+== Battle of Jar'mas- 2420 ==
+'''''NOTE- This mission was undertaken by the crew of the USS CIRCE'''''
+This large-scale fleet action began in response to rebel Gorn forces massing at the heretofor-secret Gorn shipyards codenamed 'Clawkwy' in the Jar'mas system.  The facility, under the direct control of Fleet Lord Mor'dak, had somehow been able to construct several hundred new shipsin a short period of time, giving Mor'dak the firepower he needed to openly ignore the Kimura Accords.  Soon, he began raiding border worlds along the Federation and Tholian borders.
+[[USS CIRCE]] led a battle force of some 30+ ships into Jar'mas, onmly to find they were outnumbered by a factor of over 20.  However, using the gravitational anomolies in the region to their advantage by funneling the attacking Gorn through a small mouth and mining its exit point while sacrificing every small craft the group had as large mssiles, Federation Battle Group 1 was able to destroy over 200 gorn ships in short order.
+However, the entirety of the Gorn fleet did not pour through the gap (nicknamed "the Narrows") as the sensors showed; instead, the rest of the Gorn fleet had moved to attack the Federation forces massing at "Point Omega," an area just on the Gorn side of the Voira Tundra, some 25 light years from [[DS13|Deep Space 13]].
+== Voira Tundra- 2420 ==
+'''''NOTE- This battle was fought simultaneously to the Battle of Jar'mas.  It was undertaken by the crew of the USS CIRCE.'''''
+This large-scale fleet action was supposed to be the killer blow to Federation forces in the BETA Quadrant.  After successfully diverting Battle Group 1 to Jar'mas, Fleet Lord MOr'dak moved the rest of his forces to annihilate the Federation rendezvous point, 'Point Omega,' just outside the Voira Tundra in Gorn space.
+The battle was hard-fought, and the Federation force of 50+ starships more than held their own, but shear numbers here in open space, without any naturally defensible points, were working against Rear Admiral Vargas's forces.  However, just as the tide of battle was turning firmly against Star Fleet, a Tholian armada showed up, over 100 ships strong.  At that point, Mor'dak withdrew his forces relatively intact, suffering moderate losses.  The battle was a tactical victory for Star Fleet but a strategic defeat, as Mor'dak's forces were able to flee the scene still able to wage battle.
+Federation losses were heavy, including the starship MEDEA, among others.
