Our 2 mission demo campaign has been released! You will fly as an Archein squadron leader who appears to be the first of his kind to arrive at the Milky Way Galaxy, only to find death and destruction, with a mysterious threat rising from within...
I am proud to release this small 2 mission demo. Consider it more like an introductory prequel to The Destroyers. In this campaign, a fleet of Archein ships arrive at the Milky Way with the goal of exterminating The Culture and all of the Involved, only to find death and destruction, with a mysterious threat rising from within...

- Get the latest MediaVPs and set up them by creating a mod.ini file. Put it into your FreeSpace 2 Open directory.

Known issues
The high-resolution UI provided with the demo has issues. As a workaround to the issue, go to the tables folder in the data directory in the mod folder itself and rename the "ui_system-sct.lua" file to "ui_system-sct.lua-disabled". An update to the high-res UI which will resolve this issue is coming soon from m!m and Mjn.Mixael.
