---------------- Project Sylpheed ---------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Walkthrough and Achievement Guide -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The reason I've written this guide is because those of you who have played the game (and reading this) will know how confusing some missions and achievements are so this has been written to clear a few grey areas up. Another great guide is http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox360/file/932514/49494 Written by the Rebirth.

The main objectives consist of the following missions. Destroy all targets. Destroy enemy fleet. Protect the (insert ship name here). or just keep fighting until the mission finishes. The sub objectives are secret in each stages but after a while you can start to have a good guess what they'll be. sub objectives consists manly of the Following. Shoot down all enemies. Shoot down all enemies in a short time. Shoot down enemy fighters (shown with a yellow marker e.g. the hellfires). Shoot down enemy fighters in a short time. All ships survive. All escorts destroyers survive. Flag ship takes no damage. and there are various others throughout the game some are required to get medals and others are just there so you can give yourself a pat on the back. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Hints and tips: [is0] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- A few things that might help you to get some of the harder achievements All achievements can be done on easy mode (unless otherwise stated). Some achievements will require better weapons to obtain to wait for the Second play through. Leave about 5 mission targets (or 2 warship targets) until there are no other Enemies to destroy this will make it easier in getting some sub objectives as well as helping to rack up your warplane count. Choose a missile system with a large number of lock on over range and power. If new enemies appear on the radar it is easier to kill them while they are still information it’s even possible to take them all out (9-12) with one round of missiles Listen to the radio messages for important mission information such as when Raymond is in trouble Don't Worry about friendly fire I recommend telling your wingman to break way ASAP to avoid hitting her with a few nukes Fighting the Night Ravens is easier than it looks there’s a trick when on a one on one with the main mission target wait for him to charge you and fire a few Anti war ship missiles at him one will hit and kill him fastest time I've killed him was about 6 seconds. Turn Auto save off and save on a different slot for each level if you want all the mission achievements without having to play through again. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 1: Surprise Attack [is1] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Shoot down all marked enemy fighters and attackers. -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy all enemies (this means the non mission targets as well) Mission part 2 2. Destroy Enemy destroyer (the big thing right in front of you at the start) 3. Destroy 2nd Enemy destroyer (jumps in near the end of them mission listen for the radio message) 4. Destroy all enemies (warning watch the radar some enemies will disappear) -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Just attack whatever you lock onto until you wipe out all the mission targets Mission Part 2 if this is your first play just take out the figthers just do the same as part 1 if this is your second playthrough then take out the destroyer first this kill everything else. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 20G--------------------------- Space Combat Participation Award Awarded for participating in fighter combat in outer space. Unlocks after mission no special requirements needed =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 2: Declaration of War [is2] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Shoot down all marked enemy fighters, attackers, warships and missiles. -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Rescue the ally Destroyer (Yellow marker, just shoot the down the ships near it) 2. Destroy all enemy Warships 3. Destroy all enemy fighters Mission part 2 4. Rescue the ally Destroyer (Yellow marker, just shoot the down the ships near it) 5. Destroy all enemies 6. The Ally Cruiser took no hull damage (Green Objective) Don't worry about this one most of the time you get it anyway... Mission part 3 7. Destroy the Destroyer attacking the Acropolis. 8. Destroy all figthers and Warships (Just kill off all the turrets just before you blow up the missile) 9. Destroy all enemy Cruise missiles (Red marks you need to be quick for some of these) -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Just take the the Enemy Cyclops that are dead ahead. Then carry on into the fleet and try and take out as many destroyers as possible don't worry about the crusiers unless you're confident you can sink them. Then just clear out the rest of the mission targets until the checkpoint. Mission Part 2 Don't both with the figthers around the Crusier just fire a fire rockets then move into the fleet then just take out as many destroyer you can without dying once done move onto the figthers until the mission check point. note there will also be a yellow marker on this mission this is a destroyer that needs saving, its not important but its there if you want to help. (if you do you get a few more arrowheads to help you). part 3 This part is easy just survive and whenever a Cruise missile jumps out blow it up simple. Note: shooting all the missiles down before they hit the base will hook you the medal and the Achievement. in between each set of missiles you can do what you want so go kill some figthers or warships but more importantly have fun :D -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 20G--------------------------- Schlos Base Defence Award Awarded for stopping enemy attacks on Schlos Base. You will need to stop all the Cruise missiles to acquire this achievement Also note you need to shoot down the destroyer targeting the Acropolis as well as some of the other Warships. