Battle Reviews

I absolutely love the addition of the wav pack and it makes the mission so much easier to follow for me. Fun and simple mission.


I had difficulty keeping the installation alive. I had to drop it all the way down the Easy to keep it from being destroyed while my slow Tie Fighter tried to catch up with the boggies. I was impressed to see that there were changes in the difficulties--most notably Easy had shields (not that I ever needed them). Not a bad mission, but not one that I'll be returning to any time soon.


Great fun mission.
Well built and wav pack is great. Well worth a fly.


Flown as part of TIE Golf so trying not to do too much in it, but I enjoyed what was there. The custom audio was nice.


A very enjoyable new mission! Very fun to fly and good for a re-try as well or for chasing some more points in the future on a higher setting. Very recommended!


A bit of a throwback/tribute to free missions of olde...

Please use the WAV pack!

I forgot to mention that the bug I reported earlier only really becomes significant in combination with the WAV pack. Excuses the addendum.

The conversation option "Debrief me on the mission, sir." in the conversation with the FLIGHT OFFICER after successfully completing the mission plays the "We capture a freighter full of rebels..." monologue from the first mission of the first battle of the original game.

Developed using YOGEME.

Thanks to Michael Gaisser's LFDReader library (https://github.com/MikeG621/LfdReader), without which I probably would not have bothered with the audio.

All voice acting performed (poorly) by me.
