Ok, so I know how to move and stuff, but can I fly a longprobe and bring my two cloakshapes with me? there's an option to set as NPC controlled but I don't exactly get what that means... I tried looking in the rules, but htere's nothing about what commander/pilot and all that stuff means...
No, to make squadrons of fighters, they need to all be of the same type. Not too fond of that system myself, but eh... They don't seem willing to change it.
