FIX for Mission 3: Frozen Rheinlander Valkyries.

The place to ask for technical help with running the demo or the full game...

FIX for Mission 3: Frozen Rheinlander Valkyries.

The Rheinlanders are supposed to turn hostile and take you on. If not and you try to attack, you'll lose the mission. To get around this, just ram the Rheinlanders to death! Use your weapons to knock out their shields ONLY, then ram them until they die! It takes some time to do this but it works because ramming damage is so slight but the game will then continue as normal.

I've actually had luck 2 ways. I rammed the first Rheinlander to death after knocking out his shields and then accidentally fired on one of the others. Doh! Butterfingers! The mission ended but upon loading the AutoSave, the mission went through without a hitch; the Rheinlanders turned hostile and I completed the mission.

Believe it or not, on another forum (I won't mention any URLs), there was quite a discussion thread going on this topic. That's where I found the fix and it worked for me. But, since I like this forum better [;-P , I thought I'd post it here. I've also seen it asked about here in ElectricBrain's "FIX" post.

If you have this problem, it sucks hard because there is literally nothing left to do until those Valkyries are defeated. None of the trade lanes work; you can't dock anywhere - you can still fly around but it's like the whole universe shuts down and you and those Valkyries are the only living things left! I wasted a couple of hours trying to figure out what to do before I finally broke down and found a Walkthrough. It was only in the Walkthrough that I found out the Valkyries were supposed to turn hostile.