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 3: Black Squadron [is3] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Protect the Cargo ships (basically shoot down enemies until they escape) Note part 3 you just need to kill the leader of the Night Ravens -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy enemy Turret's in a short time (Just destroy them until it pops up, you don't need to kill all of them) 2. The Ally Destroyer Survives Mission part 2 4. Destroy both destroyers (The first one is in front of you the second one it 70 unit away but Its in the cargo ships way so kill it when its gets closer) 5. All 3 cargo ships Survive (Warning cargo ship 3 will die very quickly if you don't protect it so just Protect cargo ship 3 and kill and fighters that are closing in while they Are still in formation) Mission part 3 6. Destroy the Elan Fighters in a short time (They come from the left as you start the mission don't worry about them until they get closer) 7. Destroy All enemies (Just kill off the first mission target then kill everything else until There’s just the mission target left) 8. Destroy both enemy aces (Kill the first mission target straight away then the second will appear) 9. All Transport Survived (This is easy just kill everything these ones don't seem to die) -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 First take out those enemy warships these can be a pain if you don't. Next just take out all the mission targets and any other targets you lock onto Tip: when new enemies appear attack them while they are still in formation this will allow you to take out most of them without even breaking into a sweat. Mission Part 2 First all Take out that Destroyer this will sink lady 3 if you don't. Note: theres also another destroyer 74.0 units away but leave this for now. now quickly take out as many figthers as you can in the area before the attackers arrive. The attackers (cyclops) will come from cargos ships left side take them out while they are in formation. After this keep taking out the enemies near the cargo ship. Most importantly if you want the achievement you will need to protect lady 3 more than the others because this one seems to sink very quickly. other tips for this listen carfully to the radio message and try and take out the attackers before they reach the cargo ships. When you reach about half way (radio message will tell you this) the second destroyer shold be about 30 away once this reaches about 20 go take it out otherwise this will sink lady 1 just keep this up until they escape. Good luck this mission is hard first time round on any setting. if lady 3 is sunk don't panic just go for the achievement on the second playthrough when you've got some better weapons. part 3 now this can be hard and easy. The easy method is wait for about 3 mins thne take out the mission target this you only need to take out one enemy ace. the harder way is to take out the mission target (once it appears) and then take out the second one right after, which can be hard. note if you almost kill the first mission target he might retreat which means you have to fight both of them without getting the sub Objective... -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 20G-------------------------- Aegis of the People Medal Awarded for escorting the 7 refugee ships to safety. Just like it says makes sure no cargo ships are sunk. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 4: Reunion [is4] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Sink all targets -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy all enemies in a short time Mission part 2 2. Destroy all enemies 3. Shoot down 2 enemy aces. -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 This ones fun just kill them all :D well it might be hard on the first play but this it fun on the second play through with condor 120AM hehe bye bye. Mission Part 2 sink the Destroyers then take down the mission targets just like with the pervious mission. remember if you do it quick you will need to take down the second Ace so this ones yor call. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 20G--------------------------- TCAF Luna Medal Awarded for bravery beyond the call of duty to escort allied vessels to safety. Just complete the level I don't think you need a certain rank for this... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 5: Star System Escape [is5] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Destroy enemy targets -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy all enemies targeting Bird flight (Just destroy everything and you'll probably get this without thinking you will normally get the message "Katana! If you want to help go right ahead") Mission part 2 2. Destroy the Hellfires (yellow marker) 3. Destroy the Hellfires in a short time -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 This mission takes a while basically its the same as the cargo ships but easier just keep shooting down anything you lock on to until there all gone. remember take them out when in formation for quick kills. Mission Part 2 Take out those destroyers before they do some seroius damage. next just take out the figthers just like in part 1. Best thing to do is to take the figthers that a far out and let bird flight kill the ones closer. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G--------------------------- TCAF Mars Medal Awarded for bravery beyond the call of duty under fierce enemy attacks. You will need to get an S rank in this mission for this achievement. This can be done either easy and you require all sub objectives and finish the mission quickly. or you can do it on hard and you probably get it by just doing the mission at a steady pace. