The Molinari originally started service as a container ship liner built by the Alterra Dockyard for the Stargate Line cargo service. At the outset of Outer Systems Conflict, the Molinari was modified by the Solstice Naval Yard and pressed into emergency service with the OSPN. The Molinari served in multiple roles, including as a marine carrier, flagship, and general capital ship. The Molinari served as the primary marine carrier in the Assault on Corvae Station as well as the Chicxulub Colony Assault. Molinari was eventually destroyed by the Þingeri Defense Grid during the Battle of Þingeri.
==History==
=== Stargate Line Service ===
The Guy Molinari was built by the Alterra Dockyard as Hull 8913 under the Moorline class of modular container ship, being launched in 16 April 2517. She was then commissioned two months later in 22 June 2517 by the Stargate Line company. The Molinari operated with the line for two years, during which she was involved in two incidents and had a largely uneventful career.
Molinari's first incident was upon leaving the Alterra Dockyard, resulting in the Molinari having a minor collision with the dockyard. It was ultimately determined by the Shelter Alliance Navy to be a result of a failure of a dockyard tug. Molinari would suffer another collision a year later with the ANS Scipio Africanus during port-in maneuvers at Ameyalli-Chicomoztoc Orbital Spaceport. Both ships sustained non-significant damage and the Stargate line was fined for the incident.
=== Protectorate Service ===
Shortly after the incident with the Scipio Africanus, the Guy Molinari was sent for repairs at the Alterra Dockyard when the Outer Systems Conflict started. Almost immediately after the conflict started, the Outer Systems Protectorate Navy commandeered the Guy Molinari at port at Chicxulub and she was sent to the Solstice Naval Yards for retrofitting.
