Sky Gamblers Wiki
Advertisement

The campaign story of SGAS revolves around an organization of veteran pilots known as the Sky Gamblers, who fight to protect the world's citizens. The Sky Gamblers are fighting a shady alliance of military contractors and researchers known as "Panoply", which is revealed to be the front for an alien invasion. There are two campaigns: Fighting For Freedom and Against All Odds.

Your Character: Commonly referred to as "Captain" by his wingmen and superiors, the protagonist of the story was originally a fighter pilot who flew an RFU47 along with his squadron. Nearing the end of his last "official" mission with his country's air force, he is forced to shoot down his wingmen, who attempt to intercept an allied convoy. Shortly after shooting down his wingmen, he is forced to eject, as a Sky Gamblers SAM truck shoots his aircraft down. After landing, the driver of the jeep explains everything that had been going on recently, and brings him to a nearby airbase, where he can fly to the nearest SG base.

Campaign 1[]

1: New World Disorder[]

Aircraft: RFU47

Taking off for a sortie to destroy an RFSR71 with important info locked inside, Captain's squadron intercept two convoys with air support, before coming across the enemy airbase with their target. Captain's wingmen disobey orders from base though, and one of them crashes into a nearby building, with the other narrowly avoiding the explosion. Fortunately, the guys at base were able to send in two more pilots to assist with destroying the airbase, so they quickly destroy it. On the return flight, Captain notices a large amount of smoke coming from base, and spots an allied convoy trying to seek refuge. The convoy's leader requests air support for the convoy. However, the Captain's new wingmen attack the convoy. After a brief dogfight, Captain managed to down both his wingmen, and the convoy leader informs him of a nearby airbase where he could refuel at. On his way there though, he realizes someone had fired a SAM at him, and he ejects in the nick of time. On his way down, a jeep appears and the driver gets out, ordering him to get in. After explaining that the base SAMs went haywire, he informs Captain that "something bad" has happened.

2: New Hope[]

Captain finds out that most of the world's military bases across the globe have been wiped out by an unknown enemy. He is told about a surviving base that is nearby, owned by Sky Gamblers, a group of veteran pilots with an extensive history. He is warned that there is a heavy enemy presence between him and the base, and given a P51 Mustang and advised to fly through the canyons to evade enemy air patrols. While flying through the canyon, Captain encounters enemy helicopters and ground troops, and discovers a small enemy base (destroying this base is optional). When Captain exits the canyon, he is spotted by enemy patrols, but he is protected by reinforcements from the SG base, and safely arrives at the base.

4: Fighting Back/Piece of the Puzzle[]

The mission begins with the Captain launching an attack against the enemy-held city's power plants. After the power plants are destroyed, a dogfight commences over the city, in which Captain participates in.

After the enemy aircraft have been destroyed, SG's ground forces assault the city, and Captain is tasked with providing air support by targeting enemy ground forces. After destroying marked enemy units, he is then tasked with disabling the airport (which continues to launch enemy aircraft until disabled) and the bridge, followed by a bombing of the enemy command building. After this is finished, Captain is again tasked with clearing the way for SG's ground forces, destroying several enemy-held buildings.

The Captain is then ordered to attack the enemy carriers, destroying those that are marked. Finally, the Captain aids in destroying the remaining enemy forces and fully capturing the city.
