Battleship Kolleda was scheduled to be launched in 810 [[A.S.]], however several attacks made against [[Oder Shipyard]] and upon the hull of the Kolleda itself caused its launch to be delayed almost by three years. During its time in service the battleship was chiefly used as a training ship with many recent officers of the [[Rheinland Military]] having undergone command training aboard the Kolleda. The ship was also used to instruct and familiarise enlisted crew scheduled to serve on [https://ref.discoverygc.com/Ship/dsy_rh_battleship Bismarck] class warships.

Battleship Kolleda was scheduled to be launched in 810 AS, but Unioner raids on Oder Shipyard delayed the Kolleda’s frontline service for years. During its initial time in rear-line service, the battleship was used as a training ship for the new-found Kolleda tactics school, with many of Rheinland Military’s finest having undergone command training aboard the half-built Kolleda, in a rumoured attempt to emulate the professionalism of Liberty’s West Point academy. Lessons hard-learnt in the 80-Year and Nomad wars influenced an entire generation of officers.

Previously, the Kolleda was positioned close to the [[Hamburg]] gate in the [[Hudson]] system as a result of the [[Jump Gate]] crisis and to serve as base of operations for the various repair crews that were tasked with restoring the gate. During its time the ship also performed traffic regulation duties, monitoring the resumed trade between [[Liberty]] and [[Rheinland]] brought about by the ceasefire between the two nations.

The Kolleda’s first tour of duty came during the post-war jump gate crisis. The Kolleda was positioned close to the Hamburg gate in the Hudson system, serving as a base for repair crews openly, and quietly as a mobile listening post near the Liberty border.

After several months of peacetime, the Kolleda was requisitioned at the behest of the MND and relocated to the heart of the Thuringia system, where it remained until the war with [[Kusari]] necessitated its deployment to the Sigma cluster. The Kolleda now serves as an early warning post and first line of defense in the [[Sigma-21]] system, a role with which the battlegroup's commanding officer, Rear Admiral Jürgen Lindauer, was not pleased.

Armistice evolved into lasting peace.

While requests from Admiral Lindauer to have his ships redeployed to the front line have gone unanswered, this has not stopped the Kolleda's battlegroup from taking up an aggressive posture, and the Kolleda has frequently been seen launching raids into both [[Honshu]] and [[Sigma-59]] with an imperialist zeal, prompting questions about the Admiral and his battlegroup from Thuringia.

Battleship Kolleda was scheduled to be launched in 810 AS, but Unioner raids on Oder Shipyard delayed the Kolleda’s frontline service for years. During its initial time in rear-line service, the battleship was used as a training ship for the new-found Kolleda tactics school, with many of Rheinland Military’s finest having undergone command training aboard the half-built Kolleda, in a rumoured attempt to emulate the professionalism of Liberty’s West Point academy. Lessons hard-learnt in the 80-Year and Nomad wars influenced an entire generation of officers. A common rumour in the Rheinland military is that the command officers trained on the Kolleda harbour rigid, almost imperialistic, beliefs. To the crew of the Kolleda, the doctrines of the ancient Imperial Navy remain alive.

The Kolleda’s first tour of duty came during the post-war jump gate crisis. The Kolleda was positioned close to the Hamburg gate in the Hudson system, serving as a base for repair crews openly, and quietly as a mobile listening post near the Liberty border. The proud Kolleda battlegroup performed basic trade regulation duties, brought about by the ceasefire of 823 AS.

Armistice evolved into lasting peace. Under concerns by the Admiralty that the crack battlegroup was going to waste on patrol duties, the Kolleda was relocated at the behest of the MND to the heart of the Thuringia system. Training duties were the order of the day, but neo-Imperial officers of the Kolleda frequently clashed with their shipmates, maintaining an interservice rivalry with the agents of Weimar.

Tensions with Kusari rushed the Kolleda’s deployment to the Sigma systems. Thirsty for a true theatre of war, and keen to showcase their skill, The Kolleda’s battlegroup mounted cruise-and-fade raids against the Kusari navy and the GMG, in utter contrast to the blunt tactics of previous Rheinlandic wars. Lead by the implacable Rear Admiral Jürgen Lindauer, the former head of the Kolleda Tactics School, the aggression of the battlegroup stunned strategic planners. Lindauer displayed the effectiveness of his men to the Rheinland media, using the opportunity to air his personal grievances with the GMG. Lindauer painted an image of the GMG as opportunists, manipulating Rheinland and Kusari alike for corporate power. Questions were raised as to Lindauer’s true motivations, but the Rheinland military remains unwilling to investigate the Kolleda’s officers.

It is rumoured that the Kolleda battlegroup are victims of their own success. Unwilling to make a hero of the Imperialists, the Rheinland government denied repeated requests from Lindauer to deploy the Kolleda to Honshu, out of the Admiral’s suspected desire to strike Aomori Station. With a fresh Sigma treaty drawn up between Kusari and Rheinland, the Kolleda has been slow to withdraw from the border system. There are those who believe anti-GMG elements are collaborating with Lindauer to achieve an unspoken vendetta, deep in the Sigmas. Many of the officers of the Rheinland Navy who fought alongside Lindauer have returned to Rheinland after the war, and are rumoured to have taken his zeal home with them.
