Dreadnought Vs Modern Cruisers

[owman1]

I really need help getting through this mission, i've tried no less than a dozen different ships and the enemy takes me apart before i can inflict any appreciable damage back. The enemy battlecruisers are too fast to hit and their accuracy is insane, 100% at 10km. I honestly dont know what do to here.

Game values accuracy over anything else pretty much so almost always prioritize that. Armor weight changes also penalizes you pretty heavily for trying to bounce everything so would probably ignore it a little if you can use it to field more units. Otherwise 4x3 12.9s with 4 bbs full vet did it for me. Game also rngs on the battle so it's a crapshoot whether you'll fight a full fleet of vets or somewhere in between.

This is one of the stupidest missions in the academy. I managed it onmy 5th attempt in 1.05. Have no real desire to try again. 1 against 4, yeah :(

Brings on to another point. There should be an option to skip missions, especially as its tiresome even thinking about doing them again until the game reaches its end of life and there are no new changes that reset everything.

It's better to create 2 ships so 1 of them is usually at full health while the other takes the hits.
