I enjoyed these missions, but agree with Jagged. The twitchy controls, especially on a joystick, make flying these fighters challenging. There are also a number of bugs which complicate things.

Nothing felt technically wrong, but the briefings didn't seem to give much information, and there did not feel to be a narrative to speak of. I had a very hard time with the missions on medium, but they felt much too easy on easy. I'm not sure how I was supposed to know how to call in the fleet on the last mission; I spent a lot of time trying to complete that mission alone.

Played on easy with full cheats. I don't really like the rebel fighter patch as I find the controls too twitchy. Ok battle.

Typical Rion fare : an engaging overarching plot with competent missions, unfortunately bogged down by poor writing.
My twenty-fourth battle in the TIE Corps.

Another Rion's series easy to fly, no nonsense battle. Classic in its conception it carries a not so sophisticated plot, but is effectively put into place throughout all missions. A variety of different roles will keep you busy and is a no brainer, just old school shoot'em up entertainment. An upcoming classic.
Battle Bug Reports
2025-08-18
The battle needs a grammar/spelling check. Missions 2-5 have issues with craft colliding with ships, stations & asteroids.
Mission 1: If you do not disable the modified corvette Krhui within 1:52 of the mission starting, it will crash into freighter Galoryu, causing both ships to explode.
Mission 2: Laser Battery Battery III is directly in the path of the CRS Fear, and will collide with it and gradually do massive damage if it is not killed fast enough. Craft that are targeting you/your allies will randomly switch targets for no apparent reason. Zeppelin spelled incorrectly.
Mission 3: T/A group Last Hope arrives when the factory is at 50% hull, meaning you only have time to kill one wave of them before the factory explodes. Scout Craft Recon is on a friendly IFF, but destroying it is a bonus goal. Z-95 Headhunter group Lioure never arrives due to having an incorrect launch trigger set. Fighters that launch from the Escort Carrier Zepplin travel through the factory, and will frequently crash into its' base upon finishing their launch. Zeppelin spelled incorrectly. X-Wing lasers on single fire do not fire in the sequence displayed on the screen. For example, if your laser indicator says it will fire the top leftmost laser, it will fire a different one.
Mission 4: X-Wing lasers on single fire do not fire in the sequence displayed on the screen. For example, if your laser indicator says it will fire the top leftmost laser, it will fire a different one. Not All capital ships will fire upon each other despite being in range.
Mission 5: Not All capital ships will fire upon each other despite being in range. Bonus for destroying Tie Fighter group Trainee set to 0 points.

In mission #1, the M/CRV smashes into a FRT. I use TIE95.
