I step down in the story from XWA-F 50. The game play was fine, although I had to finish the inspections after the rebels were discovered as i did not save the M/CRV for last. I should have known better.

Interesting mission about inspection and protection of your fleet. It's mostly about dogfighting in a T/A against the whole spectrum of alphabet fighters, but although monotonous in the premise, it was quite fun. Worth a try.

It all points to the Crazy R2. This is a recon mission (first 4 minutes) followed by a bit of dogfighting. Pick up the beam to give yourself more speed. For a recon mission, it felt good. Especially with so many ships appearing and the occasional sneaky target. Possible high score candidate.

Yes, it's a simple inspection mission - It's not all fun and games afterall.... the
boring jobs have to be done too.
Inspect all the cargo carrying vessels that stop by the Pyrath Naval Base for illicit
contraband or untaxed goods.
NOTE

You need the XWA (or at least all the ships involved there), as far as i know
