Star Wars XWVM Alpha Historical Combat ToD 3 Mission 9: Capture Ethar 1 and II Hardest Difficulty

This is by far the most difficult tour in the game in terms of full clearing. Some of the missions took me upwards of two hours to complete, which is why they will be broken down into many parts. That, and I needed a month of content to publish while RtF happens in September.

This is the Historical Combat Chamber version of the previous mission with the AI on Top Ace. In order to do this, you must keep both of your wingmen alive through the inital Assault Gunboat skirmishes, as you need the AI to lock onto them so they don't destroy the shuttles instead. The gunboats that attack the shuttles do not seem to have warheads, or they didn't fire them, either or. The reason I was able to keep them alive was because I did not destroy the two shuttles that docked with the corvettes, whereas in the campaign playthrough I did.
