One of the first of the new Conquérant class battleships, the Battleship Dax was deployed to the [[Tau-31]] system in late 822 [[A.S.]] to oversee the securing of [[Planet Harris]]. With the planet being held by little more than a tiny [[Planetform]] scientific contingent, the task was effectively a mere final field trial to test the design's effectiveness. In particular, the Conquérants were being touted as the answer to sedition in post-war [[Gallic]] occupied territories, with refinements in the classes' orbital targetting technology expected to be highly useful in heavy-handedly dissuading open dissent.

After the Harris mine field was breached and a total blockade imposed, the Dax's first operational goal was achieved. Planetform formally surrendered the planet to Gallia in early 823 A.S., having provided a token resistance for several months. Brokering an agreement that he would later be sharply chastised for, the Dax's captain agreed to allow Planetform to evacuate all of its remaining staff, believing it would simplify [[EFL|EFL's]] upcoming stewardship of the planet. The smuggling [[Gaian Wildlife]] has also been sharply curtailed by the Dax's deployment, although alleged corruption among the ship's officers has allowed unscrupulous EFL captains to resume the practice.

One of the first of the new Conquérant class battleships, the Dax is heavily modified to accommodate the veritable amount of weapon and targeting systems that support the operations of 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 since the early days of the invasion, the Dax saw little to no combat in the past years. Originally slated to support the Leeds invasion, the Gallic Royal Navy decided against this, in order to secure the already strained supply lines in the Taus.

In preparation for the blitz on New London it was relocated from the backwater system of Tau-31 to spearhead the assault, and bring its guns to bear on the very heart of House Bretonia.
