Battle Reviews

Another poorly put together battle. It has good ideas, but you never get more than one craft wave for some strange reason, never get good warheads and are expected to do far beyond what your craft is capable of on higher difficulties.


Some interesting ideas, a fairly straightforward battle.

My seventy-forth battle in the TIE Corps.


Some changes were made to reduce waiting times and so on. Still, I agree with what's said before. It's a decent idea, but technical realization could be better.


Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggg........


Gah 1st mission u wait like 20 minutes and later your wingman destroyes critical craft.. never again


Good sound mission idea’s, let down by poor technical settings within the missions. Both Craft Orders and Waypoints would benefit from a complete rethink. But still worthy of a bash, beware of mission 1 it can be very frustrating.


This battle is very poor. Bug in first mission and enemy AI sucks. There is easy solution to disable all X/Ws. You have to send you wingmen home and fight with 12 X/Ws (3groups) using Y/W. But only 3 X/Ws attacking you (FLs). You have to disable FLs and noone will attack you.


I don't normally like IW battles, but this was not bad as far as they go. There was a little too much waiting around though.


Battle Bug Reports

2024-09-28

Mission 1: Y-Wing razor 3 collides with freighter chance and is destroyed due to having conflicting flight paths.

Mission 3: Rejuvenator spelled incorrectly.

Mission 4: T/A Elite somehow enters the hangar of the Serpent’s Smile from 15km away. Once Primary mission objectives are completed, T/A Elite 1 immediately aborts mission while the rest do not.

Mission 5: Fact/1 Hijarna has no orders. Y-Wing Shadow crashes into the Factory when attacking it as a result. ISD Serpent’s Smile collides with CRS Warspite. All starships designated as secondary targets instead of primary targets.

Mission 1: Friendly forces occasionally destroy an X-Wing instead of disabling\capturing. Seems to be random when the AI will screw up, but it has happened semi-frequently for me.

		     A 5-mission TIE/XvT/XWA Battle for the Infiltrator Wing
			      by FLT Neo (iw_neo@yahoo.com)
				------------------------------



 Mission 1: Recon Confederate systems

	We are attempting to discover who and what is moving through Rion space and so have
	some craft to a patrol a regularly frequented nav buoy. From here we can monitor what
	the confederate is up to and if come upon any Rebel craft, capture them for our use and
	purposes.

 Mission 2: Destroy New Republic defense systems

	This is a lighting raid against the system Jolar. The main problems are going to come
	from the starfighters which the corvettes launch so keep an eye on these, but as long as
	you don't stray too close to the corvettes you should be able to knock out the 
	uncompleted platforms without getting vaped by an enemy missile.

 Mission 3: Destroy Shipyard Construction

	Ok now for this mission you've got back-up in quite a big way! Enforcer is more than
	capable of covering your back, so let them deal with the snubbies while you hit the
	shipyard. You've got heavy rockets on this mission so use them to take out the shield
	generators on the shipyard and make your life that much easier. Oh and watch out for
	enemy bombers as combined with the enemy cap-ships, they will shed the Ka'tal in short
	order

 Mission 4: Destroy Confederate Task Force

	Here the main problem are the bombers that task force has as they are protected by fighters
	and can don the Fear, no problem. Also the arrival of reinforcements can prove bad as the
	advanced which they drop will give you a real headache.

 Mission 5: Destroy Rion shipyard

	This mission looks fairly simple apart from the two frigates which are miles off. These will
	turn up at some point so watch out for these guys and the fighters they drop. Also the Tie 
	Advanced's will prove a problem as some go for you, others the already damaged Warspite.
