| It was originally an Imperial vessel, part of the Star Destroyer ''Deathbringer''’s task force.

| The ''Apostate'' attempted to defect to RS forces during their campaign against the ''Deathbringer'''s task force, but was pursued by an Imperial force intending to reclaim the vessel, led by the Frigate ''Daveen II''. The transport ''Sigma'' arrived before RS forces could arrive to defend the vessel, and the ''Sigma'' deployed a field of ion cannon-equipped mines. RS forces led by the Dreadnaught ''[[End of Days]]'' arrived to defend the vessel from the pursuing reclamation force, in an attempt to assist the vessel in escaping to defended RS space. Despite the assistance of RS forces, the Frigate ''Daveen II'' arrived and directly engaged the vessel and disabled it. A boarding party onboard the escort shuttle ''Omega'' attempted to board and capture the vessel, however RS forces destroyed the capture ship before the operation could be executed. The corvette ''Apollo'' arrived with a repair crew, and set about repairing the vessel to continue its flight. RS forces defended the repair operation until its completion. The vessel then continued on its run to the hyperspace point, however the Escort Carrier ''Nebula'' reinforced the Imperial attack force, and led Imperial forces in an attempt to destroy the vessel. RS reinforcements arrived in the form of the Calamari Cruiser ''Stingray'', which proved an effective counter to the ''Nebula''. Both the Frigate ''Daveen II'' and the Escort Carrier ''Nebula'' were defeated in the engagement. The vessel finally reached its exit vector, and made the jump to hyperspace safely, while RS forces covered its exit from the area. (RgF308)

| Arrived at a meeting place, where negotiations between defecting forces aboard the vessel were to take place with a RS representative aboard the Interdictor ''Raging Dragon''. Arrived to discover another Strike Cruiser posing as the ''Apostate'', and alerted RS forces to the deception, as the interloping craft was in fact the Strike Cruiser ''Dimoran'', broadcasting a fake transponder signal. Joined with RS forces in attacking the ''Dimoran'', destroying the vessel and securing the area enough for the vessel to begin docking operations with the ''Raging Dragon'', while the Dreadnaught ''[[End of Days]]'' guarded the area. Docked with the ''Raging Dragon'', and commenced negotiations with General Sconn. Imperial reinforcements led by the Frigate ''Pestilence'' and backed by the Strike Cruiser ''Banton'' arrived to continue the Imperial attack on the meeting craft, targeting the vessel and the ''Raging Dragon''. The Dreadnaught ''[[End of Days]]'' led defence forces against the Imperial interlopers, successfully protecting the vessel until the meeting was concluded, and led RS forces in the destruction of the Imperial vessels while the ''Raging Dragon'' and the vessel escaped into hyperspace. (RgF309)

| Part of interdiction operation led by the Interdictor ''Raging Dragon'' against an Imperial force led by the Strike Cruiser ''Valorum I'' which was attempting to reinforce ''Chasm'' base. The ''Raging Dragon'' engaged its interdiction field and brought the Imperial forces out of hyperspace prematurely near an asteroid field, keeping the Imperial task force secured in the combat zone while the vessel led defecting Imperial and RS forces against the ''Valorum I''’s force. The Frigate ''Ascension'' flanked the force from the other side. The entire Imperial forces were neutralised. (RgF310)

| Reinforced the Interdictor ''Raging Dragon'', which had trapped the Star Destroyer ''Deathbringer'' in its interdiction field as the Star Destroyer made its escape from the Star Destroyer ''Wyvern''’s assault on ''Chasm'' base. Imperial and RS forces were pounding the ''Raging Dragon'' and the ''Deathbringer'', respectively, when the vessel arrived. The arrival effectively countered the presence of Imperial reinforcements led by the Dreadnaught ''Serpentine''. Took up a flanking position on one side of ''Serpentine'' while the Frigate ''Horizon'' moved to pin the Dreadnaught down on the opposite flank. The ''Serpentine'' was overwhelmed by the ''Horizon'' and the vessel, while RS forces pounded the Star Destroyer ''Deathbringer'' into submission before overwhelming and destroying it. (RgF312)

| The vessel participated in the Battle of Blerthmore, and later became part of the small group of ships in the [[Greeop Defence Force]] left behind in the [[Greeop Sector]] to hold RS territories together while the [[Subterrel Strike Force]] waged war abroad.
