=== Battle of the Strait of St. Peter === On July 25, the ''[[ZMS Lance Pelio]]'' and the ''ZMS Clift'' began pursuing the ''EIS Triton'' and an unmarked Xiomeran cargo vessel known as "Q Ship." The fleeing vessels were accompanied by six Xiomeran speed boats. This incident began the [[Battle of the Strait of St. Peter|protracted campaign]] which saw federal and insurgent forces battling for control of the Strait of Saint Peter. The ''Pelio'' was first attacked by the smaller speed boats, and lost at least 12 sailors before destroying one of the speed boats. The ship then engaged the ''Triton'', scoring a direct hit on the corvette's rear side. Shortly after, the Xiomeran Q Ship struck the ''Lance Pelio'' with a torpedo, damaging the engine systems on the Zamastanian frigate. The ''Triton'' then opened fire, striking the bow of the ''Lance Pelio'' and causing it to list and sink thirty minutes later. 67 sailors were killed on the ''Lance Pelio''. The Eirian and Xiomeran ships then were flanked by the addition of two Eirian battleships, the ''EIS Liberty'' and the ''EIS Napoleon''. They provided retreat cover to the damaged ''Triton'', but were followed for roughly 60 miles out into open waters by the ''[[ZMS Tofiniua]]'', the ''[[ZMS Jackson]]'', and the ''[[ZMS Whiterock]]'', as well as a combined fighter jet and bomber squadron. The retreating fleet took heavy fire during the retreat, with all ships receiving at least minimal damage. The ''EIS Napoleon'' was hit by frigate fire, resulting in an explosion that destroyed their movement, and a cluster of bombs dropped by the plane squadron resulted in the ship's quick capsizing and sinking. 153 total Eirian sailors were killed during the course of the battle. ====North's Last Stand==== ''{{Main|North's Last Stand}}'' ====Sinking of the ZMS Grissh====
