As for space superiority, it worked different than the X-wing.

It did. It only had two blaster cannons, for a start. It made up for that with a heavy payload of concussion missiles and multi-role functionality with it's 2 ion cannons though.

Again, it's faster and more agile than both the Y-Wing and B-Wing, by quite a margin as well. Of course, both those ships flew like pigs anyway (although the B-Wing has the advantage or really powerful shielding and powerful weaponry).

Has to be Agi 2.

I remember that deep space mission, as long as you remember not to target lock, and just ramfire the cargo trains it was quite easy. Oh, and ignore the Gamma class shuttles.

Yes. I remember thinking "Y-Wing, 10 Proton Torpedoes, twin lasers and ion... yeah I can take those shuttles. Smash the escort, then the convoy"

Nope.

One big fireball later, a Gamma class shuttle gleefully sailing through the mangled wreckage of my Y-shaped coffin, and I'm restarting the mission.

It doesn't help that I'm determined to take out the Skiprays and Gunboats in the previous two areas as well. The Skiprays aren't too much of a problem, big target, ion them them down then finish them off. The Gunboats are much more difficult for the ol' Y to handle.

Yeah Alliance you had to have a different mentality when fighting anything above starfighter class. Non target locked was the way to go...
