History
Led Imperial forces in an attack upon the Abandon forces’ main fleet, led by the Strike Cruiser Nightshade, which was seemingly being reinforced by a Republic Shield task force led by the Star Destroyer Prometheus. In truth the Republic Shield forces were preparing a retaliatory strike against the Abandon forces, who they believed had supplied information to Imperial forces about the location and status of the Prometheus, which led to an ambush of the craft. The attack led by the vessel interrupted the imminent battle between Abandon and Republic Shield forces, who both turned against the Imperial attackers, all hostilities between the factions put aside for the upcoming battle. Led the main Imperial attack force, while the Escort Carrier Bertha danced around the enemy fleet, periodically launching Imperial forces and then entering hyperspace briefly before returning to deploy more forces to completely surround the Abandon and Republic Shield forces. However, the Imperial forces were eventually beaten back and defeated, effectively sabotaging any hostilities the Imperial forces had hoped to spawn between the two allies. Destroyed by Abandon and Republic Shield forces. (R2F805)
