Mission #02: "Repairs"

2001
En route to the Minotia System, the suspected thief escapes custody aboard a shuttle and falls into a temporal rift. Following, the crew finds themselves in the year 2267 in the Mirror Universe under attack from Romulans, who are seeking to steal the Gladiator's far advanced warp core.


Mission #04: "Search and Rescue"
2001
Finally arriving at Minotia II, the Gladiator discovers the three other ships assigned to the test are destroyed, one having crashed on the planet, an ice world.

Mission #05: "Calm Before the Storm"
2001
The Gladiator docks at Starbase 565 for some much needed R&R. She also transfers the station's new CMO, Dr. Andrew Gunn, to 565. Captain Pitt even receives a promotion to Commodore. Word then starts coming in of a rapidly approaching threat.


Mission #06: "Gates of Hell"
2001
That threat is the Hirogen fleet consisting of about 40 vessels. Ships from Task Forces 21, 38, and 72 amass at Starbase 565 to repel the invasion, and after heavy losses, are successful.


Mission #07: "Bioship"
2001
Escorting a captive Hirogen ship to SFI, the Gladiator becomes infected with a computer virus that gives the ship's computer self-awareness.

Mission #08: "Brave New World"
2001
On a mission to track down the whereabouts of the missing U.S.S. Nemesis in the general direction of the Galactic Core, the Gladiator finds a cloaked star system housing a race far more advanced than the Federation. This race captured the Nemesis to copy the design. This would allow the Cyrollans to covertly cross Federation space to battle their enemy, the Krynn. To escape the Cyrollans and get out of a battlefield where Omega Particle explosives were the norm, Lieutenant Verminaard Kinslayer detonated one such device on a Cyrollan planet, destroying it.


Mission #09: "Different Paths"

Compounding matters, a Dominion Battleship joins in the fun.
