The Pursuit of Earthforce Destroyers was a running battle between the Earth Alliance Resistance and several Omega class destroyers crewed by Clark-loyalists. Following the Battle of Proxima III, Captain John Sheridan continued the campaign to retake Earth, but suffered significant resistance from Earthforce vessels along the way. After several ships had defected at Proxima III, he expected much the same response from forces down the road, especially given that the defectors now formed part of the Resistance fleet. However, the EAS Cadmus, EAS Hydra, and the EAS Delphi fought a pitched battle that resulted in the damage or destruction of several Resistance ships.
