PRELIMINARY BRIEFING
--------------------
This mission puts 6 TIE Bombers from Theta Squadron, 6 TIE Advanced from
Beta Squadron, and the ISD Chimaera up against 8 Dreadnaught-class Cruisers
from the legendary Katana Fleet. It may at first seem like an impossible
mission, however I have sucessfully flown it a number of times during beta
testing. It is quite possible, and rather challenging, but I feel my fellow
TIE pilots will use it as a learning experence making them appreciate the hords
of Rebel starfighters we normally encounter. The odds, though slightly in the
enemy's favour, are quite easily changed with a few well co-ordinated attacks,
and well placed warheads.
