ACT 1 MISSION 2
Fighter squadron:
Description:
Background
There have been a number of recent attacks by the Vasudans in the Betelgeuse system. They have been making strikes on Terran convoys en route to the Betelgeuse-Antares jump point. The Vasudan attacks have been stages from a nearby asteroid field.
Terran intelligence is certain that there are four small attack wings responsible for the attacks on our convoys. There have also been reports of a Vasudan ace piloting one of the Seth class fighters in the area.
You are to sweep the asteroid field and take out the four Vasudan attack wings. Be aware that the asteroids will be causing interference with your sensors. You won't be able to target the Vasudans until they are near, but they won't see you either.
If you encounter the Vasudan ace, you may use your discretion whether or not to engage him. Keep in mind that your primary objective is to take out the four attack wings. Check your loadouts and commit when ready.
Walkthrough
If you fly straight at the beginning of the mission, you will see a formation of red dots flashing on your radar. The group that is the farthest to the left is Pisces wing. The top-most is Cancer, the top- right one is Virgo, and the bottom-right one is Aries wing. Keep one group of red dots in the center of your radar and fly straight. You will eventually encounter a wing of 3 Anubis fighters. Destroy them and fly toward another wing. Repeat this process again. After you destroy the third wing of fighters, the Vasudan Ace 1 will jump in. He flies a Seth class fighter. He will shoot missiles at you when you encounter him, so make sharp turns or just keep flying in circles until you have dodged the missiles. Once you have neutralized the attack wings and the Ace, jump out.
