Plotline:

You are Lt. Kate "Valkyrie" Flyer of Typhoon Squadron, a former mercenary pilot who recently joined the Emperor's Hammer.
As Kate, you will battle with your comrades in Typhoon against wiley rebels, traitors, and even a best friend from your
previous life.  To your ship, pilot!

____________
Hints:

# 1. Destroy the CORT Stardust when it arrives, or it will quickly dock with and capture the Tantalus.  Don't ignore
A-W Blue either, because it will make a beeline for the Tantalus.  Disable it as quickly as possible, and the battle
should be won.  

# 2. The Y-wings are the primary threat - Focus your fire on them, or they will take out the Challenge.  Ignore the 
Rebellious' attack on DS12 - If you try to save the doomed platform, the Challenge will be lost, and it is your primary 
mission objective!

# 3. Wade through the host of enemy starfighters, and hold on to your torpedoes.  It may not seem overly difficult until
the end, but remember that you have only one wave!  Use your torpedoes on the M/SC when the fighters are taken care of,
then make a beeline for the hyperspace beacon and inspect it.  Watch out for the fighters that appear between the M/SC
and the hyperpoint: They will target you, and are out for blood.  Max speed to engines!

# 4. Your best bet is to hit Container Shield IV first, or you will have to deal with evading a M/CRV later.  Get far
enough way from the Ad Astra to use your torpedoes, then finish off the comm sat with your lasers.  Use your torpedoes
while evading the enemies as best you can.  Be careful that you don't shoot down Kiru!  You will fail if you do!  Instead,
she will withdraw when her hull is down to 50 percent.  When the Formidable arrives, target the enemy Y-wings, since the 
bombers should be able to help themselves.  If you don't, the Y-wings stand a decent chance of destroying the Formidable.
Don't let that happen!

# 5. Target and destroy the containers and a transport as quickly as you can, or they will depart relatively soon, losing
the mission.  Then do your best to evade enemy fire while taking out the GPLT and mines.  When those are finally gone, the
Rebellious and the Challenge will arrive, and you will join in the destruction of the Rebel fleet.  Focus in on the B-wings
that are moving in on the INT, and you should be fine.  When Kiru launches, ignore her at your own peril - She is packing
advanced missiles, and is heading straight for you!  Defeat her to win the mission, and help bring closure to Kate's past.

LAST WORDS FROM THE AUTHOR:

This is my first battle, but I am rather proud of it.  It is meant to be more plot driven, so there will be quite a 
number of messages.  Be sure to read the description before each mission!  In general, I think most pilots will find
this battle moderately challenging, though I didn't intend it to be overly so.  Enjoy the missions, post a review or two,
and have fun!
