Description:

Background

Reconnaissance has observed a small Shivan cruiser group, designated Hellfire, en route to the Delta Serpentis jump node. If Hellfire reaches its destination, it will be reunited with the primary Shivan fleet.

Hellfire consists of four cruisers, both Cain and Lilith class, with a fighter escort of ten to fifteen ships.

Your squad will intercept and destroy as much of the Shivan force as possible. Beta and Delta will engage the cruisers. Alpha and Gamma will defend the bomber wings and neutralize the fighter threat.

Walkthrough

After listening to the briefing, get to the loadout page. There are actualy two ways to customize your loadout:

1. Start loading bombers for you and your wingmates, and bombs of course. Use Prometheus and Avengers, since this are the most powerful lasers for bombers. Also carry some missiles, but powerful missiles such as hornets.
2. All the the same as number one, except you take distrubtors. Do same for wingamtes
3. Take a fighter with a good loadout of secondaries.

When you begin, target Hellfire 1 and order one wing to start disabling it. Do the same for the other Hellfire, however, you don't join your wing to destroy one Hellfire. Target a Hellfire which is a Cain. It should be easy, since hornets and tsunami's are not friendly to Cain. However, if you take the distrubtors with you, target the engines instead. However, use bombs in combination.

Or if you chose a fighter, instead of you bravely taking down the cruisers, why don't be eer so kind to protect your wingman! I am sure Command would apprecate it...

Once your wingman have taken down all cruisers, tell them to engage enemies. And when there only junk left in that place, return to place. Easy as it sounds!

Notes

Only Hellfire 1 is Lilith class, the other cruisers are Cain class. Please do not confuse these vessels with the Demon class destroyer from the official FS1 multiplayer mission Unstoppable, which is also called Hellfire.
