I loaded up Freespace 2 again and played through the dreaded 'Bearbaiting' mission.
So. Friggin. Hard.
It took me so many tries before I got all four forward beam cannons of the Satanna destroyed. I admitt a little bit of luck is involved. The angle needs to be juuuuust right to take them out with only 2 bombs. Screw the flak guns. It's impossible to destroy them in time. The AI wingmen are too dumb to help and I need them to be cannon fodder for the SF Basilisks anyways. I bombed the Beleth after that and jumped, but I didn't get credit for the kill. I just realized that I've never logged a kill for a Demon class cruiser. That kinda sucks.
And then I got promoted after blowing up the Satanna in the next mission!
