2 more questions, al rahan and the warp gate...

1/ Is al rahan scripted not to be taken out ? like u cant take out ivan petrov until the last mission ?? (i jack hammered, bandited (x3), and scremed (x60) him in one go) and still he won't go.

2/ u know the second time when u blow up the warp gate, the big advanced warp gate, while u r working on the 4 power cores, a class1 carrier warps in. i cant take it out. no more gamma, no more wingmates (i think a couple, but what good is that) then i blow the warp gate, warp out myself. in the debriefing, 'you should have taken the chance to take out the carrier, u have to work on ur tactical awarness, take the enemy when it presents itself' or sth like that. why cant i get a positive report on this?? how do u take out that carrier??


p.s. in reply to the escape pods, when u eject, and sometimes, the nanny comes and picks u up. i got a rilly bad report, but didn't get fired. something about 'the pilot's more important than the fighter' or sth like that.

Right, you can't take Al Rahan out in that mission. However, once I let the Ramases escape (on purpose, mind you - just to see what happens), and - what would you think - she joined the party in Mission 20, IIRC. Al Rahan in person comes in and it's a piece of cake to take him out. It was worth it (remember, he called you a dork before).
As to the warp gate:
after destroying the Kurgen that was hunting the Gammas, forget everything and afterburn to those power cores. As soon as the research facility is dow, blast the cores. Then you'll have the Krasny nicely cut into halves. Just hit the cores fast (missiles are also an option here).
Well, that's what I did. There could be other ways to do it. Guess there'll be more replies - choose the one that appeals most.
Good luck!

Try when the ships comes oput of the warpgate, before destroying the gate, to shoot it's engines and the shield generator. That might help.

nah, just blast the cores as soon as you can, that'll make the Krasnya (means "Red" in Russian) go all boom and you'll get tonnes of respect from Enriquez.

heey - that kinda makes sense. i tried taking out her sheild generators and engines b4, and tried calling 4 backup, hoping gamma would move in and torp her, but 'i'm sorry ur on ur own, godspeed'. but that totally makes sense. only i hope that i can get to blasting the cores fast enough...
thnx alot though.
