	In or around [[3090]], the [[Raven Alliance]] found its need for a dedicated transport fleet of WarShips lessening, and [[Clan Diamond Shark]] [[Khan]] Nagasawa saw an opportunity for a beneficial trade.

This proved a contentious proposal for the warriors of the [[Clan Snow Raven Touman|Snow Raven ''touman'']], but ultimately the trade was agreed.

(See notes) ===The Dark Age=== By [[3101]], the bulk of the Raven Alliance WarShip fleet had been mothballed, but the ''Marshal Ney'' remained active throughout the [[Dark Age]], serving alongside the ''Lynn McKenna'' as the only two active ships from the Alliance Naval Star. The ''Lynn McKenna'' and the ''Marshall Ney'' engaged in numerous skirmishes with forces from the [[Draconis Combine]] during the Dark Age, and between [[3095]] and [[3134]] ships from the Alliance Naval Star would win the [[McKenna Wheel]] no less than twelve times.<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> When [[Star Admiral]] [[Iqbal Lankenau]] was elected [[saKhan]] in [[3132]], his successor was Star Admiral [[Loretta Gilmour]]. Under Admiral Gilmour the ''Marshal Ney'' and the Alliance Naval Star were a key part of the Raven Alliance defenses against the Draconis Combine and the [[Federated Suns]]; when the Raven Alliance began bringing their WarShip fleet out of mothballs the ''Mulhacén'' and ''Kutkh'' returned to active service, bringing the Alliance Naval Star up to four active WarShips. The Alliance Naval Star then increased to five WarShips when the ''[[Whirlwind]]''-class destroyer ''[[William Adams (Individual Whirlwind-class WarShip)|William Adams]]'' was added to the Star, but the reintegration of the three mothballed ships with the Star didn't go well. The Raven Alliance responded by sending the Star to the spinward frontier of the Alliance for more than a year to conduct training exercises before returning them to active duty and assigning the Star to pirate-hunting missions.<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> The ''Marshal Ney'' and the Alliance Naval Star actively pursued pirates throughout the spinward frontier of the alliance before vanishing mysteriously; after a sixteen-month absence the Star reappeared in the Dante system just in time for the launch of the Draconis Combine's invasion of the Federated Suns.<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the Alliance Naval Star''' |- | [[Star Admiral]]||[[Iqbal Lankenau]]||[[3132]]<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> |- | Star Admiral||[[Loretta Gilmour]]||3132 - [[3145]]<ref name="FM:3145p173">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 173: "Alpha Galaxy (Swift Wing Galaxy)"</ref> |- |} ==Tactics== Unknown. ==Composition History== ===3091=== '''Alliance Naval Star'''<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> * ''Nightlord''-class battleship ''Lynn McKenna'' * ''Essex''-class destroyers ''Marshal Ney'' and ''Mulhacén'' * ''Fredasa''-class corvette ''Kutkh'' ===3101=== '''Alliance Naval Star'''<ref name="ER:3145p74"/> * ''Nightlord''-class battleship ''Lynn McKenna'' * ''Essex''-class destroyer ''Marshal Ney'' ===3145=== '''Alliance Naval Star''' (Elite/Fanatical)<ref name="FM:3145p173"/> * ''Nightlord''-class battleship ''Lynn McKenna'' * ''Essex''-class destroyers ''Marshal Ney'' and ''Mulhacén'' * ''Whirlwind''-class destroyer ''William Adams'' * ''Fredasa''-class corvette ''Kutkh'' :- At this point the Alliance Naval Star was operating from [[Hazelhurst]] as a part of [[Gamma Galaxy (Clan Snow Raven)|Gamma Galaxy]]. ==Notes== * It was confirmed via a question in the "Ask The Writers" forum of the official [[Catalyst Game Labs]] forum that the ''Tracy'' had been renamed the ''Marshal Ney'': {{quote|The Diamond Shark fleet (what survived from the Jihad) was turned into ArcShips or traded to the Snow Ravens for vessels to turn into ArcShips.
