PBF 101

Apocalypse

Led Imperial forces in an assault against the planet Dar'telis I. The vessel reportedly orbitally bombarded several major cities on the planet’s surface. The vessel withdrew from the area when Republic Shield reconnaissance forces arrived, bound for parts unknown and handing co-ordination of Imperial defences to the Frigate Thorn. The vessel’s departure allowed Republic Shield reconnaissance forces to evade Imperial defences and escape with their surveillance data, after destroying a number of Tyrannian vessels containing Imperial materiel.

Emancipator

Travelled to a rendezvous point near the planet Dar’telis I, where a refugee convoy was being escorted by Republic Shield forces to the vessel. However Imperial forces led by the Star Destroyer Emissary arrived to intercept the convoy and prevent it from reaching the vessel. Republic Shield reinforcements forces helped bolster the escorting Republic Shield forces, and the convoy successfully entered the vessel’s hangar bay. Imperial reinforcements led by the Frigate Harasser II soon arrived to launch a second prong of the Imperial attack. Republic Shield forces battled with the Imperial forces while the vessel weathered the Imperial assaults. The Calamari Cruiser Aeneas finally arrived to reinforce the vessel, which had been severely damaged in the assault. Imperial forces temporarily withdrew from the combat zone. (PBF103)

Harasser II

Led Imperial reinforcements to support Imperial forces led by the Star Destroyer Emissary in the assault against Republic Shield forces attempting to escort Tyrannian survivors to the Star Destroyer Emancipator just beyond the planet Dar'telis I. Republic Shield forces were contesting the Imperial assault, but the vessel led reinforcements in intensifying the Imperial attack. Despite inflicting serious damage to the Emancipator, the Tyrannian evacuees survived the battle and entered the Emancipator’s hangar. However, before the Emancipator could be overwhelmed by Imperial forces, the Calamari Cruiser Aeneas arrived to bolster Republic Shield defences, preventing Imperial forces from destroying the escapees. (PBF103)

Aeneas

Reinforced Republic Shield forces led by the Star Destroyer Emancipator which were being assaulted by Imperial forces led by the Star Destroyer Emissary at a rendezvous point near the planet Dar'telis I. A convoy of refugees had been escorted from the planet Dar'telis I and had successfully entered the Star Destroyer Emancipator’s hangar, however Imperial reinforcements led by the Frigate Harasser II had intensified the Imperial assault, intent on destroying the Emancipator itself. The arrival of the vessel thwarted those plans, lending assistance to the beleaguered Republic Shield forces, who rallied to it and drove the remaining Imperial forces back. (PBF103)

Emancipator

Awaited a convoy of repair craft to deliver work crews and equipment to the vessel, as the vessel had suffered serious damage from the previous engagement with Imperial forces. The Calamari Cruiser Aeneas supplied Republic Shield forces which maintained area security for the vessel while the convoy travelled to the vessel. Imperial forces attempted to hamper the repair efforts, targeting both the repair convoy and the vessel itself. Imperial forces were finally reinforced by the Star Destroyer Emissary, which led a devastating assault that the Republic Shield defending forces were barely able to contain. However, the repair crews and equipment restored the vessel to operational status, and the vessel led Republic Shield forces in repulsing Imperial forces from the combat zone. (PBF104)

Aeneas

Oversaw the repairs of the damaged Star Destroyer Emancipator. (PBF104)

Emissary

Reinforced Imperial forces fighting against the Star Destroyer Emancipator, which was heavily damaged from a previous encounter with the vessel, and which was awaiting repairs. Republic Shield forces defended the Emancipator and thwarted Imperial forces from inflicting irreparable damage to the Star Destroyer.

The repaired Star Destroyer Emancipator then led Republic Shield forces in repulsing the Imperial attack force. (PBF104)

Tiosip

Transported TIE starfighters to the combat zone near the planet Dar’telis I. Led Imperial forces against the Star Destroyer Emancipator, which had suffered extensive damage from a previous Imperial assault, and co-ordinated the assault against repair craft that were en route to the Emancipator.

Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (PBF104

Tiacin

Part of Imperial forces led by the corvette Tiosip that attempted to disrupt the repair and resupply operation of the Star Destroyer Emancipator, which was heavily damaged and stranded near the planet Dar’telis I.

Nich'Tah

Refitted with a ramming device. Led Republic Shield and Tyrannian forces in a retaliatory strike against Imperial forces led by the Star Destroyer Death Strike stationed near the planet Dar’telis I. Imperial forces attempted to defend against the attack force, Republic Shield and Tyrannian forces dealt a savage blow, routing all Imperial forces, destroying the Star Destroyer Death Strike, and destroying the Imperial outpost containing Imperial personnel, equipment, slave traders, food supplies, and All Terrain Armoured Transports. Successfully destroyed the Imperial occupying forces present near the planet Dar’telis I, with the assistance of Republic Shield forces. Worthy to note that the vessel destroyed the Imperial outpost in a most spectacular fashion, by physically ramming it into oblivion. Sustained heavy damage but escaped, leaving Republic Shield and Tyrannian forces to destroy the Star Destroyer Death Strike. (PBF105)

Death Strike

Stationed at the Imperial outpost near the planet Dar’telis I when an attack force consisting of Tyrannian and Republic Shield forces led by the Frigate Nich'Tah arrived and laid siege to the outpost. Led Imperial forces against the assault force, but was unable to prevent the outpost from being razed by Republic Shield and Tyrannian forces, especially the Frigate Nich’Tah, which physically rammed the entire outpost into oblivion, destroying all onboard Imperial personnel, equipment, slave traders, food supplies, and All Terrain Armoured Transports. Led a last-ditch attempt to crush the attacking forces, but failed, falling in the battle. The vessel’s destruction sealed the fate for all remaining Imperial forces stationed near Dar’telis I, as the vengeful Tyrannian faction and their Republic Shield allies massacred any remaining Imperial presence. Destroyed by Tyrannian and Republic Shield forces. (PBF105)

PBF 106

Raven

Delivered TIE starfighters and bombers to a combat zone near the planet Yridia IX, where Republic Shield and Yridian forces seemed to be meeting in unusual circumstances, with the Yridian shuttle Erutpac boarding the disabled shuttle Tactful while the Yridian escorts attempted to engage Republic Shield forces which, while evading, seemed to be doggedly avoiding attacking the hostile Yridian forces. In the confusion the vessels attempted to take advantage of the situation, co-ordinating the Imperial attack forces against Republic Shield forces, which were already under attack by Yridian forces. However the Yridian and Republic Shield forces both turned on the Imperial attack force, beating them back and bombarding the vessels, which fell under the combined assault. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (PBF106)
