ACT 2, MISSION 1

Fighter squadron: N/A

Description: Locate the Demon.


Background

The Demon has hidden itself in the Verbek System. However, long range scans have been unreliable in finding it due to interference from the sole planet in the system and surrounding asteroid fields.

Malia sensor cruisers have been deployed into the system to sort the interference out. Aleph and Beth Wings will cover one such cruiser, the Pseira through one of the asteroid fields.

Walkthrough

The Nova Cannon is a boon against shields here, paired with the Quasar, you'll have long range cannon response. Be wary about the high power draw between both weapons.

Escort the Pseira through the asteroid field. The first few minutes is straight asteroid cleaning and exposition.

The second half of this mission also adds some Shivans. Expect Scorpions, Basilisks, and Nephilims.

Notes

  • Music used upon the return-to-base cue is taken from Half-Life 2 (upon completing that game's sixth chapter, "We Don't Go To Ravenholm").
