2 days ago, we intercepted a distress signal from the Resolute. She is without power, drifting on the edge of the lines. Your team is being dispatched to retake the Resolute or, if unable to retake her, scuttle her so she can't cause anymore damage.

Thousands of lives may hang in the balance, not to mention the fate of the war.

Good luck, and May the Force Be With You!
