History

Constructed in 2941, the Narbonne was the first of class of the Dante-class WarShip[1] and in 3062 was a part of the Com Guard Second Fleet, operating from the ComStar fleet base at Ross 248.[2] The CSV Narbonne remained in service with ComStar as of 3067,[3] but was subsequently deployed on the abortive Case White attack on Terra in March 3068;[4] The Narbonne wasn't salvaged by the Word of Blake[5] and wasn't reported to have survived in ComStar service[6] indicating that the Narbonne was destroyed during Case White.

The Narbonne was originally believed to have been salvaged by the Word of Blake and to have served as part of the defensive squadron for the Titan Shipyards during Operation SCOUR's assault on the complex,[7] but this was later determined to have been a case of mistaken identity.[5][8]

Notes

The destruction of all three ComStar Dante class vessels was confirmed by BattleTech Devloper Øystein Tvedten in the Catalyst Game Lab BattleTech forums:

No ComStar Dantes were captured by the Word of Blake. Bordeaux died at Luyten, Monpellier (sic) at Columbus, and Narbonne bit it during Case White.
