Battle Reviews

No nonsense, in and out, fend off a pirate raid on an outpost which includes a couple of capital ships that can be easily dispatched with heavy rockets.

Definitely can see what the mission maker was aiming for and a lot of potential if the objectives were a little more spread out, otherwise you'll have this wrapped up in 5 minutes.


Average mission - select heavy rockets for an easier win, will be flying again at some point to test this on higher difficulty settings, as I think it has potential.


I like what the mission designer was doing here, it makes a lot of sense even if it was a bit simple when put into practise. Flying with the intended load out would be recommended if you want to make a battle out of it, but mixing it up does allow you to finish quicker.


Just another routine patrol mission, we don't expect any resistance like 90% of missions tell you, so just kick back and put on so-wha, what?? Capital ships!? I thought this was just another routine patrol! Fool me 50 times, shame on me. For real though, just wait for the cap ships to show up, it takes maybe 20 seconds. You have some wing men, you can easily take them down. On easy.


I played on Easy. If played optimally, this is a fairly quick level. That said, it seemed like there might be some interesting secondary goals. I also really liked that this mission offers Reinforcements, which is a rare thing in XvT.


I don't understand why the mission wasn't set up to use rockets in the first place. This is obviously one of the missions where you need rockets to finish off two capital ships which can be done extremely quickly with rockets. I like strike missions, but this one was very straight forwards and fast to complete.


I am beginning to see a pattern. Mission creators should know how to make use of the features of customization and the paths a player may choose to take. In other words, TEST IT first. Anyhow, it gets a 2.


Fast and furious. Dogfight with a T/A against some pirates and sink a DREAD and a STRKC. The mission is enjoyable and delivers some minutes of good fun while chasing pirates. Worth a try.


Just another classic Imperial vs Pirate battle. I would honestly like to see the mission re-made where you have to fly it with more traditional Tie craft. Not sure why T/A would be used to defend a backwater outpost...no bugs to report.


Can’t think of any problems with this mission. Perfect if you’re in the mood for beating up on rebel ships while the capital ships duke it out in the background.
