A pretty good battle but had to dock a point because I was disappointed that as the only XWA battle in the compendium that utilized the Scimitar patch, that it only made a cameo in one mission and I didn't even get to fly it.

A pretty good battle with a variety of craft to fly. A little sad the TIE Praetor patch was used but you only got to fly it once or twice. Otherwise, a well constructed battle

I really liked this battle. Any time I get to fly non-standard craft, its a win. And the ATR can be a lot of fun!

Nothing particularly wrong with this mission, just wasn't very interesting.

Mission functionally worked, but a kind of strange mission plot.

Pretty good mission, lots going on, plenty to kill, and flying an X wing is always fun.

This was a really great battle. I loved the use of non-standard craft (at least for most of it). Missions all worked as intended, and the story was pretty solid.

Pretty good battle, good use of different craft, and lots of senseless convoy killing.

I really struggled with how to rate this battle, as the functionality definitely is a factor. Ultimately I rated it just on the battle itself, which was interesting and worked properly, once you figured out how to get it to do so. I don't really understand the plot point in M4 where you have to kill EH fighters, then defect to them or not. I don't think immediately following the slaughter of a bunch of their pilots that they'd take you. But maybe I just hold grudges.

Helpful hints: In order to get this battle to function properly, you MUST download the ZIP file and extract it. Inside that file are two further zipped folders, Rebel or EH. At the end of M4, you choose to either remain with the Rebels, or defect to the EH. Depending on your choice, you're supposed to install one of the two M5s to complete the battle. These zip folders are password protected (for some unknown reason) and the password is in a radio message in M4 that I completely missed. So to help you all, the password is RWROCKS. Once unzipped, copy and paste the selected file into the MISSIONS directory in your XWA game folder and relaunch. I did this after installing the EHM and using EHBL and it worked fine for me.

According to one of the many readmes in the battle file, in order to be eligible for a HS on M5, you must play the EH mission. Not sure if that's still correct, but figured I'd mention it in case someone else didn't read the file.

Many thanks to COL Locke Setzer for helping me figure out how to finish this battle and share this information with everyone else.

Everything worked, though there were 2 missions that logically are flawed where your capital ships hyper out as a mission objective, leaving you behind in a T/I with no hyperdrive or ship to dock with. Left me feeling unloved and unappreciated

This was bad. M2 was terrible, so many objectives that even just trying to read them and figure out what you're supposed to do was a challenge, not to mention really obscure arrival conditions. M4 and M5 were bad as well. I'm glad I'm done with it.

Good close out to the series (turns out there were 4, not just 3!) Overall good mix of objectives and everything worked properly.

This was my favorite of the trilogy. I think the battles with the Rebel fighters were well balanced and the last one wrapped up nicely.

Really didn't love this battle. Having to sit and wait for an ISD to dock with another ISD was unnecessary. And that last mission was just pointless.

Pretty good battle overall. No issues, everything worked as intended for me. Good story and I always love seeing the Challenge in game!

Would have been 4, but Mission 4 was excessive. Really? That many mines? And trying to cycle through targets to find the TRNs to disable? Killed the vibe of the battle for me

A very interesting battle. The theming was well done, if not directly lifted from an animated movie. Some of the missions were challenging and required specific steps to be completed in specific orders, which can be frustrating at times, but I do ultimately appreciate from a mission design perspective.

Really enjoyed seeing the GSP play such a big role in the this battle, as it's one of my favorite support ships. Was very excited about the EW patch, but sad when I realized I didn't get to actually fly it.

One the one hand, I appreciated the simplicity of M4 and M5, but M3 was not my favorite. Not bad overall

Not sure about "impossible" but certainly could be a challenge. Not thrilled with the repetition of that last mission, but far from the worst battle in the compendium.

Oh Beef. While I appreciate the effort that goes into putting 30 missions together, this really should have been broken up by the included chapters into multiple battles. Everything worked as intended, even if you did have to some times figure out the right order to do things in. Overall, pretty good if a little long.

Pretty good battle, but docked points for bug in M5 (see bug report) that made me fly it repeatedly unnecessarily, and for M6 where you fly a T/F. Really? C'mon.

I really dislike flying a stock TIE Fighter. Like, really. Otherwise the battle was well built and worked properly, which is worth something. And they did give me a mission where I got to boom boom some ships, so there's that.

Fun battle with a few unique ships flown. The Planetary Fighter was a new experience, and the Escort Shuttle could have been fun, but there wasn't much to do in that mission. Missed opportunity.
