Big Bad: Admiral Kulov, who orchestrates the Deimos Betrayal that starts the war. The enemy also has cruisers, which are just smaller Battlestars, since they carry fighters too. The Battlestar: The Carriers from both sides are the biggest warships with the most weapons in the fleet. Back from the Brink: Inversion, as the player character's efforts on behalf of the Alliance turn out to be a delaying action to allow colony ships to escape to the next game the Sirius system. (Top rank is "Squadron Commander" at 300.) Note that there are no other criteria here, Lets Player BCSBuster completely flubs Mission 4 and gets chewed out for it, whilst simultaneously getting promoted for passing the necessary kill threshold. Promotions, and thus access to new ships, are scheduled according to when you hit a certain number of kills. Asskicking Equals Authority: played straight, as these games are wont to. 
It's entirely possible to lose the game because the computer screws up an objective.
Your wingmates start off dumb, and get worse. The closest thing to a moral compass any of them shows is a Communication Officer giving a shocked raised eyebrow when Admiral Kulov orders the mass execution of prisoners of war.
Always Chaotic Evil: Everyone in the Coalition, from the Top Brass and Government to the lowliest Mook are, to a man, war criminals. The most notable allied ones are probably Klaus Steiner of the Vampires and Col. Ace Pilot: several, on both sides of the line.
