ACT 2 MISSION 5

Fighter squadron:
Description:


Background

In order to protect Vasuda Prime, the GTD Galatea will be moving from Antares to Beta Aquilae.
Alpha and Beta will provide support.
The sentry guns surrounding the jump node were severely damaged in the recent Hammer of Light attack. Alpha wing will inspect sentry guns to determine if they are salvageable. Beta wing will provide cover.
The Galatea will jump into Antares, reset its coordinates, then jump to Beta Aquilae. Lately, the Hammer of Light has been attacking all ships passing through the jump node. It is your responsibility to destroy all enemy ships that you encounter.
After the Galatea jumps to Beta Aquilae, you will be contacted by the Detiula Installation in the Antares system. There you will receive your briefing and move on to your next mission. Intelligence has specifically requested you and your wing for these missions. Good luck, pilot.


Walkthrough

Scan sentry gun. Kill sentry guns. Kill all fighters. Continue to kill all fighters when the HOL attack wing jumps in. Once the Mauler jumps in, order your wingmen to disable it. Conserve your weapons. Don't lose wingmen. Your wingmen's hull, your hull, and your secondary weapon stock will transfer to the next mission. Uncool.

Notes

Again, for extremely cheap players without honor, this is one of the few missions in the campaign that allows cheating. In this context "cheating" does not mean "send your wingmen away so that you will get all kills". It means "cheat code". If you want to use Shivan Super Lasers in this and the next mission, go right ahead.
