Previous Mission Campaign Walkthrough

Background

Two classified transports are making their way to Gamma Draconis, Alpha wing is ordered to protect them.

Walkthrough

Load up on a GTF Hercules Mark II with Subach and Maxim, with missiles of your choice, as they don't really matter.

Immediately upon entering, call in Beta wing, and order them to protect one of the transports, and Alpha to protect the other. After that afterburn forward and fire Maxim rounds into the SC Armaros, it will go down quickly. Then concentrate your firepower on the three beam cannons of the SCv Balam, and, if you can, its flak and blob turrets. This will allow the Adamant to take it down, and give you the kill, don't fall too far behind the transports, however.

If the transports begin taking damage, or if they get too far away (apx. 2,500 meters) forget about the Adamant and close your distance, in general your wingmen can protect the transports with suprising competence. Use the Maxim as a anti-bomb cannon, it can take out ordinance at 3,500 meters, and ships with damaged shields as well. When the Argos jump and the Adamant (or the GVD Psamtik if the Adamant is destroyed) destroys the Balam, you'll get a friendly message essentialy telling you to buy the full version, and then you can jump out.
