Afternoon all
just got myself to 4-3-3-3 as a SA member. was wondering if anyone can remember off the top of their head what needs to be done for the various missions from here on? so i can plan ahead.
also upto this point i've not been using droid programs at all..... what are the essential ones i should get?

I was able to solo all of them in a Dunelizard. The last one I had to use a Ryhk, but all can be done solo fairly easy. I personally think the teir 3 was harder. However you will need to have droid programs.
Reactor Overload 3
Engine Overload 3
Capacitor Overload 3
Weapon Overload 3
Capacitor to Shield Shunt 3
These are a must I feel. If you get the forth tier droid commands then it gets better. You can then use v5 FC, upgrade to CtSS4 and also fit in some shield re-enforcement commands too.

That one I had the least problems with, as I recall. All I did was hit IFF scramble and it was a piece of cake. I wondered, at the time, what the hell everyone was complaining about. The key is to get the pilot tactic early enough. Otherwise you're screwed.

if it helps,
the first missions inolves delivering packages (i think) to a couple of frieghters whilst fighting rebs - -I good tip I found was to wait until abig waves of rebs appears then in-system hyper to another point - -I got lucky and bascially 'jumped'' past them and almost came out of hyperspace right on top of teh freighter I was supposed to deliver to....
thesecond mission is a long escort involving waves of assorted imperial ships - they arent too hard - -mixture of tier 4 and 3, but you keep getting (I think every third wave) 3 tier 4 agressors - these are pretty though, but you can cope with the right tactics and use of special commands.
thethird mission seems to be the easiest, you are hunting valerians -after hopping round a few systems you end up escroting (again) a captured freighter - -again, waves of 4 or 5 tier 4 valerians to deal with - these seemed pretty easy as they were mostly kimos (big things = =easy to hit).
now the exit mission - -not tried that yet, but ive got some good advice from people on this forum how not to die that quickly...for this one, Im going to group I think.

the exit mission is killing a imperial ace and his buddys. Then kill a vailairan fs group and gunboat. Lastly kill corsec ace is his buddys. The imperial and corsec is real easy. i have yet been able to kill a gunboat buy myself. Some buddys helped me on that one.
then boom your done then you start of master missions. Kill 30 imperial guys in kessel then vette.
I was able to solo everything except the exit mission, 30 kills in kessel and vette i had help with thoose.
just remember on the delievery and the escort you might get overwelm with all the ships just hyper in the same system then go back. On the deilvery mission i had to hyper 6 times. Now knowing what i know now FIND a imperal guy that will give weapons overload and use your rector and capasitor overload commands too. It makes a BIGGGGG difference i have learned.
