As Lightning Fall

Introduction: Commander Snipes is caught in a volatile sector of the nebula. Find him and his ship, the NTT Grall.

Mission Objectives:
Primary - Find Commander Snipes

Recommended Ship: GTF Erinyes
Recommended Loadout: Kayser (p1), Prometheus S(s1), Tornado (s2), Rockeye (s3)

Walkthrough: While the mission technically isn't very hard, the EMP distortions and the difficulty in following the nav buoys makes it quite a bit more difficult. Find the very first buoy and hold your position near it. You should see on your radar a faint grey blip. Point your ship in its direction and head there. You'll encounter buoy #2 and a few wings of Shivan fighters.

Deal with the enemy fighters and proceed to the next buoy. Follow the buoys along using the nearest buoy and the starting buoy as references. Take out the Shivans along the way, but don't stray from the path of buoys or you'll get lost. When you find the NTT Grall, defend it from the Shivan bombers and call in the transport using the Reinforcement comm.

This mission really is kinda fun, but the EMP makes it harder and certainly the getting lost aspect may be frusterating. Just keep your head, and try and mentally draw a map of the area in your head, its possible, I did it.
