Wow, this is impossible

Holy crap this mod makes the game impossibly hard. I took a difficulty five mission as my first and it took me ten minutes to kill a single dagger with an A-wing and four level 3 punishers! Then his back up arrived and it I couldn't kill another one. The shields have too much hitpoints and regen too fast for my four level three punishers to be of any use. I also *EDIT*: WAS drunk cuz I couldn't get my A-wing to fly straight. I found myself constantly overcorrecting to aim at the target. This mod would be perfect, but man is it hard... I don't have thirty minutes to kill for every lousy, low paying, random mission.

I found that if you just replace one of your normal weapons with one of the shield killer types(you know the ones that do massive shield damage but very little hull damage) that it nullifies this NPC advantage.

As soon as the shiled comes back up it is taken back down by your next shot.

If people would:

1: Use missiles
2: Use weapons that effectivly take out shields

This game would be very easy.

Also trying to take out lv 10 shields with lv 3 weapons is not going to get you very far...

Erhmm... yeah, I apologize for this post. I was very VERY drunk last night, and that may have been why it seemed so difficult. My advice for everyone: Don't drink and fly. If I were sober I probably would have figured out a way to combat this problem of really strong shields on NPCs.
