    The Republic Shield Strike Cruiser Hammer of Justice disguised as a pirate vessel during a capture mission on an Imperial supply route in the Havion system on the outskirts of the Osiris Sector.

    History

    Delivered Republic Shield forces disguised as pirates to the Imperial supply route near the planets Havion III and IV before withdrawing to beyond the engagement zone to prevent Imperial forces seeing trough the deception. Republic Shield forces successfully disabled the convoy freighters of the Imperial Logistics Corps, defeating the defensive forces launched from them. Launched the shuttle Animus, and the transports Arrow Head and Rye Catcher, which micro-jumped into the combat zone and captured the freighters. Once the freighters had all been seized, the boarding parties jumped out of the system and returned to the vessel. The vessel then jumped back in system to collect Republic Shield forces, their mission completed successfully. (R2F900)

    Led Republic Shield forces disguised as pirates against an Imperial convoy transporting stolen Republic Shield material. Co-ordinated the attempt to disable and capture the Imperial convoy, however Imperial forces led by the Modified Frigate Seraph entered the combat zone and ambushed the vessel, engaging it directly. The Seraph and its forces overwhelmed the vessel and its defences, forcing it to withdraw from the combat zone. However the Modified Frigate Seraph was not deterred, and maintained a close pursuit, bombarding the vessel without mercy. Republic Shield forces rallied to protect the vessel, causing the destruction of the Imperial frigate. The vessel successfully escaped from the ambush; however the Imperial convoy managed to escape from the system. (R2F902)
