Description/Overview:
            The Ogre Mark-III was the Earth Federal Space Marines version of the Neo-Hebrew "Star Forge" refit/upgrade of the venerable Ogre-class family of troopships.  This class-refit was designed for the Outer Sphere war of 2185, after which all production was ended.  Existing stores of Ogre Mark-IIIs were used as reserve vessels during the initial years of the 2nd Interplanetary War of the 2190s, but all were decommissioned after the war ended.
