XvT-F 237: Dempsey's Quest #7: The Invasion Begins
Battle Information
Battle Reviews
A poorly balanced mission that pits the player against four squadrons of planetary fighters, all with missiles. The fighter is so manoeuvrable that it just sits behind all your AI craft and shreds them within 30 seconds. You get no countermeasures, no beam system and only one craft wave. Avoid at all costs.
I think it's a very good Missile Boat mission, in that the Missile Boat gets to do Missile Boat-y things while the difficulty is still kept at a reasonable level without being super cheap (other than, of course, Advanced Torpedoes over Rockets. Rockets are expensive!)
Another solid mission from Dempsey. It's simple and straightforward, but very much fun to play it. The addition of some things different gives an extra appeal to this basic yet very well crafted and enjoyable bombing run in a Missile Boat, WITHOUT any beams....
