Not very well put together for a few different reasons. One is that you are never given a beam system in the missile boat. Another is that you are often given chaff when the enemy craft has no warheads and flares would have been better. An additional reason is that you are always alone in your flight group. You have allies but because they are not in your FG you are unable to give commands to any of them. Enemy fighter or installations are often placed too close to your own, and because their AI is better you will immediately lose craft. There were also a few nonsensical things happening (your allies disabling craft with communications parts before you have even inspected them for the parts), your capital ships having very low AI and having to destroy your own satellites to complete a mission objective which means it cannot get a good score.

Good constructed missions with some serious fire power as you control the Missile Boat and just wreck everything with bolts on it. Don't forget to leave a rocket/torpedo in one of your launchers or you won't have access to your missiles. This mission kinda has it all from a missile boat perspective. Blow lots of stuff up and use missiles to take out fighters. Good length too. Story? meh who cares when you can blow stuff up.

Rewarding but nothing unique. The typical destruction brought to you by Missile Boats and TIE Defenders! There are some interesting setups, especially the first mission which yet again showcases the creativity of the mission creator.

Well, this one is one of those with mixed emotions. The plotline is interesting, and the missions are somehow well developed, not perfect, but techincally crafted, however, as it happens frequently, there is no understanding of the different fighters available to the player. I mean, why in Palpatine's name is anyone flying a Missile Boat WITHOUT beams? And as the battle may sound like a very good one on the preliminaries, once you start flying it, unfortunately develops into some tedious missions, confusing roles and somehow not one that you would note for the playing experience. Fly it to fill your FCHG pockets and focus into some jewels out there. Look elsewhere

Well. It's an average battle. Great minus is wingmen AI skill. They are dumb like stones and some missions can only be achieved in one craft. I didn't even bother to fly T/A in any mission. Plot however is very intresting.

This just lacked a small bit of spzazz to be a 5. Its got Kate's usual perfection incorporated into the design...However the plotline left me juuust a bit bored. Having said that, it is better than any regular mission designer's battle, But this is a 4 in the Flyer scale :P Good work.
