The Njord Fleet was an Erusean Navy fleet division that was deployed during the Lighthouse War.
Etymology
The fleet's name is an alternate spelling of Njörðr of Norse mythology, which is used by the flagship carrier. The individual ships also contain additional references, such as Freyr; Hœnir; and Skaði.
History
During the Lighthouse War, the Njord Fleet served as the Erusean Navy's primary naval force. The fleet utilized the supply base at Snider's Top and was to be deployed to eastern Usea, where they would target Osean forces stationed there.[1]
On August 10, 2019, the LRSSG deployed the Cyclops and Strider Squadrons to Snider's Top to destroy the supply bases and the fleet. The entire fleet was ultimately sunk in the battle.[1]
To make up for the loss of the Njord Fleet, the submarine Alicorn was formally commissioned and pressed into service by the Erusean Navy the day after.[2]
