But the jump never completes.

In the distant future, the solar system is a battleground for two interstellar superpowers: the democratic Earth Federation and the expansionist, militaristic Non-Aligned Empire. Years of cold war have bred a desperate need for intelligence. The Federation’s most promising new weapon is the Nemesis , a highly advanced, heavily armored prison battleship. Its mission: to infiltrate enemy space, capture high-value Imperial officers, and extract critical information through any means necessary. kangoku senkan

Commanding the Nemesis is Captain Naomi Evans, a brilliant and principled officer. Her trusted subordinate, Lieutenant Kurenai, is a tactical expert haunted by the Empire’s destruction of his home colony. Together, they lead a crew of 200 on a covert operation to capture the Empire’s notorious “Black Fox,” Commander Ruri Asuka — a sadistic genius responsible for countless Federation POW deaths. The mission proceeds flawlessly. Using a false distress signal, the Nemesis lures Commander Asuka’s escort cruiser into an asteroid field. A swift, precision boarding action captures Ruri and her top lieutenants, sisters Makoto and Nami—elite interrogators known for breaking prisoners with psychological warfare. With the Empire’s finest in their brig, Captain Evans orders a jump back to Federation space. But the jump never completes
