Part 19

Master Part 19 of Star Wars: Zero Company with our comprehensive walkthrough. Learn strategies for Mission 12, 13, and 14, including the Death Star Trench Run.

Walkthrough:

1. Mission 12: Begin Death Star Assault
   • Objective: Destroy the Com-Sat.
   • Craft: X-Wing group Red (you - Red 2), A-Wing group Blue.
   • Details: Protect the flagship Independence from initial waves of bombers and gunboats. The Independence can withstand significant damage, but prevent too many torpedoes from launching. Intercept subsequent attacks to buy time for High Command to escape.
   • Enemy Debut: TIE Advanced (faster than T/I, quad laser cannons, shields, hyperdrive).
   • Strategy: Destroy bombers and gunboats first, then the TIE Advanced. Approach the Com-Sat, but be prepared to evade fire from the frigate launching reinforcements. Leave immediately after the mission is complete as the frigate will attack.
2. Mission 13: Attack Death Star Surface
   • Objective: Destroy four Container Hangars and all turrets within a 2-click radius of the Nav Buoy.
   • Craft: X-Wing group Red (you - Red 2).
   • Details: The Death Star surface is covered in laser turrets. Hangars launch TIE fighters and bombers.
   • Strategy: Keep distance from the surface to avoid turret fire. Identify and destroy the hangar launching bombers first, as they are trigger-happy with missiles. Use torpedoes for clean shots. Destroy the other hangars and any TIE fighters that reach you. Once hangars are destroyed, clear the laser turrets around the Nav Buoy. Avoid hitting turrets or the surface. Gain altitude and hyperdrive home after mission completion.
3. Mission 14: Death Star Trench Run
   • Objective: Hit the exhaust port with proton torpedoes.
   • Craft: X-Wing Red 1 (you).
   • Details: This is the final mission to destroy the Death Star.
   • Strategy: Before entering the trench, charge shields and lasers, and destroy three TIE fighters. Dive into the trench with full shields and lasers. Set shield recharge to normal, laser recharge to maximum, and lasers to fire single shots. Juggle shield power, maintaining a charge in the front and a little in the rear for cannons. Destroy laser turrets along the trench. Pump lasers into shields as they deplete. Avoid hitting anything. When about 3 clicks from the port, pull up, maximize shield power, switch to torpedo launcher (dual mode), aim, and fire. Listen for
