This mission ended with the loss of the escorts USS ''Sabre'' and ''Yakolev'' as well as the psychological trauma encountered by the members who were abducted by the Fardons. Immediately following this mission, follow-up missions by USS ''Resolution'' and USS ''Quasar'' were carried out. However, since this time, they have not come up as a major force in ASR role-play until very recently, when [[USS CIRCE|USS ''Circe'']] began uncovering evidence of Fardon incursions into [[Gold Fleet]] areas of operations. | ||

Several missions were dispatched to find the suspected bases; no more were found. It was as if the Fardons had disappeared for more than two years. In early 2412, USS ''Ikar'', a [[BuSHIPS#Tsyklon-class_Surveyor|Tsyklon-class]] scout was studying gravitic anomalies on the near edge of the Scutum Rift. Without warning six Fardon corvettes attacked and destroyed ''Ikar'' with the loss of all hands. The attacking vessels used gravitic propulsion exclusively, gravitic weapons of an unknown design and had armored, spiked hulls made of a substance called kirellium. Stafleet dispatched USS ''Quasar'' to the scene; her squadron spent about a year looking for evidence of the Fardons in the area and found nothing. | Several missions were dispatched to find the suspected bases; no more were found.

Some analysts suspect that the recent destruction of the USS ''Chang Zheng'' might also be the work of the Fardons. USS ''Circe'' found a kirellium-hulled shuttlecraft on [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Planets_of_Note#Karbella_II|Karbella II]] in the [[OSFI_Orestes_Sector_Situational_Report|Orestes Sector]] and traces of kirellium have also been found on [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Planets_of_Note#Frika|Frika]], a planet outside Federation space and not far from the [[Gorn_Hegemony]] and [[Romulan_Star_Empire|Romulan]] borders near DS13. | Some analysts suspect that the recent destruction of the USS ''Chang Zheng'' might also be the work of the Fardons.
