THE STORY
Valkyrie pilots are among the Imperium’s finest aviators, and Vagabond Squadron of the 901st Tactical Wing stands among the very best. Known for daring maneuvers, relentless aggression, and unwavering resolve, the Vagabonds have built their reputation in the crucible of war. However, their latest deployment against the overwhelming ork invasion of Kanai Tertius will push them far beyond their limits.
A newly assigned rookie pilot, internal divisions within high command, and the growing threat of enemy air superiority combine to place the squadron under extreme pressure. With mission details known only to Squadron Leader Cassandra Elza, the fate of an entire planet-wide campaign rests on their ability to perform under impossible conditions. But in this battle, not every pilot will make it back.
