History[edit]

As of 3061, the Cameron-class battlecruiser Ice Storm was a WarShip in the Clan Snow Raven touman and was serving as the CSR Ice Storm, one of five WarShips that made up the Snow Raven Assault Star. The Ice Storm had only recently returned to service at this point, having been damaged in a clash with Clan Jade Falcon's Emerald Talon Assault Star.[1]

The Ice Storm survived the Wars of Reaving and the Jihad, and was one of the WarShips to be reactivated by the Snow Ravens during the Dark Age. In 3145, the Ice Storm was the flagship of the Ice Storm Naval Star; as had been the case in 3079, the Ice Storm Naval Star consisted of the Ice Storm, the Conqueror-class carrier Ark Royal, the Congress-class frigate Magpie, the Whirlwind-class destroyer Drake and the Vincent-class corvette Munnin.[2][3] Commanding the Ice Storm in 3145 was saKhan Iqbal Lankenau, as part of Alpha Galaxy operating from Ramora.[4]

Notes[edit]

  • References to the CSR Cold Hunter, an alleged vessel in the Clan Snow Raven touman, have officially been declared to be in error, i.e. should be disregarded entirely as noncanonical. No Snow Raven vessel ever existed under that name, nor is the existence of such a ship a canon rumor.[5]