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 6: Rendezvous Planet [is6] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Sink the enemy fleet and all other mission targets -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy all enemies 2. Destroy the Hellfires (yellow marker) 3. Destroy the Hellfires in a short time Mission part 2 4. All Allied ships survived 5. Both escort destroyers survive Mission part 3 6. Rescue Raymond 7. Ally cruiser survived 8. Destroy all enemies -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Just take out the missions target don't worry about the other ones they'll just fly past you anyway. when the hellfires show up its up to you if you want to kill them but you can just leave them and kill the mission targets for a quick win. If you do go after the hellfires thy can be a pain there just like figthing the night raven aces just a bit easier. Mission Part 2 This is hard you need to take out the enemy fleet and all the figthers within the time limit. ok as before just go after the fleet right off then take out the figthers. Note: keep an eye on your armour and shield if you're not careful you can die here in seconds. Note 2: theres a tanker as well as the carrier on this so use both for a restock and repair. One good thing about this part is Yoji pops in and protects the Actopolis for you and he's good so just let me do that and help him whenever near. Mission Part 3 Go for the Battleship first these things might be big but they sink pretty quick just think of them as 2 cruiser stuck together and trust me there are bigger things to kill later. To take down the Battleship a Charged Y attack (to level 1) should do it if not 2 of them will. as soon as thats sunk take out the other ships. BUT before you kill the last one go save raymond he should be flying around somewhere near you (do this only if you need the achievement) -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 50G--------------------------- Soldier's Charm Amulet Given to you by Raymond as a token of his trust. ok this one is easy to get you just need to wait until Raymond get shot and complains about it. After this find him (he's normally in-between the 2 fleets) and shoot down everything near him. There will be allot of enemies after him so just keep sinking warplanes until he thanks you. Word of warning stay away from Raymond until he gets shot I've managed to the whole mission without him being hit by total accident. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 7: Operation Nebula Blaze [is7] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Just survive until your fleet has made it past the enemy (approx 15 mins) -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy enemies in a short time 2. Destroy the Hellfires (yellow marker) 3. Destroy the Hellfires in a short time Mission part 2 4. Destroy all enemies (don't forget the ones that flanked you, use the radar) 5. All allied ships survived -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Oh hello Yoji the good pilot is not rhino 4 bonus. ok once again go for the fleet taking out and figthers on the way the quicker you take out the carriers and the destroyers the better once the fleet has be flattened start taking out the figthers. You don't need to worry about protecting anything but watch out for Anti aircraft fire because this stuff is deadly on this stage. once again those damn Hellfires will shown up lead by the even more annoying wayne once again its up to you if you want to kill them my advice is forget them Mission Part 2 Survival mission YAY! ok now just work from left to right and take them out one by one (don't worry about the figthers). At some point in the mission you will hear radio messages about being flanked don't worry about them until you go a restock you will see a few ships floating around the acroplics just shoot the down (theres a few carriers and destroyers i think). Note there are a few battleships in here as well just be careful near them. Just keep this up until either you kill everything or the mission ends -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 20G--------------------------- White Griffons Patch Awarded to the commander and pilots of the White Griffon Squadron when it is formed. you get this at the end of the level nothing is required to achieve it =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 8: Fortress of ADAN [is8] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Destroy all mines and the enemy fleet -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Defeat the Guilty Roses 2. Defeat the Guilty Roses in a short time (this is a hard one I managed to do this by firing a few anti warships missiles at them then finishing them off with a few normal missiles) 3. Allied Cruiser Survived 4. Destroy all enemies (just leave a few mines at the end then clear everything else out. Mission part 2 5. Destroy all enemies 6. All allied ships survive 7. Allied cruiser took no damage (same as before just ignore it) -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 I hate this mission just blow up the mines don't bother with the figthers you might even finsih this section before the Guilty roses appear. but if you do fight them these are evil you need to fire a few rockets at them while they're still in formation then use missiles to finish them off. so aim carefully Mission Part 2 Another easy section just take out the mission targets for a quick win you don't need to worry about the figthers on this so enjoy the easy ride the next mission is much harder. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 30G--------------------------- TCAF Jupiter Medal Awarded for bravery beyond the call of duty during withdrawal of the allied fleet. To get this it has been said you need to get an S rank but I managed to get this with an A rank I think you just need to beat the mission in a fast time. I did this on easy so try it a few times if you don't get it =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 9: Abandoned Planet [is9] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Destroy all marked enemies. Then survive until the mission ends (approx 15 mins) -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. All ships Survive 2. Destroy all enemies in a short time Mission part 2 3. Defeat the Guilty Roses 4. Defeat the Guilty Roses in a short time 5. All ships survive Mission part 3 6. Destroy the enemies hiding in the terraforming unit 7. Destroy all enemies 8. All allied ships survive -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Another simple part of a mission just kill everything. The only thing you need to watch