Fun set of missions. Only knock is the battle to capture the relay with the dreadnaught. Combat was over in 3 minutes and then it took another 10 for the dreadnought to complete the capture mission. Other than that, great battle.

Very engaging missions with a good story and flawless mechanics. I had fun. These were definitely on the difficult side for me on Medium, so I had to back off to easy, but they were good to complete.

PAR!
So for this battle, as it is in the original I have issues with the story as I did not find it too believable. But I could see the germ of a great story in it. This is the remaster where I changed the most of the original beats (so far) in making the progression of the action more believable and having the player have the option of not killing any non-droid EH forces if they are paying attention/know what is coming. It doesn't equal the best score strategy but narratively you can ignore all EH forces and just help disable your own ISD in the final mission and avoid all "Friendly" fire.

Introduction
-------------
Some of my favorite stories in the XWA database were written and made by RogueWing. He
graciously has given me permission to remaster his battles into TFTC and I have chosen
to remaster XWA-FCHG 3: Ronin's Deception.
Grand Admiral Ronin has unexpectantly shown up on the Immortal. He has an amazing
story to tell, which leads the Immortal on a mission to destroy one of her sister
ships...
Audio
-------------
This battle uses a mixture of human voices, both natural and using an AI voice changer
to alter my voice for the different roles.
Cast
