The Crucible participated in the First Battle of Mobetta, arriving after the battle had begun in an attempt to evacuate the crew of the starship components factory Soren. All ships evacuating personnel to the Crucible were destroyed, however, and the cruiser was forced to retreat when it became a target. The Crucible then launched two squadrons to cover its escape. While both squadrons were destroyed, they did buy the cruiser time to flee into hyperspace.
