	By the time you've destroyed the cargo, unless you are a speed demon, the ''Taranis'' should have jumped in. Order your wingmen to depart if they aren't dead already. You now have a choice to make, you can either jump out now, or choose to destroy the Shivan fighters and bombers. Scorpion wing has a 45 to 60 second delay between waves, which is enough for you to finish off the cargo if you need more time. Once the ''Ramses'' is at 4% hull or around there, proceed to kill it yourself. Your resume looks better with an Aten kill on it.

	Note that the HoL crew of the ''Ramses'' apparently "embraces their fate" with the Shivans; the ''Taranis'' is set at ship-protect and the Aten will not fire at it. If you do manage to maul the ''Taranis'', however, the ''Ramses'' will [[self-destruct]] anyway. If the ''Taranis'' is disarmed, has less than 30 points left on her engine system or gets her hull below 20% integrity, the ''Ramses'' will auto-destruct. Furthermore, there is an empty [[when]]/[[is-destroyed-delay]]/Taranis event sitting around in the events list, suggesting that there was to be events ~~occuring~~ in the mission triggered by the ''Taranis's'' destruction.

	This mission is incredibly frustrating on higher difficulty levels. Even the freighters and ML-16 fighters can easily vaporize your interceptors. Swap out for Apollos, and don't bother with ~~disruptors~~. Keep your distance from the Ramses to about 3km, and just pick off what charges at you until the Taranis has warped out. After, kill whatever fighters are left ''first'', then go for the cargo.		This mission is incredibly frustrating on higher difficulty levels.

	Once you arrive, order your wingmen to ignore the ''Ramses''. Avoid the HoL fighters and pass around their flank to destroy one of the "Turtle" wing Satis freighters for a bonus objective. Although the four Satises will put up a lot of flak if attacked while together, one of the freighters breaks from formation and is an easy target. You get nothing special for destroying all four, and your chances of disabling are slim, so bug out and start attacking the cargo~~. On higher difficulties, you should avoid the HoL fighters until the Shivans arrive to distract them~~.		Once you arrive, order your wingmen to ignore the ''Ramses''.

	The briefing and the mission objectives are bogus. The Ramses ''must'' be destroyed in the mission. If you manage to eliminate all hostiles and disable the Taranis -- and the Ramses has a reasonable hull strength left -- you're up the creek. The mission will not end before the Ramses is destroyed. In the preceeding scenario, you'd be forced to destroy the Ramses yourself. In such a case you must just hope that you're not declared traitor before the Ramses goes down.
