The Lost Fleet: Protect Arriana
When the Dominion’s Lost Fleet appeared in 2401, Fourth Fleet and the USS Resolute were mobilised to meet the threat. Given the captain, Raan Mason’s, experience with ground combat, the Resolute was dispatched to Arriana Prime where a large cohort of Jem’Hadar had managed to land on the surface.
Even though a Rhode Island class does not have the largest crew in the fleet, they turned out to have a larger than average number of combat capable personnel on board. En-route to Arriana Prime, contact was made with a civilian livestock transporter, the Morningstar to help with the evacuation of civilians in the affected areas of the planet.
Upon arrival, Resolute’s combat teams were shuttled down to the surface to take strategic locations and organise defences with whatever was left of any civilian forces they could find. With the Morningstar’s arrival, civilians in the path of the Jem’Hadar’s advance were evacuated from the area.
Unfortunately, the Jem’Hadar were not so easily beaten. Evading the combat patrols they attacked the evacuation point, causing one of the Morningstar’s transporter rafts to crash. The second raft swiftly followed, crashed deliberately into the evacuation area and killing the Jem’Hadar strike force.
At Fourth Fleet’s call to arms, the Resolute left orbit of Arriana Prime to join the battle of Farpoint.
Configuration
Main Article: Rhode Island Class Scout
The Resolute is a Rhode Island-class scout that follows the stock configuration, apart from an expanded crew lounge on deck three. This space, called 'the Pit' is primarily used as a lounge and bar, but can be quickly adapted to become a barracks or an auxiliary medical bay, should the need arise to transport larger numbers in the case of evacuation or other mission parameters.
