Prompt:
A reconnaissance patrol has located a Ton-Falk class Escort Carrier in deep space near the Caelus system.

With Archanis in need of a command ship, Andrelious and Aldaric have ordered that the ship be captured. Their tactic calls for a single operative to lead the way and help secure the hangar bay, before a small assault team performs a full capture operation. Opposition level is unknown.

Path Assignments
Maverick path: You take the role of the single operative. Andrelious will fly you in aboard his Escort Shuttle. Your job is to secure the hangar area and allow Andrelious to operate from his ship.

Command path: The hangar is clear and Andrelious is commanding the operation from his ship. Take a team of a dozen troopers and secure the Escort Carrier’s bridge.

Resources Available

For those on the Command Path, your team consists of twelve troopers from Archanis' Line Company.

Both paths also have the ability to call on Andrelious himself should the need arise.

Further Information
Intelligence reports do not indicate what kind of opposition we are expecting. It's quite possible that those who hope to just secure the hangar (Maverick path) may find themselves having to take a much larger role in the capture.

Andrelious will, in theory, remain on his Escort Shuttle, but the Quaestor is not known for sitting back and staying out of the action!
