Operational History

The Tiamat was a Clan Wolf Invader-class JumpShip. Operated by the Merchant caste, it was one of the few left behind in the Wolf Empire after Khan Alaric Ward took most of the Wolf touman to participate at the Battle of Terra. It had arrived at the nadir jump point of Gienah, the empire's capital. Probably was one of the three encountered there the 29 May 3152, after another JumpShip, the Gargoyle arrived in the system.[1]

But, unknown to everybody, the Gargoyle's identification was a fake one: in reality, they were a ship of the Wolf's Dragoons, which was delivering the temible Zeta Battalion. And the 6 June, another JumpShip of the Dragoons arrived to clear the nadir jump point, detaching two DropShips, the Elgrim and Falgrim, which quickly make short of the single Wolf defending unit there, the Pack Mule, before joining to attack the Tiamat.[2]

The Tiamat was quickly boarded the the Dragoons, and it is implied than they took the JumpShip as isorla when departed, after completing their raid.[3]