out for are the AA Frigates but once there gone this is easy. near the end you will meat a new Attack type called Gargantua these can be a pest because they are quicker than the cylops and they can dodge missiles better oh well more fun then. Mission Part 2 First as always take out the warships once these are gone just kill whatevers left you don't need to kill all the mission targets this time you just need to survive you'll see why in part 3. ok Now its the Guiliy Roses again. just use the same tactic as before (the seem to be harder to kill this time) and good luck. If that tactic doesn't work there is this tactic wait until they're on top of you now double tap RT and speed away from them (About 5.0-7.0) do a quick flip and unload a few missiles into them while flying back through them. this should kill them pretty quickly. Mission Part 3 Now the fun begins take out the Warships just to the left of the terraforming unit. Note: theres a battleship in there as well along with a carrier. Note 2: after sinking these ships restock and go behind the terraforming unit you will find another fleet hiding here sink these (if you have managed to survive the whole mission without dying once you will net an achievement by sinking all the warships thoughout this stage approx 25). another important thing to remember is you can't aim at this hidden fleet yet but as soon as you hit one of them you can aim at them. after sinking these your fleet should start running away now you just need to protect and survive (more survive really) -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G--------------------------- Furious Pursuit Badge Awarded for diligently shooting down large numbers of enemy ships. ok this achievement is a hard one you will need to shoot down 25 Warships and 120 warplanes (might be less but this is what I got it on) and the rank isn't important I got it with an A rank. So for this, just shoot everything down until you get to part 3 then go for the Warships first on the left (don't forget the AA frigits) go restock then fly behind the terraforming unit to find another 4 warships sink these then go and kill everything else and you should get it. a word of warning be careful near the warships if you die here you will need to start again from part 1. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 10: Traces of the Nightmare [is10] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Shoot down Magras -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy all enemies 2. Defeat Magras in a short time 3. Defeat Magras without taking any hull damage -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 The same as with the guilty roses fly through them firing missiles then quick flip and repeat. Using this method you'll take out Margras without even thinking. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 30G--------------------------- Solo Aerospace Combat Award Awarded for descending into the atmosphere and engaging in combat alone. This is an easy one the trick to this will be to fly through them so that they will all bunch up do a quick flip and shoot them down with as many missiles as you can lock on to them as you fly back through them. Fly backwards and forwards until you take Magras down by then you should have shot down enough. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 11: Flaming Clouds [is11] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Protect the useless Acropolis -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Defeat the Guilty Roses 2. Defeat the Guilty Roses in a short time Mission part 2 3. Destroy the enemy Carrier hidden in the clouds (to the left of the fleet) 4. Destroy all the fighters that take off from the carrier -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Another protect mission. ok same as always take them out while they're in formation. at some point the Guilty roses appear (Details on this below) just leave them for now becasue on this mission you will either run out of time or the Acropolis is shot down so go for mission targets and go for the achievement when you've got some better weapons. Mission Part 2 for a quick win take out just the mission targets. it doesn't matter which you attack first just take them out. as you start to the left of the fleet hidden in the clouds is a carrier sink it if you wish. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 30G-------------------------- Operation Nebula Blaze Award Awarded for fulfilling duty and fighting bravely in this difficult operation. basically you just need to survive, which is easier said than done. on the first play through. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G-------------------------- Guilty Roses Patch Awarded for repelling the enemy Guilty Roses Squadron. Destroy the Guilty Roses on this level to get this achievement. They will appear right after the radio message "what is an enemy carrier doing here?” This one can be tricky because the Acropolis sinks on this level quite easy and going after the Guilty roses can result in either a time up or the Acropolis sinks. so if you have time to take them down do so if not do it on a later play through. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 12: Impending Chaos [is12] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Sink the Super Battleship (along with its escort fleet) -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. sink the 2nd Super Battleship (details below) 2. Destroy all enemies 3. All allied ships survive -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 For an easy win take out the Super Battleship then take out the second one, so two kills mission complete. if you take out the fleet first the second Super Battleship won't appear so its your call. once again don't worry to much about the figthers unless you fancy some target practice. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 30G-------------------------- Super Battleship Slayer Patch Awarded for shooting down the second S battleship supporting the enemy fleet. For this you need to be quick I recommend doing this later when you have some better anti Warship missiles. but when you do you need to belt it to the S battleship and sink it, forget about everything else. As soon as you do that they will praise you then a new one will jump out. Now sink this one and you're done. simple no? (good luck...) