History
The FWLS Acari was one of the second block of Zechetinu-class corvettes to be launched by the Free Worlds League between 3059[1] and 3067.[2] More than half the fleet of Zechetinus in service to the League had been secretly infiltrated by personnel loyal to the Word of Blake and promptly defected to the Blakists during the Jihad, but the Acari was one of the ships that remained in loyalist hands, at least initially.[3]
The Acari was evidently badly damaged attempting to reinforce the defenders on Ohrensen in mid-February 3079 and was captured by Manei Domini forces.[4] It was then used as a Trojan Horse in the Blakist attack on Oriente in March 3079, inflicting critical damage to the Thera-class FWLS Santorini before being destroyed by Duchy of Oriente forces.[4][5][6]
