Battle Reviews
Sorry, but Mission 5 really bites the big one. At least half the enemy fighters couldn't be bothered to fire at me while I sat at zero throttle, slowly chipping away at each capship's shield and hull values.
I might not be a great mission designer or anything, but this battle actually has a PLOTLINE. Compared to way too many other battles I've flown and that have bored me almost to death while flying it, this battle is pure gold, and I'm not saying that cause I designed most of it. And yeah, go sleep on the couch, K.
A note to all future mission designers... don't use emoticons like :P and :) in briefings. You'll either find the long drawn out almost-nothing-relevant-to-the-plot briefings and inside jokes in this mission really funny or really lame, but you will understand why this was originally called "Typhoon Squadron Battle" (...of disobedient squadron punks who don't listen to my radio orders >:P)! I guess this is one of those battles that draws the fine line between stupidity and wit...you'll love it or you'll hate it... you'll find ship with names like "Uh Oh" "Yummy" "Tae-Kwan-Do" (it 'Kwon'!) "Howdy" and "Yeeha" and that'll either bring a smile to your face or make you sick to your stomach. I did enjoy killing Lerner in Mission #4, though, but there are some days I just don't feel like taking on the entire Rebel fleet alone in a TIE Defender, you know? My wife helped make this battle, so I know I'm going to be sleeping on the couch for the next week or so when she reads this...
