ACT 2, MISSION 4

Fighter squadron: N/A

Description: Escort the fleet as it attempts to attack the Lucifer.


Background

The Lucifer has found its way to the Knossos portal leading to Verbek. The Empire has assigned a strike fleet to attack the Lucifer from behind.

Walkthrough

This is a blockade mission, with six ships to escort: the carrier Akrotiri, the Mochlos-class corvettes Kophinas and Galatas, the Malia-class Pseira, and the Heraklion-class cruisers Gournia and Petsofas.

Your primary responsibility is to intercept bombers. However, when intercepting the bombs, do so with either long-range guns or your missiles: their shockwaves can kill you.

Wave 1:

The cruisers Beherith, Rusalka and Kabandha will come in, with a six-ship formation each of Shaitans (Asura) and Scorpions (Krishna).

Wave 2:

The corvettes Mathim and Agares with the cruiser Sitri are escorted by Arjuna, Bheema, Indra, Lakshmi, and Rama wings. Prioritize any Seraphim or Nephilim bombers first.

Wave 3:

The Lucifer will arrive, escorted by Gayatri and Durga wings. Destroy the strikecraft. After that, stay with the fleet.

The fleet's attacks seem ineffective against the Lucifer. When it turns around, Shakti, Kali and Hanuman wings will move to attack.

The Fleetmaster tries to call Command, however, all efforts sound futile and the Lucifer turns to attack position. When the Fleetmaster calls for the retreat order, follow them out.
