Welcome to Hell.  I apologize that the advance briefings I gave you during your cryosleep en route to OREC Prime may have glossed over the details of the damage done by the alien hordes.  Orec Prime is quickly succumbing to the invading aliens and thus the Company has loaned you to Orec's military command to serve as a special support unit.  The Company would like Orec to survive unscathed so that their production is minimally impacted.

One last thing that I forgot to mention. I had a chance to contact AINIC III just prior to his demise.  He told me a few things about our enemy ... K'Narshtek?

Orec's forces have been fighting valiantly but they've almost lost the war.  The Company thought you might be able to turn the tide to the Human force's favor.

You're launching directly into the thick of battle, the Orec Protectors' main Headquarters is under attack and must be defended.

You're dropping right into the main compound along with another Planet-Runner pilot, CRASH.  You two will be working together here so make the best of it.

There are two Statonex Autocannons remaining in the Headquarters' defense grid which should be able to provide you some back-up firepower.  

In addition the Protectors have managed to secure two Voltar Sar-1 shuttles to assist you in the battle.  This is all the support they can spare at this time.

Make sure that at least the headquarters survive; all other buildings at the base site are non-essential for the Protectors' survival.
