ACT 3 MISSION 8
Fighter squadron:
Description:
Background
- In a few minutes we will be entering the Delta Serpentis sector. We will then begin the most important engagement in our history. We will fight for the very survival of Earth.
- Our plan is to rapidly close the distance with the Lucifer so that the Bastion is able to enter subspace just behind her. Once in subspace, we will attack and destroy the Lucifer.
- Your task will be to provide cover for the Bastion so that it can quickly converge on the Lucifer.
- That Destroyer must be stopped at all costs. Failure is absolutely not an option here, pilots.
Walkthrough
First, a word about the directive. This directive is correct. It will not appear when you play most of the time unless you are slower than a tortoise with three legs and a stomach cramp. You must be within 2000 units of the node and wait for Delta wing to go to the node and depart before the directive will appear. This will occur with about three minutes left. Okay. Get ready for a lot of action. Attack the six Basilisks (Deva and Arjuna) in front of the Bastion first, then head toward the node. Command will order you to go to the node quickly. Expect resistance, a lot of resistance. 6 Manticores (Krishna and Rama) will be the first to challenge you. Then 4 Basilisks (Bheema) will attack. 3 Hammer of Light Thoths (Virgo) will be next in the gauntlet. 3 more Basilisks (Asura) will keep you on your toes. 4 Scorpions (Indra) will next be stepping in your way. By 3:55 Epsilon wing will be ready. 4 more Thoths (Aries) will challenge you. Durga wing with 4 Basilisks will be your next foe. Genma wing will be a mirror image of Durga. The Prophecy (Typhon) is exactly what you need at this point. You'll never destroy it so keep going. Lastly (finally), 3 waves of 3 Dragons (oh, great) will be your last enemy. Now that was a lot of fighting.
Notes
If you'd like to cheat, this is a mission where you can feel free to do so. Since this is a "Red Alert" mission, there will be no cheat checking at the end. All cheats are thus allowed. Go ahead, try those Shivan Super Lasers, no? You can even order your wingmen to depart in the beginning, leaving you with most of the kills.
Do not race towards the node as fast as possible and immediately jump out! If you do, the bomber wings will not be deployed and Good Luck will be virtually impossible to win. Wait for all wings to be in the field of engagement before entering the node.
