This is the sixth mission of the Silent Threat expansion for Descent: Freespace. This mission is a real bear; the objective is to seize a disabled science vessel out from under the guns of a Vasudan Hammer of Light destroyer by towing it away with an Elysium transport as the destroyer spams out endless fighters. Fortunately as a backup you can destroy the station after the transports inevitably die to the massed firepower arrayed against you.

As you can see from my concurrent playthrough of Silent Threat Reborn, this original expansion didn't give the Freespace Port developers didn't a whole lot to work with for their remake. I am doing the remake side by side with the original campaign since they depict the same events (in different ways).
