Mission to Saturn

The mission to Saturn was a rouse created by Marc Ibarra to gather a collective of ships and personnel, in order to sidestep the Xaros invasion of Earth.

The Xaros invasion force arrived earlier than anticipated, and Ibarra and Jimmy were forced to engage the Slip-coil Engines ahead of schedule. During the charging time of the Slip-coil engines, the Chinese Hegemony launched an attack on the combined civilian and Atlantic Union Navy fleet using a disguised merchant vessel known as a Q Ship. Atlantic Union Fighters were able to repel the attack and destroy the Q Ship before the slip-coil engines engaged.
