MIssion 4 - What a Blast!!

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

MIssion 4 - What a Blast!!

Managed to make it to Mactan base in my Defender. Had used up all my sheid batteries including those I could salvage from my kills. I know the mission's not over yet but it was quite a rush getting there.

Some questions to clarify events (I was too busy trying to stay alive to take in the conversations):

a. Where was the Battleship Unity? After leaving Manhattan one of the mission objectives was to destroy the ship. Tried to locate it (using the 'T' key) while frantically manoeuvering to avoid getting hit) but couldn't find it. Then later it was time to hop into the trade lane.

b. What happens to Bedford Station and Juni's friend in there? Destroyed?

By the time I made the jump into Magellan I had very few batteries left, only one or two. Killed a bounty hunter or two at the ambush there, managed to scavenge more but used it all up later. Thank goodness for the Lane Hackers. If it weren't for their timely arrival it would've been reload time!

Game definitely taking on X-Filish feel. You know, conspiracy theory & all.

I believe the Unity is the battleship guarding the West Point trade lane. When the mission starts, the plan is to go to Fort Bush, but after you get ambushed you run to West Point.

At this point in the game, it's not terribly hard not to get hit - just cruise around until the scripted events unfold, since you don't have to kill anything, and nobody has cruise disruptors.

And to answer your last question, yes, the poor sap in Bedford blows up along with the station
