[B5M7] Battle 5 - Mission 7: Destroy Hurrim Base
Posted: Sun Sep 13, 2020 6:34 pm
Hi all,
I am just writing to report problem with Battle 5 mission 7
There is a number of issue with this mission:
1. FRG Jericho will not depart even if ATR Storm Unit 1 and 2 complete their missions. It simply does not jump to Order: Hyper to Region #1 Repro rate 8/10
2. Drednaught Longshot has orders to attack: any Team but Rebel only if 20? 2. Which means it tends to attack PLT/1 Hurrim Base - which needs to be boarded first.
3. Same issue with X-Wing Red 1 and X-Wing Blue 1
4. ISD Corrupter comes out too close to PLT/1 Hurrim Base and even though it has orders to attack rebels it tends to 'sprey over' its fire onto PLT/1. Which leads to its pre-mateure destruction and mission failure.
I toyed with editor and made the following changes to mission myself, which I suggest:
1. On FRG Jericho: Replaced Order 2 with Hyper to Region #1. Then I modified Its jump to order 2 condition to (100% of PLT Hurrim base must be boarded) AND (100% of SHU Lendros must be boarded). Now the order to retreat works every time. Also added prevent: ATR Storm Unit 1 and 2 must be destroyed.
2. Changed orders of Blue smuggler allies so they attack only Imps now.
3. Changed orders of X-Wing flight groups so they do not attack Hurrim Base
Controversial changes that p[revent accidental kill of objective but add challenge
4. Changed spawning point of ISD Corrputer - to be farther away, so its fire cannot initially reach PLT5 in first 2-3 minutes
5, Added more Tie bombers and tie interceptors for challenge4 and to counter-balance Corrupter spawning farther away.
6. Changed Smuggler blue goup Arrival condition - they arrive 25 seconds after first Tie bomber appears on the battlefield (previously it was soon after ISD arrived, which does not allow for the tension).
7. Changed Order of TIE flight-groups to attack Blue Smuggle craft as well. Previously they ignored Blue Smuggler so they were too easy targets for Blue AI.
Here's file for feedback:
