    Part 2: Rescue Escape Pods:

    Too many times I see people follow one another like lemmings to one ship or the other to pick pods up. The problem with this is twofold.
    1. You have a limited amount of time to get pods, watch the timer go down.
    2. There are little BoPs trying to take/destroy the pods before you can get to them.

    If you do it right and get to both spots, you can get all 80. But both need to be done at once.

    Do it wrong, and you wind up getting very few pods from the second ship by the time you get there, pods have been destroyed and the timer is almost up.

    Another thing: RESCUE PODS! As with my post in the Gre'thor thread related to closing radiation portals, rescuing the pods is your FIRST, LAST, and ONLY job in that section of the queue. Get your ship XP in Argala if you're needing it, not here. Hurry to whichever ship has less people, and get pods.​​

    Also: General Advisory: If you fly the Jem'Hadar Vanguard Carrier, please be aware that the detachable subship will not work in this TFO, even if you have the console installed.

    Not sure if it's a bug or a 'feature', but it takes away an option, so you need to be aware the option is unavailable.​​
