History

In 3061, the Potemkin-class carrier CDS Red Tide was a WarShip in service with the Clan Diamond Shark touman.[2]

In 3078, the Red Tide served as a part of Task Force EARTHBOUND, the WarShip flotilla responsible for clearing the naval defenses around Terra as a part of the allied coalition efforts to capture the planet from the Word of Blake.[3] During the battle Vice Admiral Walker Clay, Commanding Officer of the Fox-class corvette Indomitable, disobeyed orders and tried to destroy the WoBS Beneficence, formerly the Avalon-class cruiser FCS Melissa Davion, which had been captured and suborned by the Word of Blake. Clay ordered Rear Admiral Marcelle of the FSS Admiral Michael Saille to follow, and the Indomitable's first officer was shot and killed while attempting to remove Clay from command. Clay's actions cost Task Force EARTHBOUND part of its missile defense cover and the Clan Diamond Shark vessel Red Tide was struck and destroyed by multiple nuclear warheads. The Indomitable was lost with nearly a ninety percent loss of life though Walker Clay survived, and the Admiral Saille was critically damaged and Rear Admiral Marcelle was killed during the battle.[1]
