This was an entertaining battle to complete. The framing and narrative were a great story, and the mix of goals and mission types was a good break from more standard battles.

Really fun story. Definitely flying at a handicap in some missions which adds to the challenge.

Way easier than the original, only because your ship repairs itself if you get disabled by ions. I remember flying the original and it was hell making that LONG trek to the CRV just to avoid a million ships shooting ion lasers at you
great port, love to see more!

PAR!
That PAR is especially appropriate for this battle as it is a remaster of Frodo's excellent XWA-TC 52. I love the story of this battle, I think the premise is a bit far out there but fun. I am proud of the work I did to make the SSSD Sovereign work in TFTC-R and all the excellent voice work every one did for this battle. M3 can be tricky but stick to it and camp that hanger exit like your life depends on it...because it does. Worst comes to worst and should be able to get past it with cheats.

M1: Debriefing: the voice says "Article 412, treason..." where the text says "...being a traitor..." Also volume balance for Xavier

Introduction
-------------
Some of my favorite stories in the EH database were written and made by Frodo. He
graciously has given me permission to remaster his XWA battles into TFTC and I have
chosen to remaster XWA-TC 52: Rendez-Vous With Peril.
This battle tells the story of a hapless Gamma Squadron pilot who through a bad luck
finds himself with just one chance to redeem himself, or be cast out of the Emperor's
Hammer all together.
