HMAMC Scheherazade was a Trojan-class Armed Merchant Cruiser of the Royal Manticoran Navy.
Technical data[]
Scheherazade was originally a standard Caravan-class freighter. As part of Project Trojan Horse, the ship was modified into a Q-ship for anti-piracy operations in the Silesian Confederacy, as were three other vessels of the same class. (HH6)
History[]
Commanded by Captain Samuel Webster, Scheherazade formed part of Task Group 1037, a force of Q-ships under the overall command of Honor Harrington that was sent to the Silesian Confederacy to fight piracy.
While trolling systems in the Silesian Confederacy for pirates, Scheherazade was jumped by two People's Navy Sword-class heavy cruisers in the Tyler's Star System. Unable to flee, and under orders to prepare for boarding, Scheherazade allowed the ships to close in, before firing two broadsides, destroying PNS Falchion and severely crippling the other cruiser, which was ordered to prepare for boarding by its assumed prey.
