History:
As the war with the Wraith started it was realized that troops were going to have to be sent down to fight on planets. Sending troops through the gates were problems do to defenses setup around the gates. To solve this as well as sending ships to supply different worlds the Tauri decided to bring back the Prometheus design. Cheap and easy to produce the Prometheus class allowed the transport of troops and supplies to where ever they were needed without having to use up any of the available combat ships. The Prometheus class ship also serves as a command cruiser when leading small groups of frigates and destroyers.
