Last update: 11 May 2016

This part of the guide discusses side missions that have not appeared in the game's story.

Convoy - Defense

Take a look at the above minimap - Side missions - Campaign - Battlefleet Gothic: Armada - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Take a look at the above minimap. Red rectangles mark the locations of cargo ships. Splitting ships before the battle with Ork fleet is the best decision possible.

Deploy a cargo ship in each corner of the map. Deploy two Light cruiser be one of the ships and leave the ship in the other corner unprotected. In the central part of the deployment zone, deploy the last cargo ship and support ships.

After the mission starts, you gave to gather the ships in the central point of the map and the cargo ship. Activate combustion in the cargo ship to make sure that it is spotted by Orks. Some of the Ork ships should follow into the center of the map. This is a perfect opportunity for the rest of the cargo ships.

Select the ship that you left unprotected - Side missions - Campaign - Battlefleet Gothic: Armada - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Select the ship that you left unprotected. First, command it to steer towards the other end of the map, as close to the edge of the battlefield as possible. Within commands, select the status that corresponds to the button activated in the screenshot. Now, the ship will not concentrate on joining the battle and will follow towards the end of the map. Before the enemy forces have not taken interest in the bait in the center of the map, you should select the Running Silent order with the RMB. Thanks to this, you will travel farther before Orks realize that the ship is sneaking past them.

The situation is similar when it comes to the ship with the convoy - Side missions - Campaign - Battlefleet Gothic: Armada - Game Guide and Walkthrough

The situation is similar when it comes to the ship with the convoy. A large group of ships is sure to attract Ork attention. Do not use combustion up until the moment at which the ships are detected and identified. Set automatic engagement for cruisers and keep switching between the three areas on the map.

From the moment of being detected, cargo ships should be using Reload order that increases the rate of combustion regeneration and allows you to complete the mission faster. At this moment, it is a good idea to keep switching into the tactic mode and keep an eye on your ships to prevent them from being rammed. Do not use up combustion so that you always have the option to maneuver when Ork ships attempt ramming. The bait ship should keep performing maneuvers in the center of the map and distract Orks from the ship.

Proper coordination of actions and constant watching over the ships will allow you to complete the mission without suffering major losses - Side missions - Campaign - Battlefleet Gothic: Armada - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Proper coordination of actions and constant watching over the ships will allow you to complete the mission without suffering major losses. On the final straight, use the tactical mode and keep using combustion, but do not deplete it. The above screenshot presents the area next to the edge of the battlefield. If the ship manages to reach that field, it disappears from the battlefield and will be considered as defended.
