This is the seventh mission of Warmachine, a weapon testbed reskin of Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius. Warmachine is a complete overhaul of Freespace's ships and weapons, with everything turned up to 11. We occupy the character of Commander Samuel Bei of the 222nd Nightwolves, now temporarily stationed on the GTD Temeraire attached to the 56th Squadron. We don't know where we are, but it's clearly in the vicinity of the Eagle Nebula by looking out the cockpit glass. Several recon flights have been dispatched to scout out the system. For now, the Shivans do not appear to be following us, but one recon wing, dispatched to investigate a signal from deeper in the system, has gone missing. We're being sent after them in a stealth bomber, with authorization to initiate first contact if necessary.

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
