Mission 9: Attacking Tekagi''s Fortress PLEASE HELP ME!

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 9: Attacking Tekagi''s Fortress PLEASE HELP ME!

This is the mission where you have to defeat one huge group of ships, and then another group, then destroy the generators on the base. I'm having a hard time even getting past the first group of ships. Im flying a fully loaded Crusader, which is probably part of the problem, i should have upgraded my ship when I had the chance. I have done this mission atleast 15 times and im getting pretty frustrated. If anyone could post some tips on how they beat this mission i would appreciate it.

No idea... I flew that mission with that Bounty Hunter ship available back in Kusari. Aside from that, just try to keep moving as much as possible I guess.

Well, figures, minutes after i post a msg for help i find a way to finish the mission. I guess i'll answer my own plea. Up until this point i have used my thrusters rarely. I guess i failed to see their importance before but by being very agressive and using the thrusters to ride the ass of the enemy i was able to get very close to the enemy ships and destroy them fairly quickly. After i got past the first wave of ships i let my group take care of the second wave of ships while i concentrated on destroying the generators. It was all pretty easy once i started using the thrusters. So if anyone has been neglecting the use of thrusters like me, start using them in battle, they are very usefull, although i would still trade my thrusters in for a second shield if i could.

Upgrading from the Crusader is the biggest issue here. Getting the best thruster early helps too, "advanced thruster" lasts longest.

Defeating the first wave of fighters is a little bit of trouble, but I do manage it using the Hawk ship and a very active use of my heavy truster.
The second part I have more problems with, taking the generator out is hard! Maybe I don't have the best firepower for these things, but even the heaviest of the missiles makes much damages, and I'm under heavy fire all the time. Anyone who has completed this part who can tell me what kind of ship they had and weapon combo?

I used a hawk with 2 adv. skyrail, one advanced stunpulse as shild breaker and a flashpoint to finish of fleeing nearly destroyed ships, ah well and I had loaded 10 wasps, not that they would help in that mission

I finished the fighers, and than used reverse thrust and short afterburned moments to maneuver near the shilds abit while constant firing at them.

I was real close to the shilds and used them as cover.

was damn easy ...
