The Liberation of Karbarra was the first major operation for the Sentinels.
History[]
The Karbarrans were a powerful and industrial race. They fell under the attack of the Invid, but they resisted until the Regent ordered all Karbarran's childrens to be taken hostage. The threat to execute them if they revolted cowed the Karbarrans into submission.
But not all the Karbarrans were on planet: some of these had been taken captive onboard the zoo ship later called Farrago. Led by L'Ron, they revolted, creating the resistance army known as the Sentinels. After obtaining help for the Robotech Expeditionary Force on Tirol, they began their liberation campaing on Karbarra, intendind to use their industry to arm them.
The Farrago found a Invid force in space, but thanks to the surprise effect, they managed to annihilate it without any losses.
The battle started with a recon team sent down to the surface, led by Admiral Rick Hunter in a Karbarran shuttle.
Meanwhile, the Farrago was attacked by two Invid Carriers, although both were destroyed.
Later, as the recon team ventured underground, the shuttle was attacked by two Hellcats, but Rem and Gnea fought them off, though not before one sabotaged their comm system.
Admiral Lisa Hunter concocted a plan to use Tesla to trick the Invid Brain into letting the Farrago land. On approach, they dropped a squadron of destroids.
The recon member Kami was captured by Inorganics, and imprisoned with the Karbarran children, but soon came up with a plan to break out, indicating the rest of his team the location of the children.
As the Sentinels attacked, they inspired Dhremel to lead the Karbarrans in an attack. The combined might of the Sentinels, along with freeing the children, resulted in the liberation of the planet.
Afterward, the Sentinals agreed to go to Praxis next. They had expected to use Karbarra's industries to requip themselves, but in vain: all the Karbarran' ships had been sabotaged, and they weren't able to use their factories in several weeks.
