Cairo 3

Please post your after-action reports here.

Nothing to report. Honeybear and I were able to nail those Capships and she obeyed me well.

Is that code? 😂

Another nice, straight forward mission.

Again: More details please. This comment doesn't help us at all.

On medium difficulty: Spiculum again for this mission. I like Honeybear pushing to continue with the mission. At Nav 1 I use the missiles to destroy the Dralthis as quickly as possible, to avoid them doing too much damage on the friendly ships. The Frigate is no challenge afterwards. At Nav 2 I put max power on shields and rush in for the Ralarrad, ordering Honeybear to cover me. One torp and she is gone. We concentrate on the corvette once the fighters are gone. At Nav 3 I link two torpedoes and rush in for the Light Carrier like before. The double torp takes it out at the first run. We remove the remaining fighters. The call back of the Hermes already prepares us for something big.

In overall a simple search and destroy mission. I like the fact that a mission is simple for a change. I did not find any bigger problems on this one.

After the last mission it's nice to bring it down a notch and stick with some smaller scale action.

Nav 1 - The Frigate was no problem after we cleared out the fighter opposition. Staying behind the Frigate is a good idea as those missile batteries aiming forward really caught me by surprise the second time. I do wonder if the Frigate shouldn't turn into the battle instead of running from it. Brings those missile batteries up front where players will definitely notice.

Nav 2 - No problems here. Blew away the Destroyer while the fighters largely handled the defending fighters. We all ganged up on the Corvette last.

Nav 3 - Love the banter here 😊 This time we all went after screening fighters. Didn't want to take a run at the light carrier until we had the fighters out of the way. Once we did... then I got in behind and launched a pair of torpedoes to end it.

Mission over. I like how the recall order here feeds into the next mission.

This is a very different mission than the last one. It's not as spectacular and it isn't my favourite but it's a solid mission. Again... no bugs noticed.

The thing that caught my attention at the end of this mission and the end of missions Cairo-4 and Alcor-2 was the debriefing. In each case the quality of the debrief voice-over is poor, definetly subpar to the standard I'm used to seeing. The voice actor is obviously reading the script. Can we get another take on these debriefings?

The actor always talks like this. He is supposed to sound like that.
