(“The Changing Face of Evil,” “When it Rains…,” and “Tacking Into the Wind” [DS9])

  • A Klingon ship accidentally stumbles on a way to resist the Breen weapon. While Starfleet and the Romulans try to reverse-engineer this for their own ships, Chancellor Gowron orders ever-more-aggressive attacks by the Klingon Defense Force, in part to discredit Martok in the face of the latter’s growing popularity. Realizing that Gowron’s recklessness is sabotaging the war effort, Worf challenges Gowron, defeats him, and installs Martok as the new chancellor. (“When it Rains…” and “Tacking Into the Wind” [DS9])

  • Damar learns that the Dominion has had his family killed. Unbeknownst to him, his son Sakal has survived and lives on the run on Cardassia. (“Tacking Into the Wind” [DS9]; “An Errant Breeze” by Gordon Gross [SNW3])

  • The Cardassian resistance captures a Jem’Hadar ship outfitted with the Breen energy-dampening weapon, giving the Federation the means to neutralize it by studying the weapon itself. (“Tacking Into the Wind” [DS9])

  • A team of cryptographers on Starbase 92 are able to crack the Dominion’s latest code, with the help of a Ferengi trader. (SCE: War Stories Book 1 by Keith R.A. DeCandido)

  • Now able to defend their ships against the Breen weapon, the allied forces go on the offensive, aided by Damar’s resistance. (“Extreme Measures” and “The Dogs of War” [DS9])

  • The U.S.S. Sentinel is the only surviving ship in a mission to sabotage a Dominion outpost, which paves the way for an offensive in the Orias system. (SCE: War Stories Book 1 by Keith R.A. DeCandido)

  • Several Klingon ships, including the I.K.S. Pagh, fight Jem’Hadar and Breen ships at the Marcan system. The Klingons are victorious—culminating in Commander Klag defeating the surviving Jem’Hadar and Vorta single-handedly on Marcan V. (TNG: Diplomatic Implausibility by Keith R.A. DeCandido; “A Song Well Sung” by Robert Greenberger [TDW])

  • The da Vinci must dispose of an alien ship that has entered the Randall V system, which contains a Federation listening post that must be kept secret from the Dominion. Commander Salek is killed over the course of the mission. (SCE: Collective Hindsight Book 1 by Aaron Rosenberg)

  • A new Defiant is assigned to Deep Space 9. The Cardassian resistance is betrayed and broken, though Damar, Kira, and Garak survive and continue to rally the people on Cardassia Prime itself. (“The Dogs of War” [DS9]; “Face Value” by Una McCormack [PC])

  • The Excalibur returns from their time-traveling mission, having missed their return point by eighteen months. They encounter a Romulan ship, thinking them to be an enemy, and have to deal with the consequences. (NF: Double Time by Peter David, Michael Collins, & David Roach [CB]; “Stone Cold Truths” by Peter David [TDW])

  • The Defiant leads a major offensive into Dominion territory, aided and abetted by a large number of Cardassian ships that turn on their allies.
