Battle Reviews
quick but not so good......................................
I flew this as part of Raise the Flag competition 2021. Overall, the battle seemed straightforward with no major hang-ups. There is not much to say about it. It was fun but the battle did not contain any elements that makes it stand out from nearly every other battle you have ever flown.
It's OK, waves of fighters to destroy, a couple things to inspect. The 'cosmetic' aspect is not really well fleshed out, and sometimes just confusing or wrong. So again it's OK, fly for the points not the story.
Another silly set of Frodo missions. Good balance between objectives, great story line. This is one of the better missions to play if you don't mind some of the goofy stuff that comes from Frodo.
I don't really enjoy the ludicrous storylines but that's just me. I would have preferred something a bit more serious and you can always inject some humour into it. Maybe Frodo just overdosed on mission making, I don't know. :) As to the way this one plays, it's ok, it's solid. Several people may enjoy playing it.
Simple and effective. This battle was too short, for the many laughs I had while flying it. Frodo again comes with a piece of extravagant humour developed in a flawless battle. Again his fetish, the T/A is the tool at hand, but you will learn to love this bread-and-butter death machine. While sinking ships and dogfighting smelly opponents. Not to miss, this one.
I played on Easy. These were decent enough missions. You get to play as a couple of different craft and it's a little better than the usual 'kill 100 enemies' that you have to deal with on missions. You get to kill some Star Destroyers, escort some cargo, and there's some humor to the missions.
One of the few funny battles out there. Decently fun and the story line is good. Now I need to get some more Spaceterine!
It's "funny", which usually puts me off straight away, but the missions are interesting enough to keep me involved. Some of them are quite challenging especially if you get tunnel vision and forget to defend your Cap ships. Thank heavens for XvT's ability to swap ships I really don't like dogfighting in gunboats. The humor is very slapstick and a little tiresome, but if you can get past that you've got a decent mission to fly. 4 points from the English jury.
Yeah! This has the Hobbit's style on it, indeed. Frodo present us with a gift of humour and 4 easy missions... Well, actually in the second is a pain just to survive with those DIRTY elite dudes, but hey! They were elite, and they were VERY DIRTY!! Even the name of this new villain remembers me of some friend that... errr... What was I talking about? Oh, yes! A 4 is deserved for such a funny and fresh battle, even given the fact that I HATE to fight with GUNs due to their hellish-weak power-plant.
Another original and funny storyline. Good fun to play too. Beware of that dirty, dirty Unibrow!
I didn't really like this battle very well. I didn't find the humor very funny and the missions weren't very good IMO.
Well what can I say, we all need to keep our selfs looking good dont we. Loved the humor and the battles were fun to fly.
Not a bad battle with a bit of humor. Could use a few more rockets for the VSDs though.
Cool Battle!!! The briefings were amusing and the missions were good to fly. The dirty dirty DIRTY pirates were great idea. Wasn't very difficult, tho, even flying a GUN in the last two missions.
I liked this one, short, quick, lighthearted and fun. Also good to see the introduction of a minor villan into the EH realm, wouldn't mind seeing more like this.
Beware of SCOL Unibrow & his dirty elite squadron! ;p. A very funny battle with a different "villian" featuring dogfighting rebel & imp fighters and destroying VSD's- what's not too like? ;p. Not to mention disableing practice on ATR's. Overall a nice set of missions with a humorous plotline, well worth flying.
A very funny mission indeed... Fairly Short & Quick, but still lots of fun,
Goofball storyline plus funny briefing tidbits make for a fun, short, fairly easy battle. I especially liked the briefing in the first mission, where one half of the map is "clean" Imperials and the other half is the "dirty" pirates...it looks funnier than it sounds, trust me. A tad challenging to dogfight in a GUN, probably the most difficult part of the battle. Good stuff!
Yay! I flew this for a competition, so it was on Hard... I remembered why I usually don't do that... took me forever to survive mission 2, but it felt good when i did... My gripe was that the first two missions were kinda the same... the fourth wasn't much different... However, they were all well-done and I found no bugs and I actually paid attention to the, uhh... "storyline." Silly but fun.
Now this is an interesting battle: The Plot is very well written and is funny, it involves you in the chase of a pirate Colonel by the name of Unibrow (indicative that Frodo has watched Austin Powers). The missions are challenging, especially in HARD Difficulty, cause your home ship tends to be blown to bits if you dont pay attention. Congratulations on this one Frodo!
Nice battle! I really liked flying it. Good missions. The only problem, if you could call it that, is that the missions are a little bit easy, except the fourth! Very nice battle though. Thanks Frodo :P
Frodo starts making good Battles ;) Honestly, very well designed, but sick plotline, but well designed :)
