Historical Background
The battle lines in Sector 72 have remained intact for some time now with neither side gaining any perceived advantage. A Vice Admiral is on his way with orders to break the stalemate in the sector and break through enemy lines. Of course, our spies report that the enemy is aware of the move and has directed a second flagship to the sector as well.
The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. The rest is history?

Special Rules
• Task force cards are used in this scenario. Both faction players select one card. The player that rolls the most stars with 5 dice selects first.
• Support vessels are purchased in this scenario. Both faction players must, however, purchase and deploy 1 Vice Admiral flagship unit for a cost of 31 support points.
• Because each faction has two command vessels, the number of cards and stars tokens taken at the start of a scenario is increased. Take 1 additional command card, 1 additional combat card and 1 additional star token in addition to the number listed in the Battle Notes for the faction.
• Breakthrough objective rules are in effect for both factions.
