Battle Reviews
Meh.
Lots of Z95s to kill across multiple missions. Lots of caps to kill.
Its ok. Briefings are incredibly simple.
This was a pretty good battle, no glaring bugs. Point lost for that one mission where you had to kill all the Z-95s even after disabling the PLT and VSDs. That should have been a secondary objective because it was really tedious and pointless.
I'm taking a point off for mission 3, which is awful and incredibly easy to fail through enemy friendly fire or craft escaping or waves not appearing. The rest of the battle is okay to spam. However, I am taking the point off for every time I have flown this battle and been frustrated by mission 3, which could well be every RtF from 2014-2020. It might actually be on a -2. Perhaps this long block of text has caught your eye. Perhaps you're weighing up whether or not to fly this battle. Let me decide for you: no.
Good:
Battle don't have any critical bugs.
Bad:
Too easy even on hard.
Enemy cap-ships are ramming each-other
Ordering cap-ships is a bad idea as it could make impossible to finish your mission
Briefings are just one screen
This battle is not too bad and features the T/D in most of the missions with the Mis being placed in the remaining ones. Being able to order *all* of your ships around (including the Cap ships)was a bit of a novelty, but mission 3 was *very* long and had a lot of Z-95s in it. The only real problem with the battle is the 'one question' briefing officer and scanty mission maps.
This battle had potential, but bogged down in a number of minor (but annoying) errors. I had to skip Mission 3 because two of the waves of Z-95s refused to appear. Also, the lack of decent maps and one-question officer briefings was annoying. Overall an easy battle, and one that's good for some FCHG points.
