9th Fleet is a mod by Eolis.


Storyline



Chapter 1: Testing on the GTD Zeus takes place. In the meantime, the GTVA discovers a Knossos. They also uncover an SD Lucifer (called SD Beelzebub). Allied forces have managed to capture the Beelzebub. They also discovered the TSF and the TSD Apocalypse.

Chapter 2, GTVA branch : Destruction of the TSF fleet (Battle of Endor Syndrome ) Destruction of the TSD Archangel Capture of the TSD Apocalypse and exploration of what lies beyond the Knossos gate. Discovery of two new Knossos gates Battle of the Knossosses Exploration of the Knossoses, loss of the GTD Zeus

Chapter 2, TSF branch: Attack of the GTI S.R.I. War against GTVA Destruction of the GTD Loraine Destruction of the GTD Zeus GTVA reprisals Exodus toward Knossos Shivan reprisals

This campaign takes place shortly after the destruction of Capella, a testing fleet made for the new GTD Zeus( a GTD Hades class ) will fight with the Shivans led by the Lucifer-class destroyer, the SD Beelzebub. The Terrans then replicate the Lucifer's shielding technology and apply it to the Hecates and the GTD Zeus, but a big surprise is awaiting the GTVA: Bosch has allied with the Shivans!
