}}In the FreeSpace 2 intro cutscene, which depicts the [[Battle of Deneb (2335)]], the [[SD Lucifer|SD ''Lucifer'']]'s beam weapon pierces the hull of an unknown ''Orion''-class Destroyer, causing it to careen out of control. 32 years later, the abandoned hulk of the ship is shown in orbit around Deneb where it remains remarkably intact save for the penetration damage, before fading into the background as it is overshadowed by the rebuilt GTVA fleet led by the ''[[GTVA Colossus|Colossus]]''.

[[Volition]] was fairly clear this ship was not the [[GTD Galatea|''Galatea'']]. A community member asked if the ship could be called the ''Legion''. [[Volition]] responded, "Call it that if you want," so the ship is generally referred to as the ''Legion''.

{{non-canon section|In the Silent Threat: Reborn continuity, the Legion served as the central command ship for GTI before it was destroyed. Its destruction at the Battle of Deneb led to the decentralization of GTI operations, which in turn enabled R&D to launch the Hades Rebellion.
