Prologue - MISSION 1
Fighter squadron: 508th Loaded Dice
Description: Capture smuggler freighters suspected of supporting Earth Alliance assets.
Background
Rotating with the GTD Phoenicia from the Shivan FIREWATCH Response Group into peacekeeping operations in Delta Serpentis, negotiations between the Galactic Terran-Vasudan Alliance and Earth Alliance have soured in the six months since the re-connection to Sol. GTVI operatives suspect EA agents have been reaching out to anti-GTVA factions, such as extremist factions and crime syndicates.
Your squadron is to investigate smugglers affiliated with the Capello Nero Crime Syndicate. Capture their cargo craft and neutralize the escorts.
Walkthrough
You have one four-ship wing of GTF Perseus fighters armed for security: Guns consist of the HL-12 and SD-14, missiles consist of Stilettos and Shockers.
Launch from the Phoenicia's hangar, hang around for some exposition for two minutes, then jump to the asteroid belt containing the Nav Beacon. Scan the beacon, and you'll be routed to the Ross 128 Jump Node.
You'll come across the target freighters to disable: the Guan Yu and Silver Zephyr. Scratch their escorts: they consist of Aries and Pisces wings of Hercules Mark II fighters.
Once the convoy is neutralized, scan them and await for the Lambda and Omega Haulers. Once they haul away, you can return to base.
