History
The Thera-class carrier Thessaly was under construction in 3067 and was due to enter service in 3070, at which point she would become the sixth vessel in her class to enter service, following the earlier FWLS Santorini, FWLS Sardis, FWLS Corinth, FWLS Delphi and FWLS Delos. Also constructed over the same period of time were a pair of Eagle-class frigates intended to serve as escorts for the Thessaly, the FWLS Leodegrance and FWLS Percival.[1]
Two of the sister ships to the Thessaly, the FWLS Corinth and FWLS Sardis, were suborned by the Word of Blake during the Jihad, along with a number of escort ships; while the Thessaly escaped being captured or controlled by the Blakists, one of her escort vessels, the Percival, was taken and was subsequently destroyed while fighting for the Blakists in the New Earth system in 3078.[2]
Notes
It is uncertain if the FWLS Thessaly actually entered service; the ship is not listed in Field Report: FWLM, although very few WarShips are mentioned by name in the Field Report.
