All laser power routed to engines. Linked advanced concussion missiles, fire at maximum range. Then speed on to the primary objective and lay a big old space bomb on it. Boom.

those were the days. 1994-5 was a long time ago.

One of my favorite missions at the time for the Bomber is when you're protecting the Ludwig. There's an A-Wing that drops in near the end. I put all power to engines and led him past the Star Destroyer that comes in at the end of the mission. The batteries distracted and damaged the A-Wing, and while he was evading, I turned 'round and locked him and blew him to bits. So much fun. For that mission it was like. "HA, I BROUGHT MY BIG BROTHER!"

Shhh...there, there, now. There's no such things as A-Wings. There never were any A-Wings...

Did you see Arvels new ability? I hope proton rockets exists unchanged in 2.0...

Can boost into people as if it was a maneuver, and can perform attacks at range 0 (when bumping)

**** that dial is sexy. Bombers with escorts could be a thing for real.

NO! A-Wings are mean and cruel to my sweet sweet bumblebees, and you can't talk about them in here! You take your A-Wing talk elsewhere!:P

Defenders must be those Jurassic era Dragonflies that could bite your arm off.

And speaking of things that make me happy.... Yeah, Defenders certainly got a huge bump. They finally have the Evade action, which makes me all sorts of pleased. I wonder what sort of upgrades they can take, and I'm also very irritated that I didn't get to see whether or not Rexler is intact.
