Operation Lovely Angel was the "official" designation for the first Starfleet battle simulation conducted on behalf of Starfleet in late 2365, under the observation and mediation of Zakdorn Master Strategist, Sirna Kolrami. This wargame simulation took place in the Braslota system, between the USS Enterprise-D, under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, and the eighty-year-old star cruiser USS Hathaway, under the command of Captain William T. Riker.
