History
Word of Blake's WarShip Fleet would see its official beginning in 3057, when the Free Worlds League presented the order with two salvaged ships: a Vincent-class corvette and an Essex II-class destroyer. These would be commissioned as the WoBS Blake's Redemption and WoBS Deliverance, respectively. These gifts came about as a result of WoB assisting the Free Worlds League since 3052 with the secret locations of mothballed SLDF WarShips, and the technological assistance necessary to restore them.[1]
