I was wondering if you had any tips on the game (the comabt is pretty fast!), and if you had a text file of the hot keys as I don't have the manual to refer to, anything would be nice.

Just try to shoot down aliens, and boosting energy to shield, so you won't be the one to be shooted down. Anyway, your team mates do all job for you.

To bad that you can have only 5 interceptor in one group. (this is just 5 too many)

Yes, whatever you do, DON'T get killed, cause if your ship is destroyed all you teammates on that mission will be MIA . Pretty lame...

Thanks, yeh its actually pretty easy at the moment, BUT I am annoyed because I can't destroy alien jammer probes. When I enter the mission to destroy it, it isn't there? what the heck?
Also, how do you target alien outposts? any special shiny red button? 'cause just targeting a normal intercept mission on the star system doesn't work.

WRONG!!! They just break off - their commander is down!!

Also, to target outposts, you select the scale button ( I don't remember where it is - top left I think, or bottom left, I haven't played in a while!) and select the outpost, not an OPP. The OPPs are uneccessary to destroy, you just need the outpost.

Well, I lost all ships when mine wes destroyed... And I'm sure my teammates weren't death already.

EDIT : checked it again, now they break off indeed. They probably were destroyed then... Yet I was sure they weren't . Maybe because now I have v1.2 (doubt it, but hey...)

Your teammates often get blasted to space dust as they enter hyperspace, that was the cause of their destruction!

That's probably the cause, thx for pointing that out

Moreover, you can immediately order them to go right back in...
