Tragedy in the corporate sector – the senior design team for shipwright, Corellia StarDrive have died when what appears to be a malfunction in the hyper drive for their ILH-KK Citadel-class civilian light frigate caused an explosion.

This comes at an unfortunate time – the venerated shipwright has been in talks for a merger with their chief rival, Corellian Engineering Corporation.
