The crew of the former assault shuttle Warlock are on a new randomly generated mission to sabotage an Imperial data transfer satellite, located far out in the Vega III System. The patron is a mercenary group, and the pay is rated excellent.As Warlock Docks with the satellite an Imperial Corvette appears. Is this a trap? Have the mercenaries sold them out? Are they mercenaries or just pirates?
|
Deployment. The data satellite is central. |
|
Warlock refuses the hail. I keep the satellite between us. That Corvette is faster and more heavily armed. |
|
Warlock Docks, and the crew hide in the smuggler compartments and set the auto destruct routine to run a false countdown. |
|
The Imperials move in to put a boarding party across, only to find an abandoned ship, apparently counting down an auto destruct. |
|
Sensors tell my crew that the Imperials have most of ther crew aboard. The Warlock crew break out of the crawl spaces and a gunfight breaks out. Engineering is soon recaptured. |
|
Combat under fivecore can be brutal. The upper deck is swept, and the Imperial Captain trapped ou Warlock's bridge. |
|
The Imperial Captain is killed, with all of the boarding party. Warlocks crew got lucky. |
|
The Mercenary group finally appear in a destroyer. This is heavy opposition, and the Corvettes acting Captain turns to engage, giving Warlock the chance to run for it. |
The game ends as Warlock escapes, leaving the Corvette and destroyer to fight.
