Woof. Poor design choices, odd ship selection, and limited loadouts gives this one a rough difficulty that feels cheap rather than challenging. Some issues with the cap ships throughout this battle too - a bunch of cap ships early on have "hold steady" orders; a trio of CRVs have starfighter orders later on and will chase you down (hopefully you swapped out rockets for missiles so you can deal with them). And of course, your SO contact will provide no advice if you do poorly; only incrimination. It's more or less what I've come to expect when flying DB battles, but that doesn't make it any less disappointing.
There's a couple of nice bits of plot here and there, and it is playable... just not as good as it could be with some more finesse.

Previous reviews are invalid - the battle has since been updated and mission 4 is extremely reasonable. However, mission 5 asks far too much while giving you far too little...
Overall, it is an enjoyable battle with a solid plot and good writing. It does ask a lot of you while putting you often in unshielded craft, but that's part of the challenge !
My forty-sixth battle in the TIE Corps.

Extremely poor mission design for mission #4, one of the worst battles I've ever flown....

Mission 4's poor design forces me to give this battle a very low overall rating. When its impossible to complete the objectives because the ships that have to be inspected hyper in, then immediately hyper out, that's not what I call a well designed plot.

Description: ------------ BATTLE SUMMARY: After a period of upheaval in the clan due to the exiling or execution of many former brethren who could not or would not live up to the principles of our dark clan and houses, a resupply and rebuilding program is in full progress. For example, the Sith Squadron has been reorganized into TIE Bomber, TIE Interceptor and Assault Gunboat flights to fit the varied missions required of the unit. Supply lines are being re-established into the lawless Minos Cluster to ensure the logistical safety of the clan's two houses. MISSION 1 INFO: Supply ships under contract with the Brotherhood are reporting an attack on the far side of the Koros moon of Yridia II. Our House desperately needs these supplies to arrive safely at the House castle. The Sith squadron will be deployed to stop any such attack. BRIEFING: GUN Dark Jedi will enter hyperspace to emerge at Nav Buoy CT-55, where the attack has been reported.
