[edit] History
The 1,000-meter long Mark I battlecruisers were built for the Bulwark Fleet, which the Techno Union used to escape the blockade of Foerost during the Clone Wars. In response, the Galactic Republic commissioned their fleet of Victory-class Star Destroyers prior to schedule to protect Sector 0.[1]
This design was the basis for later models, which were fielded in the Galactic Civil War.[5] In 5 ABY, a Mk.I Bulwark formed part of the New Republic's Rapid Response Task Force, a fleet of ships sent to combat the forces of Lord Shadowspawn on Mindor.[4]
[edit] Behind the scenes
Although The New Essential Chronology claims this class was introduced during the Clone Wars, Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor claims it predates the Clone Wars.
