This is the eleventh mission of the Silent Threat expansion for Descent: Freespace. The Shivans have been passing through the Beta Aquilae jump node (from where it doesn't say) in great numbers, despite Beta Aquilae being the heart of GTA space. Our mission is to interdict their convoys. We have been given vastly inadequate forces for the task.


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).
