ACT 3 - MISSION 33
Fighter squadron: 74th Templars
Description: Assault a supply base of Falon's rebels to extract a spy.
Location: Banyule Installation, Sol
Background
Admiral Falon has revolted against the EA Provisional Government, taking the Nemesis with him and much of the fleet. The Templars have been temporarily reassigned to the EAD Basileus to help out. Their first mission is to cause a distraction so a spy can be extracted from the EACv Soyuz. The Soyuz is based at Banyule Installation, a fleet base orbiting Saturn.
Walkthrough
The battle plan is relatively complicated. Alpha, Beta and Crux wings will make a diversionary attack while the spy, Captain Singh, uses a transport loaded with explosives to disable the installation's fire control. After the bomb explodes, the EAD Basileus will warp in with a recovery transport to exfiltrate Singh from the Soyuz.
This mission is a mix of dogfighting, intercept and subsystem strikes. You'll be flying Alfa Wing, which default to the GTF Perseus Adv. Bravo defaults to the GTF Banshee. Crux is flying EAF Siope stealth fighters. Make sure to carry a bank of Stilettos.
Take out the fighter wings first. Once they are cleaned out, Draco wing of Gagana bombers will join in. Singh prepares the explosives and they explode, knocking out the installation's main beams. The EAD Basileus arrives on station, along with the EAT Corvus transport Azure. Send a wing to defend the Soyuz as the Azure evacuates them, and intercept the bombers.
The EAD Tereus-class destroyer Rizal will arrive broadside of the Basileus. Assist the Basileus by disarming the Rizal's broadside beams. The Basileus will then sanitize the area, the Azure will warp out, and they will self-destruct the Soyuz.
Earther reinforcements then arrive, two EAD Lindos-class destroyers. The Basileus warps out. Return to base.
Notes
- This mission is a modified version of The Only Possible Outcome from Inferno Classic.
- The mission's name alludes to the proverb, "Politics makes for strange bedfellows."
