Historical Events

  • The Romulans penetrate the interplanetary security of the Sector 5B Mining Complex, destroying this important allied resource.[1]
The year of the attack is moved forward to accommodate the stated year of official hostilities.
  • A Mercury hull under construction is modified to become the first Doppler class scout.[2]
  • The Romulans conduct a starship suicide attack on the planet Vulcan.[3]
  • The loss of six more Daedalus corvettes by the end of this year leads the class to be relegated to secondary roles shortly thereafter.[4]
  • The Ganges class destroyers receive the 1-layer graviton/subspace globular forcefield during upgrade.[5]
  • The Minuteman design is selected for the UESF's new deep-space destroyer class.[6]
  • UESF Command composes the ‘seventy per cent deal’, where 70% of the cost of an Enterprise class explorer will be budgeted to other ship classes for each one built.[7]
  • Construction of the Chryse subclass transports begins.[8]
  • First contact between Humans and Saurians occurs with the crew of an Earth freighter.[9]
  • The many nations of Sauria begin merging into one of two global powers: the Global League of Lyaksti'kton and the Kingdom of M'Tezir.[10]
These mergers will be complete by the time of the UFP visit in 2162.
  • February 16: A Starfleet task force engages Romulan forces seeking out a Vissian listening post coreward of Romulan space in the Gamma Hydrae Sector. After suffering the loss of 5 vessels, the surviving Human ships are saved by the arrival of 10 Vissian warships that force a Romulan retreat.[11][12]
  • March: The Vissians deny the United Earth request to join the war against the Romulan Star Empire, and instead pass a permanent embargo of advanced technology to "immature civilizations".[13][12]
  • June: The last of six Mercury class scouts (in one year) is lost, presumably to Romulan action.[14]
  • June: USS Candace (S-5665) is damaged in an encounter with Romulan forces.[14]
The month is conjecture.
  • July: Concurrent design, development and construction of the Achilles and Helena class cruisers begins.[7]
Month is conjecture, though the project took 8 months total for the first Achilles' to be fully produced in 2158.
  • September: USS Candace (S-5665) re-launches, is hijacked by stranded Romulans, recovered by the USS Jackson (Cavalry class) and returned to drydock for repairs.[14]
The hijacking occurred 3 months after its initial encounter in June.
