Upon entering the system, the player must defeat several warbird squadrons (including {{Mob|T'varo Light Warbird}}s, {{Mob|Mogai Heavy Warbird}}s, and {{Mob|Scorpion Fighter}}s) and a number of turret emplacements. Once the defenses are down, the away team beams to a Romulan military base on the surface. On Rator III, the player disables a transport inhibitor and rescues the survivors of the task force, who were captured by the Romulans. Their leader, Lieutenant [[Tess]], reveals that the fleet is preparing to invade Federation space (with [[Vulcan (planet)|Vulcan]] likely their main target) and that they plan to collect a number of subspace weapons from Rator before the strike. After Tess and her team are beamed to safety, the player's team locates the weapons and destroys them before returning to their ship. In orbit, the player's vessel joins the {{USS|San Jose}}'s assault fleet and participates on an attack on the Romulan fleet. Eventually the enemy flagship, {{IRW|Decius}}, is destroyed and the threat to the Federation averted for now. == Outline == === Mission Text === {{missiontext| We're at the turning point, '''<rank>'''. [[Starfleet]] sent a task force to father intelligence in the [[Rator System|Rator system]]. We now have reason to believe that Rator is the gathering point for a fleet that will cross the [[Neutral Zone]] and attack Federation space. The task force has failed to report in, and there is a strong possibility that they have been taken prisoner by the [[Romulan]]s. Starfleet Command has decided that it is time for decisive action. We are sending a fleet to Rator with two goals – rescue our officers, and stop the Romulan fleet before it can cross the Neutral Zone. The '''<ship name>''' will be joining that fleet. I don't need to tell you how important this is, '''<character name>'''. If this goes poorly, the Federation will be embroiled in a second war. The potential for loss of life is unimaginable. }} === Goal === {{missiongoal|Join a fleet going to the Rator System, located in the Hyralan Sector of the Psi Velorum Sector Block, to confront a Romulan invasion force.}} === Objectives === * First Strike ** Go To [[Rator System|Rator Prime]] ** Defeat Romulan Squadrons (0/5) ** Defeat Romulan Turret Emplacements (0/5) ** Beam down to Rator III * Behind Enemy Lines ** Go To Rator III ** Disable Transporter Inhibitor ** Check Ops Report ** Rescue Starfleet Prisoners (0/7) ** Check Ops Report ** Plant Charges on Weapon Caches (0/3) ** Beam up to your ship * The Empress Advances ** Go To Rator Prime ** Eliminate all Romulan Ships ** Return to Sector Space * Report to Starfleet == NPCs == <div class="leftcolumn"> === Allies === ====[[United Federation of Planets|Federation]]==== * Starfleet Captive * [[Tess|Lieutenant Tess]] </div> <div class="rightcolumn"> === Enemies === ====[[Romulan Star Empire|Romulan]]==== * [[Uhlan]] * [[Sublieutenant Medic]] * [[Centurion]] * [[Centurion Engineer]] * [[Centurion Medic]] * [[Centurion Scientist]] * [[Subcommander]] * [[Subcommander Engineer]] </div> ==NPC starships== <div class="leftcolumn"> === Allies === ====[[United Federation of Planets|Federation]]==== *{{pips|1}} [[Federation Frigate]] *{{pips|2}} {{Mob|Federation Cruiser}} *{{pips|2}} {{Mob|Federation Escort}} *{{pips|2}} {{Mob|Federation Science Vessel}} *{{pips|2}} [[Galaxy Class Cruiser]] *{{pips|2}} [[Intrepid Class Science Vessel]] *{{pips|2}} [[Rhode Island Science Vessel]] *{{pips|2}} [[Nebula Class Science Vessel]] *{{pips|3}} [[Typhoon Class Battleship]] *{{pips|4}} {{USS|San Jose}} </div> <div class="rightcolumn"> === Enemies === ====[[Romulan Star Empire|Romulan]]==== *{{pips|0}} {{Mob|Scorpion Fighter}} *{{pips|1}} {{Mob|T'varo Light Warbird}} *{{pips|2}} {{Mob|Mogai Heavy Warbird}} *{{pips|3}} [[D'deridex Battlecruiser]] *{{pips|4}} {{IRW|Decius}} </div> {{clear}} ==Accolades== There are a number of accolades available from this mission; {| border="2" class="wikitable" width="100%" |- !
