Overview: On November 6, 2570, the hull for the TCS Samantha Calderon was laid down in a ceremony full of fanfare at the Chandler Shipwrights Prometheus Shipyard orbiting New Columbia, deep in the Hyades Cluster. Protector Caterina Calderon attended, and in a 43-minute speech broadcast throughout the Cluster—eventually throughout the Concordat—marked the event with words that rang across the Periphery. “It is in hope that through peace will events guide us here in the Concordat. But hope is—by itself—nothing more than a flimsy shield against the aggression of others; who blinded by ambition, seek dominion over all free men and women. I tell you, fellow citizens, that the Samantha Calderon and her sister ships, and others like them that even now lie upon the drawing boards of great companies such as this one, across the width and breadth of the Concordat, will serve as that shield—that adamant shield—so that our hope may flourish in peace and prosperity. And should our efforts at peace be for naught, we take as our motto the ancient words ‘Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death’.”
However, this—the first (public) attempt by any periphery power to build a true battleship of the type used by the Hegemony—effort was plagued by problems throughout the construction of the Calderon class. None of the Concordat’s shipbuilders had any experience with such a large vessel, and none had ever attempted to even design a compact Kearny-Fuchida Drive Core massing nearly 500,000 tons; 37.5% larger than any ever before constructed in the Concordat. Problems with construction techniques and four separate drive redesigns during construction delayed the ship’s launch time and again. Finally, on March 7, 2578—two years after her originally scheduled completion date—, the Samantha Calderon was launched and commissioned into service. Additional ships were commissioned at the rate of one every two years—instead of one each year as originally planned—as supplies, equipment, personnel, and money were continually siphoned off by the war effort against the Star League.
As the war progressed, the Saucy Sam, the nickname bestowed on the ship by her crew, became regarded as a good luck charm. Participating in 10 major naval engagements, plus the grinding five year campaign of attrition in Flannagan’s Nebula from 2591-2596, the Samantha Calderon was often damaged—severely enough seven times to be sent to dry dock—but never lost. In every battle, she destroyed at least four times her own tonnage before being forced to retire from the field. Despite the terrible damage the Saucy Sam took, her crew had the lowest casualty rate of any damaged ship in the Taurian Fleet. Despite this luck, the Samantha Calderon was in dry-dock—for the eighth and final time—on September 22, 2596. The Station commander, Admiral Erik Crane, directed that the Saucy Sam, as well as all other damaged and incomplete ships be scuttled with nuclear demolitions charges, rather than surrendered intact to the SLDF forces soon to arrive on occupation duty.
Capabilities: Designed according to the Taurian Navy’s philosophy of WarShip design, the Samantha Calderon class ships were formidable opponents for their era. Capable of 2.5 g’s of acceleration and mounting 1,980 tons of Improved Ferro-Aluminum armor, these ships were faster than older Hegemony and Inner Sphere designs and better protected from hostile fire. Only with the newest Atreus and Farragut class battleships of the Free Worlds League and Terran Hegemony did the Inner Sphere naval forces achieve individual ship parity.
With just four DropShip collars, the Calderon’s appeared weak in transport capacity, but Taurian WarShips were not designed as transports. These ships were fighting vessels only. In the TCN design philosophy a transport should be a transport, a WarShip should be a WarShip. In normal operations, the Calderon class vessels would be equipped with four Harbinger class assault DropShips to provide close-escort during combat operations.
[Editor’s note: no Harbinger class vessel survived the Reunification War. Star League records suggest a heavily armed and armored craft massing around 9,000-10,000 tons, with a light battery of capital missiles and a heavy conventional armament as well as advanced Ferro-Aluminum armor. No surviving records have surfaced in the contemporary Concordat records of this design; possibly due to Star League destruction after the war to prevent this ship design from ever resurfacing. Some historians in our order feel the Harbinger class was designed to accompany the Calderon’s as a deliberate countermeasure to Hegemony—and later Star League—Congress/Pentagon groups, though this is still speculative.]
