MarsGuard Powell Class Light Cruiser Class History The Powell class is actually the EA's Oracle class, Delta model export cruiser, modified for MarsGuard use. The interceptors were removed, as per conditions set by the EA for MarsGuard ships (all ships were to have interceptors removed and replaced. Interceptors on bases could stay and be serviced by EA personel). The weapons wer a mix of the usual Mars weapons suite, and the hangar embarked two shuttles and two Enforcers. The two ships of the Powell class entered service in 2264. The MGSC Powell was heavily damaged by Drakh in 2267, while the MGSC Wallace was almost destroyed. While both ships were being repaired, Mars acquired the three Hamilton class ships to supplement the Powells. Both classes coexisted after the Powells were repaired. Powell Class SCS
