Mission 11: The defense of Mon Calamari | Rebel campaign Star Wars EAW Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Just as I said before: empire takes initiative now. All planets become active and you are notified about large enemy fleet planning to take over Mon Calamari. Ruining this attempt is your next objective.

Just after returning to the galaxy map, go to Mon Calamari. Admiral Ackbar is here, as well as four powerful cruisers. Send them all to join your main force and order shipyard to build some more.

I can't tell you where empire will strike, because it is quite random. Most often, however, enemy heads for Corelia first, so gather all your forces there. If enemy takes any other route, be ready to immediately reposition.

If things go well, you will fight Emperor's fleet on your own terms - near your space station and with help of planetary ion gun. In that case just use your Mon Calamari cruisers to build solid defensive line near the station. Position corvettes, bombers and Marauders behind them and then defeat incoming waves of enemy ships. Remember to use ion cannon - it can immobilize largest enemy vessels.

If you're unlucky, you may need to fight Emperor's fleet in his system - without support of your station. Mission is harder then, but Base One and Mon Calamari ships should help you win. Mission is over, once main enemy fleet retreats or is defeated.
