History
At Io, General Hague in command of the Alexander along with friendly ships engaged those of President Clarke's where his compatriot vessels allowed him to escape despite taking damage during the skirmish. This came as a result of martial law being declared in the Earth Alliance leading to riots and uprisings across human space. Hague attempted to call upon others in the military and the disbanded Earth Senate to rise up against Clarke. However, four of the five cruisers that defected were destroyed whilst Hague himself was on the run. (Episode: Point of No Return) The crew of the Alexander managed to intercept a message from Earthforce Command that saw bombing runs made on Mars after it refused to obey President Clarke's order of martial law. This campaign against Mars was stated to continue until the Mars Provisional Government followed Earth's orders whilst rebel forces arriving at Babylon 5 saw loyalist ships being deployed to take control of the station.
