Attack Imperial Convoy

[Update] Since installing the patch I have found that you will often get disabled at the end of the mission (as in the film). All you need to do is wait for the mission to complete then use 'Q' to quit. The mission will still complete sucsessfully.

A fairly hard mission which will test your dogfighting skills.

The Viraxos will only start to attack the convoy after you have inspected the first target, therefore choose carefully. I'd recommend getting to the nearest container as fast as possible and inspecting it, this will mean that the Viraxos are still a fair distance away.

As soon as the Viraxo turn nasty start taking them down. You have to save virtually all the cargo. I'd recommend linking all your weapons together to get them shot down as quickly as possible. Try not to worry too much about the fighters that are after you but concentrate on the fighters attacking the convoy.

There's not much else I can say except keep fighting until enough of the convoy has entered hyperspace then follow them. Hopefully enough of the convoy will have gone before the Empire shows up.
