Wing Commander Armada Playtesters' Guide
Tactical Advice
- The Kor-larh's big drawback is its tiny range. You can do massive damage to the enemy, but only when he's within 500 km. So time your shots. You have to get off as many shots as possible in the tiny time-window when the enemy is in range.
- You're in the greatest danger in the second wave, when you're trying to take out his Wraith fast. As the Wraith approaches, keep him on the edge of the inner circle of your radar screen. This is so if he gets a Leech off, it won't have a straight shot at your front. If the Leech misses you on the first pass, there's a good chance that it will run out of juice before it can make another pass. At the last possible moment, zero in on the Wraith and fire. You'll have, at most, one three-round burst, so it has to count.
- Once the Wraith is safely out of the way, you can settle in to jousting with the Gladius. They'll be able to get more shots off, but you'll do more damage, so it should be an even match. The Gladius doesn't have any targeting missiles that can seriously hurt you, but watch out for dumbfires.
