First days of the "the Vengeance", 820 AS / 821 AS.
The Vengeance was constructed in the 9th of December 820 A.S on the Norfolk Shipyard. The construction of the ship had started in 5th of June 820 A.S and with 3000 of engineers working on it it took nearly 6 months to build it and eventually finish it. Ship parts were brought untouched. Ship has been made for a specific reason and that is to guard Liberty from its intruders and help Bretonia with the war.
First Commander of the Vengeance was Rodney Freeman. He was known who his ability to control a warship as well as to bring the balance back when it was needed. The ship was first time experimented in the 10th of December 820 A.S. The objective of this experimental flight was to confirm that the ship was in a good state and ready for combat. The Vengeance proven itself to be in a great shape and ready to get launched into space. The ship was finally launched into space in the 20th of December 820 A.S with objective to eliminate intruders in Liberty, defend Liberty from the Rheinland, defend Liberty from possible attack by Gallia and to help Bretonia in the war with Gallia. However in the 820 A.S Rheinland destroyed the Jump Gates leading to Hamburg system, preventing Liberty's attack on Rheinland.
821 AS was the year when the Vengeance started having a huge influence in Liberty, thus being successful at protecting it from all of the criminals that would attack Liberty. At the beginning of the 821 AS, the Vengeance was position in the New York, because of the common attacks by the Hellfire Legion, Rogues and Outcasts. The Vengeance was heavily damaged after the massive attack by the Hellfire Legion, having the Vengeance nearly destroyed. Luckly, The Hellfire Legion didn't have that many ships to finish the Vengeance off. Ship was immediately moved to Norfolk Shipyard where it was repairing for 3 weeks. The main power reactor took heavy damage, with the life support system nearly down. Few weapons were taken off by the torpedos that were headed at them. 5000 engineers managed to fix this ship again and ready to roll it out. Rodney's act against the Hellfire Legion decreased Legion's activity in the New York. New York was still under attacks by the Hellfire Legion, but not in that big numbers as it used to be. The criminal activity in the New York was decreased, because the opponents knew they need something bigger in order to act and be successful. At the end of the 821 AS, The Vengeance was ordered to move to California. Ship was successfuly moved to that system, again to have the same objectives as it had in the New York, with an addition to prepare itself to help the Bretonia with the war against the Gallia. The hostile activity in the California was increased so the ship is expected to have a lot of conflicts in that system.

The hostile activity in the California was increased so the ship is expected to have a lot of conflicts in that system.
822 AS. The Vengeance's presence in that system slightly reduced hostile activity in that sector. It was expected to be like that with having a skilled Commander together with a strong warship. Hostile ships kept attacking The Vengeance how the days were passing, but not in success. This warship was pretty successful in this, but the table suddently turned around. What has happened? This time it's not the criminals in the Liberty that done, it was the Gallic forces who reached the California system. Such force isn't expected to do nothing, most of the Libertonian forces have moved to California to defend their own system. The Vengeance started patrolling around the Jump Gates out of which any point of time could jump a massive Gallic fleet. Liberty Navy patrolls have drastically increased in that system, bracing for impact. Liberty Navy forced were attacked nearly everyday, The Vengeance's presence helped with the Liberty Navy to decreate Gallic attacks. However, a single ship can't stop this masacre. Both sides were taking heavy hits, no winner so far. The attacks were decreased how the time was passing, both sides were exhausted to organize a massive attack on the opponent's side. There was a battle at the end of the 822 AS in which The Vengeace nearly got taken down. Battle was put on the top 15 list of the Humanity's biggest combats. Both sides were counting with about 15-20 heavy capital ship together with 50 other ships. The Vengeance managed to kill one of those heavy battleships so called as "Valor", assisted in 3 kills. Suddently The Vengeance was focused by nearly all of the enemy ships. Luckly, The Vengeance had Liberty Navy on its other side to stop this, leaving The Vengeance with 10% core health. There were multiple battles in which both sides lost, this battle won the Liberty Navy with few ships left counting The Vengeance. From that moment, Liberty Navy realized who they need to be prepared for and how hard it will be to make the enemy retreat.
Beginning of the 823 AS. In the 5th of January the Vengeance was fully repaired, luckly for the ship and the crew they had a great captain, Rodney, who managed to defend the California. However, that conflict with the Gallic Royal Navy certainly isn't the last one, Liberty Navy expects more fights with hope they're going to make the enemy retreat. Nothing but empty promises, Liberty Navy together with the Vengeance have started preparing themselves in order to do something against their currently real enemy, the Gallic Royal Navy.
Events in the California have decreased, creating a for The Vengeance to move to Leeds and help Bretonia with the Gallic Royal Navy. In the middle of 823 AS, the Vengeance finally arrived to New London, waited by the BAF forces. The Vengeance was preparing in the New London to attack Leeds with a massive fleet, containing both BAF and Liberty Navy. Both sides were well-organized and ready to step into leeds. As expected, few months later they have moved to Leeds to change the things, with a massive fleet. Gallic Royal Navy was already prepared, they've been expecting this to happen since they conquered the system.
Ending of the 823 AS. Forces have reached Leeds system, both were headed directly to the Planet Leeds. The Vengeance was right next to the BAF forces, expecting an attack from the GRN. As soon as they had reached Planet Leeds, a not that fleet of Gallic Navy was patrolling in that sector. Few moments later, a GRN fleet came from the direction of Stokes Mining station. Both sides were counting large numbers of ships, BAF didn't expect for the Gallic Royal navy to react this fast. The attack has begun. The Vengeance under commander by Rodney Freeman, managed to kill a GRN battlecruiser in the first hours of fighting. Both sides were losing large number of ships. Suddently, more GRN ships have come to assist their allied forces, making the BAF and LN outnumbered. That's the moment where the retreating begins, calling more BAF ships to stay at the jump hole in New London in case GRN starts following them. During the escape, few BAF warship were completely destroyed, while the Vengeance was trying to protect them. The Vengeance managed to take down a battleship, but being hit pretty hard, leaving The Vengeance with 60% left power core. The remaining ships managed to retreat to New London, being waited by a small BAF fleet at the Jump Hole. Most of the ships proceeded to the Southampton for fixes. The Vengeance was the first one who got prepared at the end of the 823 AS. Ship was fully repaired once again.
824 AS. The Vengeance was ordered to move itself to California, because they've received information from a spy that Gallic Royal Navy will soon attack California, again. The Vengeance had no other choice than to move again to California. In the middle of 824 AS, The Vengeance has come to California and started the patrol as soon as the ship came. The LN was already patrolling in that system and making a massive fleet to defend the California system. The Vengeance decided not to be too aggressive in this fight, because the repairs won't be that easy. As expected, a massive GRN fleet jumped out of the Cortez jump gate. LN was fully prepaired for this attack, so they engaged without any mercy. Few GRN capital ships were already taken downm while the Vengeance was shooting from a big distance the Heavy Mortars. The fight ended with LN losing only few capital ships. The victory was announced. The Vengeance was successful in defending the California, without taking any damage. The Vengeance was moved to the Planet Los Angeles, to be ready if the Gallic Royal Navy decides to attack the California again. The Vengeance has received a new Lieutenant Commander, Harrison Freeman, on the Planet Los Angeles on 10th of December 824 AS. The Vengeance is fully ready to defend the Liberty from its intruders, now even more with the new Lieutenant Commander Harrison Freeman, who was Rodney's son.
Events in the Bretonia together with the Liberty Navy made The Vengeance and its pilots to prove themselves as heroes. Big battles in the New London and California have put the Vengeance on the peak of power. The Vengeance's history is telling us how pilots of the Vengeance have the ability to control a warship and put many battles on the list of success. The 825 AS won't be a year with such big events, but it will be the year of few changes, putting in word the crew change as one of the changes.
The Vengeance's current position is on the Planet Los Angeles to defend the California from sudden attacks from the Gallia. However, the fights started being rare and put the ship to be in the static position, only to patrol in that system. The changes have started. Since The Vengeance has nothing currently to do in the California system except to patrol, the rumors have started. There's a possibility for a total change of crew, except for the Commander and Lieutenant Commander. The Vengeance was ordered to move itself to the system New York and to do patrols in that system due to the increased criminal activity. Movement to the New York was one of the last moments of the crew that's supposed to get a change and to get a new job to work for the Liberty Security Force. The rumors were correct, the change of crew will happen in the 23rd of December 825 AS. However this is still not an end for the crew. The were still numerous raid by the Rogues and Outcast forces, sometimes with Xeno and the Hellfire Legion. The Vengeance was successful in defend the New York from those threats, but to take some damage. However on the 23rd of December the change has happened, changing all of its crew but keeping only the Lieutenant Commander and Commander.
The Commander and Lieutenant Commander have swaped their position, putting Harrison on the position of the Commander, Rodney on the position as the Lieutenant Commander. The new crew has already been put on the ship. One of the main crew are:
1. Commanding Officer: Commander Harrison Freeman
2. Lieutenant Commander: Rodney Freeman
3. Chief Weapons Officer: Anakin Watson
4. Chief Navigation Officer: Robert Smith
5. Head of Science: Anna Clarke
6. Head of Medical: Sarah White
The Vengeance's new objective is to patrol in the Texas system and defend the system from the Harmony's hands together with anyone else who can be a threat. The movement to New London is still not a sure thing with this objective.
