Haven't done any Freding for ages and felt like having a pop. Done in Vanilla with no mods as I haven't been paying attention to the lateset SCP FRED builds.

Feedback always appreciated, but it's just for fun so no worries if no one bothers.

Not bad, fairly enjoyable, plenty of action and all that.  Decent enough briefing and such, a little on the easy side but I prefer too easy to too hard.  Some minor spelling errors, oh and of course losing to those blasted Shivans always puts me in a foul mood.

   Nice mission overall, just needs a bit of polishing is all.

Hey thanks.

Um, I found a bug.  Ok here's how it goes down.

Playing on Normal setting I was able to save the Van Braun and nothing happened no jumpout nothing,  I tried it again while not moving and put on time compression and it worked fine.  Von Braun blew up and got jumput message and it worked like normal.  Unfortunately it was not that hard to save the Von Braun  Here's how I did it:

Ship:  Perseus like normal.
Weapons:  2x Prometheus + Tempest + Harpoon.

1) Ordered wingmen to protect rickenbocker.
2) Destroyed beam cannons on Rackshaza/Cain then destroyed them subsequently. 
3) Ravana comes in at a distance of about 5 clicks out or so I put all energy to afterburners and made it to the Ravana and destroyed the two forward beams and a couple of other beams on it's spines under the belly.
3.5) Ordered wingmen to protect  Von Braun
4) Demon warps in and I afterburn it over there and destroy the beams on the side facing the Von Braun.
5) Demon warps out at like 60% for some reason and Ravana is destroyed.
6)All enemies elimenated and volia, Von Braun/Rickenbocker saved.  End result was rickenbocker was about 60% and Von Braun was about 35% .  This was on the normal setting BTW so if it was easier it would probably be easier.

Hmm. I assumed them bombers would keep those pesky flyboys busy. Thanks for the feedback, I'll have a think and see if I come up with a fix.

Probably just a few more bomber wings would do it in the beginning while the ravana jumps in would do the trick.

Otherwise yea it's a good play.  (Also probably the later the cain/rakshaza are destroyed the better simply because the Von Braun gets further on the waypont path and alpha 1 has less time to destroy the beam cannons from say 5k out than from 2 or so.)

System Shock 2!  I knew those names sounded familiar!!

I thought it was important to have a lull before the destroyers arrived. Maybe some bombers preceeding the ambush would be a good idea. It's quite tricky giving the impression of an escort ojective which the player is supposedto fail tho. I needed the distance as they would bump into each other or kill each other quite quickly. If you look in FRED you may notice the Ravana isn't beam-free-all'd till part way into the battle.

Rickenbacker and Von Braun appear in all my one off's BTW. I did a TVWP submission ages ago with a Hatesphut Rickenbacker and a Fenris Von Braun.
