We head back to before the events of A New Hope to a space battle. Buckle up. This one's a doozy.
Personal Notes:
-The Empire sends air attacks against you almost immediately. Have your workers to get an Anti-air turret up so you still have some defense in case your starting squadron's taken out.
-Focus on defense and getting to Tech Level 4 as soon as possible. Despite the enemy having a lead on you, you can outtech them.
-Once in Tech Level 4, focus on getting an air force up. Also be sure to research all Airbase techs (Armored Plating, Shield Modifications and Astromech Repairs are high priority.
-It's also a good idea to get a ground force to air drop over made of Repeater Troopers and Cannons .
-Remember, prioritize enemy Power Cores to take out shields and cripple their production.
