One of only a handful of heavily advanced Conquérant class battleships produced by Royal Gallia, the Dax is heavily modified to accommodate the veritable mountains of weapons and targeting systems that support the operations of ship-to-ship combat and planetary bombardment, representing a shift in design philosophy from the more conventional Richelieu class to specialized roles for Gallic warships.

Stationed in the orbit of Planet Harris during the early days of the invasion, the Dax saw little to no combat until the closing days of the war, where she played a pivotal role in the blitz on New London. The Dax and her battlegroup were the only ships in Gallia's fleet to breach the planet's Allied blockade, and the Dax was responsible for the deployment of fighter craft into the atmosphere in support of Triumph beam strikes on the world's cities and military bases. Although the attack was ultimately routed as the Nogent-le-Rotroi and Le Cendre were encircled and destroyed, the Dax and a small portion of her battlegroup limped away to Dublin, and then to Aquitaine.

Today the Dax is the single most important warship in the Enclave's fleet. While the considerably less advanced La Riche and Montmorency have been deployed to the less dangerous borders against Confederate Gallia and Crayter space, the Dax and her cohort alone have the unique privledge of guarding the exiled Royalist's capital. The Dax is kept in peak operational condition, and only the finest officers and crew in the remnant Gallic fleet ever receive a posting on her decks. If ever House Bretonia manages to breach Aquitaine, the Dax will await them with vigilance and fury.
