Freespace: Between the Ashes - Bringing Down the Gavel
3This is the tenth mission of the Between the Ashes campaign anthology's first campaign, Slaves of Chaos. BtA is a series of three campaigns for Freespace 2, all set between the events of Silent Threat: Reborn and the start of the Freespace 2 campaign.
In this mission, we are doing more wet work. The GTI developed technology to remotely pilot GTA fighters with the proper firmware installed. Taking advantage of this, we are going to seize control of Arris Gavel's fighter and use it to destroy the smuggler convoy he's escorting. This will turn his employers against him and make him dependent on the GTA's protection to avoid the inevitable bounty. After the deed is done, we must convince him to take the deal.
Unlike previous Freespace content on the channel, this is going to be a blind first play! Between the Ashes was released during my decade off from this game, so all of this will be brand new to me as I play it. A sequel, Between the Ashes 2, is in development, but won't release until 2022.
