ACT 3 - MISSION 34
Fighter squadron: 74th Templars
Description: Destroy a convoy supplying Falon's rebels.
Location: Kuiper Belt, Sol
Background
The squad's next mission is to interdict a large supply convoy supplying Falon's rebels.
Walkthrough
This is a classic convoy assault mission, but you're being asked to attack a huge convoy. Your job is to destroy at least 50% of the convoy supply ships. You can get a secondary objective for destroying the escort cruisers and 75% of the convoy. The mission was not designed for you to destroy every ship - it's enough to get most of the convoy. Take a heavy assault fighter with anti-cruiser primaries like the Aquinas or Typhoon. The Alves is ideal for this.
You'll start the mission next to the EASC Specter, which will be your mission control. After a little dialogue, the first convoy warps in with fighter escort. Clear the fighters quickly, then move to the freighters. After the first convoy has departed or been destroyed, you'll have time to rearm. A second convoy warps in shortly afterward with a couple of flak cruisers escorting it. Focus on the freighters; the cruisers are secondary, and the cruisers have a LOT of flak guns.
Once the second convoy is dealt with, the EACa Stormbreaker jumps in, escorting the third convoy, and you're ordered to withdraw to the Specter. There's no way your squad can take on a convoy with a destroyer. Wait just a little bit - a friendly corvette, the EACv Eshnunna, will warp in to the middle of the convoy, forcing the convoy to scatter. Command will deploy Echo and Foxtrot wings to assist you. They'll deploy Zeta wing, flying GTB Jotun superbombers, guarded by Golf and Hotel wings, to attack the carrier. Focus on the freighters while Zeta makes short work of the Stormbreaker.
Once the third convoy has been destroyed or has departed, return to base.
Notes
- The Stormbreaker's new commander, Rear Admiral Karras, is the political officer from Excommunication.
- This is the first appearance of the Jotun superbomber, which was designed to take down juggernauts.
