Crucible is a seven-mission campaign for Descent: FreeSpace.

Missions: 7

Description

This campaign centers around the actions of the GTD Intrepid after the defeat of the Lucifer at Sol. The Intrepid is assigned a mission to penetrate enemy lines in order to buy time for the Terran-Vasudan alliance to regroup.

New ships:none

Comments

The campaign is unique in that it is one of the extremely few non-SCP campaigns to use multiple ship docking. This was achieved through editing the mission in a text editor.

Availability

The campaign was available from the Volitionwatch Archives and can still be downloaded from an archived link.

This campaign, uniquely, is almost fully branching -- after the first mission, there is no need to hit the replay button regardless of what happens in a given mission. Originally created by Matthew Guenther in 1998, it has been converted and brought up to the latest graphics standards by the FSPort team on September 03, 2007.