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Stage 13: Beam of Doom [is13] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -------------- Main objective -------------- Another survives until you can leg it mission. -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission Part 1 1. Destroy the Hellfire’s 2. Destroy the Hellfire’s in a short time 3. Destroy all enemies 4. All allied ships survived. -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 you will start this mission right behind the Pandora (you will need to protect this ship) ok so on this mission its a bit of a free for all just go kill what you want but remember to keep an eye on the yellow targets life and just survive. the hellfires will appear for the last time in this mission just before the Pandora jumps out killing them will net you the achievement. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G-------------------------- TCAF Terra Medal Awarded for shielding the fleet to allow its safe escape. This is easy just listen to the radio messages and follow the yellow markers. kill everything near the yellow targets (killing the fleet helps allot) -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G-------------------------- Hellfire’s Patch Awarded for repelling the enemy Hellfire Squadron. Goodbye Wayne muahahaha. yea anyway this lot will appear just before the first ship jumps so when they appear go after them because the ship you're protecting is now safe (or will be in about 10 seconds). =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Stage 14: Two of Destiny [is14] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -------------- Main objective -------------- Defeat all mission targets (everything) -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy the Night Ravens in a short time (same as before fly through quick flip shoot and repeat) Mission part 2 2. Defeat Magras in a short time 3. Take no hull Damage (wait for him to charge you then fire a anti warship missile) -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 another mission with just you and the night ravens YAY! ok same as before do the advance fire quick flip repeat. Mission Part 2 now its a one on one the best way to kill him is to wait for him to charge at you then unload a few anti warship rockets into him the Cauldrons do a good job -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G-------------------------- Night Ravens Patch Awarded for challenging and eradicating the enemy Night Raven Squadron. The easiest way to get this is to do it on hard because you get an S rank on it without getting any subjective. Note on Easy and Normal it appears that you can only get a Max rank of an A (well I could only get that) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Stage 15: Into the Light [is15] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -------------- Main objective -------------- Part one Survive (kill everything) Part two Sink both Super Battleships -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy the S Battleship 2. Destroy Enemy Escort 3. Destroy All Enemies Mission part 2 4. Both Escort Destroyers Survive 5. Allied battleship survived 6. Battleship escort survived -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 Head for the Super Battleship this is your first target it location should be right in front of you about. Once you've taken this out focus on the other battleships (one's near the Acropolis) don't forget to take out any figthers along the way. After this just keep restocking and taking out the warships and figthers until you get a mission update. Mission Part 2 ITs time to meet the hardest normal enemies in the game they can be harder to then the night ravens. The best thing to do here is to just ignore everything and take out the two super battleships and missions complete. -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G--------------------------- Solar System Defence Award Awarded for great achievement during the campaign to defend the Solar System. For this you will need to get an S rank nothing else seems to unlock this. The best way to do this is to shoot down/sink the fleet on Part 2 (leave one Super Battleship) then kill as many of the phantoms as you can before any of your felt get shot down. just keep an eye on the Battleship in front of the Super Battleship because this is the one that’s most likely to get sunk. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Stage 16: Lonely Blue Planet [is16] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -------------- Main objective -------------- Destroy the core The quickest way to do this is to fire 3 anti warship missiles at the defence weapon then get into range of the core and hold triangle for a fully changed 1 attack. this should take it out before the weapon recharges. -------------- Sub objectives -------------- Mission part 1 1. Destroy The defence Weapon Have fun with this because its hard people have said that the Grav gun fully charged will kill it but I've never tried. -------------- Walkthrough -------------- Mission Part 1 I hate this mission! ok you need to take out the defence weapon (the target thats not the mission target) just hit it with 2-3 anti-warship rockets. once it shuts down you have about 7 seconds to hit the core just do a fully charged 1 attack that should kill it. Note try not to get hit by the spinning thing around the core or the defence weapons wings. and have fun congrats you finished the game C'ya on the second playthrough :D -----------------------------Achievement Unlocked 40G--------------------------- Special Operations Medal Awarded for heroism in destroying the enemy's main weapon. Just complete the level simple enough. ############################################################################### Extra stages [iex] ############################################################################### Good old Square Enix if you have finished the first 16 levels and fancies some more action on the marketplace there is some DLC which gives you some extra missions and a leader board YAY! to unlock each level you need to complete the one before it there not too hard if you know your weapons. oh a word of warning you can take all your weapons with you, you are restricted to a select few so head over to the hanger before you fly off. