History
Part of Imperial ambush force in the gravity well of the purple gas planet Morba against Republic Shield forces. Arrived after the corvette Snoop had been destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (R2F606)
Led Imperial forces in attacking the Star Destroyer Prometheus and the Strike Frigate Idiot's Array. Was unable to prevent the Idiot’s Array from escaping the planet’s gravity well, and was unable to destroy the Star Destroyer Prometheus due to the arrival of Republic Shield reinforcements in the form of the Star Destroyer Liberator. Exchanged blows with the Liberator, but was unable to prevent the destruction of the two accompanying Frigates Sulphur and Maverick. (R2F607)
As the battle wore on, the ambush was shown to be a failure. The vessel attempted to pull out of the purple gas planet Morba’s gravity well and escape, but not even the arrival of reinforcements in the form of the Dreadnaught Escar and the Strike Cruiser Taroon could prevent the Star Destroyer Prometheus’s forces from exacting retribution for the trap. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (R2F608)
