Alex can we get a "BE VERY CAREFUL"-order - to use when we know we are up against the wall?
The way your fleet just suicide in this mission makes it kinda hard. :)
Anyway, its just a thought. :)

Haha, agreed.
At the very least I think your units should stick with you until you give them orders or you should be able to have formations.
Formations would be good so you could have light units on the outside to protect to bigger ships and to deal with incoming torpedoes and such.

They do shoot down missiles and stuff if they are escorting you, right?They do, if they have 'PD' weaponry, and they are flying near a missile or torpedo. They don't, if they have ran off to engage with something else. Not sure how the escort duty proritises positioning etc. but I suspect, especially for fighter escorts, there is a lot that could and will be done AI wise.
Hey, I don't know if anyone's noticed yet, but it the new update (0.53a) this mission has become a lot harder. With the AI improvements and the new ship systems (the omen is much more deadly with the emp emitter and the astral is very hard to touch with its much improved point defense system).
I haven't been able to crack it, and all the old strategies don't quite work like they used too (try destroying the Astral by piloting your piloting your dominator right up to it... not so easy huh). Just wondering if anyone has figured out how to beat the mission yet. Thanks.
Well guys this is the best i could do.Well, it's a hell of a lot better than I did. My Enforcer was the only survivor in my case.
I call shenanigans.Oh, oh. I see. Tricky Thaago, I see that similar Dominator.SpoilerThe Hound got mirrored, I assume deliberately.[close]
No lol there are no secrets, he just edited my image.
He didn't. You lost a broadsword. he didn't, however, could someone inform me on what exactly the shenanigan was? :D

Haha yeah I'm just messing with you guys. I guess what I should have done was to play the mission myself to get a new backgroundYeah, that would have fooled us even worse. :P
Can you spot all the differences? :DHound is on the other side, the destroyed Wasp on the right hand side under the hound is missing, and a Wasp is captured instead of the Omen. Oh, and of course the text is changed.
I was having a few goes at this last night - thought I would ease myself in with a custom fit-out on the Dominator.
I've got three words to explain how I got on:
Ha, ha and ha :D
That damn Omen is an absolute pest.
Any good scores? :)
Any good scores? :)
I didn't even come close to winning. I was starting to feel sorry for my poor, eternally blunted Dominator :'(
That damn Omen is an absolute pest.Yeah, that Omen is horrible. The only time I've killed it was because it spent too much time in range of my needlers. Every other time it either ran away or I died.
So has anyone managed it with default load outs in 0.53a?
Even a 1% victory is worth mentioning! ;D
