I thought I'd try it out with a small escort(a mamba and nova vanguards) through Pirate alley. I got chewed to bits by 50+ M3 fighters. This is my first "big" ship and I really don't know any tactics other than blasting away with my M3s. Any advice on how I should configure the WL on the Hyperion for small fighter defense, i.e. weapons, missiles, escorts(?)
Maybe I was being too eager and just undergunned to be messing around there.
