I've got a question about the gunboats on the Corvette master mission (SA). I've read the guide about completing the mission, but I am stuck on how to take out the gunboats when they break formation.


They seem tocontinually pitchdown, never presentingthe bottom of the ship. (Which I suppose is a good idea on their part.) This leaves me strafing the top of the ship and I gettorn to shreds in short order.


I am wondering since I may need to clean out the gunboats to get the timer going on a new Corvette spawn. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

if your talking about when they circle continually just sit at max range they'll take odd low accuracy shot at you but no problem IF you mean earlier than this destroy them before the vette makes them easier

Ah, thanks for the tip. I'll give that a try. To the Starship Terminal!