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Time Attack: [ie1] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Now I like this Level and I wish there were one of these in the actual game. ok well basically the mission is to protect the good old Acropolis and destroy all the enemy fighters in the given time. ok sounds east but there’s a catch you are blind!! yes that’s right you're flying in a giant dust cloud in space so you can't see a thing... ok you have night vision but still. if that wasn't enough they're enemy carriers floating around and your radar is next to useless in the clouds so you need to hunt them out by the direction of the fighters. well good luck. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Score Attack: [ie2] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ok i'm yet to complete this myself my current tactics don't seem to work on this level. Basically there just too many things to kill and you havn't got enough fire power to take it all down. well the main problem lies with keeping the Acropolis alive i seem to get to about the 5th Superbattle ship then boom game over. ok my best advice for this is to protect the Acropolis at all cost try to take out any warships near by and take out any figthers as well and most importantly good luck. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Extra 1: [ie3] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Coming soon... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Extra 2: [ie4] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Coming soon... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Extra 3: [ie5] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Coming soon... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Extra 4: [ie6] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Coming soon... ############################################################################## Other Achievements [iav] ############################################################################## These Extra achievements can be acquired after a few play through. 3 of these achievements will require about another 12 flythrough details below. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 1,000 Units Destroyed Medal: [ioa1] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Awarded for shooting down 1,000 enemy fighters and attackers in space combat. this can be achieved in the first play through but it more likely you will unlock this after the first few levels of your second play through. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 10,000 Units Destroyed Medal: [ioa2] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Awarded for shooting down 10,000 enemy fighters and attackers in space combat. the same as above but this will require about 7-10 flythrough to achieve this. to acquire this quickly you will need a missile system with a large amount of lock on's and you will need to take out everything on each level by doing this you can get almost 2000 warplanes per play through. Stage 15 is a good level for this because the Phantoms just keep coming so if you leave the last Super Battleship you can keep killing phantoms until your allies sink it. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ship Hunter Award [ioa3] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Awarded for shooting down 100 warships in space combat. This is an easy achievement to get and you will probably get this before stage 13 on the first play through. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Gigaton Club Patch: [ioa4# =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Awarded for downing several enemy vessels with a combined weight of one gigaton. I like the work Several in there... they should change that to several Thousand. Now this achievement is just plain stupid I’ll give you an idea of what you need to do 1 Gigaton is 1000 Megatons, which is 100,000 Kilotons, which is 1,000,000,000 tons ok now you understand that 1 Warplane is about 30 tons. each destroyer. is about 10 kilotons and each Super Battleship is about a Megaton. ok now that you can picture that this will take about 12 flythrough and sinking EVERY Warship. at the time of writing this I had 600 Mega tons and I was at the end of the 8th play through. yea this was is for when you’re bored. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Weapon Lord Patch [ioa5] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Awarded for collecting all usable equipment for the Delta Saber. Another easy one this will take maybe about 3 flythrough (2 if you do them both on hard) Just basically play through until you get enough points not much more I can say really other than doing it on hard gets you more points per level. note once you buy the last item you don't get the achievement you must complete the next mission first. some weapons cannot be brought but won instead I don't know what unlocks what but after playing through on hard mode it unlocked everything... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- TCAF Pilot's Commendation: [ioa6] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Awarded to the greatest pilots in the TCAF. For the greatest pilots in the TCAF ok cool but to get this one you need to get 100% completion. ok that doesn't sound so bad apart from medal count towards it. ok so to get 100% you need to S rank every mission just once on any difficultly. Next you need to get all the other achievements and then after you pass out from boredom you get it. ############################################################################### Weapons ############################################################################### One thing I like about this game is the vast amount of weapons you can use and the fact there are many great combinations you can use to get the job done. But the best part about it is after you find just 2 weapons you like theres really no reason to change them if you don't want to. I've listed the weapons by type and then give details onthe Mount/Hard point. