ACT 2, MISSION 6

Fighter squadron: 64th Raptors Description: You are sent to guard the Knossos


Background

Bosch sends the small remnant of his fleet to the Knossos portal, guarded by the GTCv Monitor.

Walkthrough

Nubble's recommendations: GTF Pegasus, 2 Prometheus S, Trebuchet, Tornado

This is the last mission against the NTF. I personally prefer the GTF Pegasus in this mission (and I prefer it over any fighters when available), but in my experience, not many people like it because of its low firepower and weak armoring. You can take something else if you prefer it. The GTF Myrmidon is also a useful tool here (and in general, where you are not threatened by fighters much). You enter the battle area, and you can see a GTCv Deimos-class corvette (GTCv Monitor) in front of you. The Knossos subspace portal is also located in the background.


The Monitor falls under attack by NTF fighters and bombers. Prioritize the bombers, the fighters escorting the bombers are practically harmless. A hostile cruiser enters the area. It attacks the Monitor, but the Deimos can handle it without much trouble. I suggest you not approach on the hostile cruiser, it is very dangerous and it doesn't mean much trouble for the Monitor. You can accomplish your mission by defending the Monitor from the first wave of fighters.


After this, the GTVA Colossus jumps in and from here, you don't have to do much. If you have the mood to, you can engage the incoming GTB Medusa bombers to get kills. The NTF Iceni jumps in a bit after the arrival of the Colossus, you get orders to destroy it. But the NTF was too clever: They sabotaged the fire control of the Colossus and the Iceni could escape. After the Iceni jumps out, you are ordered to depart.

Tips

  • Notice you can order the GTC Fortune around. This is useful because otherwise the Fenris won't fire on NTF ships. Order it to attack enemy warships and things will move slightly faster.
