Ricol maintained an office in a spartan cabin aboard the ''Alpha'', which apparently served as something of a command ship for his operations abroad. The ''Alpha'', which bore the red chevron of Ricol's flag,<ref>''Decision at Thunder Rift'', p. 200</ref> was among the DropShips that brought Ricol's forces to [[Trellwan]] (and later evacuated them) in [[3024]].<ref>''Decision at Thunder Rift''</ref>

Similarly, in [[3028]] the ''Alpha'' carried Ricol and his forces to [[Helm]] as part of a group of six DropShips posing as merchantmen and carried by two [[JumpShip]]s, one of them the ''Huntress''.<ref>''The Price of Glory'', pp. 198, 201</ref> On this mission the ''Alpha'' carried a lance of [[Galleon]] tanks and an infantry company numbering ninety men.<ref>''The Price of Glory'', p. 202</ref> It later took off from Helmdown spaceport, joined Ricol's other five approaching vessels and set down in the Vermillion Plains where the Gray Death Legion was in the process of uncovering and defending the [[Helm Memory Core]]. This suggests the ships including the ''Alpha'' were of spheroid design and could land and take off vertically.
