Mission Description
Plot
The four Retribution Fleet's starships, ISD Liberator, M/FRG Angelfire, FRG Striker and FRG Gunship are on the verge of being destroyed by continuous imperial attacks and are desperately in need of recovering. Fotunately, they are able to contact an anti-imperial faction that agrees on lending the Escort Carrier Fish to transport supplies and new fighter squadrons to the fleet.
The Empire, always following Retribution's Fleet trail, tries to stop the operation sending their hyperspace capable fighters, Tie-Advanced and Assault Gunboats. The new squadrons, not yet ready and piloted by rookies, are not able to join the fight, so a group of veteran Tie-Advanced are launched from the ISD Liberator to protect them. Squadrons Hydra and Wraith join also the defense forces.
Due to the battle-hardened skill of the Tie-Advanced pilots of Retribution Fleet and the veteran squadrons Hydra and Wraith , the assault group is completely destroyed, though at the end of the operation, while engineers work as fast as they can to repair the capital ships, VSD Alastor makes its appearance. It's going to be a long day for pilots and crew members...
