First things first....why I´m writing in german you may ask, because I can!

-DEU-
Naja was soll ich sagen?

Fangen nicht alle großen Geschichten so an? Nein? Auch egal. Ja die Mission ist ewig alt aber ich denke das auch damals schon mehr drin gewesen waere. Man eiert halt ewig im Raum neben dem leichten Calamari Kreuzer herum und zerpflueckt die TIE-Advanced nachdem man den Verräter aus dem Cockpit seines TIE-Defender gebombt hat und das war´s im Großen und Ganzen. Ach man sollte ja noch den Kreuzer inspizieren...okay das wars aber auch....glaub ich. Den CRL in seine Bestandteile zu zerlegen habe ich mir aufgrund der mangelnden schweren Raketen und vermehrten Harndrang dann doch erspart. Ich glaube 15 Minuten mit der Mission reichen. Wenigstens ist sie auf dem mittleren Schwierigkeitsgrad angenehm zu spielen. Eigentlich mehr eine 1.5 als eine 2, aber ich habe heute einen guten Tag.

Well, what can I say?

Don't all great stories start like this? No? It doesn't matter. Yes, the mission is ages old, but I think there could have been more to it even back then. You just spend ages idling around in space next to the Calamari light cruiser, tearing apart the TIE Advanced after bombing the traitor out of the cockpit of his TIE Defender, and that's pretty much it. Oh, you're supposed to inspect the cruiser... okay, but that's about it... I think. I skipped dismantling the CRL due to the lack of heavy missiles and the increased urge to urinate. I think 15 minutes with the mission is enough. At least it's enjoyable to play on medium difficulty. Actually, more of a 1.5 than a 2, but I'm having a good day today.

Played on easy with cheats. Super simple combat, fast but basic.

Kill something and inspect something. Not much too it.

Use your Beam weapon, it helped - that and maxing out your engines for the capital inspection :)

It looks like there's a practical joke played on us - the pilots who choose to fly this. Just play it for completion and move on. There's very little effort put in this from the creator. It sounds like he had an idea / premise of what to do, but didn't follow up with it. It's a shame, because we need to be having some more interesting and engaging battles.

In my opinion, despite a 2014 rewrite I understand, the mission is still far too easy. All you need to do is disable or destroy a TIE/D and inspect a rebel cruiser. Good for RtF spam or FCHG since it’s so quick.

As Yoda mentioned, the current incarnation of this mission has stepped up the difficulty a little bit. Still, this is a mission that's pretty devoid of any plot or substance. 1 point since it's playable and an easy completion, but otherwise not much of value here.

I wanted to clarify that the mission was substantially changed in 2014 and the previous reviews don't really apply any more. It's still low on plot but there is now some challenge.

A very bad mission. The only way you can get any fun and challenge out of it is if you try to get the best score possible and not just complete the mission.

Being a new pilot, I thought it was an ok mission. It reinforces the use of beams to disable the T/D. Good for raw recruits, in any case.

Your mission: bravely pilot your TIE Defender to disable an enemy TIE Defender. Then inspect a Rebel CRL (which, by the way, doesn't shoot at you when you fly near it). For bonus points, destroy the TIE Fighters in the area (which don't shoot back). And if you're really daring, you can even take out the two Missile Boats (which don't actually have any missiles) that show up when you destroy all the other starfighters.

Very easy.What are waiting the ennemy TIE Fighters to strike back when you attack them?

Extemely easy! Escorts don't fight back, no capture team to protect! Just disable one enemy T/D and slaughter some regular, unshielded T/Fs with no attack orders in your TIE Defender! Worthy of this big, fat ZERO.
