Battle Reviews

Spread out attack enemy platform mission where you're mostly focusing on eliminating a starfighter threat. A few issues with allied flight group orders (they all RTB once the primary targets are destroyed) leads to a few issues for me in terms of 'realism', as it then quickly descends into you vs. X-Wings and Y-Wings who are doing runs on your capital ship, or targeting you, as the only Imperial snubfighter in the AO.


Another so/so mission, really the difficulty is waiting for your gunboats to take out the targets (on easy). Some decent dogfighting, but your opponents are pretty well out-numbered. This might matter more for higher difficulties but not on easy because they didn't even reach the ship before the battle ended, but some Y-Wings did show up at the very end of the battle as the platforms were very low health. They made a straight shot for the Challenge (which, sadly, survived the encounter [jokes, love you guys]) so I would watch out for those.


Attack on two facilities where you serve as the fighter escort to the strike team. You end up having to take out a few waves of fighters but that's it. Pretty straight forward mission that doesn't surprise but delivers a decent experience.


I like this mission a lot more than most of the garbage currently floating on the surface. The mission creator actually understands here how to anti-cheese the players. Nice standalone mission. May return for a try at the high score. This one felt earned!


Some nice dogfighting in a T/A against missile shooting alphabet fighters. Also your group has to give protection to the bombers running on the Platforms, but they are unloading rockets, so that isn't the hard part of the mission at all. Player will be entangled in frequent dogfighting and dodging missiles. Fun to fly, though. Give it a try.


Preety good, the only minus is, that you start 12 kms from the enemy.. a bit too far. Overall nice mission if you want to practice dogfighting skills.


cool mission :)

1. Loadout screen has option to cycle between loadouts, but its purely limited to missiles.
2. All friendly snubfighters (including your own wing) RTB upon completion of the primary objectives, despite there still being a strong rebel presence on the map.
