History
Launched in 3052 and originally conceived as an escort vessel for the Leviathan class of WarShips,[1] as of 3061 the Conqueror-class carrier Conqueror was a WarShip within the Clan Snow Raven touman and was serving as the CSR Conqueror, one of five WarShips that made up the Brim Naval Assault Star.[2]
The Conqueror continued to serve in the Brim Naval Assault Star throughout the 3060s alongside the Aegis-class heavy cruiser CSR Black Justice, the Potemkin-class cruiser CSR Snowflake, the Congress-class frigate CSR Magpie and the Whirlwind-class destroyer CSR William Adams.[3]
By 3079, having survived both the Wars of Reaving and the Jihad, the Conqueror was serving in the Conqueror Naval Star alongside the Cameron-class battlecruiser CSR Kerensky's Hope, the Sovetskii Soyuz-class heavy cruiser CSR Storm Crow, the Thera-class carrier CSR Raven's Nest, the Aegis-class CSR Lord Death and the William Adams.[4]
As of 3145, it still served in the Conqueror Naval Star, which was of largely the same composition as in 3079 (minus the William Adams).[5]
After the Word of Blake invasion of the Inner Sphere in 3152 the Conqueror Naval Star found itself on the run from overwhelming Blakist forces. A combining of the Snow Raven Beta and Gamma Galaxies was discovered and struck by the invaders. In the chaos the decision was made to take refuge in Federated Suns space and seek aid from Clan Sea Fox.
However, Clan Sea Fox attacked on behalf of the Word of Blake. In a sacrificial move both the Kerensky's Hope and Storm Crow fought on while the rest of Stormhawk Galaxy escaped. Still part of the Conqueror Naval Star, the Lord Death, Conqueror, and Raven's Nest serve under Galaxy Commander Dominic McKenna in the fight against the Word of Blake.[6][7]
