When it comes to Very Heavy Fighters, the Guardian is representative of the all-purpose middle ground, its main attraction being the ability to do practically anything. The Guardian is fairly fast and is difficult to hit, traits that make it virtually unbeatable in the hands of an ace pilot. Against the Sabre, your handling is virtually identical. Depending on the skill of the enemy pilot, box strafing works well due to the fighter's shape. Your best bet in a turn fight is to make the Sabre expose his extremely large wings to your fire. If you dodge properly the enemy will have a very difficult time hitting you. Against large ships such as bombers and the Pirate line, your superior maneuverability grants you a massive advantage. If you can stay on the larger opponent's tail the fight should be over the second it starts. As usual, be wary of jousting bombers. The Guardian is a well-rounded ship, and if you can use it to its maximum potential, almost nobody will be able to match you.Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by Minuit |
