FABULOUS FOUNDRY FINDS (CON’T)
FLEE OR FIGHT
Safely back aboard your own ship once again, you survey
what is left of the 7th Fleet. History is repeating itself, there
are only 14 ships left of the Task Force, the exact same
14 that survived the last time this battle took place. With
another wave of Dominion ships on their way, the order is
given to retreat. Your Officers quickly tell you they disagree,
Duvar is on his way to DS9 and, if he gets there, he will be
able to warn Gul Dukat about your presence in the timeline.
Flee or fight, it’s your call Captain.
AMBUSHED
Before the fleet can retreat back to Federation controlled
space, the Dominion forces descend upon you. 7 of the Task
Force made it through and are on their way to safety, the 7
others and you remain. Outnumbered and outgunned, the
fleet is in disarray, and you know it’s only a matter of time
before they crumble. Knowing that decisive action is needed,
you and your first officer thrash out a plan. It’s all or nothing
now, if Duvar escapes your timeline will be changed forever.
Setting a course, you head for DS9 hoping that the attacking
forces will follow you and disengage the fleet.
THE ROAD AHEAD
You race after Duvar in a desperate attempt to stop him reaching DS9. Detecting you on sensors, his escorts
drop out of warp and prepare to engage you. Your all on your own here, no 7th Fleet to help you. Dispatch
them as quickly as you can and get to DS9 before Duvar can, or all will be lost. As soon as your done, lay in a
course for DS9 and engage at maximum warp.
THE FINAL CONFRONTATION
You finally arrive at DS9, but not quickly enough, as Duvar is
already there. Luckily for you, Dukat and his forces are busy
trying to dismantle the minefield left behind by Benjamin
Sisko and aren’t paying any attention to Duvar and his ship
yet. Upon hailing him, he proclaims his victory over you and
the annihilation of the Federation. You give him the chance
to surrender and beam aboard your ship, naturally he de-
clines and powers his weapons. Do what you must Captain,
the future of the Federation is in your hands.
