Service history
The Patroklos led the 2nd Fleet to engage the Lohengramm Fleet at the Battle of Astarte in 796 UC (487 IC / 3596 CE). With the 2nd Fleet at an immediate disadvantage against the numerically superior foe, the Patroklos was struck by enemy fire, resulting in damage to the bridge and the wounding of Vice Admiral Paetta. Commodore Yang Wen-li took command of the fleet and forced a stalemate against the Imperial force. The Patroklos survived the battle. (DNT: 'In the Eternal Night', 'The Battle of Astarte')
Design
The Patroklos was a modified version of the Alliance's standard battleship design. Unlike other flagships, it was virtually identical to a standard alliance battleship, with no modifications in layout or armament. The sole distinguishing features were the four antennae protruding from the dorsal, ventral, port and starboard side of the rear hull.
