Help please

I'm trying to complete mission 1 of Darkest Dawn. It took me more then 1 hour and 30 minutes to cross the nav points and destroy the fighters. And then at the final nav point I can't even see the TCS Hermes. Is there like a time acceleration or a key that will let you go faster? And why can't I see the carrier?

Lol try alt+a to activate auto pilot to take you to the next nav point... its a little quicker

You can try the Prologue Campaign first - it's merely 5 missions.
It will familiarize yourself with the keys & basics of WC:

I really think having a couple of tutorial mission at the start of the main campaign would have been a good thing.
