Mission G1: Rebel Saboteurs

X-Wing Miniatures Mission G1: Rebel Saboteurs is the first of three missions of the campaign Imperial Crackdown, and its from the Imperial Assault Carrier Expansion Pack.

Plot Summary
''Across the galaxy, the Empire tightens its grip. Only the exceptionally brave (or exceptionally reckless) dare to offer any resistance in the face of such overwhelming military might. Nevertheless Imperial forces are stretched thin. Pirates, spies and saboteurs harry supply lines, and agents of the Rebel Alliance continue to wage their lopsided war, striking fast and hard wherever the Empire is Weakest.''

A precarious situation indeed, thinks the captain of a Gozanti-class cruiser'' as he sits brooding on his bridge. Two months of patrols have yielded little more than fleeting glimpses of enemy. Enough. He stands.''

"Prepare to jump to hyperspace on my mark. Let's do a fly-by of this sector's communications array."

"Sir, those coordinates are not on our designated patrol route."

"I'm countermanding those orders. How long have we been out here with nothing to show for it? someone has been alerting the saboteurs of our movement, but they'll not slip my net this time."

Emerging from hyperspace, the cruiser is greeted by a strange sight-a Corellian freighter is sabotaging the array!

"Prepare an intercept course and deploy the fighters. And ensign-happy hunting."
