This is the fourteenth mission of the Procyon Insurgency campaign for Freespace 2. A PCA raid hit a GTVA resupply convoy and captured several containers. Most are of little consequence, but two of them contain a shipment of the new MX-75 Thunder missiles. The containers have been traced to a PCA cargo depot. We cannot allow our latest technological advancements to fall into enemy hands, so Alpha Wing of the 74th is tasked with scanning the depot to locate the missiles and then destroying the containers.

Unlike most other videos in the series, this is a blind first play. I gave up on Procyon Insurgency a few missions in when I first played it years ago because of its difficulty, and even now it's hard.

This is Freespace 2 played using the upgraded graphics courtesy of the Freespace Upgrade Project's MediaVPs, on version 4.6.4 at time of recording. Check out the project at http://hard-light.net
