	Note that the enemy wings are triggered to leave after a given time. The last enemy wing to automatically leave the theatre of operations -- regardless if engaged or not -- is wing Aries, triggered to leave after 600 seconds, or 10 minutes. It is highly doubtful that the Orff will be destroyed in that time, rather, the Orff will in that time dispose of the enemy threat. On somewhat easier difficulty settings, the game can thus play the entire mission all by its lonesome, without any player interference whatsoever.

	If you're feeling cheap, simply point your ship in any direction, engage your ship's thrusters and speed off into the void.

	Please note that the same mission in the Descent: FreeSpace demo is much more elaborate. The demo mission has additional wings, ace enemy pilots and more objectives, adding almost three times as many enemies as the retail version.

	You'd almost have to try to fail this mission to actually fail it. It is arguably more difficult to ''fail'' this mission, than it is to ''destroy'' the Lucifer. At first all is quiet. Then suddenly two damaged Anubis fighters (Virgo wing) jump in. After you destroy those, two more damaged Anubis fighters (Cancer wing) will attack the Orff. Next will be three more damaged Anubis fighters (Aries wing). Three more damaged Anubis fighters (Leo wing). Lastly, three damaged Anubis fighters (Pisces wing) will challenge you. Delta wing will then relieve you of your post.		You'd almost have to try to fail this mission to actually fail it.

	The difficulty of this mission, as with [[Small Deadly Space]] was probably severely decreased as the missions in the retail version were an introduction to the game, while the demo version was more of a "representation" of the game, with a larger variety of ships and a higher difficulty level. At any rate, this is just ridiculously easy, much easier than [[Surrender, Belisarius!]] from FreeSpace 2. If you stay with the Orff after being relieved in the demo version, though, it becomes a lot more hectic.
