AW Good Sunrise

The **AW *Good Sunrise*** was a Legion of the Fourteenth Battlegroup recovered from the Alpha New Biscay system by Captain Asher Wells on April 8, 206. The discovery came after accepting a mission from the Luddic Church to scan an unrelated site in the system. It was simply floating around the Gas Giant temporarily named Alpha New Biscay I.

It had loading damage, erratic fuel injector, malfunctioning comms and degraded shields.

It was offloaded in the Corvus system on May 27 due to incapability at the time of keeping it active.

Limping back into the Core Systems from the loss in the Battle of Zennow Den, Captain Asher reclaimed the Legion into his fleet on January 21, 207, making it his flagship and restoring it. At the same time, he refit it, adding auxiliary thrusters, efficiency overhaul, integrated targeting unit, recovery shuttles and expanded magazines, with making the third one a permanent installment into the capital ship.

It first saw combat on February 22, 207 on the distant Alpha Troano system at its fringe jump point against a fleet guarding a domain era probe. After two more battles in the system dragging into March, it became obvious the system was a useful and somewhat profitable milk run.

On March 21 it fought its first Bastion-class, the *DSS Ismael-Wu* in the Gamma Abandon expedition in its namesake system itself, contributing greatly to its destruction.

It was brought again in the Stirbog expedition, where it destroyed its first Brillian-class ship relatively easily, the *TTDS Tycoon* guarding the Research Station orbiting the black hole at the heart of the Gamma Azathe Armurrus system. Close to the Stirbog, the expedition was accosted by pirates led by Callisto Phobos, ensuing the Battle of Alkonos Gravity Well where the Legion was decisive in a swift victory, downing most of the enemies, including the flagship *ISS Antion* as both its second casualty and that of the battle. After arriving in the Stirbog system, it was forced into the Battle of Stirbog Gate against yet another fleet of scavenger pirates in which it was much more decisive, even with a second lose-less victory.

On February 13, 210 after arriving in the docks of his first colony Pelesius and celebrating its rise to size 4, he decided to store the *Good Sunrise* and take as his flagship the Apogee *AW Heart of Darkness*, though the GS would be used alongside his other Legion in the future. It was recovered on December 24 on the eve of the second battle of Pelesius and continued to be the Captain's flagship. On April 1, 211 it repaired the erratic fuel injector and on August 3 its degraded shields.

The *Good Sunrise* was permanently lost following the Battle of Neter Jump Point on July 11, 213. Captain Asher blamed himself for the loss for not emergency burning sooner as he arrived into hyperspace. Another mistake was noted the recovery of a relatively unimportant ship while taxing the fleet's technicians, who couldn't perform their miracle on something that mattered. Yet another mistake was Captain Asher's aggressive attitude in piloting the *GS*, thinking it near indestructible and putting it under the fire of too many ships, which resulted in its destruction.
