[Audio goes out about two-thirds into the run because of Dazzle DVD Recorder + Windows Movie Maker shenanigans. Sorry!]

ashleywallace83 left a comment on my last run on this mission, pointing out that it in fact did not meet Gold requirements because the accuracy was off by three points. I don't know how I or anyone else didn't notice that in the nearly three years it's been, but what better time to fix that mistake than now!?

So I'll be honest: I hate this fucking mission and it's one of my least favorite in the entire Rogue Squadron series. Which is why you will see me do two things in this run that I don't normally do in my other ones, which are using the targeting computer and switching craft (except for Vengeance on Kothlis where you have to). The reason I use the targeting computer is because I waste too much time trying to find those stupid generators when I might as well press Y and have them highlighted for me. Luckily, the TCE requirement for Gold on this mission is extremely liberal. I switched to the Cloud Car because of that (rather embarrassing) crash I made into the balloon engine thing at Cloud City, leaving my shields at 0. A stray TIE Interceptor laser would have knocked me out and made me start all over AGAIN and I just didn't feel like having to deal with that crap, so I just switched to the Cloud Car (which is actually a pretty good craft).

Gold requirements:

Completion time: 6:40
Enemies destroyed: 110
Shot accuracy: 65%
Friendlies lost: 29
Lives lost: 0
Targeting computer efficiency: 72%

Even though it's been over two weeks, my order of Rogue Squadron 3D from Amazon still hasn't come in, but when it does, expect videos from that game!
