Battle Reviews

Tough mission but neat mechanics and objectives. I had a good time, but it was challenging.


Played on easy
-You have to do all the work as the wingmen are useless
-The TRN keeps getting destroyed by the CNTRS resulting in several wasted attempts
-Your in an unshielded TIE, but yeah lets do everything and take out multiple craft that can destroy u in one-two shots
-The freighter craft have crappy waypoints meaning you can never get a chance away from them in the docking procedure, even helping with the shields means nothing as it gets destroyed when it attempts to dock
-Useless hints of no value

Eventually after 6 attempts i gave up and put on cheats.
Clearly easy doesnt mean easy in this mission


Played on easy. An okay mission with a serviceable plot, but pretty basic so it gets held back.


Deceptively simple. Inspect and capture - except the Container Transports have a blood feud with you and TRN Omega :)

Flown for Straight Down the Middle.


I love a good TIE Fighter mission and this is a good one. The homicidal container transports might be a touch too much, but otherwise it's well balanced and challenging without being overbearing.

Definitely recommend helping Omega knock down the freighter's shields though - faster that capture starts, the better off you'll be.


Make sure you play this in TIE98, and NOT the collector's CDROM, as the Container Transports are much deadlier in the older version.

Once I switched to TIE98, I no longer had to take 20 tries to inspect the Container Transports and it was possible to destroy them. Then they wouldn't shoot down transport Omega and the mission is much more enjoyable.


An enjoyable mission - really very hard in an unshielded TIE though!


A very good and deceptively challenging mission.
