This is the first mission of the Blackwater Operations campaign demo for Freespace 2. The year is 2376, and we inhabit the role of Lieutenant Commander Aidan Mallory, assigned to the 95th White Lightning squadron, GTD Bethesda. It has been nine years since the severing and destruction of the Capella system. Our wing has been selected for the Terran-Vasudan Officer Exchange Program, and we are currently seconded to the GVD Memphis. Ordinarily we'd have gotten a full welcome, tour of the destroyer, etc, but a nearby convoy has just sent a distress signal, and since we're still suited up from flying in, we're scrambling. Convoys have disappeared without a trace several times here in Alpha Centauri, and Command is eager to get to the bottom of it.

This is Freespace 2 played using the upgraded graphics courtesy of the Freespace Upgrade Project's MediaVPs, on version 4.6.8 at time of recording. Check out the project at http://hard-light.net
