Walkthrough

The Reshadiye will experience an internal explosion within a few seconds of the beginning. After some dialog Pisces and Sagittarius of Scimitars will jump in. Ignore Pisces, go straight for Sagittarius - they're armed with Warhammer bombs. If any fighters from Pisces try to follow you, the speed of the Kentauroi will give you time to destroy Sagittarius entirely before destroying your perusers. Splash Sagittarius, destroy bombs, and mop up Pisces.


There's a minute or so of dialog a red blip appears in your radar. Put power to engines and burn over to it. It turns out to be the Spectre, a Charybdis AWACs ship. It will jump out immediately after appearing, there's no chance of destroying it.


Double it back to the Reshadiye. There is a large section of dialog, and then the Upanishad transport Erin will jump in, along with Templar wing, and the Reshadiye will deploy a GTEP Hermes "Shuttle" that you are supposed to escort. There is more dialog. Escorting the shuttle turns out to be impossible as Aquila and Cepheus of Maxim equipped Pegasi appear out of nowhere and destroy the shuttle within seconds. If you're familiar with fighting un-targetable foes, you are likely going to be able to take out a few of the Pegasi.
