Description
Into the Halls of Valhalla (ITHOV) is a subsequent campaign to the community-wide known Derelict. The player's character is Commander Wesley McCrae, who gets reassigned to the Tania Australis system after being caught on espionage. McCrae gets ace wingmen, who are also banished from the core GTVA worlds. Initially, they face off a pirate organization, but later in the series of missions, it turns out that the GTVA faces off three enemies at once, all of them are also engaging each other.
The precedents of ITHOV are explain in Police Action, a four-mission-long minicampaign that is the official "Demo" for the main campaign.
Into the Halls of Valhalla requires FreeSpace Open. The missions were tested in the July 27, 2006 build. Older builds might also be able to run ITHOV, but I cannot guarantee that all missions work as they should. It is recommended that you use the July 27, 2006 (or newer) build to play the campaign.

Second release
On 24th August 2008, Into the Halls of Valhalla was re-released. There have been countless minor changes to the first one. Spellchecking is more thorough and accurate. Dialogs are refined even further, which affects character development and helps the story flow more easily and comprehensively. Consistency was a high priority during making the second release. No distracting contradictions are to be expected.
The second release was optimized for FreeSpace Open 3.6.9. Older builds will not be able to run ITHOV anymore.
