This beta was famous for the Krils, with the 525th Talons as their top squadron. Having mutinied me out of office early (long story), the Krils elected Talon and went on to smash the Bors in Apollo Sector and Tripe. Talon eventually made way for Legion, who led the Krils, who were clearly miles ahead due to large numbers of vets having ended up on their legion, to the destruction of Tibrar. Whilst destroying Tibrar however, the Bors attacked Krilgore, and a miscalculation on the part of the Kril leadership meant that the avenging Kril fleet arrived back home too late to save Krilgore, but early enough to all but obliterate the Bor fleet. The Krils then decided that they disliked the Bors more than the Ajax (just - SuicideSsquad had been playing both ends against the middle, but the Ajax would have been a walkover), and went on to destroy Boraxus in revenge, handing the game to the otherwise totally ineffectual Ajax.
