Starship Troopers: Invasion
スターシップ・トゥルーパーズ インベイジョン
Synopsis
Invasion starts with the Bugs launching an attack on Fort Casey, a Federation outpost. The fast attack ship Alesia is dispatched to assist the starship John A. Warden, currently stationed at Fort Casey, in evacuating survivors and delivering vital military intelligence to Earth. At the same time, Carl Jenkins, the head of the Ministry of Paranormal Warfare, takes the starship on a secret mission before rendezvousing with the Alesia, then vanishes into a nearby nebula. The veteran troopers are subsequently given a rescue mission that may lead to repercussions far darker than they ever anticipated.
