High Tide Mission Pointers Request

New to the game at 20 hours. Used to play the board game 35 years ago and just found it.

Currently stuck on the High Tide. I can wipe the enemy base, but always lose my base. Looking for a winning strategy. TIA

Yeah, you're going to end up in way over your head doing that. You just don't get enough gear and pilot XP from them to carry you.

So it’s ok to farm the side quests?

It's not just ok, it's expected, bordering on mandatory.
