Battle Reviews
It has a storyline, and the missions as a concept fit in. Where it fails is the laziness exhibited, evident both in the briefing and inflight. It's a shame. I was thinking it could have pushed up to 4 or 5 with a bit more effort. On the plus side, laziness means a quick battle. And quick it is. At least it's not just another dogfight.
This was a decently prepared four mission battle. The earlier missions are probably a bit stronger that the latter, especially mission four (where I managed to clean out everybody and then just had to sit around waiting for AI ships to dock). There is some versatility in craft selection between the missions, which is always a plus in my opinion. The plot or mission objectives weren’t overly complicated, but moved along appropriately. Overall a decent fly. I flew it on hard.
I played on Easy with cheats enabled. I can't really speak to much on this battle except that it's very fast. If you want a battle that's extremely quick and gets you points, this one is for you.
Relatively easy to complete for the RTF competition. Missions go pretty quick and they aren't too bad in terms of crazy number of ships attacking the spacecraft that you have to protect. All in all solid on story side of things as well.
It's a smart idea - the tie in of Dark Troopers was quite cool! The execution was reasonable however easily completed. For RtF or FCHG this is a good one to complete as it's relatively easy.
I really enjoyed the tie-in of Dark Troopers for this. That said, they didn't really do much with it, there wasn't much of a narrative and the briefings were pretty basic. The mission design itself was pretty basic and repetitive too. Overall could've been something a lot cooler with a little more effort.
This is a four mission battle based around the Dark Trooper plot line of Dark Forces. I love the tie in with the game however the plot line does little to explore the story. The plot as well as the briefings get particularly thin towards the back end of this battle.
I found the battle to be incredibly easy though enjoyable enough to play.
Average.
Too easy and simplistic, but entertaining nonetheless.
i think this is a great battle with a orginal plotline and lots of fighting would have got a five if a bit longer
Well balanced, joy to fly! (yeah, perhaps easier than FCHG-1, but hooray!!)
Good missions, can be chalenging at times.
Interesting plot, but it quickly turned into a "kill 'em all and let Vadar sort 'em out" kind of thing. I would have liked to see a couple of plot twists; perhaps there's a traitor and in the heat of battle some shuttles need to be inspected. Something along those lines. But, on the whole, it was a good battle. Not too hard, but not too easy.
An excellent battle! Easy in parts, but the storyline is good. I love to see custom missions expanding on the established SW timeline. Good job!
This mission is fast-paced and high on kill ratios. Capital ships move haphazardly, spinning in different directions, which unfortunately cuts down on realism. Missile boat missions are the hardest. Still, a fun mission with TONS of action!
The word easy flashes before my eyes. Many times. Note to all pilots: Always fly missions on hard!
Nice battle. Not too hard, but not too easy. Well-done plot.
