In mission 4 (or was it 5) it is extremely annoying that when oyu fly a Firespray, a few minutes in the mission Razor Fighters hyper in practically next to your CORT you are supposed to protect and annhilati it ina matter of maybe 10 seconds... THis takes out all the funn of the entire battle...

PHEW ! Where were all the enemy fighters from ? But it's achieveable even on HARD, and that's a change for a time in XvT missions :)

Fast pacing and some missions can be quite "argh! I missed that ship!" but one of the finer missions around here, methinks :)

I most strongly disagree with CM Ender mBind here. This battle truly rivals TC 184 / mirror universe battles in terms of complexity and storyline. The storyline is good for a short story with its complexity and the gameplay is hazardous enough at times to drive a pilot to insanity. And I may calim I am not a beginner, yes ? It is FUN to fly and it is as FUN and exciting to read the briefings !! I motion for a sequel :)

wellll - whyt 3 battles ? And why this complicated numerating ? XWA seems better suited for this kind of translation fo a maneuver, yes ?

Uuuhm, sometime this battle can get quite frustrating but it is playable and complex - that is good.

A very enjoyable battle in itself with easy and difficult missions. The plotline is very interesting as it connects with the original battles from TIE in addition to opening up a whole new subset for the Emperor's Hammer - the Nami !! In my opinion this is excellent work !

MARVELLOUS! The plotline alone warrants a 5 but the missions with sometimes horrendous difficulty settings are an innovation in themselves. I flew up to mission 4 in a row until I relaized how long I've played...

I wish to disagree with my colleagues here. The battle was quick and refreshing. True , it depended a bit on plotline but in my opinion it was well seamed into each other - Plot and Battle :)

it IS difficult but this allows for a development of tactical skill :) I recommend that on Mission4 you wait until the appropriate SHU has docked and THEN disable it. then you should make it :) I use Tie CD

A fine plotline and not AS good but still very enjoyable battles and: NO BUGS ! :) However, I thought a CAB ought to have more missions :)

Yes this battle is repetetive and yes it IS long. But is an excellent opportunity to train for both new AND seasoned pilots. It trains patience, dogfighting and consistency. There ARE not may other battles able to do this

hehe, my first Free XWA - a bit akward to fly a VSD but nonetheless it was fun. I just couldn't come close to the enemy capships but I blew aB/W with my cannons ( I think... ) ;)

In the Mission 9 (!) X-Wings appear around 3:00 mins with apparently set to be "Top Ace" (Invincible)... To make matters worse, they have Missiles and blot you out of the sky no matter how you jiggle to break their target lock.. This is EXTREMELY frustrating - hence the bad rating - you simply lose the motivation to fly it with you being outclassed that badly

My first HighscoreMission so naturally anything I say about this is "tainted" by this. I love this mission, because I never expected it to go sooo well.
