Service history
The Kvasir's first campaign as the head of the Mecklinger Fleet was in Reinhard von Lohengramm's campaign to defeat the Free Planets Alliance's invasion of Imperial space in 796 UC (487 IC / 3596 CE). It would also fight in the major battles outside Geiersburg Fortress in the Imperial Civil War in 797 UC (488 IC / 3597 CE). (LOGH: 'The Battle of Amritsar Starzone', 'Courage and Loyalty', 'The Fall of Goldenbaum')
With the Mecklinger Fleet serving in a support role in the following campaigns, the Kvasir did not sortie again until 800 UC (2 NIC / 491 IC / 3600 CE), but it did not see active combat at either the Battle of the Corridor or Oskar von Reuenthal's rebellion. (LOGH: 'The Battle of the Corridor: The Invincible and the Undefeated', 'Live by the Sword...')
