| | We did this mission for the Sin Squadron Sin On Patrol competition and it was quite fun. Lots of opportunities to blow things away and get extra points, and a huge variability in easy and hard modes that, you know, actually make them easy and hard. Those Supa Bombers and Razor Fighters can really take a beating, so the trick is to use torpedoes on them as they do not even bother to engage you. I’m not the most skilled pilot in the world so I found the hard mode challenging but was still able to beat it. I would have gotten a better score, I think, as I was about 10 minutes deep into it until one of my idiot wingmen blew me up. At the same time the battle feels very balanced between you and the enemy, as you’re only in a TIE Advanced against some pretty respectable fighters. Overall, I really liked it and would play it again. | | |

| | Outstanding!! One of the best escort missions I've ever flown and according to my Combat Record I've flown *MANY*. High Admiral Dempsey gave us the perfect bug free escort mission for XWA: no silly hyperjumps from one section to another just to make it cool, no long waits for actual events to happen, superb attack/raid pattern for those silly ubiquitous pirates, no crazy superfighters fest... It features tight difficulty on Hard yet a little bit on the easier side if you pick Decoy and spice it with some adv. torpedo runs on those Supa Fighters formations which won't even strike back. I just couldn't ask for more in this kind of mission except maybe some more originality. Nevertheless this free mission is so good that I'm gonna make an exception here and give it a 5 instead my classic 4 for usual classicism. | | |
