This is the primary mission of the Battle of Neptune campaign, a telling of the early stage of the War in Heaven conflict of the Blue Planet series from the GTVA's side of the war. Blue Planet tells the story of the GTVA's return to Earth after constructing the Delta Serpentis portal, modeled on the Knossos devices. We occupy the character of Ensign Callum Rahman of the 312th Bodysnatchers, stationed on the GTD Meridian. The GTA in the Sol system has been overthrown by an extremist rebel faction, and we must reassert GTVA authority to protect humanity against the Shivans. To that end, we are moving quickly to seize the installations in Neptune orbit. The Neptune installation is guarded by a frigate, two small cruisers, and several fighter squadrons. The 312th's task in this operation is to escort a bomber squadron on a strike mission against the cruisers and then fly close escort for the battlegroup for the remainder of the operation.

The briefing is full realistic military, so if that's not your thing feel free to skip to mission start at 18:36 for the opening cutscene.

This is Freespace 2 played using the upgraded graphics courtesy of the Freespace Upgrade Project's MediaVPs, on version 4.6.7 at time of recording. Check out the project at http://hard-light.net
