-''FreeSpace: Reunited'' drew into attention in January 2014. However, the concept is radically different: instead of the GTVA allying with the CDF, as the heritages of the Colonial government and its civilisation are destroyed some more than 150,000 years ago, the GTVA finds itself battling with the Cylons.

However, The E and General Balutta wanted a 5-mission demo or mini-campaign to be ship in order to get the people excited about the project and start working on it.

	It is 2415, more than 150,400 years after the Fall of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, eighty years following the [[Shivan]] attack on [[Ross 128]] and the start of the [[Great War]], and forty-eight years after the end of the [[Second Shivan Incursion]]. Using Knossos-derived technology, the [[GTVA]] have finally made intersystem jumps through unstable nodes and even without using nodes, much like the Shivans did, reestablishing the link between Delta Serpentis to Sol, the birthplace of the Terrans. However, Sol turned out to be devastated for some time prior. Then, the GTVA soon faces an enemy that once destroyed humanity a long ago...

 === Original concept ===
-'''''FreeSpace: Reunited''''' started off as a two-man project by NFSRacer and Soren in 2010, aiming for the merging of the [[Portal:FreeSpace Universe|FreeSpace]] and the ''Battlestar Galactica'' universe since both series have semi-identical histories and plots. In this concept, the GTVA and the CDF (Colonial Defence Fleet) were to become allies and, in the process, form the new faction that would have named the "Coalition". As a lot of modders do, this mod would have incorporate models from other mods, as with the case of the new concept four years later, and would feature one ship FreeSpace players might recognize.

 The campaign would have set shortly after the events of [[Post-Capella|Capella]], though the year had yet to be confirmed, with the player as FreeSpace 2's Alpha 1, fighting for the Coalition against the Cylons, but, unknown to the Coalition, an old enemy is stirring and is itching for revenge.  Also, in addition to the alliance between the GTVA and CDF, they would have developed plans for an even more ambitious idea than the [[GTVA Colossus|GTVA ''Colossus'']]: the first super-juggernaut (currently classed as the ''Goliath'') that combines the GTVA's [[GTVA Colossus|''Colossus''-class juggernaut]] design with that of the CDF's Prometheus-Class battlestar.

+!Width 45%|Carrying a crew compliment of 12,000 officers and enlisted personnel and measuring nearly three kilometres in length, the Raynor is the largest destroyer class in service within the GTVA. It is designed according to the strategic imperatives laid out by the Threat Exigency Initiative, which calls for a destroyer class to hold its own against Shivan ships first enountered during the Second Shivan Incursion with firepower and speed. Its ten heavy beam cannons and long-range torpedo launchers which can focus at least 50% of the ship's main firepower across most of the ship's length, along with the most advanced electronics and armour technology the GTVA has in mind. The Raynor has a smaller hangar bay, so it depends on other destroyers for fighter support and cover.

+!Width 45%|Even before the unfortunate loss of the Colossus to the Shivans in the Capella system, GTVA designers sought to create a destroyer to make up for the shortcomings in the flagship's design concept of 'Bigger and Stronger', which resulted in 'More Expensive and Poorer Deployment Options'.  The GTD Sirona was an attempt to create a modern destroyer class warship capable of standing toe-to-toe with anything in its class the Shivans could throw at it, while unlike the Colossus being able to be constructed in greater numbers.  In addition, while the modern Hecate class destroyers excelled as flagships and as command and control ships for fighter squadrons, the Hecate had failed to live up to expectations in direct warship combat.  Command chose to deploy Orion class destroyers along side the Hecates to offset this weakness, but against the new Shivan threat, the Orion class destroyers were showing their age.  The Sirona picks up where the Orions left off, mounting heavy firepower, both in warship engagements and fighter defence.  The massive arrays of both medium and long range flak cannons make the Sirona a deathtrap for any bomber pilots that should attempt to engage it.  Command expects that the deployment of even one Sirona alongside every Hecate, will improve the latter's survivability by fifty percent.  Futhermore, as with its predecessor the Orion, the Sirona retains the fighterbay common to all destroyers, allowing it to perform solo missions and engagements.
