Background

Walkthrough

If you have chosen to fly a bomber, avoid dog-fighting. If you sit in the center hole of the Arcadia station, you can still fire off harbingers at the Jotunheim, and nobody will attack you. When the Jotunheim is about to give up the ghost, the Hades jumps in. Just ignore her until you've taken out the Jotunheim. If you have chosen to fly a fighter, simply focus on hostile fighters and cover your dozen or so wingmen as they pummel the Hades. The Hades will spit out seemingly endless waves of Lokis, but there is a sweet spot where they won't attack you. Position yourself in the elbow of one of the engine supports of the Hades and let her have it. You may want to rubber-band your trigger, time-compress the game and come back later after a cup of tea/pack of cigarettes, because it takes forever to kill the Hades with your primaries. She will go down, tho.

Notes

For an official add-on, this is a serious flaw in design. It's roughly the equivalent of taking out an aircraft carrier with an M-16. Additionally, it's not that hard to protect the GTD Orff. In fact, I've only lost her a couple of times. Try to save her, it's much more challenging than reducing the Hades to scrap metal. After all, we like the Orff.
