The Emissary is not a true fighting vessel, but a transport for Water Caste dignitaries, Tau commanders and Ethereals. Despite its size, the Emissary is well equipped and perfectly capable of looking after itself against all but the largest capital ships.
These ships are becoming common within the Tau Empire and often rove out into the Empire's fringes on diplomatic missions to the Tau's neighbours. They are also used as large merchant vessels and are becoming something of a workhorse within Tau space.
The size of the Emissary is roughly the 1/4 of an Imperial Emperor Class Battleship (as seen in Fire Warrior game).
