Shadows of the Great War - The Spirit of Ptah Mission 4
Player squadron: 223rd Moonbears (transition to 26th Yellow Lancers)
Description: The Hikuptah has left Vasuda for Alpha Centauri, which is disputed. A former pilot from the GTD Ixion is deployed on a scout fighter, with two PVI special agents on board, to stage a defection and gain vital information...
Created: November 27th, 2007
Released: October 16th, 2020
Background
The HLD Hikuptah, the Hammer of Light flagship that appeared from nowhere and eliminated the GTD Ixion using powerful reverse-engineered beam weapons of Shivan origin, has eluded detection since that engagement and must be countered. The Alliance realizes that a pure engagement with the vessel, which is suspected to have set a course to Alpha Centauri, would result in bloodshed, and relies on a side plan to gather vital data on the destroyer's specs and react according to said data. Despite the obvious advantage in term of firepower, the Hikuptah also plays a delicate political role, and may induce further defections within the PVE. Supreme Admiral Khu decides that experienced and skilled Terran pilots, all but impervious to HoL influence, may perform a task that would otherwise put any Vasudan pilot, no matter how loyal to the PVE, in an ambiguous situation.
