The DCS '''''Georgia''''' was a ''[[Bonaventure (WarShip class)|Bonaventure]]''-class [[WarShip]] in service to the [[Draconis Combine]]. One of the few remaining WarShips in the [[Inner Sphere]] after the [[First Succession War]], it was deployed in the Combine's attack of the [[Hesperus]] system in [[2853]] as one of a trio of corvettes forming the zenith [[jump point]] blockade fleet (along with the ''[[Pacheco]]'' and the ''[[Tamura]]'').

The [[Lyran Commonwealth]] famously reactivated their ancient battlecruiser [[LCS]] ''[[Invincible (Individual Tharkad-class WarShip)|Invincible]]'' to break through the Combine siege. The ''Invincible'' jumped to the Hesperus system's nadir jump point on 25 October 2853 and smashed through the Combine blockade vessels, with a relief fleet behind it. As the Lyran fleet moved towards Hesperus II, the Draconis Combine recalled the corvettes from the zenith jump point blockade fleet to a pirate jump point near the planet, to bolster the planetary blockade fleet.<ref>BattleCorps scenario ''Tactics of Desperation II''</ref> However, in the face of superior Lyran firepower the Draconis Combine fleet was quickly forced to retreat. It was not specified which vessels were lost in the battle on either side, though all Draconis Combine WarShips that had participated in the blockade were destroyed.<ref>''House Steiner (The Lyran Commonwealth)'', PDF p. 64</ref>
