MISSION 10

Fighter squadron: 222nd Nightwolves

Description: Alpha Wing escorts Admiral Nechyev to the GTD Temeraire.


Background

The Sanctuary has been running, hiding, and fighting for its life for half a century. Your arrival represents the first spark of hope in generations for the survivors of this alternate universe.

The meeting between Rear-Admiral Carey and Admiral Nechyev on board the GTD Temeraire will be the first inter-universe conference between two flag officers, and you have been selected to escort Nechyev's shuttle as it crosses the short distance between the Sanctuary and the Temeraire in an inaugural ceremony.

Walkthrough

This mission is essentially a playable cutscene.

Notes

  • In the original release of AoA, the Shivan warship that was destroyed during the opening cutscene was a Moloch corvette. During the development process preceding the re-release, this was temporarily changed to a Cain-class cruiser. A version with this change was released with the 3.6.10 release of Age of Aquarius. It has since been switched back to a Moloch for the Director's Cut.
