NEG Fleet

The Federation Fleet was the deep space exploratory and defense service maintained by the New Earth Government (also known as the Federation). Its principal functions included the advancement of knowledge about the galaxy and its inhabitants, the advancement of science and technology, the defense of the inhabitants of the Sol System, and the outer system colonies and the facilitation of diplomacy.

History of the NEG (Federation) Fleet
The Federation Fleet was formed after the death of the DNC Supreme Leader in 2078 in orbit of Earth. It originally comprised of elements from the DNC Fleet, UNSC Fleet, TBL Fleet, and the TBL Cargo Fleet.

The fleet was created to protect the evacuating colonies from the coming swarm of Marduk's Fleet. The outdated Liberty Class cruisers were used to escort evacuation transports from evacuating civilians from outer colony's.

One of the first engagements of the war was an attack on a convoy transporting civilians. The 2 escorting Liberty class cruisers were being decimated until the Centurion, a ship built by Captain Firefox, a well-known hero from the Colonial Wars arrived. The Centurion launched 2 Lotus Fighter's and successfully disabled the attacking ships, allowing time for the convoy to escape.

The first major engagement in the war was the Battle of Centari 5, where a fleet of Marduk's ships attacked a human colony. During the initial engagement, they lost a squadron of Liberty Class cruisers. These ships were destroyed, but a new order said that Liberty's would all function in squadrons of four and would only engage 1 of Marduk's ships at a time.

The Liberty's managed to destroy several of Marduk's cruisers however they eventually overpowered the Liberty's. Fortunately, a relief task force commanded by Admiral Nelson arrived in the system and held off Marduk's ships long enough for the remaining citizens of Centari 5 to evacuate to the Solar System.
