This week your hosts discuss….
X-Wing: Rogue Squadron: Blood and Honor
Shot down from the bloody skies of Brentaal, Baron Soontir Fel, the greatest fighter ace of the Empire, has been captured by the Rebel Alliance. But from the shadowed recesses of a Rebel interrogation chamber, Fel tells a story of the deception and corruption beneath the Empire’s orderly surface… and sets the stage for his own defection to the Rebellion. In return, the Rogues must return to Fel’s home planet of Corellia to find his wife. When the pilots reach the planet, they find that Syal Antilles Fel has fled. The remaining members of the Fel family approach the pilots to save another of their own. A young baby has been captured by a local crime boss in revenge for past wrongs. The Rogues must join forces with CorSec operatives Corran Horn and Iella Wessiri. After rescuing the young boy, the Fels flee the planet with the Rogues. Horn escorts them out of the system, beating back a force of pirates.
