XvT/BoP Alliance Mission Set: Lost Missions Part 1 12/8/2015

 

For XvT =WITH= BoP addon (original CD) or the new GoG version

 

Part 1 - Nowhere to Run:

 

The Alliance has been forced to abandon Hoth after it's discovery, and subsequent invasion, by Imperial forces led by Darth Vader. With the Alliance on the run once again, they find they have nowhere to hide, and nowhere to run with the Empire in hot pursuit, determined to destroy them. Just as after the Battle of Yavin, With Alliance forces scattering throughout the Outer Rim, many units are standing alone, but standing firm against The Empire.
In the midst of this chaos, Star Destroyer Warrior and it's task forces are determined to exterminate Red Squadron, whose exploits are known throughout the Galaxy. The Alliance =will= fight back in order to survive.

 

This is part 1 of a 3 part series chronicling the adventures of Red Squadron in the post-Hoth time frame. The other "Lost Missions" will follow as they are completed.

 

These are to be used/placed into your ...Balance of Power/Combat folder.

 

All missions have been edited for fairness & balance (hopefully!), due the the enhanced AI and weapons effectivness in XvT/BoP. All have new briefings and descriptions. I've added LOTS of radio messages to act as "in game hints" and to further plot lines. Please pay attention to them, as some may save your life or your mission critcal craft.

 

As always, =PLEASE= read the install instructions. Of course, the usual "Notes" and other nonesense. The original readme is included for historical purposes, and contains short descriptions of the mission (some of which have been changed) and the original backstory. Unfortunately, there was no name attached to these, so proper credit can't be given. My apologies to the original author.

Thank you - really appreciate this and am looking forward to Red Squadron's next two lost mission sets!  I'm finally getting caught up on installing all these XvT/BOP downloads with their improvements.  From one of your previous posts, did I also understand that you had some advanced mission sets for the X-Wing Alliance story?

I had ONE! It's XWA conversion of my one and only (to date ) foray into FULL mission creation. But it needs major re-editing, to fix a lot of the action sequences. To say nothing of needing the ship patch (XWA Upgrade???--can't remember!) as one mission had T/Ds showing up.

 

which is why I've not released the TFCD conversions for XvT -- they just end so quickly, and you're left flying around wait for the final mission complete message. (and the later mission require a ship patch for many of the missing ships -- Carrack cruiser, T/D, MIS, and couple others)

 

As I understand it, you can convert any XvT mission set to XWA, but need to set the region orders -- you start in region 1 (base/PLT/home ship), hyper to region ***, do you thing, and return to region 1. A lot more work, but is doable!
