Battle Reviews

A buggy mess that features multiple ships/stations missing orders/ multiple starships crashing into the factory, confusing mission goals and starfighters having the player's flight group as a mothership. Enemy fighters shouldn't exclusively target the players FG.


This is a poorly designed battle. I hope you are reading this. If you get stuck pondering how to finish the mission once 100% of the enemies are dead. You need to trigger YOUR FLIGHT GROUP's second wave! Ensure to send home your wingmen home and go home yourself to do that, otherwise, you'll be stuck in limbo waiting for the mission to complete itself.


Long mission though entertaining about wiping out everything. GUNs with beams and rockets, finally!. Nuke everything in your path while flying with beam power to engines, shooting down everyone. The mission was a lot of fun to fly, though you have to be in the mood for a long session of grinding down everything there is. The firepower is there, player's stamina will be the question. Worth a well-earnt FCHG point.


This gets a two because it's not a bad mission, it's just got some things that need tweaking. The Gunboats need to attack the facility not the fighters, the player needs to know the CRL will jump in then out if the base is destroyed too soon, not make every fighter a primary target so I have to mute the radio, that kind of thing.


Next to the dumb mission goal, if the objective is to destroy the facility, why make it a primary goal to destroy all starfighters too. And I was forced to fly the lame gunboats because they didn't have orders to attack the facility or cap ships, so if I didn't do it, no one would :(


A hard dogfight mission, with silly objectives like making sure one ship of each flight group will return home.

The Modified Corvette and the CRL will crash into the factory and destroy it and themselves, sometimes the CRL will survive. All fighters will target the player's flight group. VSD Revenge has no orders. Z-95 Gold will never arrive as they have a mothership set to be the player's FG. Suns of Tatooine spelled incorrectly. Factory is missing orders. Imperial fighters have primary orders that cannot be fulfilled due to the fact that Z-95 Gold never arrives, meaning they will not always attack their next ordered targets as they should.

Bonus goals are impossible to complete as many FG's on both teams have a goal that requires any of FG to complete mission.

Plotline: In order to damage the Republic's control on this sector we will destroy their starfighter facility here. The facility is their main station in the sector so its destruction will severly weaken them. 
Renagade Squadron, Rage Squadron and Falcon Squadron will lead the attack. The VSD Revenge will be the command ship. Destroy the fighter squadrons defending the Facility and the the LT Calamari Cruiser that is station nearby and may well drop in the defend the facility. Any other complications that may arise will be dealt with during the mission.
