- I just got my copy of Hellcats Missions at Leyte Gulf, and basically, I'm quite
- impressed. I thought I was Hellcats Master before this. This game is truly
- quite difficult (at least it is right now. It might get easier after a few
- more missions). There are too many damn things trying to shoot you down.
- I have only managed to complete two missions, but both times I got killed before
- making it back to base. I do like the overall game though. It seems quicker,
- and all the new features are quite impressive (rockets, torpedoes (a bitch
- trying to hit ships with them though), moving targets, etc., etc.).
-
- I have noticed one slight discrepancy. In "Scramble 2", I chased the one
- remaining bomber (after I failed the mission. This was a revenge chase).
- Anyway, when I caught up to him, I rocketed him and what I believe was his
- escort fighter (a regular zero I think, I had shot down both Franks). The
- thing was, when I landed, it said I shot down a bomber and TWO AA GUNS!
- Huh? Since when do anti-aircraft guns fly?
