I made a basic version of the Battle of Deneb once. Has anyone here actually tried? It's not difficult to set up a BoE... the only *****y thing is playtesting, like any complicated sort of mission. In a mainly cinematic mission like this, it shouldn't be a concern.
What I'm curious about is the whole GTD Legion thing. Everyone says that it's the GTD Legion getting holed in the intro, yet FS1 command briefs state that only the Bastion and Galatea are in Deneb. Where did this idea come from? FS2 ref bible?
And yes, the GTD OrionHoled can be found in a few campaigns. It's featured in Transcend.