Thirty-six fighters (typically six each of Sabre, Centurion, Hellcat, Lightning, Eagle, and Thunderbird class aerospace fighters) were embarked in two separate launch bays to port and starboard. Up to six fighters could be launched or recovered simultaneously. Twelve small craft (normally 200-ton Conestoga class assault shuttles) were also carried, six in each launch bay. These shuttles could use the same launch/recovery systems as the onboard fighter squadrons. One hundred and fifty marines trained in zero-G operations provided security and conducted boarding operations.
As normal for Taurian Navy vessels, the Calderon class included a heavy flak-belt of sixty-four Hyades Weapons Consortium (HWC) Retaliation class 10 auto-cannon for their inner belt of anti-fighter defenses. Twenty-four Norman/Raytheon capital missile launchers (eight N/R Killer Whale launchers, eight N/R White Shark launchers, and eight N/R Barracuda launchers) provided long-range sniping potential, as well as the outer anti-fighter defensive belt. Each missile launcher was provided with an individual magazine of forty missiles. The Killer Whale missile launchers also had a separate radiation-shielded missile magazine containing five nuclear-tipped missiles each, for a total load-out of forty nuclear tipped missiles.
The main firepower of the Calderon class consisted of thirty-two Jankowski Mark IV class 30 Naval Autocannons, twenty-four High Energy Systems Nova medium Naval PPCs, and sixteen Martin-Gordan Sunburn class 55 Naval Lasers. These weapons were evenly spaced across the ship—forcing the enemy to endure a withering hail of fire regardless of their route of approach. Each autocannon—Naval or conventional—was provided with a magazine containing fifty bursts of ammunition at standard fire rates.
In a move that—rather surprisingly—the Hegemony did not often make, the designers of the Samantha Calderon provided sufficient heat sinks to fire every single weapon built into the hull simultaneously. This greatly increased the effectiveness of Calderon class ships as they could—and did—engage ships surrounding them without having to leave one or more enemy free to make their own attacks unhindered.
Although not designed as transports, the Samantha Calderon’s provided four 115-meter grav decks for her crew and could embark up to 96 passengers in reasonable comfort. Supplies—including water, food, fuel, and spare parts—were in sufficient quantities to allow deployments of up to one year in length. The main cargo holds were small in comparison to Hegemony designs of the same time period, but were deemed sufficient for their designed mission and areas of operation.
In closing, the Calderon class vessels were excellent ships for their time. However, their late introduction during the Reunification War and the lack of sufficient numbers throughout the war could not in and of itself alter the fate of the Taurian Concordat. Had full-scale production of this class begun even twenty years earlier—and two or three dozen such ships been available at the beginning of the conflict—history could well have been re-written.
[Editor’s note: The writer of the above passage was a former citizen of the Concordat before his induction into ComStar. He has been recommended for a re-education session with ROM to remove any partisan leanings that he may still posses. Blessed be Blake!]
Deployment: The Taurian Concordat Navy designed the Calderon class battleships to be deployed in specifically designed Task Groups, using the most advanced ships in their fleet. Each Calderon class battleship was intended to be accompanied by a Hector class frigate, two Thunderer class destroyers, and six Harbinger class DropShips. In addition to these WarShips, each Task Group was to be assigned a St. Helens class Fleet Replenishment Vessel carrying fuel and munitions, escorted by two Boxer class corvettes. In practice, however, due to the pressing needs of the war, these Task Groups never materialized. Only the Samantha Calderon actually ever had the proper configuration of ships assigned to her Task Group. Other ships of the class were assigned what was available at the time they deployed, and as ships were destroyed over the course of the war, even the Samantha Calderon could not replace her escorts quickly enough.
The TCN responded to this by unorthodox—by prewar standards—methods. At least once during the Reunification War, at the Battle of Montour, on September 8, 2587, four Calderon class battleships were deployed without any escorts other than two old Resolution class destroyers. The Samantha Calderon, Tracy Ashton Pendleton, Sigur Fonn, and Robert St. John, escorted by the destroyers Reprisal and Revenge, as well as sixteen Harbinger class assault DropShips, attacked the SLDF and Davion fleet escorting General Forlough’s III Corps and the Davion Auxiliary Corps at Montour.
