Historical Events

  • Lalande 8 is saved by the UESS Tanganjika (FF-477, Tanganjika class) when it lures a suicidal Romulan auxiliary carrier into ramming an abandoned mining station instead of the mining colony.[2]
The year is conjecture.
  • UESS San Esteban (NDD-1021, Ganges class) is the only UESF ship lost with all hands in the final Romulan plunge at alpha Omega B, taking with her two Romulan stormwings but unable to prevent the massacre of more than 20,000 people on the planetary settlement.[2]
  • Construction on the Victory class battle cruiser prototype being built at Kaleb is halted—due to combat at nearby frontlines—while the hull is transferred to Andor.[3]
  • The Podish class scout enters service with the UESF.[4]
  • The second (and last) production run of the Intrepid subclass Triton heavy cruisers is completed.[5]
  • The first four vessels of the Achilles cruiser class have received the newer weapons configuration.[6]
  • The battle cruiser UESS Yorktown enters service with the UESF.[7]
  • Construction is halted on the remaining two Yorktown battle cruiser hulls, based upon the prototype trials of the lead ship.[7]
Conjecture, based upon article indicating three vessels were begun, but only one completed.
  • The first three Bradley class 'space tanks' are commissioned into the UESF.[8]
  • Four unfinished Mars subclass light torpedo destroyers are completed with shield generators, warp-accelerated lasers, and advanced sensors for long range armed reconnaissance, as the Turing light destroyer subclass.[9]
  • The Battle of Gamma Hydra ends with a Terran victory, although Admiral Larson is compelled to leave the UESS Kirov and UESS Kerry behind—along with 200 crew—to consolidate dilithium for the remaining three Achilles cruisers and two Enterprise explorers.[6]
  • The Siebel FC-100 subclass strike transport completes its production run of 40.[10]
  • At least two Cavalry destroyers and one Christopher light cruiser engage Romulan missile boats (and possibly other targets) at Nimbus.[11]
  • The VK Velikan, commanded by Mike Volland, launches from the Sol system on a mission of stellar chart mapping.[12]
This ship may have been a DY-1200.
  • The Tarn colonize Foundry Terminus and begin constructing a weapons manufacturing and military equipment production center.[13]
  • February: Starbase Two comes on-line with a large amount of medical expertise incorporated in the design.[14]
Month and year is conjecture, based on the statement they became operational in the months before the battle and that the battle occurred at the end of the year.
  • End of March: Ten vessels of the Podish class scout have been completed and have entered service with the UESF.[4]
  • April: A Doppler class scout reports the discovery of a frontline Romulan command center in the Cheron system.[15][11]
The month is conjecture, though it occurred four months prior to the Battle of Cheron.
  • May 1st: Romulans attack Draylax using a warp-speed kamikaze run, causing massive fires and volcanic eruptions all over the planet. Over a billion Draylaxians are killed and more deaths are expected.[16]
  • June: Starbase Three comes on-line.[14]
Month and year is conjecture, based on the statement they became operational in the months before the battle and that the battle occurred at the end of the year.
  • August: The Battle of Cheron marks the last major battle of the Romulan War. It is fought in Romulan space between two squadrons of allied ships and remnants of four Romulan groups. The Enterprise explorers draw the Romulan capital ships away, after which the seven Christopher light cruisers make their attack run within the 83 Leonis system. The battle ends inconclusively, with neither side having any combat-capable ships remaining. This battle marks the allies' last opportunity to organize a fleet strong enough to reach the supposed location of the Romulan homeworld. It is considered a victory nevertheless, because the Romulans lose more than the allies with the destruction of the frontline command center and the loss of the entire Romulan subspace communications network in sectors 23 through 28. The Andorian Imperial Guard strikes against Barradas and Draken near simultaneously.[17][18][11][19]
The month is conjecture, though presumed to occur in the latter part of the year and did occur four months after the discovery by the unknown Doppler.
  • August: The sixteenth ship of the Minuteman class destroyer is completed.[20]
The month is conjecture, as is the number.
  • August/September: The Romulans send an offer for truce through subspace radio. Romulan ships everywhere disengage, withdraw several parsecs, and wait for news of peace negotiations. These soon began under the leadership of Council Member Abraham Dannon.[3]
The time is conjecture, though occurs two weeks after the Battle of Cheron.
  • September: Construction on the Victory class battle cruiser prototypes at Mars ceases, while it slows down for the one at Andor.[3]
The time is conjecture, though occurs shortly after receipt of the Romulan truce offer. The event is conjecture, but one prototype would eventually be completed.
  • September: Construction halts on all further Podesta class scouts. Deactivation plans are drawn up for the active ones. Over twelve are re-assigned to the Daedalus modernization program, extending the viability of the selected scouts.[4]
The time is conjecture, though occurs around the time of the armistice.
  • October 12th: The Romulans communicate with the Earth government and insist on additional terrestrial gains for the Romulan Star Empire. In exchange, they are willing to accept higher restrictions on Neutral Zone outposts. Dannon reluctantly makes many of the necessary concessions and United Earth Council President Thorpe ratifies the completed Treaty of Peace. The treaty is transmitted to the Romulan Star Empire.[18][11]
  • October 12th: The Discovery class assault transports/scouts are withdrawn from service on the day of armistice.[21]
  • Following armistice: UESS Olympia and UESS Coto (Poseidon class heavy cruisers) enter service just in time to take part in armistice celebrations.[22]
  • Following armistice: The last of the 38 Redstone subclass transports is completed.[24]
