Battle Reviews

I found this to pretty hard actually! Simple primary goals, but don't too close to those rebel cap ships as they really pack a bunch! As soon as I got the mission complete message, I was out of there!


Simple, limited mission in scope seeing you fend off 36 starfighters (including of course, sigh, Rogue Sqdn), a Nebulon B and a Strike Cruiser.

Loses points for use of Rebel snubfighters as playable vessel.


Not a bad little mission, pretty easy to finish but fun.


I enjoyed this one. Nice little story.
Easy and well built.


Good mission - will be flying this one again at some point. Good use of 'neutral' ships to aid the story-line of the mission.


Defend a freighter as it is boarded. The mission itself is pretty basic, but the use of Freighters made me think of all the good Frodo missions. This one isn't all that spectacular but the design of the mission runs well and there are no real headaches for the players to deal with.


I am intrigued. One of the missions I'd like to one day return and replay it on hard and see what it has to offer for a high score attempt. People should not be afraid to be more adventurous with single missions.


A quick and fun mission. Fly a T/A or a Y-W while protecting a delivery. Expect the usual cap ship hypering in and turning your day into a nightmare, but worth a try and very enjoyable, fast, mindless killing of rebels.


A quick little skirmish encounter. Has some slightly interesting elements, but nothing surprising. I am sure these sorts of cameo missions would feel a lot more in depth, if I knew any of the specific pilots. All before my EH time. Enjoyable none-the-less. No bugs found
