This is the main mission select screen. Here, you can move around and select star systems in which to undertake missions. Star Systems that have missions will emit red circles at regular intervals.

Tugs are craft that are used to tow stranded or disabled vessels. A tow cable can be attached to the target craft by flying near to it. Note that only one craft can be towed at any one time, and that the tow cable cannot be manually detached. Tugs are very weak craft, having no shields, and only a rapid fire particle cannon for protection. The tug may be either player or AI controlled.

<h4>Capital Ships</h4>
<p>
Captial ships are large, heavily armed craft that are sometimes encountered during missions. They are slower moving than fighters and more other vessels, but are far harder to take down. Capital ships are made up of several different parks: components, guns, and engines. A capital ship can only be destroyed when all of its components are destroyed. Destroying the engines will cause the ship to stop (which at times may help, if it is moving towards a target you are attempting to protect), while targeting the guns will stop it from firing. However, attempting to take on a capital ship single-handed is usually a very bad idea, as, unless you are piloting an ATAF, you will find yourself heavily out-gunned.

<h4>Defeat by the Pandorans</h4>
<p>
During the course of the campaign, you may encounter a message on the galactic map saying that a star system has fallen to the Pandorans. This is all part of the story flow, and there was nothing that the player could have done to prevent this outcome.
