Emperor's Hammer Battle Center

This was actually a pretty fun battle with lots of stuff to shoot at, if you set lasers to max and transfer power to shields it's not overly difficult just make sure to get the Y-Wings at the end and of course don't try to take anything on in a jousting match.

A simple mission for a simple time. Its basic and there are more waves than you want to believe. Just keep waiting and keep killing and keep waiting and keep killing and eventually you'll get them all.

A simple mission, and one that can be completed quickly. It's basically some good practice against rebel alphabet craft, some of which have munitions to spice things up. No complaints, it does what it's supposed to.

Officer briefing was all fluff. It was wonderful. However there wasn't really any map briefing for this mission. As for the battle, just fight wave after wave of ships, until you are rewarded with a final wave of Y-Wings to slaughter.

A interesting battle that can be played on hard and is still manageable with a single run through. You could elect to send your wingmen home if you so wished, it may help with those who want a higher score but I found it useful to keep them around but tell them to ignore my targets incase I needed them at a future point in the mission. Overall a solid 4/5.

Quick little mission that has you fight repetative waves of two different types of crafts. Nothing exciting here, nothing terrible. Due to being in a TIE Defender you feel in control throughout the mission.

A simple, but quick and enjoyable mission. Kill a few waves of Z-95s, X-W and Y-W in the Space Cadillac. Sending wingmates home, even on Hard, doesn't make this mission too difficult and a good candidate for knocking out for FCHG.

This is an acceptable mission to complete for points. There is a plot... sort-of. However, the plot and shuttle are effectively meaningless because the enemy fighters ignore it entirely. Ultimately it's just mopping up some waves of rebel fighters. You're in a T/D with beam, aka. extra power. Pretty typical mission for its vintage. If you're going for score, send your wingmen home - they won't be needed.

As has been said many times about this one already- a straightforward, quick, simple mission. I flew it while waiting in a queue for a multiplayer game, and finished before we were matched!

Good material for a competition, this one. It's easy, simple and well developed. Certainly not a great challenge but a pleasant one. If you want to polish your initial skills in the Defender, this is a mission to consider. It will let you grow more confident at dogfighting while escorting a Shuttle without being frustrated at looking of the ashes of the package you had to escort. Fly it for training, fun or for competition consideration.

A very straightforward mission with a decent premise but very easy to kill enemies and not much time or effort needing to be exhausted. Pretty easy FCHG points for those who complete it or points in fleet-wide competitions.

Not much to say than what was said already. It's a quick mission, without any challenge whatsoever, and as Turtle said, you can't beat the HS. Do it for a competition (*coughRtFcough*), if you want fun, get another battle!

Average: there's no challenge to you (superfighter) or what you're protecting.

Fun TAC fact for future flyers - the high score is at the maximum possible total. 100% accuracy and all potential points earned.

The excuse of a honeymoon is just funny :)

You could assume the rebels want to kill them because they are generals (and two for the price of one)

As a battle, it is a straight-up shoot-em-up skirmish. Not sure why the Avenger is there...

This battle is only good for measuring how fast you can kill all the fighters. The TIE Defender is a true beast and you are never in any real risk

Pretty straightforward. Not a big challenge to be dead honest. You get to provide fighter screen for an outgoing SHU leaving from a SSD. Enemy fighters jumps in quite far away from their intended target. You and your squadron have to move to intercept them. You get a TIE Defender armed with advanced concussion missiles. This kind of mission is best suited for a competition on who finishes it off the fastest as the SHU is never truly at risk.

I didnt hate it. (Very) Simple dogfight. Nothing hugely exciting. Personally i think the rebel scum have more important things to worry about than our officers going on their honeymoon.
