The first mission of the ship was successful, evacuating a colony before the planet tore itself apart from internal seismic pressure. The second mission was to stop a defecting Starfleet Admiral from reaching Romulan space; Nemesis was intercepted and destroyed by 5 Norexean-class Warbirds, though she destroyed two and crippled two additional ships from the Romulan force, reportedly badly enough that at least one of them was scrapped rather than being repaired.

Despite the report of the ship's destruction by her former Commanding Officer, which was corroborated by numerous other members of the crew and Romulan sensor data, an unknown Achilles-class ship has been seen in the Ithassa region in recent months. Gorn sensor data shows the ship's registry as the USS Achilles, but this has not been confirmed by any specific Federation sources.  
Reports of the ship's demise were, to quote Mark Twain, "greatly exaggerated." There is an extended period during which the ship's whereabouts and activities are still shrouded in mystery, except that she changed her name back to her original registry. Achilles appeared in the Ithassa region and played a role in precipitating the [[Gorn_Conflict_of_2383|Gorn invasion]] of that region in 2383.  
 
After the conflict, Starfleet decided it was time to track down Achilles and bring her back into the fold. Commander Walker and the USS Ronin were assigned to that task. After a tense encounter involving the summary destruction of three Grendellai ships and the spacing of their boarding parties from the Ronin by the AI, the ship returned willingly to [[Deep Space 17]] and its newly expanded facilities for repairs and refitting.