This action followed the destruction of the Taurian Guard Corps at Diefenbaker less than two months previously. During that engagement, the TCN took heavy losses attempting to support the ground troops, and both the Samantha Calderon and Tracy Ashton Pendleton were heavily damaged in the fighting. Both ships had been so damaged in fact that the Star League Navy had reported them as kills.
Thus, when they ambushed Forlough at Montour, their presence came as a major surprise. Unfortunately for the Taurian Navy, they were outnumbered six-to-one at Montour, and the enemy fleet had two Farragut class battleships. While the Taurian force inflicted heavy damage on the Davion Auxiliary Corps (destroying roughly ¼ of their transports) and destroyed seventeen Star League and Davion WarShips—including the Oliver Hazard Perry, a Farragut class battleship—, both the Sigur Fonn and Robert St. John were lost, as were the Reprisal and Revenge. With damage still unrepaired from 3rd Diefenbaker, the remaining TCN ships were forced to withdraw. The five surviving Harbinger class DropShips launched deliberate ramming attacks on the enemy, detonating their last nuclear warheads on impact to cover the battlewagons retreat. Montour fell shortly thereafter.
Historical Developments:
[Editor’s note: the passage below has never been confirmed, although surviving Star League records do confirm that 68 SLDF ships were dispatched to the Taurian Concordat in 2648 and did remain there for 57 months. Our own records—blessed be Blake that he instructed us to retain all knowledge—suggest that the legend described below is, in point of fact, a hoax. However, should it ever prove to be true, then ComStar must consider either removing these ships to a safer location or destroying them; in order to protect the Taurian people from the conflicts that would arise should the Great Houses learn of these “ghost ships”.]
The story of the Samantha Calderon does not end on September 22, 2596, however. The history books show that on July 23, 2648, a very sick, very old man named Pieter Durant was admitted to the Taurus Veterans Hospital. His physician of record was Doctor Abigail Larson, an SLDF doctor on liaison duty in the Concordat. Mr. Durant was diagnosed with terminal cancer and admitted later that afternoon. While making her rounds, Dr. Larson spoke at length with Mr. Durant. While no recording of that conversation has ever been located—even though Star League records and transcripts of interviews show that she did record the conversation—it is believed that Mr. Durant revealed to her that he had once served aboard the Samantha Calderon herself—and that she and eighteen other WarShips of the Taurian Navy still existed. Whether he intended to tweak an SLDF physician with a wild tale, or whether it was in fact the truth, former Master Chief Petty Officer Durant told Dr. Larson that on September 22, 2596, he was aboard the ship at Prometheus Station, orbiting New Columbia.
According to the history books, when word of the surrender arrived, Admiral Erik Crane, the station commander, decided to scuttle the damaged and incomplete ships rather than hand them over to the SLDF as prizes of war. Master Chief Durant then told Dr. Larson that this had been a lie, a cover-up. Instead of destroying the ships, Admiral Crane ordered any vessel capable of making a jump to undock and stand five thousand kilometers off of the station. According to Durant, in addition the Samantha Calderon, these other ships included the Tracy Ashton Pendleton, the Heather Scott, and the Ian MacLeod—all Calderon class battleships, either damaged or in their last months of construction. Fifteen other ships—two cruisers, five frigates, five destroyers, two corvettes, and a troop transport—were also capable of leaving dock that day.
Admiral Crane then ordered the crew of the Saucy Sam to nuke the station and all the remaining ships docked there. After that he jumped his small fleet to a hidden jump point deep in Flannagan’s Nebula, known only to senior officers of the TCN. Accompanying this force was a small civilian JumpShip and two transport DropShips. At this hidden location, the crews shut down all systems aboard the WarShips and secured the vessels. According to Durant this took six days, during which the JumpShip ship recharged her drive. Once the recharge was complete, all of the WarShips were opened to the vacuum of space. Now just inert metal in a stable orbit, these ships could remain hidden for hundreds of years—and still be restored to working condition.
