Imperial vessel. Part of the Super Star Destroyer Blade’s task force.

History

Part of Imperial force led by the Star Destroyer Predator in an ambush on a Republic Shield convoy near a volcanic planet with asteroid ring (#95). The vessel prevented the convoy from escaping from the combat zone by activating its interdiction field, while the Star Destroyer Predator and the Victory Star Destroyer Pantheon launched an assault against the convoy and its escorts. Republic Shield reinforcements led by the Star Destroyer Liberator and backed up by the Escort Carrier Krayt aided the convoy, protecting it and harassing the vessel, forcing it to withdraw from the engagement. With the interdiction field deactivated, the convoy escaped into hyperspace, and the Predator and Pantheon withdrew from the engagement, possibly to follow and escort the battered vessel to safety. Withdrew before the arrival of the Super Star Destroyer Blade which prevented Republic Shield forces from pursuing the Imperial task force while its mere presence was sufficient to drive the Republic Shield forces from the combat zone. (IBG503)

Part of the Imperial task force led by the Super Star Destroyer Blade stationed near the blue cloud planet (#47) Theseus in the Oberon system. Scanned by Republic Shield reconnaissance force. Attempted to prevent the reconnaissance force from completing its mission, but failed, allowing the Republic Shield force to escape with its reconnaissance data. Withdrew from the staging point with the rest of the Blade’s task force. (IBG506)
