There should be a lot in the X2 scripts and modding forum. Also the readme for the X2 bonus script pack, in the "Start/All Programs/.../ X2 bonus package" menu.

The gunnery crews added better handling of the gun turrets in battle. You have to find them at trading docks or equipment docks, and they disappear fast. Follow a crew transport and dock ahead of it, and then buy fast.

You don't need the "AEGIS" commands to run guncrews, it adds extra stuff for big ships.

You need more than one guncrew per turret, and bigger ships need more. It also works better if you have different guns that can be mounted in the turret. Guncrews cost a salery, every once in a while.

Missile defense fires mosquito missiles at incoming enemy missiles.

Missile assault fires a lot of missiles at an enemy target. It is something to see, when the wingmen are in it too. Although the last two might be another script.

WRT to gunnery and Aegis I wrote up some notes for the facts-X2 forum a while back, here's a link

if you search the X2 forum there for "gunnery" you will get a lot of hits.

or:

instead of chasing the transports yourself. add the buyraregoods script to your collection. then simply pick one of your transports, tell it to buy Military Personnel, and how many. then wait till it brings them back to its home base. hehehe

well. it saves me having to do it
