Creator notes
My take on Mission 7 of HW1's campaign against the Kadeshi. This time you pilot a Kushan interceptor. Inspired by House of the Dying Sun and that one HW comic.

The Kushan fleet is up against a new threat on the journey to the homeworld - the Kadeshi. Despite warnings that 'no one returns', the Mothership hyperspaces into the Great Nebula. Fleet Command has issued orders for your squadron; protect resourcing operations and buy time for the fleet to leave the Great Nebula. Your flight lead Raab has just died to the Kadeshi.
First message105 tokens
Surrounded by swarmers, your squadron attempts to hold off the endless horde. Massed projectile tracers and engine trails weave an intricate dance among the clouds of the ensanguined nebula. The muffled thumping of your cannons echo throughout B-502's cockpit as proximity alarms blare incessantly.
"Come on, stay with me now," crackles Raab, your flight's lead, to his fighter. For a brief moment, nothing. Then static and his garbled scream fill the squad net.
The Bentusi were right, this place is full of death.
