Early service

In January 793 UC (484 IC / 3593 CE), he was serving as a supply officer and commanded a ship which supplied Commander Reinhard von Müsel's cruiser, the Hässliche Entlein, which had been operating on a secret mission in Alliance territory. (RET: 'Chapter IV')

Admiralty

Ernst von Eisenach joined the admiralty of Reinhard von Lohengramm sometime after the Lippstadt War. (LOGH: 'Portraits')

He would play an important role in the Battle of Marr-Adetta, as he helped to take out most of the Alliance fleet.

His most significant manuever came in the Battle of Shiva, where he nearly wiped out the entirety of the Iserlohn Fleet along with Fritz Josef Bittenfeld. In that manuever, his fleet caused significant damage to the Flagship Hyperion, killing High Admiral Merkatz.

Personal life

Eisenach is married.

Outside of Battle, Eisenach rarely ever speaks, however, on one occaision, after the assault on Fezzan, playing a solo 3-D Chess game, Eisenach utters the word "Checkmate" out loud, startling his fellow admirals.

"That's the first time I've heard his voice!"

"I had no idea, he can speak?"

-Neidhart Muller and Fritz Josef Bittenfeld's reaction to hearing Eisenach speak
