== Battle of Jar'mas- 2420 ==


'''''NOTE- This mission was undertaken by the crew of the USS CIRCE'''''


<center><font size="+2">Major Skirmishes and Military Actions in KRIMA</font></center>
This large-scale fleet action began in response to rebel Gorn forces massing at the heretofor-secret Gorn shipyards codenamed 'Clawkey' 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]].

'''''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 forces at their 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 in the open space of the tundra, without any naturally defensible positions, 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.

This skirmish began innocently enough with USS TIGERSHARK and USS VALLEY FORGE responding to a distress call from the Romulan scout ship Ch'R BO'VOCHE.  However, it was soon discovered that the Romulan crew had all died by being exposed to a violent biological agent.  It was then that forces from the [[Romulan Star Empire]] and their [[Echen F'don]] friends decided to try to keep this biological agent's existence a secret- by eliminating the far-outgunned TIGERSHARK and VALLEY FORGE.

A simple distress call and the loss of a small frigate ended up being, until recently, the largest engagement between [[Gorn Hegemony|Gorn]] and Federation forces.

The first half of the battle, typically called '1st Tybiiran,' was a rescue mission:  [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Member_Units#USS_LEVIATHAN_NCC-25002|USS LEVIATHAN]] received a distress call from the USS LOR'VELA in the [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Stellar_Phenomena#The_Tybiiran_Complex|Tybiiran Asteroid Belt]], and went to investigate.  What they found was that a small [[Gorn Hegemony]] force had overwhelmed the small frigate and seized her in an effort to keep their presence in [[KRIMAXFOR_-_Stellar_Phenomena#The_Tybiiran_Complex|Tybiiran]] a secret.  KRIMAXFOR_-_Member_Units#USS_LEVIATHAN_NCC-25002|LEVIATHAN]] managed to recover LOR'VELA and clear the [[Gorn Hegemony|Gorn]] from the area...for the time being.

The second half of the saga- '2nd Tybiiran'- was a more dubious investigation.  This time, Federation forces knew that they were facing: partially-assimilated [[Gorn Hegemony|Gorn]] troops with [[Borg]]-enhanced weapons.  The subsequent battle was touch-and-go, with only the heroism and bravery of the Star Fleet officers from Tactical Squadron 91 (LEVIATHAN, LOR'VELA and USS RAMSES) and [[DS13|Deep Space 13]] (USS SPITFIRE) turning the tide in their favor at the very end...but not without cost: SPITFIRE was lost, as was her commanding officer, Lieutenant Commander Cayle Veld.
