Rebel Canpaign: The Death Star attacks Yavin IV before I have Rogue Squadron. Is this a glitch?

TItle says it all. Is this suppose to happen? There's no way for me to defeat the Death Star and it just blows up Yavin IV even if I win the battle.

I'm pretty sure you can use Luke Skywalker (flying in space as "Red 5"?) to destroy the Death Star.

Damn that's ♥♥♥♥, you need Yavin IV to get Red Squadron, whom you'll need to blow up the Death Starbucks. Still, as far as I know it's random, but in most of my runs it went for Kessel first.

I think they way they addressed killing the deathstar is bad overall.

For Rebels, well you need to send in a fleet and just take a pounding from their ships while you are regularly shot at by the deathstar. Let alone if its above a planet with a Hypervelocity gun. If you lose the red squadron either during the battle or otherwise, it gets free rain to kill everything win or lose the fight.

For Consortium, just get enough money and its a dialogue to kill it.

While i understand they tried to make it like the movies, we need a better way to kill it. If i have 60 Moncalmari cruisers why cant they just attack it? Or 1 billion fighters its a losing battle?
