members to effectively run the ship at maximum capacity, but is not only experimental, but testing showed a success rate of the system coming online of 33.333%. It is, nonetheless, integrated alongside the extensive augmentations.
This does not come without any inconvenience. Right after being deployed, critical flaws in the hull of the Mellieha has been found, and serious lack of armor at certain vital sections of the ship were found as well. Those were taken care of multiple months after being deployed, as the Maltese Navy deemed it as "unimportant for the moment".

The Pasquale Paoli, formerly the RNS Tresserre is an experimental salvaged Battlecruiser, under the hands of Unione Corse-affiliated Maquisards.
History
Built somewhere in the 800 – 810 A.S., the Pasquale Paoli was known as the Battlecruiser Tresserre, and was part of the Council forces. As the wars continued, the Battlecruiser Tresserre’s crew mutinied, and the Battlecruiser’s armament was neutralized by its crew. After the end of the mutiny and subsequent trial of its crew, with most of them sent to working camps, the Battlecruiser Tresserre, with its armament no more functioning, and due to the lack of free engineers or even free slots in the Council shipyards, the Tresserre was sequestered and abandoned somewhere in the Maures Nebula, in the Provence system. A few years later, a Confederate squadron discovered the abandoned yet intact Tresserre in the Maures Nebula. It was later towed away to the Champagne system for scraping and recycling.
Overview
The Pasquale Paoli was barely but surely scrapped, with many critical points of armor removed, targeting systems, ammunition and gravity systems removed. With the help of the Maquis, the Pasquale Paoli recovered most of its armor, and onboard systems, but the artificial gravity systems are functional only on vital places inside the ship, with
