History
Led Imperial forces in an attack on the New Republic supply platform Dakinam, in the Meridian Cluster. Attempted to capture various disabled Imperial and New Republic craft, including starfighters of both sides, and the corvette Bureas. Republic Shield reinforcements arrived to challenge the vessel’s assault force, preventing the capture operations, but were unable to prevent the vessel from laying waste to the supply platform. Withdrew from the engagement when the Strike Cruiser Kayak arrived to reinforce Republic Shield forces battling with Imperial forces. (RgF301)
Disabled with shields down while receiving supplies of repair crews, starfighters, foodstuff, equipment, and crew. Undercover Republic Shield reconnaissance forces surveyed the resupply location provided by captured Imperial pilots, in preparation for a Republic Shield strike mission, which was launched as soon as the location was confirmed. Was unable to execute much in the way of defences, as the vessel had combat systems offline, and so relied on standing defences led by the Strike Cruiser Thunderbolt to protect it from the Republic Shield forces attack. The defenders failed. Destroyed by Republic Shield forces. (RgF302)
A Republic Shield undercover reconnaissance mission, using an Imperial starfighter captured in a previous battle with the Desperado revealed that the vessel was part of a larger task force, led by the Star Destroyer Deathbringer, stationed at asteroid base Chasm in a remote asteroid cluster in the Dotani Sector, not far from the Binaural Sector. This task force was discovered to be involved with an apparent pirate force, suspected to be Imperial forces undercover. (RgF303)
