Greetings once again:

I am doing the mission with Juni escorting 2 freighters with artifacts
after launching from CA minor (you don't seem to have a choice to do
some other missions before meeting her), we do 2 waypoints, at the
3rd, suprise, suprise, the bad guys come out.  I have done this one
about 6 times in a row and always get creamed pretty quickly.  
Now, before I put the computer through the wall, what am I doing
wrong?

She has me engage the enemy, I can kill one or two, I use up my shield
and bot supplies pretty quickly, my shields tend to get nailed pretty
damn fast, is there a type of shield I should use against these
certain bad guys, they seem to hit really hard and faster than
anything eles seems to.

The game isn't any fun if I keep dying really quick every time.

Thank you for you help!
