==History==
Six ''[[Avatar (WarShip class)|Avatar]]''-class cruisers survived the [[Amaris Civil War]] and followed [[General]] [[Aleksandr Kerensky]] on the [[Operation EXODUS|Exodus]]; all six ''Avatars'' were subjected to an extensive refurbishment and upgrade program in the thirty-first century to produce the new ''[[Liberator (WarShip class)|Liberator]]''-class cruiser,<ref name="TRO:3057Rp152">''Technical Readout: 3057 Revised'', p. 152: "Liberator"</ref> including the '''''Jerome Winson'''''.

As of [[3059]], the ''Jerome Winson'' was serving as the CWS ''Jerome Winson'' in the [[Clan Wolf Touman|Clan Wolf ''touman'']] and was acting either as an escort vessel between the worlds of the Clan Wolf Occupation Zone and the [[Clan Homeworlds]] or as a patrol vessel within the Homeworlds.<ref name="FM:CCp139">''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 139: "Naval Assets"</ref> The ''Jerome Winson'' remained an active part of the Wolf ''touman'' for the next decade<ref name="FM:Up52">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 52: "Naval Assets"</ref> and into the chaos of the [[Jihad]].

The ''Jerome Winson'' was one of a handful of Clan Wolf WarShips confirmed to have survived the Jihad.<ref name="FR:Cp21">''Field Report: Clans'', p. 21: "Fleet Assets"</ref> During the [[Dark Age]] the ''Jerome Winson'' remained an active part of the Wolf ''touman'', although maintaining their diminished WarShip fleet remained a continual problem for the Wolves due to their lack of shipyards; fortunately, the Wolves were able to contract with [[Clan Sea Fox]] to have some work done at the Sea Fox shipyards. By [[3145]], the ''Jerome Winson'' was one of five active WarShips in the Clan Wolf Naval Star, serving alongside a sister ship, the [[Victoria Ward (Individual Liberator-class WarShip)|CWS ''Victoria Ward'']], the ''[[Cameron (WarShip class)|Cameron]]''-class heavy cruiser [[Bloody Fang|CWS ''Bloody Fang'']], the ''[[Sovetskii Soyuz (WarShip class)|Sovetskii Soyuz]]''-class heavy cruiser [[Dire Wolf (Individual Sovetskii Soyuz-class WarShip)|CWS ''Dire Wolf'']] and the Wolf flagship, the ''[[Congress]]''-class frigate [[Rogue (Individual Congress-class WarShip)|CWS ''Rogue'']].<ref name="FM:3145p161">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 161: "Clan Wolf Fleet"</ref>

When Clan Wolf abandoned its Occupation Zone and relocated, conquering a swath of worlds on the border between the [[Free Worlds League]] and the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] to form the new [[Wolf Empire]], the ''Jerome Winson'' and the other WarShips of the Clan Wolf Naval Star were largely conspicuous by their absence; while the newly-established Wolf Empire contained nothing more by way of shipyards than their former Occupation Zone did, the ''Jerome Winson'' was no worse off for support and maintenance facilities than she had been before—save that the Sea Fox shipyards were further away than they had been.<ref name="FM:3145p161"/>
