Pretty straight forward set of missions. Most of it has you dogfighting with your typical pirate type craft, with a few disable and capture missions thrown in. Some of the disable/capture missions do drag on a bit, to speed those up, concentrate on disabling or knocking down shields of target craft asap. No bugs to report that I found.

If you like dogfighting a lot, this is a great set of missions. The battles feel quite large in scale, with the enemy craft and capital ships bringing a wide range of opposition. The sotryline was pretty basic, but the mission briefings were pretty well put together. I only encountered one bug, which was in the first mission (logged). I gave this a 4 overall, as I felt it was more a 3.5, but it was rather enojoyable to fly.

Honestly not a bad set of missions. There is a little bit more to do than just dogfighting in each mission, which breaks it up a little bit. Not a bad selection of mission craft available also. A good set of missions for newer XvT pilots to test their multi-tasking skills in. No bugs found.

A fairly run-of-the-mill battle. 99% of this is dogfighting, with the only deviation being that of mopping up unexploded enemy cruisers or platforms. While nothing jumps out at me as being spectacular, I didn't run into any game breaking or mission failing bugs, so that is a plus!

While I flew this on easy as apart of RtF 2022, I still found the missions and story to be enjoyable. There is a varied set of both missions and craft to fly. With so many battles out there of average rating, it's nice to come across one so well built. No bugs found.

A well ported version from TIE to XvT. A great set of missions, which can be very challenging on the higher difficulties. While this was very well ported, and the WAV pack to bring in Lord Vader's voice over the comms is awesome, I cannot give a 5 rating as it is not original content. Still, loads of fun to be had. No bugs found.

Ship variety for these missions are good, provided you enjoy flying rebel craft. Missions are okay, nothing to write home about. Story is a little silly, but light hearted. Be prepared for A LOT of waiting aorund in mission five (5). I would legit say that there was 5 minutes of battle to 20 minutes of waiting. Bug found, reported.

The missions were a little on the short side. With this being said they were fairly fun to fly. Some missions can be completed very quickly if you think outside of the box, but perhaps that was the intention. The storyline is funny, if even a little bit of a stretch considering the medium. No bugs found.

A fantastic set of missions. There is a lot of variety to be found within. I found the briefings and the story to be well written and very plausible. There is a nice change of scenery with craft choices also. I really did enjoy flying this BSF. No bugs found.

An above average set of battles. Each mission is a different scenario which is nice. Nothing really stands out too much from other Battles however. Story line is average, but the briefings and back story are well written. Found a slight bug in mission 2.

A very standard set of dogfighting missions. Battle briefing will tell you that you are required to protect a dignitaries shuttle, but it never comes under fire. So you are left to mop up enemy fighters which apparently, pose no threat to anyone. I flew the battle on MEDIUM and didn't come under fire once, other than engaging a COR transport. This battle should be used for new XvT pilots to find their feet. No bugs found.

Missions were very bland. Had to pay no attention to the actual storyline. Couldn't tell you what the actual mission requirements were other than destroying enemy fighters. Which on that subject: I flew the battle on MEDIUM, wasn't shot at ONCE. Enemy fighters seemed to avoid combat completely. This was perhaps the easiest battle to complete ever. A couple of bugs found to report.

Considering this one was put together by Frodo, there wasn't that much wierd stuff going on. This battle is literally a straight 20 minute dog fight against Tie fighters. Which while fun, doesn't feel that nice shooting down Imperial craft. Regardless of that, I found no bugs and it was still fun to fly. This would be a great training mission for new pilots.

I'm going to admit that I have never met Frodo, and to be honest, I hope I never do. This guy appears to be an absolute madman. I can see what he was trying to do with this battle. But it was no less of a mind mess regardless of that. The missions were short, yet surprisingly well put together. Other pilots have submitted bug reports for a collision between Dreadnaughts, I somehow feel as tho this is by Frodo's design, so I will not be submitting a bug report.

For the most part this is a fun battle. The story line, while fairly simple, is quite believable. The mission is well put together, I found no bugs. It is however impossible to finish without calling in reinforcements, and while not being able to kill the Corvette without it colliding with your Interdictor does drain a little fun out of the battle.

While the dog fighting and mission idea are pretty good. The actual execution of the whole mission is very average at best. Can be a bit of waiting at times and you are hard pressed to destroy all craft given the mission parameters. DO NOT DESTROY the enemy ATR or the mission will actually ever end.

Not a bad set of missions to fly, quite a bit of variety and craft available. Briefings were...well, brief, but you got the idea of what was required in each mission. Really not a fan of flying rebel craft, but that is just personal taste. Didn't encounter any bugs.

This battle was quite a bit of fun to fly. While the majority of it revolves around dogfighting, there are a few other objectives and ways to go about completing the battles. I thought the storyline was pretty good and well written. I didn't encounter any bugs.

I found this 4 mission battle to be quite a bit of fun. Mission briefings are well laid out and written, objectives are very clear and achievable on higher difficulty levels. Quite a believable story line to boot also. All around, I highly recommend flying this one. No bugs to report.

To be honest, I found this set of missions to be pretty boring. Majority of your time is just spent dogfighting X-Wings. With that being said, it would be a useful training tool for new EH pilots and pilots new to XvT to fly. No bugs found.

Not a bad set of missions set within this battle. Several missions involve heavy dogfighting, culminating in a final battle amongst an asteroid field which was quite cool. Would be very good as a co-op battle to fly. No bugs found

The majority of this battle will have you dogfighting, with not many other objectives to really accomplish. Finishing the dogfights quickly will have you sitting around waiting a bit for mission objectives to complete. No bugs found

Another faithful port of Tie FIghter over to the XvT Engine. Fair bit of waiting around on this one, makes it a tad dreary. 4 out of 5 stars as not original content. No bugs found.

Another faithful re-creation of TIE into the XvT engine. Nothing beats starting out your Imperial career on the illustrious Station D-34. Mission #3 is a personal favourite of mine. 4 stars due to not being original content. No bugs found
