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.
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 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.

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.   
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.
