This is the second mission of the fourth part of the Lightning Marshal campaign anthology for Freespace 2, Where Eagles Dare. The mole on the GTVA Security Council has struck again. The GTD Los Angeles has fallen under attack by a large NTF task force. The Los Angeles was on a top secret mission and her course was known only to the Security Council and those on board the destroyer, so our mole must be involved. The Space Cowboys, posing as pirates, are to take advantage of the chaos and disable an NTF ship, which Special Operations commandos will then board and capture. To avoid blowing our cover, we are not to take steps to protect the Los Angeles. Of course, orders can always be bent a little...

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 at time of recording. Check out the project at http://hard-light.net
