	The campaign followed an alternate storyline of [[Inferno]] where the completion of the [[GTI Melia\|Melia Sol Gate]] led to an alliance between the [[EA]] and the [[GTVA]]. The ''Steadfast'', a [[EACa Telemus\|Telemus]]-class carrier, was built in the outer orbit of [[Earth]] to celebrate this alliance and several elite squadrons from either factions were based onboard this carrier. Ever since its introduction into active service, the ''Steadfast'' prevented potential rebellions all over GTVA-EA space without firing a single shot: its presence on any environment was well enough to discourage any threats to the renewed alliance.

	One of the elite squadrons based on the ''Stedfast'' was the 35th Black Eagles, formed on the [[GTD Aquitaine\|Aquitaine]] when the [[70th Blue Lions]] got disbanded. Led by a charismatic squadron leader, the player would have started the campaign as ''Beta 1'', following the orders of the squadron leader, ''Alpha 1''. Contrary to popular belief, the elite squadron, a true pride for the GTVA, was formed by seasoned pilots as well as much younger pilots who passed through programs of intense training.

	The campaign was meant to feature take off and landing cutscenes plus normal cutscenes set during the missions. In addition to all these features, there would have been squadrons of powerful enemy aces to defeat. Each pilot of the enemy ace squadrons was at first meant to have his/her own personal description, but as progress carried on, only the most important information on the squadrons themselves and their respective leaders became Intelligence entries, unlocked during the campaign. The squadrons will be tough enemies to defeat since they have their own, effective strategies and are boosted thanks to advanced SEXPs and FRED settings such as special hitpoints.

	Following the construction of the GTI Melia, the GTVA contacted the Earth Alliance, a powerful entity that rules in Sol. Many treaties were signed between the two Alliances, which then started to develop new technologies and share military forces. The pride of the Alliance is the GTCa Steadfast, a massive supercarrier built in the outer orbit of Earth and armed with state of the art weapons. The best squadrons of both Alliances are based on the Steadfast, making it a fearsome presence in any kind of environment. Many small rebellions have been stopped by the Steadfast, which forced all potential hostiles to surrender without problems and without firing a single shot.
