Somehow this is worse than the original which is something onto itself. It still contains the same bugs as the original, and new ones that the first one did not. Featuring such curious decisions such as having your bombers start at 0% shields while launching under the guns of 2 nebulon B frigates, being targeted by an entire squadron of ties at the very beginning of the mission and only minor changes between xvt and bop (swapping the factories for shipyards and adding b-wings in one mission), it is one to forget.

Worst battle in the IW section of BoP. The storyline and briefings aren't bad, so the battle look promising follow up of the initial Rion's Shadow saga. But as soon as you start, the first mission will redefine a new threshold for pointless waiting. The other missions are messy and inconsistent. In a few words, this battle was plain boring and meaningless. Play elsewhere. You have been warned.

Long waits, missions that pit a single flight against enemy fleets.
Yeah, this is poor quality.

Probably the most boring battle I ever flew. Especially the first mission made me think of new definitions to the word 'boring'. The last missions aren't that fun either. Going up against capital ships and installations time after time with just lasers isn't quite my idea of fun. I don't have any comments on the technical part of the battle however, that's why I still gave it a 2.

Battle is good but first mission sucks. It's really long and boring. You have to wait almost 10 minutes for some X/Ws. They suck. And you must wait again for your ETRs to dock.

Mission 1: Y-Wing Razor 3 collides with freighter chance and is destroyed due to having conflicting flight paths. Multiple sentences missing punctuation.
Mission 2: No mission complete message. Messages incorrectly to state to go home after Corvettes are destroyed, not golan platforms.
Mission 3: Rejuvenator spelled incorrectly. Valkyrie spelled incorrectly. No mission complete message.
Mission 4: Once Primary mission objectives are completed, T/A Elite 1 immediately aborts mission while the rest do not. Rejuvenator spelled incorrectly. No mission complete message. Serpent's smile, Challenger & Griffin have arrival/departure trigger errors.
Mission 5: ISD Serpent’s Smile collides with CRS Warspite 25:40 into the mission and destroys the Warspite and itself, depending on its shields/hull. All starships designated as secondary targets instead of primary targets. Y-Wing shields do not charge on hard, they go to 14% and then stay there, even if they lose hull the shields do not regenerate. Warspite spelled incorrectly. No mission complete message.

Mission 1: Razor flight destroys Rebel X-wings instead of disabling them for capture as per primary objectives.

IW Battle 25 - Eliminate Friendship Rion's Shadow Campaign Tour of Duty #3 - XvT version 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.
