Historical Background
We have broken through, and after receiving replacements, which brought us back to almost full strength, we are moving into Commonwealth home world space. We’ve been reinforced by a powerful dreadnought direct from the Othorians. We received word from the dreadnought’s captain that this is the last such vessel produced by the Othorians and that production has now completely shifted to carriers and carrier fighters. It must have cost the Confederation High Council a pretty penny, but that is of little concern out here; we are just happy to have this beast on our side. As we approach the outlying planets of the Commonwealth home world, it would seem they have called forward every ship possible.
The battle lines are drawn and you are in command. The rest is history?
