Background

Alpha Team has a matter to attend to regarding the evacuation from the SD Nyaralathotep: two medical frigates are stranded in space. One has their engines shot and life support failing, but with a perimeter defense, and the other one just has busted engines. As per the rules of civilian welfare, everyone has to get out.

Walkthrough

Alpha team is invincible, pick whatever you want.

Basically, defend the medical ships when friendly transports arrive. When the friends dock and start repair and evacuation, the Nyaralathotep arrives a long distance away.

Rats. What should you do? Kill your engines (set your throttle to zero) so the Shivan fighters don't notice you... then you can wait until they get too close, and get the jump on them.

Kill all the Shivans you see around the medical frigates until everyone evacuates (the Argo that evacuated one and the other medical frigate that had its engines repaired). You will get the order to depart.

Notes

  • Even if killing your engines works, sometimes, your team mates won't follow suit. As long as you, the player, stay still, you won't get your cover blown.
