Review... Greyface is an astounding mission. There are a few flaws though that come to mind. Although the mission design is excellent, the flaws in it are somewhat noticeable. First and most importantly, the mission takes too long to get set up. I would have prefered a shorter wait between events. Second, the mission was a little easy. Third and last, there wasn't any sense of urgency or enough action in the mission. What this mission excels in other than mission design is its sense of scale. Greyface takes place above a gas giant, and the feeling of fighting over it is almost impossible to convey. I highly recommend downloading this mission. Tips... WARNING! SPOILERS! WARNING! 1) Tell all fighters to protect the Eris at the beginning of the mission. There will be no enemy threats for a few minutes. 2) Once the Shivan transport arives, attack it along with one of your wings. Using both wings is overkill and will often result in losing both wings instead of just one. 3) Once you receive the order to attack the Greyface, order all wingmen to engage the enemy. There will be no other Shivan ships entering the area of engagement. 4) Don't worry too much about the sentry guns, as they don't pose too much of a threat to your ship or those of your wingmen. However, destroy them once every other Shivan ship has been destroyed to fulfill all of your mission objectives.
