| The Trafalgar, like so many other A.M.C. warships, is a British Royal Starfleet design. As with the Manhattan class cruiser, the Trafalgar heavy cruiser design has not actually been constructed yet in Sagittarius. The Trafalgar dispenses with the antiship missiles carried by smaller ship types in favor of a heavy beam armament that rivals even a battleship. Trafalgar heavy cruisers have seen action against an Aztlan task force transiting the Epsilon Eridani system to attack a Brazilian colony in 2349. In this action, the British demanded the Aztlan force depart the system by the way they entered. Rather than comply, the Aztlan force jammed all outgoing radio links and opened fire on a pair of Trafalgars and their Oberon consorts. In the ensuing firefight the Trafalgars laid waste to the Aztlan cruiser force while suffering only minor damage in return. The Aztlan survivors fled while the Oberons finished off any Aztlan ships that refused to surrender – in the end, none survived the encounter that did not manage to flee. The terrible loss led to a suspension of all Aztlan off-world activities for several years and a considerable easing of pirate and terrorist activity. | |
