For the first time since the first war, all four banners of the Skywatch Fleet have been activated. Captain Hunter believes the Core Alliance may field a total of a thousand starships to fight back against the aggression of the Sarn Coalition, including lance dreadnoughts, space control bases and the new commando frigate.
With the help of the new Aeter faction, Hunter also believes there may be a way to reinforce Alliance formations with an additional one thousand warships.
But first, the showdown of the war may have already taken place in the Siege Island Three deflection zone. Multiple starships are down, including what may be the wreck of the battleship Argent. DSS Minstrel is first on the scene. What Lieutenant Commander Rebecca Islington discovers could change the course of the war, and things may not be in the Alliance's favor.
