I did this for their last promo event, Don't think i would do it again.
I mean, I checked out the hangar for about 15 mins which was cool then went and did AC for about 45 minutes at which point i realized that was the extent of what the module offers.
So.. if you want to download 30gigs for an hour of fun:
Have fun.

PS: Description from ONE of these modes:Vanduul Swarm
“A Scythe one-on-one ain’t nothing to write home about. A pack of ’em?
Well, now you’ve got yerself a party.”
– Faisal Kuric, Pirate Captain, Nul System
In Vanduul Swarm you face off against the best of the Vanduul in a
series of waves that will test your skills as a combat pilot. The Vanduul
attack in waves and it’s up to you and your teammates to stop them!
•
Total Waves.
Fifteen
•
Elite Waves.
Every third wave contains an Elite enemy pilot.
•
Teammates.
You have two A.I. teammates (Vixen and Warlord, p.
9) who respawn each time you defeat an Elite Wave.
•
Ammo.
Replenishes upon respawn. Ballistic ammunition is replenished after each wave. Missiles are replenished after each Elite wave.
•
Respawn Limit.
You only have three respawns.
The Vanduul
In 2681, Humanity found a true foe. Attacking out of the black, the
Vanduul slaughtered a small town in Orion System without warning
and without mercy. Almost three hundred years later, we haven’t
learned much more. There have been no diplomatic negotiations. No
understanding of their culture. Just violence. Vanduul clans appear
to act independently of each other, making it impossible to approach
the species as a whole.
Over the years, UEE researchers have struggled to understand
exactly how their clans are structured. Among Vanduul pilots, they have
managed to discern a hierarchy. While the criteria for these divisions
seems to be unique to each clan (and the names are purely a Human
invention), they tend to exist in some form or another among all clans
so far encountered.
YOU’VE DOMINATED THE VANDUUL SWARM IN ONE.
NOW FLY IT FOR REAL.
Hornets have been logging time in combat zones for hundreds of years. With
the F7C, Anvil brings that dependability and adaptability to the civilian market.
See your local authorized Anvil ship dealer for details.

Game Modes
Clan Scavenger
The Vanduul Scavenger is the workhorse of the clan. Generally, these
young Vanduul are eager to prove themselves to their clan, but tend
to be rash and inexperienced. While a lone scavenger doesn’t present
much of a challenge, pilots should be careful, when one goes down
there always seem to be two more.
Clan Hunter
Hunter is the second level of status within Vanduul raiders. The clans
will look to the Hunters as candidates for their elite fighters. They will
be trained, attempting to replace impulse with cold detachment in
combat. Hunters generally prefer to fight from longer range at high
speeds. Many pilots have made the mistake of focusing too hard on
one hunter; they nearly always have friends nearby.
Clan Alphas
Alphas are far more seasoned than hunters. These Vanduul have
elevated themselves through combat, achieving a vicious balance of
efficiency and brutality. They are hardened, deadly and spoiling for a
fight. Expect these Vanduul to be fast, clever and significantly more
dangerous than hunters.
Clan Primes
Over the course of Humanity’s long and bloody history with the Vanduul,
hundreds of pilots on both sides have captured the public’s imagination
and fears. Composited from declassified flight logs, Original
Systems has recreated some of the Vanduul’s most feared and skilled
pilots throughout history as the ultimate test of your flying prowess.
Elite Vanduul Aces
Little King
A resilient and brutal killer, Little King is a long-range fighter, often
opening up well before it is in range, but with a deadly accuracy born
from its experience in clan raids against multiple UEE systems. It
has been known to lurk at the edges of a battle and pick off retreating
pilots and civilian ships caught in the crossfire. Pilots bestowed
its handle at the time of its death: it took two full flights of fighters to
take it down and the combatants said it was like taking on a Kingship.
The Priest
The only thing that eclipses the Priest’s skill and finesse in the cockpit
is its ferocity on the ground. During the Siege of Crion, Priest was
not only instrumental in fracturing the defensive line in space, but
also landed on the surface to seize a military stronghold. When it was
in a Scythe, UEE pilots quickly learned to fear its brutal, close-range
fighting style. What ultimately earned the Vanduul pilot its handle
were the Naval officers who claimed that it would get close enough to
hear final confession.
Bloodhound
First encountered during the Fall of Tiber, this feared Vanduul ace
was personally responsible for the destruction of thirty-two UEE
fighters. Combat analysis of the engagements showed an experienced
pilot in both long- and short-range dogfighting techniques,
it was a flawless combination of maneuvering technique and speed
that led to its handle. Once Bloodhound had locked onto you, it was
impossible to shake.
Payday
First identified in 2683, Payday was one of the first Vanduul aces
that the UEE ever faced. It quickly established itself as a brilliant and
adaptive foe, and UEE pilots began to collect a pool for the Vanduul
ace’s death. Needless to say, the ace survived all of those early pilots.
The collection continued to grow and the handle was born. Many UEE
pilots have been taken in by Payday’s apparently slow combat style
but when it pulls the trigger every shot goes where it wants it to.
Payday’s handle eventually took on a different meaning, referring to the
death benefits that the Messer Era would pay out to the pilots who
misguidedly sought their fortune against him.
Reaper
Simply put, one of the most fearsome Vanduul Warriors ever encountered
by UEE pilots. Credited to date with a hundred fifty-seven UEE
Naval kills, Repear has wielded its Scythe with unprecedented lethality.
The official Enemy Pilot Profile for Reaper suggests that pilots
should expect an extreme level of proficiency in all aspects of dogfighting.
It offers no weaknesses, no vulnerabilities. The most terrifying
thing about Reaper? It’s still out there. To date, no one has bested
this devastating Vanduul ace.

Vanduul Swarm Teammates
Vixen
Ada ‘Vixen’ McDonough graduated from the UEE flight school in
record time. An exceptional student throughout her youth, her abilities
in the field won her early recognition from her superiors and
a fast-track to the pilot’s seat. During her training a dummy round
accidentally shattered a nearby asteroid, pelting her ship with dust
and debris. She took shards of rock through the shoulder, abdomen
and thigh but miraculously survived. Doctors told her she wouldn’t
fly again. However, through a combination of cybernetics and sheer
pig-headedness, today she holds the distinction of being one of the
finest in the UEE fleet.
Warlord
Dao ‘Warlord’ Wynn has been a stalwart of the UEE fighting force
for years. He has passed up countless promotions in order to stay
in his cockpit, leading some to speculate that he’s not worth their
time. However, all naysayers fall silent when they see him fly. Quick,
precise and brutal when needed, Warlord has all the qualifications
of the UEE Elite . . . he just likes to stay out of the limelight.
Free Flight
“I couldn’t cope with open space for the longest time — the scale, the
beauty ... now I can’t get enough. I just spend hours staring out of the
window at the colours and shapes in the silence . . .”
– Dr. Verity Longbridge, Terra Astrographic Institute
Free-Flight mode allows you to simply drop in and explore the wonders
of space. Many pilots use this simulation to get familiar with
their chosen ship.
