Overview:

The Sklabos, pronounced sklävos, class corvette serves as a heavy resupply ship. Sklabos means slave in Byzantine Greek, and the name aptly describes the ship's function. The first ship was designed when Clan Wolf's Dreadnought was seen to have a cargo deficiency.

Until recently, the Sklabos was not used for the function it was designed for. When the CW Dreadnought was finally finished in 3052, it was mothballed, and this made the Sklabos' function in Clan Wolf's navy limited. The Sklabos class does not mount any Dropship collars, so the only function it could be used for is patrol duties, an assignment it was never designed for. Instead of maintaining a ship that would be operating outside of specifications, the two ships were loaned to other Clans.

The CW Chaos was loaned to Clan Diamond Shark to assist moving salvage from Tukayyid back to the Clan home worlds after their military was shattered in the epic battle. The CW Anarchy was loaned to Clan Snow Raven in return for repairing the CW Dire Wolf years earlier. As a result, by the time the ships were returned to Clan Wolf in 3064, Clan Snow Raven had built three copies of the ship. Clan Diamond Shark liked the design so much that they bought two of the ships from Clan Snow Raven.

The Sklabos is fairly well armed for a ship its size, but it is not very fast. It carries 10 small craft to transfer its cargo between ships, but it does not carry any fighters. Its armament is mainly geared toward antifighter weaponry, which helps make up for the CW Dreadnought's near lack of them.
