A WarMaster was a capital ship classification used by the Grysk warlike species. The Grysks used two classes of WarMasters, the Shatter-class and the StoneCrusher-class. The Shatter-class was three to four times larger than a Kilji war cruiser and around the same size as a Chiss Groundlion man-of-war. The Shatter-class WarMasters were equipped with engines and a hyperdrive. Their armament included spectrum laser, missiles, and dibber missiles. The StoneCrusher-class WarMasters were equipped with engines and a hyperdrive. They were armed with spectrum lasers and missiles.[1]
Around 18 BBY,[2] the Shatter-class WarMasters FateSpinner and HopeBreaker served as part of the Grysk operative "Jixtus"'s fleet. The Armageddon, the Emery, and the SkySweep were StoneCrusher-class WarMasters that also served as part of the Grysk's fleet.[1]
