Cardassian Starship Report
All four of the preceding pictures are Galor-class warships.
Obsidian Order
The ruthless and frighteningly efficient Cardassian internal security police. The Obsidian Order maintained an elaborate network that kept virtually every Cardassian citizen under surveillance. Technically, the Cardassian military and the Obisidian Order come under the politcal authority of the Detapa Council. But in practice, each entity acts independently. The Order was expressly forbidden from having any warships or any other military equipment. Nevertheless, in 2371, the Obsidian Order combined forces with the Romulan Tal'Shiar to assemble a massive fleet in the Orias System in preparation for a covert first strike mission against the Founders of the Dominion. The joint fleet was ambushed by 150 Jem'Hadar warships hiding in the Omarion Nebula, resulting in the annihilation of all the attacking vessels. The encounter effectively eliminated the Obsidian Order as a viable military force in the Alpha Quadrant, substantially weakening the Cardassian empire as a whole. The Order had opposed the peace treaty signed with Bajor in 2371. It was later learned that a few Cardassians had survived the disastrous attack in the Omarion Nebula and were being held captive by the Jem'Hadar on an asteroid in the Gamma Quadrant.
