Non-mission critical bug, too easy, but a serviceable dogfight/destroy mission

Pretty standard mission really - concentrate on the fighters which warp in, and let your wing-men do the heavy lifting with the initial convoy attack, and you should be fine.

A pretty good, mostly defense-based mission. It was fairly short, and its goals were straightforward. If you work with your wingmen the convoy can be taken out so quickly that you've got about 30 seconds to idle around. After that, it's mostly about getting the cruiser to withdraw and making sure the Vanguard isn't being attacked by too many ships, or boarded.

Good mission about interdiction and destruction of a convoy, that turns into a desperate defense of your SD against a rebel cruiser and her complement of fighters and transports. Worth a try and some easy FCHG point in this one.

For a single mission (i.e. free type) this is excellent. This is what free missions should be about. Briefing was clear, the mission itself was clear. Some nice touches as well and the inflight messaging kept you informed about what was going on. You also have to use your speed from time to time, which is always nice to have. Will not provide any spoilers, but there was enough variation to make things interesting. The only issue is that the AI was a bit too strong, meaning you actually have to race ahead of them if you want a piece of the action. Possible high-score chaser for the future.

It was quite a fun and pleasurable mission to fly. I needed a few attempts to get the grasp of what's going on when. It wasn't extreemely challenging, still a solid mission.

It was ok. Easy yes. But interestingly the Vangaurd would seemingly self destruct if I went away from it to combat the new rebel craft after I had attempted to kill the CRV Death from kamikazing. every time i flew away from it five seconds later mission fail. There were no enemy craft nearby either...i'm perplexed. So i just flew by my ship the whole time and let the AI kill stuff. got me to win the mission at least.

All in all a good dog fight but, if you were to check the role of Echo squadron its V.I.P. escort not short range assault. It would also help if the corvette would plow through the ISD then rather stop right on top of the Vanguard. And its kinda strange when the corvette flys trough the Vanguard comes out and turns back into the ship.

It was an original idea (the ramming of the Vanguard) but I agree, it is a little easy :)

Title: Protect the Vanguard
Missions: 1
Game Platform: X-wing Alliance
Author: FL/CM Bip Delekhan/Echo 3-1/Wing XV/ISD Vanguard (darkstar3001@yahoo.com)

Installation Instructions:

1] Double click the .EHM file, the EH Battle Launcher will install the battle.
2] Check the Misc folder in your XWA for additional material like patches, emails or sounds. 
3] In EHBL, create a new "EH Pilot" in the Game Menu (Check "Prepare for EH Battle").
4] Press the X-Wing Alliance button to start XWA and fly the battle.


Description:

The Vanguard will be attacking a small undefended Rebel convoy.  Echo Squadron will launch and quickly destroy the convoy.  A Rebel task force is in the area but we expect to be gone by the time it arrives.

As Echo Squadron returns from destroying the convoy, a corvette comes out of hyperspace and rams the Vanguard.  Several squadrons of Rebel fighters and a CRL emmerge from hyperspace and Echo Squadron must hold off the attacking force until the VSD Aggressor arrives.

Note:  This mission contains hidden objectives for realism as a pilot would not know that the Vanguard would fall under attack at the start of the mission.
