The Premier Fleet and the Bluejay Fleet moved quickly through space.
Every vessel consisted of fairly modern first-class starships that had been built in the last decade.
All of them were equipped with superdrives that had been fortified with as much phasewater as the drive engineers could get away with. The combined properties of a warp drive and FTL drive enabled even the larger and more sluggish hulls to course through the higher dimensions at a blistering pace.
The high-quality materials and technical specifications applied to the superdrives also made them remarkably stable and resistant against interference, interdiction and natural gravitic tides.
They had little concerns about getting ambushed or delayed in their journey.
The lack of sub-standard support ships helped a lot with keeping the fleets fast and agile.
