Service history
The Ostmark served as flagship of the Lippstadt Alliance's Littenheim Fleet during the Imperial Civil War in 797 UC (488 IC / 3597 CE). When the Littenheim Fleet was engaged by the Kircheis Fleet, Wahlen Fleet and Lutz Fleet in the Kifeuser System, the Ostmark came under direct threat by a detachment of 800 ships led by High Admiral Siegfried Kircheis' flagship Barbarossa. Littenheim, fearing for his life, beat a hasty retreat to Garmisch Fortress. The Ostmark's shield ships were destroyed in the process. The Ostmark was presumably captured when Kircheis' troops seized the fortress after Littenheim's death. (LOGH: 'Courage and Loyalty')
Design
The Ostmark is apparently identical to the Wilhelmina and Berlin in design. Like the Berlin, in battle is accompanied by two shield ships which travel in close proximity to the port and starboard side. (LOGH: 'Courage and Loyalty')
