Battle Reviews

A truly immersive experience...if you have the RAM for it, give it a go. One of the best missions I've flown.


Enjoyable mission, and it's hard not to rate any TFTC mission a 5 since it's pretty amazing but this lives up to the highest rating. Not sure what difficulty I ended up on, either easy or medium but I didn't find it too challenging and probably could have bumped it up.


A solid mission, though it drags a bit at the end. Perhaps some additional fighters to protect the shuttle, or have it try to escape during the launch of the fighters that attack the ATR? Felt very easy, though playing on Hard difficulty.


A bit partial since I get to see VA fr0Zen as the cargo for the ISDII Warrior and I have some fun lines, but I did find this a great balance between choices. I can go all out on the bombers, or the big ships, or both, or the fighters. Each choice produces different cascading priorities after that and the Hammer stays at risk regardless. Chasing packs of ships for advanced torpedo kills was fun to get the timing down. The enemy fighter craft kept me having to work. Played on hard, got all the challenge I could handle but I look forward to what players more skilled than I can do with this. Good show and thanks for the work to Jagged Fell and the team!


This is hands down, the most immersive free mission that I've played since joining Emperor's Hammer. Not only did we get a mission that coincided with Imperial Storm 7, but it was a nice conclusion to the entire plot line!

Hearing all of the voices was really cool, many pilots that I've known are cemented in EH history with this one! I loved hearing from everyone as I flew against the enemy.

This is a must fly mission!! The WAV files are mandatory to really get the full experience.


PAR!

I really enjoyed this opportunity to make an official plot mission. I think it is a lot of fun and am really proud of the backdrops I made for it and all the squadron patches on the craft that I put in as well. Please remember to read the emails and to play with all the optional audio files and backdrops.

Also, if you see your squadron out there, and you should see all active squadrons out there, take a moment to look at them with Alt+U, you won't be disappointed.


Very well done and immersive mission. It was incredible to have it link up with the event. Engaging waves of fighters and craft to combat; fun to be facing the First Order. Great stuff.
