The NTD Repulse was the command vessel of Rear Admiral Koth during his activities at Epsilon Pegasi.
At the end of the Battle for Epsilon Pegasi, the Repulse was ordered to defend two NTF cruisers which came under attack (Feint! Parry! Riposte!). The Admiral made the jump without hesitation and found himself confronted by the GTVA Colossus. The GTVA trap worked impeccably: the Repulse was unable to escape but the Admiral refused to surrender. He ordered his crew to approach the Colossus and impact it using kamikaze attack. Unfortunately for the admiral, the Colossus brought overwhelming firepower to bear and destroyed the Repulse. The death of Koth and the destruction of the Repulse marked the Liberation of Epsilon Pegasi.
