hey folks,

I'm gettin' pretty frustrated.  I'm on mission #12-13 or thereabouts, the
one where you have to destroy the fighter cover before the marines can
dock at the Kilrathi starbase.  My mission is simple: destroy all fighters
at nav point one and return to the Midway...problem is, the mission always
stops at about 3 min point and says "failed" (not always at exact same
moment)...I don't understand: am I actually supposed to destrot ALL of the
fighters encountered before the 3 minute mark (highly improbable)?  The
mission then continues (I eventually wipe up the bugs, never losing even a
wingman) and always ends with the Midway gettin destroyed
(long before I can even engage any enemy)...what am I missing?

thanx in advance,
demian
