Service history

The Heremoss participated in Operation Ragnarok under the direct command of Reinhard von Lohengramm in 799 UC (1 NIC / 490 IC / 3599 CE).

At the Battle of Vermilion, Vice Admiral Carnap, along with the majority of the Imperial fleet, was encircled by the Yang Fleet. Carnap ordered his fleet to attack the Alliance fleet where friendly forces were concentrating their fire, in an attempt to break out of the encirclement. Fleet Admiral Yang deliberately let Carnap through, and as Carnap's fleet passed through the Müller Fleet, opened fired on them both. The Heremoss was destroyed in the crossfire. (LOGH: 'The Battle of Vermilion (Part One)', 'The Battle of Vermilion (Part Two)')

Design

The Heremoss was a standard Imperial battleship and was distinguished by a greyish horizontal arrowhead crest. (LOGH: 'The Battle of Vermilion (Part Two)')
