Mission 3: Dark Whispers

Dark Whispers is the third starfighter combat scenario written for the X-Wing Miniatures Game and published as a rules supplement in the X-Wing Miniatures Game: Core Set.

Plot summary
''Imperial scouts have located a Rebel (sic) holonet satellite network, critical to maintaining secret communications across the entire galaxy. If Imperial ships can get close enough, they can download and decipher the encrypted Rebel transmissions. The Rebel defenders must hold off the Imperial fighters until security safeguards can be implemented to lock down the transmissions, disabling the holonet network but keeping the data safe.''

Mission Objectives
The Rebels must either destroy all Imperial ships or deactivate all the satellites in the combat area. The Imperials are victorious only if all satellites have been scanned and at least one Imperial ship that scanned a satellite has subsequently fled the combat area.
