The Privateer is still alive, but we are not interested to chase it, instead we want to cut it from all supplies. So a pirate cargo depot is the next target. But things are getting out of control fast.

Hints:
In this mission support ships can repair your hull, which make even this mission quite easy. But you can survive it with the right strategy without problems.
But this mission can be also extremely hard, if you do things wrong.
You highest rule should be, follow your directives! Only fight enemies that are attacking you or you are told to attack.
At the beginning, a pirate wing tries to intercept you, so destroy it quickly with the help of your weapons and wingmates. Target the cruiser in the distance to be informed, that this is the Privateer, but target and destroy the pirate sentry gun right afterwards and try to keep your wingmates alive, because they are very important for the rest of the mission.
After the depot is completely defenseless, order your wingmates to cover you and get nearly all of the cargo kills for yourself.
If there is an incoming Pirate cruiser with fighter escort, IGNORE it and order your wingmates to stay on your wing. The Pirates should not attack you either if you are far away enough.
Wait instead for the three Poseidon freighters, maybe they show up even before the cruiser, and order your wingmates to attack and destroy them immediately.
Now wait for the shivan arrival and attack their fighters together with your wingmates to bring them down, before they can cause trouble. Maybe there are now some Pirate fighters which want to participate in the battle and open their fire on you, destroy the Pirates which are attacking you, but try to keep distance to the PRC Chopper, because regarding to the story of the campaign, it survives this engagement. Battle all incoming shivans and attacking pirate fighters until the Pirates turn to friendly and kill the remaining shivan fighters with your new allies until all shivan fighters are destroyed and you got the order to leave the battle area.

Questions and Feedback in German and English would be appreciated, but is also possible in French, Spanish and Chinese, because my sister is able to read and understand it. But do not expect an answer in the same language.
