U.S.S. Essex

U.S.S. ESSEX
NCC 173
DAEDALUS MK I
COMMISSIONED 2161.08
Third in the class of Daedalus
class starships, the USS Essex served under the command of Captain Bryce
Shumar for six years. Accompanied by the USS Archon and the USS Horizon,
the Daedalus class starships helped establish the legacy of starship exploration
in the early days of the Federation. On stardate 2167.09, the Essex was
caught in a electromagnetic storm near the Mab-Bu system and was reported
lost with all hands. |

U.S.S. ESSEX
NCC 1719
CONSTITUTION MK II
COMMISSIONED 2204.01
Sixth of the MK II Constitution
class heavy cruisers, the Essex was constructed to maintain the balance
of power along the Klingon Neutral Zone after the Four Years War. Mounting
the latest in phaser technology and stronger, more efficient shield generators
than its MK I predecessors, the Constitution MK II's are the most advanced
ships in known space.The USS Essex was christened from the Sol IV shipyards
on stardate 2204.01, under the command of Commodore Istvan Kolsac, a seasoned
veteran of the Four Years War. The Essex was sent out to patrol the Klingon
border and was present at the Organian standoff on stardate 2208.01
Not long after this, Kolsac suffered an unfortunate and untimely death
during a geologic survey expedition on stardate 2208.30. The command was
passed on to Capt. Boberroneus T.Curp on stardate 2209.02, who currently
holds command. The Essex now patrols near the Organian Peace Treaty Zone. |
Continuity Note
According to the Star Trek
Encyclopedia II, the Constitution class USS Essex is listed as having
the hull number NCC-1697, and in The Ships of the Starfleet, it
has the hull number NCC-1727 . Granted that both references can arguably
be the official Star Trek lore, I'm using the FASA record for this
particular campaign, specifically The Federation Ship Recognition Manual.
