This is the fifth and sixth, and final, missions of the fifth part of the Lightning Marshal campaign anthology for Freespace 2, ETAK. With the jump node secure, it is time for the final attack on Centauri Beta, the primary habitable planet of Alpha Centauri. The GVD Psamtik and GTCv Actium will lead the attack on the planetary defenses. Our squadron must cover the capital ships and clear the sentry gun net, followed by escorting the troop transports of Omega wing as they make their way to land.

Unlike most other content in this series, this is a blind first play. I never played this campaign when I first picked up Freespace years ago.

This is Freespace 2 played using the upgraded graphics courtesy of the Freespace Upgrade Project's MediaVPs, on version 4.5.1 at time of recording. Check out the project at http://hard-light.net
