Imperial Lines
Imperial Lines is a major interstellar shipping firm (and rival to Tukera Lines). Despite covering most of the entire Imperium, its assets are not large enough that it is considered a megacorporation. The company was formed in the decades after the Civil War with major investments from the Imperial family.
- Not to be confused with Imperiallines.
Description (Portfolio)
Imperial Lines vessels are very secure and of high quality.
Although sometimes confused with one or the other, Imperial Lines has nothing whatsoever to do with any one of several minor shipping lines that use close variations of its name, such as Imperiallines, Imperium Lines, Imperial Liners, etc. Such names are popular, but only the ships of Imperial Lines carries the stylized 'I' in a starburst.

History & Background (Dossier)
Despite covering most of the entire Imperium, its assets are not large enough that it is considered a megacoporation, but recent growth suggests that it will soon achieve that status.
- In the Marches Imperial Lines is especially well entrenched on Mora, where the company has co-financed a major space station with Delgado Trading and Tukera Lines.
Worlds & Sectors (Astrography)
It mainly serves the major routes, although vessels are sometimes encountered on minor routes serving a number of contracts to the Imperial military and political services.
- As a result, its ships can be encountered even in backwater systems carrying ambassadors, resupplying military installations, or carrying out government-related tasks.
