Description
B-12 Bacta Transport forward Deck Plan
The B-12 was a 238-meter long starship dedicated to bacta transport. Its hulls was a spinoff of the Lancer-class frigate also produced by Kuat Drive Yards. The ship carried 26 crew, 6 passengers, and 600,000 metric tons of bacta in sixteen pressurized spheres[1] with controlled temperature to keep the bacta from spoiling.
History
The B-12 bacta transport was commissioned by the Galactic Empire after the Battle of Yavin to transport safely bacta. It soon became one of the most popular bacta transport class.[1]
Sometime before 1 ABY,[2] a B-12 transport, the Suveron, was destroyed in the Endor system, releasing half million tons of bacta in space. Although it was not suitable for medicinal use anymore, the bacta survived the vacuum of space and generated a large pocket of space gas later known as the Linear Miasma.[3]

- ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
