DoP was very good. It was converted to FS2 by me, but it still needs the weaponry fixed.....

I'd say lower the Hades hull hitpoints to 200000 (it 800000 in ST, and I think in FS2 its only 400000). This make it only twice as strong as an Orion (or indeed the installation).

If this is still too hard, maybe make a special Harb bomb which does 1.5X the damage of the normal one.

This is what I suggest.

I do agree with people, the final mission was rather, poor in certain areas.  Flying a bomber is about the only way to do it i think (thats what I did;) )

I have almost finished porting it into FS2, where the Hades is MUCH nastier! (Tough with many lower powered beams!!!!), but I have not quite finished balancing it.

The key reinforcement comes in the form of a destroyer with 6 squadrons (2 of Ulyssuses, 2 of Valkryies and of 2 Medusas), wihch jumps in at close range behind the Hades to ensure that its salvo turrets are in range;7 .

The Hades does have a HUGE number of craft (my guess is that the HANGERBAY runs down the core of the ship, while the FIGHTER LAUNCHBAY is the section in the prow)

Oh, and the intial force against the station consisted of of 2 wings of hercs, 1 wing of medusas, 1 wing of Lokis, and a Leviathan:D

Although your wingmen, even with higher grade AI, still get wipped.......

I had wondered about that........

Ahhh.... The Hades, my namesake:nod:

Give it Lucifer beams. Then make the player watch as the GTD Soyakaze is wiped out. While it is dying, the GTD Myrmidon jumps in and launches a buttload of fighters and bombers, and backs-up like six Leviathan class cruisers.

What's the matter with the link to the Sathanas rift? I copy-paste it and it won't work. A little off topic.......

Did you do anything to the mission 'Hellfire'? That was my favorite in ST.

I didn't find it to be that hard, it was insanely fun. I consider it to be the best mission in ST.

I don't know how much my input matters but I think it'd be cool if another wave of cruisers or a destroyer is sent in after the Hellfire group is destroyed.