The JumpShip returned to New Columbia where SLDF forces had not yet arrived to occupy the planet. The crew was sworn to secrecy—and none save Crane and the JumpShip crew knew of the coordinates of the hidden depot. Durant then told Dr. Larson that Crane left a gift aboard the JumpShip—to insure that the secret would never be revealed. One of the Saucy Sam’s few remaining nuclear warheads, with a detonator tied to the KF control computer. When the JumpShip attempted to jump outsystem the following week, the warhead exploded, killing all aboard.
Dr. Larson stayed with Master Chief Durant throughout the night; he died at 0317 on July 24, 2648. Dr. Larson claims to have reported the entire incident to her SLDF superiors at the embassy on Taurus; as well as having turned over the recording of the conversation. That recording has never surfaced in any known record. What is known is that the embassy sent a message to Terra the following day, and that within a month 68 SLDF WarShips and survey vessels arrived—against the protest of the Taurian government—under the command of Admiral Helen Kincaid, along with 900 investigators from various Star League bureaus. For the next 57 months these ships searched the Nebula for these nineteen missing WarShips from half a century earlier. Meanwhile the investigators pursued the rumor on Taurus, Samantha, Jamestown, and New Columbia. Crew members from the ships listed in Durant’s account were searched for, any survivors rounded up and questioned. There were only four, and three were senile. The fourth refused to speak to SLDF interrogators and his attorney secured his release before chemical interrogation could be undertaken. This man died while the matter was being handled in the courts, having never given a statement to an SL investigator.
The investigators attempted to search the Taurian Naval Archives on Taurus. The custodial staff at the former headquarters facility of the Taurian Navy informed the investigators that with the disbanding of the naval fifty-two years previously, all records had been shredded and disposed of. [Editor’s Note: This was a lie. The records had been removed and hidden, though certainly some of the more sensitive were destroyed. After the Amaris coup, the hidden repository was returned to the Naval Archives and restored as best the Taurian government could. ComStar agents still have not obtained a complete copy of all documents stored there.] Admiral Crane was never found, though he was confirmed as the commander of Prometheus Station through newspaper microrecords. No date of his death, obituary, or grave marker was ever located.
Three years after the investigation began; a frustrated Star League bureaucrat inadvertently leaked the nature of the investigation to a Taurian investigative reporter with whom he was having an affair. His statement about the hunt for a fleet of “ghost ships” apparently crewed by “the spirits of men that we can’t confirm ever lived” made the papers across Taurus by the next morning, the cluster by the end of the week, the rest of the Concord by the next month, and Terra three months afterwards. The Taurians were ecstatic, believing that one of their naval officers had out-smarted and hoodwinked the Leaguers—and saved not just some of their fleet, but the gallant old Saucy Sam herself—who were now wearing themselves and their ships to the breaking point trying to search the Nebula.
Finally, after fifty-four months of searching, Admiral Kincaid sent a dispatch to Terra, reading, in part, “. . . .and so in conclusion, my Lord, there has been no evidence whatsoever to attribute to the veracity of this man Durant. We cannot even confirm if he was a serving member of the Taurian Navy at the time of the Surrender. Task Force 47 and Task Force 73 have searched the Nebula for the better part of four and a half years—and we could search for another century and still find nothing. The Nebula is immense, even with the sixty-eight ships you’ve assigned this mission, and having worked at this task for the past fifty-four months, we have only surveyed 4.2% of the entire Nebula’s volume. In my official recommendation, my Lord, the whole thing is a hoax—a deliberate hoax designed to wear our ships and crews to the bone searching for something that does not exist.”
Three months later, all of Kincaid’s ships and the investigators were recalled. The search was over. Ever since, stories and rumors have passed around the Concordat about the fleet of ghost ships floating in the Nebula. These stories have all eventually been proven false—so far at least.
