Historical Background
Reports have been received that the space platform in Sector 7? has been destroyed. To make matters worse one of our dreadnoughts near the platform, under repair and with the ship's crew on leave, has been captured. Survivors from the incident report that Commonwealth spies along with an elite force of commandos boarded the ship and quickly overpowered the security team. Shortly after this, a Commonwealth fleet arrived in the sector and demanded the platform surrender. When they refused, the platform was destroyed and only a few crew managed to escape. The Commonwealth fleet remains in the sector. Your orders are to prevent the Commonwealth fleet from leaving the sector and to recover any survivors.
The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. The rest is history?
