Battle Reviews

This is a relatively fast battle to play and it has a decent story, it just isn't amazing like I would expect from Frodo.


Another solid Frodo battle. Well built and written but nothing special.


It's identical to TIE-DB #16, which I enjoyed more for whatever reason. But it's a solid XWA-DB battle, well balanced and enjoyable from start to finish


Everything worked, though there were 2 missions that logically are flawed where your capital ships hyper out as a mission objective, leaving you behind in a T/I with no hyperdrive or ship to dock with. Left me feeling unloved and unappreciated


Excellent battle. Versitile and fun missions flying my favorite craft, the Interceptor and the Advanced.


A good, quick and fun mission.

Odd bug on one playthrough, where in mission 1 the ATR was sitting and waiting for disabled craft, with 3 transports clearly disabled. Felt a strange sense of deja vu with the plot line and mission.


Good battle, fun to fly. The plotline is even better than the flying itself in this one. Only one thing bothered me, as having all these cool bad-ass names for every flight group, having a FRG CookiePlanet just felt a bit ..., out of line, to say the least. But maybe it's an inside joke not for the uniniated. Also, the ending leaves you with a cliff-hanger. What happened to the Grand Master? Did he die? Is he still in a coma? DA Drak managed to rise to the Grand-Mastercy?


Decent battle. Quick action, no patches required. If you want FCHG points, look no further. I found the first mission to be the most challenging, those thereafter were less demanding. It was a little simple in the fiction department, though. As it was created for a Vendetta, that's understandable. Nevertheless, this battle misses an opportunity as a Vendetta background has potential for a great story.

Missions two's and three's endings don't make sense. Mission goals are for the cap ships to hyper out. But that leaves you stranded with a hyperspace incapable Interceptor. So you need to "q" out of the mission instead of hypering out or landing in your ISD's hangar.
