Unknown to the Imperials, the shuttle was taken by Lothal rebel operative Sabine Wren who specialized in explosives and was working alongside her old friend, the bounty hunter Ketsu Onyo, Sabine devised a plan to escape by overloading the shuttles' hyperdrive while escaping aboard the Shadow Caster. Arriving in orbit above Garel the Imperials found the aforementioned transport docked with the Shadow Caster opening a channel with the ships, the Imperials demanded them to surrender and prepare for boarding. The command cruiser's destruction allowed the rebel cell to make their run and drop the relief supplies before jumping into hyperspace once again.ДЄbove the planet Garel, a command cruiser was on patrol in the system until they received word of a theft of a shuttle from Garel City Spaceport and was deployed to investigate. The Imperial blockade was successful in driving off the first run of Phoenix Squadron, but was broken in the second run when the rebel fleet was joined by the prototype B-wing fighter, which possessed a beam cannon strong enough to pierce the shielding and armored plating of one of the blockades' three Arquitens-classes. Later on, during the blockade of Ibaar, at least three of them worked alongside a pair of Gozanti-class cruisers under the command of Imperial Security Bureau Agent Alexsandr Kallus to preventing Phoenix Squadron from delivering relief supplies to the starving Ibaarans. Several command cruisers also responded to attack by Phoenix Cell on an Imperial convoy. It was successfully infiltrated by a team of Lothal-based rebels known as the Spectres to discover the location of Kanan Jarrus, a Jedi who survived the destruction of the Jedi Order at the end of the Clone Wars. The vessels also featured a detention block.ДЄbout four years before the Battle of Yavin, after Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin ordered the destruction of the planet Lothal's Imperial Communications Center, the local Imperial forces used an Arquitens-class command cruiser known as the Tellstar to capture and relay information from surface courier droids brought aboard. The vessel also had entry ways along the side and near the front of the ship where Imperial jumptroopers could be deployed. Additional changes made to the command variant also included the removal of the side-mounted turbolaser batteries, which were replaced with eight escape pods.

The Arquitens-class command cruiser could dock a Sentinel-class landing craft, two TIE/ln space superiority starfighters, two TIE/sa bombers, three TIE/IN interceptors, or two TIE/D Defenders inside its forward prongs. It was protected by deflector shields and equipped with a hyperdrive. Measuring 325 meters in length, it was armed with four quad laser turrets, concussion missile launchers and a tractor beam projector.

Although it might have looked like a simple repaint of the light cruiser, the command cruiser had subtle updates in its design, such as an enclosed triangular plating on the engines and the shape of its bridge tower. The Arquitens-class command cruiser was a reworking of the Arquitens-class light cruiser manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards for the Imperial Navy, who used the vessel as a communications ship.
