The RNV Borascu was a UIR Cargo Ship. For her last voyage in 0 B.E., she was requisitioned by the Union of Independent Republics' military to transport a contingent of Gorasni troops from Vasgar to Chalitz in the Republic of Gorasnaya. She was sunk off the coast of OZP-11 by an Artillery Battery after Major Garron Paduk and his troops seized control of the vessel and attempted to land nearby. Although the sinking caused many deaths, Paduk and some 200 Gorasni survived to instigate the Mutiny at OZP-11.
History[]
The Mutiny at OZP-11[]
On the 11th of Reap in 0 B.E., in the final days of the Pendulum Wars, the RNV Borascu was requisitioned by the UIR's military to transport a contingent of Gorasni troops from Vasgar to Chalitz in the Republic of Gorasnaya. The troops are led by Major Garron Paduk who secretly met with the Gorasni covert operative that was called Agent 6 and received the orders from Commander Miran Trescu to launch the UIR's Hammer of Dawn satellites at the OZP-11 cosmodrome in order to restart the Pendulum Wars and prevent the UIR's capitulation to the Coalition of Ordered Governments.[1]
According to the log of the vessel's Captain, the voyage to Chalitz was relatively uneventful until 1645 hours when a Gorasni stowaway possibly Agent 6 was discovered in the hold. Fifteen minutes later, the Captain declared a mutiny as Major Paduk and a number of Gorasni troops that are loyal to him attempted to seize control of the vessel. They are unsuccessfully resisted by the ship's crew and some of the soldiers, but the Captain managed to make contact with UIR Control Vasgar and inform Major Girek C. Toly about the situation before Paduk and his men could stop him.[1] Major Toly ordered C Battery which was a part of OZP-11's coastal defenses to open fire on the RNV Borascu before it could dock.[2] Although the RNV Borascu was sunk and many of the people aboard are killed, Paduk and 200 of his soldiers survived and made it shore where they instigated the three-day Mutiny at OZP-11.[3]
Swarm Invasion[]
The remains of the RNV Borascu in 42 A.E.
Decades later, the sea that was around OZP-11 and the unidentified Vasgari port city receded substantially by leaving a vast expanse of crimson desert behind and uncovering the wreck of the RNV Borascu. In 42 A.E., a number of DeeBees, a Silverback and other COG supplies are dropped over the wreck by one of Damon S. Baird's Condors which he was using to secretly funnel the supplies to the Nomads due to his friendship with Garron Paduk. During the Mission to OZP-11, a group of Nomads attempted to recover the supplies from the wreck, but they are attacked by the two Flocks which converted the DeeBees into Rejects. Delta-One arrived in time to defeat the Flocks and Rejects by saving one of the Nomads.[4]
