Battle Reviews

No real difficulty, corvettes don't fire until you do so you can just park in their blind spot and blast away. None of the cap ships move.


A mission that portrays itself as a capture mission, but is actually more of a destroy everything and take hostages mission...at least, that's how I saw it. Either way, it was pretty fun to play, and it kept me on my toes, since taking on two calamari ships at once is no joke...that plus fighters, and you've got yourself a pretty well-rounded mission.


Nice mission about inspecting and disabling, then protecting a capture operation and finally wiping out 2 CRSs while in a T/D. It can become a little tedious in the end, since those CRS are tough to sink and your ordnance is limited, but worth a try, and another honest work for 1 FCHG point in the retirement fund.


It's always nice to chase down Rebels and show them no mercy as you shoot them down. I enjoyed this mission and it was a pretty straight forward mission. Give it a shot.


Not a bad mission, pretty simple but a target-rich environment for those high score hunters among the community! Could do with a text Commander Briefing, though! A solid four out of five from me.


Right off the bat, as you go through the briefing, you soon realize this mission was not tested. Blink and you lose the entire briefing. I guess it's the new way of ensuring pilots will pay attention. I had to scroll through it two or three times to manage to read it. The mission itself is ok, giving you a variation of things to do. Identify the corvette, disable the corvette, and destroy everything else. Perhaps good for a high score chase. I wanted to give this a higher score, I really did, but Elanor and Romelo, despite having so many friendlies around, had to be shot down almost exclusively by you. And of course, you fly in the obligatory fortress that is the T/D.


That's quite a nice mission. There's plenty to do. Chase rebel fighters, pound the bombers before they wipe your carrier off the face of the Galaxy. And try to help with the Cruisers inbetween. I really enjoyed the challenge and simplicity of this one.


This was a nice mission. I liked to disable the CRVs and capture those insidious Rebel officers. I tried to complete the mission with the standard complement of advanced missiles, but the second CRS jumped out before I could destroy it. Thereafter I flew the mission again with Mag Pulses, which was rather easy in comparison.


Good battle, with a lot of pirotecnics and fire; quite difficult to destroy boths Calamari, but is possible with the Mag Impulse launched not so far. Good work


Enemy AI is so weak, briefing so fast that I don't think a jedi could read it, and you lose because of a "time factor" you weren't aware of, not because you didn't kill enough guys (with a little more time a player could have destroyed all rebels craft almost by himself)


the battle put a negitve bonus score of 2,800 and gave me a total score of 143


Good mission but I could not finish it...
