MISSION 14

Fighter squadron: 56 Squadron

Description: The Shivans have entered the Knossos and are bearing down on the Temeraire and its battlegroup.

---

Background

The Shivans had appeared reluctant to pursue the Temeraire, perhaps due to the presence of the unknown entities in this system. But this reluctance has passed, and two Shivan destroyers are now closing on the Temeraire.

Walkthrough

Use your Harpoons to destroy the forward beams on the Ravana. You may also wish to disable the rear stinger beams.

Once those beams are down, the only real threat should be Shivan bomb shockwaves. Be extremely careful when destroying Shivan warheads.

The massive firepower of the Temeraire battle group should make quick work of the Shivan destroyers. Of course, the Shivans will not relent (they never do)...

But you can relax when the next 3 Shivan Destroyers arrive. The Vishnan will jump in and solve this problem. Feel free to watch the fireworks.

A roughly good small BoE mission, and able to constantly keep the player busy dogfighting with fighters and shooting down bombers at the same time. Didn't include any Shivan Cruisers to combat the Terran ones, but in a way does represent the single-mindedness and detrimination of the Shivans.
