Battle Reviews

Played on easy with full cheats. My extreme dislike of waits makes this a zero.


This is a very action-intensive, challenging battle with lots of dogfighting and interception. On the surface it seems like it would be a great battle, and it does have some good moments. Unfortunately all of the five missions are essentially the same. Protect capital ship as it escapes, while destroying a blockade of enemy ships, and wave after wave of bomber craft. Difficulty varies between missions, with some much harder than others. Some have excessive waves of craft, some are tolerable. Bonus objectives are mostly absent, and primary objectives sometimes take a long time. Quality isn't great, as many missions have at least one bug in them. Capital ships colliding or clipping through each other are the worst offenses, but there are some other minor bugs as well.


I feel like each mission was identical to the last, with the ship your supposed to protect changing, and your enemies cycling. EVERY mission was revolving around either protecting your home ISD, or protecting a VST that came to save the ISD because star destoryers don't know how to hyper at the same time.


This battle was, as the others already said, desperately boring. While not particularly terrible, you essentially just spend your missions to slowly wittle down so capital ship so one of your own can go to hyperspace, which, in this battle, usually takes almost five minutes. Not terrible, but just not good.


was it me or half this battle was waiting fot the monitor to enter hyper space


An exercise in tedium.


It was okay. Some complaints I have: - Too repetitive for my liking, often it is just wait for the VSD Monitor or whatever to hyper out after destorying something. - Mission 3 - E/S Blade 1 hypers out way too fast...

Battle 21
Break The Sky
					   (5 missions)
Designer:  CMDR/GN Lucas/Delta I/SSD Avr
Medal:  TBA

Mission 1
The newly received SSD Avenger is still having a few problems with the hyperdrive unit.  The
Avenger was forced to drop to sublight speed when the mass detector incorrectly indicated a
steep gravity well ahead.  The rest of the strike fleet was well ahead of the Avenger when the
trouble was noticed.  Alone and stranded, the flagship must make a stand against an
approaching rebel fleet.  How did the Rebels know of the exact location of the Avenger?
Coincidence?  Perhaps.....  Protect the Avenger against the first wave of attacking starfighters!

Mission 2
The first wave has been beaten back, and the rest of the Hammer Fleet is coming to our aid.
Hold out just a little bit longer.  Prevent the next wave of Rebel scum from washing over the
Avenger.  Beware, some starfighters are carrying heavy rockets and space bombs.

Mission 3
The Avenger has taken some large hits during the past two attacks.  Now that the hyperdrive is
online, the starfighters and the VSD Monitor will cover her withdrawl from the battle area.  Keep
alert for unscheduled shuttle launches.  The newly formed Emperor's Fist may may be put to the
test in a capture operation.

Mission 4
Time to cut and run.  Now that an internal traitorous plot has been foiled, and the loyalty of the
crew restored, the remaining capital ships of the Emperor's Hammer will make their way to the
hyperspace point.  The Monitor will be the first ship to leave, followed by the Formidable.  This
fighting retreat, however, should provide quite a surprise for the Rebel scum.

Mission 5
The Hammer is not quite out of the woods.  The VSD Formidable still is making its way to the
hyperspace point.  Unfortunately, an interdictor cruiser has just arrived.  Where did the rebels get such a piece of hardware?  Well, that point will be researched lated.  You know what to do.
Clear the way for the Formidable's withdrawal.
