Briefing
We have to penetrate Human defences. Attack and
destroy all of the cowardly Humans before they can
retreat. You will be flying the DRALTHI light fighter,
the fastest in our fleet. It holds two dumbfire missiles,
so use them only if necessary.

Wing Commander Armada Playtesters' Guide
Tactical Advice
• Your first checkpoint has no enemies. Take a minute to make sure you have everything in your cockpit set to your preferences (and coordinate with your wingman, if you're playing 2-Player Gauntlet), then hit Autopilot.
• There's not much difference between fighting Arrows with Dralthi and fighting Dralthi with Arrows, so the tactics for the early levels of the Confederation missions work equally well for the Kilrathi.
• Your biggest vulnerability versus the Arrow is your larger silhouette, which makes you easier to hit. To minimize this, train yourself to roll as you fly at the enemy. Rolling a Dralthi while keeping your ship on target requires a bit of adjustment, due to the Dralthi's offset guns, but if you can master the art you'll find your odds for survival materially enhanced.
