Configuration

Main Article: Sovereign-class Explorer

The Lafayette is a fairly stock standard Sovereign-class. The only notable difference is a slight variation in where her engineering deck sits. The initial design but it on decks 11-13, but it was later determined that the power flow was more easily controlled if it was lowered to decks 14-17. She boasts the usual assortment of diplomatic chambers, meeting rooms, science labs, med bays, and armaments that are standard of the class, and is generally ready for any assignment. The Auxiliary Craft load out was slightly altered by Commodore Cromwell to be adaptive to the various types of situations that could arise in The Triangle.
