You dú Xin-Zàng

History

The You dú Xin-Zàng was an unknown-class JumpShip that was involved in the Black May events. Members of the Thuggee cult targeted political and military targets within the St. Ives Compact. The attack on St. Ives was to be launched by the You dú Xin-Zàng, carrying a single DropShip and a lone old Lucifer fighter loaded with rockets of the gas. However, during the final leg the ship suffered a missjump and was almost destroyed. The crew was killed or left half dead. The You dú Xin-Zàng was boarded by a Compact rescue team lead by Leftenant General Simone Devon, but when they found the Lucifer pilot still in his cockpit, he launched the rockets, killing the general and most of the other people aboard.
