Due to the sheer number of Triumph hulls available, Oslo StarDrives decided to not just decomission hulls, but over conversions built to customer specifications. Any existing Triumph hull can be brought to Oslo and they will follow the legal requirements for decommissioning it, and then build it back up into an Armed Merchant Cruiser.
This program has proven to be very popular.
There is less a design doctrine and more a general outline for the class. It builds on the Triumph's strengths and builds it into a very compitent patrol and escort vessel.
Customers were encouraged to customize the base ship to meet their needs, meaning no two Glorious classes were exactly the same.
The Glorious class was billed as an Armed Merchant Cruiser, and served very well as one. They were excellent patrol ships, even with the removed weapons and armor, which ended up just making the ship more agile.
This class gave us an excuse to build a Triumph-based civilian ship for a short story for the Bedlam crew.
