I've run this one at least twice, the first for my earliest days campaign, and then in the early days of our Guardians one (which is now nearly two decades ago). In the latter one (with the summary below), I used it to introduce a new PC (Shadow Knight), by having the character come from a small town in Colorado where the Capellans (our group nicknamed them the 'A Capellans') set down and took over.
#16 - The Invasion - C.H.E.S.S. dispatches Flaming Star to Midville, Colorado to verify U.F.O. reports. Invasion craft of the Capellan Hegemony land that night and she battles them alongside new superhero Shadow Knight until she is captured. The Guardians Dr. Desist, Entropy, Banshee, and Quiasar come to her rescue and meet billionaire David Lens, a.k.a. Shadow Knight, and other resistance fighters. Together they defeat Star Boss and two patrols of soldiers and capture an enemy scout ship.
#17 - From the Deeps of Space - Quiasar and Entropy take the captured ship to C.H.E.S.S. headquarters in Denver and return in a tank. The team ambushes a force screen post, demolishes two more squads of Capellans, and returns with prisoners to C.H.E.S.S. During strategy sessions, Entropy leads Quiasar and Banshee on a recovery mission to an underwater facility near Nova Scotia, where they are amazingly reunited with Crocodile, Zap, and Spectre!
#18 - Victory! - The final assault is made on the invaders as the adventurers, now joined by Zap and Crocodile, fight their way onto a Base-ship and overcome the head Capellan, Major Rall, as well as Lady Seven and many soldiers. Routed, with the construction of their force-field station stopped, the alien fleet withdraws and leaves Earth's system.
