The Mergansar-class cruiser is a heavy (role and armament) warship in the service of the Caspian Democratic Union. It epitomizes the modern Caspian Navy for its multi-role capability, its robustness, and powerful balance of offensive and defensive weaponry. While originally cast into the mold of battlewagon and carrier-group escort vessel, this class' role has been completely revamped by a much more strategically sound Caspian Crest (with Thomas Mahon at its head). Typical deployment now sees "Mergs" acting in a variety of roles from lead elements of task groups (such as Task Groups H or J) or as second-tier combatants when teamed with the new Admiral Roj-class battleships.
