Kopsh, a Strike-class medium cruiser, was under the command of Grand Admiral Demetrius Zaarin.
This cruiser engaged the Immobilizer 418 cruiser Red Claw, which had been left adrift following a pirate assault that crippled its hyperdrive. The Kopsh's assault failed, resulting in its destruction at the hands of the loyalist Strike cruisers Nagan and Shotel, aided by Maarek Stele's Assault Gunboat.
The vessel's name, Z-Kopsh, served as a reference to its association with Zaarin, helping players remember its owner.
In the campaign against rogue TIE Defender technology within the Eva-T system, the Strike Cruiser saw use by four distinct groups: Imperials loyal to Thrawn, the renegade Zaarin, the Rneekii, and the Nami.
