Minbari Federation Sharn Class Assault Cruiser Sharn Class History The Sharn is the Minbari’s heavy assault ship. It is capable of transporting an entire division of Minbari ground troops, and supporting their attack on the ground. It also has two large docking clamps to allow the smaller Torotha Assault Frigates to hard dock and transfer troops. It was thought at one time the Sharn was a Sharlin variant, but EA Intelligence soon learned their mistake when a fleeing intelligence ship came under fire from a Sharn launching its ground troops.