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Gun [iwe1] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Gun's what more can I tell you about this wonderful things other than they shoot bullets. ok there more to it than that this type of weapon is probably the most useful if used in skilled hands for taking out the figther with 25% health. Some Things to remember with guns is that they take time to hit the enemy so you need to learn how to use the preditive path. Also remember than Guns are weak, have a short range and eat up alot of Ammo fast my best advice is to try all of them to see which fits your style best and if this isn't your thing theres always laser and beam weapons. Also note that Gun type weapons Mount on the nose of the ship, well with one execption (Flail GP37) ------------------------------------ Light Machine Gun MG1 ------------------------------------ A Standard TCAF Light Machine Gun. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: D Weight Class: Light Damage: E Ammo Capacity: 3000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Light Swivel Machine Gun MG2H ------------------------------------ Same as the MG1 with a few improvements, most importantly sight homing. this is better than the MG1 with better range and accuracy but has a lower firing rate. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: D Weight Class: Light Damage: E Ammo Capacity: 2250 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Heavy Machine Gun MG3 ------------------------------------ Another Mod of the MG1 but this time it packs more of a punch. its basically the MG2 without the sight homing Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: D Weight Class: Light Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 2250 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Heavy Swivel Machine Gun MG5H ------------------------------------ This is just the MG2 with a short range but more power, to be honest stick with the MG2 if you want to use this. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: E Weight Class: Light Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 1500 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Broad Sword SG1 ------------------------------------ Now I like this gun its a bit like a big shot gun quite useful but I personally didn't use this weapon for more than one mission, I prefer a machine gun. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: E Weight Class: Light Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 200 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Swing Sword SG2H ------------------------------------ Now this thing is a beast its a really useful SG1 now with the sight homing in close combat using the pad lock you can take figthers out very quickly. this has to be one of my favorite nose weapons Shame it lacks range and power. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: E Weight Class: Light Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 200 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Twin Sword SG3II ------------------------------------ This weapon can pack a punch but because its hasn't got sight homing it wasn't very useful. to sum this weapon up quick its a double barrel shotgun with faster firing times but the same ammo capacity so it runs out too quick. shame there wasn't and upgraded one of these. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: E Weight Class: Light Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 200 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Flail GP37 ------------------------------------ Honestly this is useless, well thats no fair its a goos weapon its just mounts in the wrong place. Hard/Mount point: Fore (main weapon 1) Range: C Weight Class: Medium Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 3000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Beam [iwe2] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Beam Weapons are kind of a cross between a laser and a bullet there just laser bullets really... yea ok these weapsons do have some advantages over machine guns and missile systems they do suffer from over heating at times But on the other hand they have a faser realoding time than most of the missiles. give these a try you might like them but personnally there not my thing. ------------------------------------ Stiletto BG1 ------------------------------------ TO be honest I can't see why you would use this over the SG1 but i suppose it has a higher amount of ammo and never overheats (nor does a machine gun) well its your call. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: E Weight Class: Light Damage: E Ammo Capacity: 6000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Dagger BG2 ------------------------------------ Not much improvement over the BG1 but it does fire faster and has a better range and a slight improvment in power but once again if you like beam weapons knock yourself out. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: D Weight Class: Light Damage: E Ammo Capacity: 4000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Rapier BG4H ------------------------------------ This version of the BG1 is a bit better but not much once again it had improved everything but not by much with the added bonus that the "bullets" home in on the target ok that good but due to the lack of range you'd have to be blind not to be able to hit them. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: D Weight Class: Light Damage: E Ammo Capacity: 3000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Pilum BP ------------------------------------ Now this is a nice weapon and its good if you like sharp shooting but apart from that stick with missiles. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: B Weight Class: Light Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 600 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Multi Pike BP ------------------------------------ Now this is basically the same as the Pilum but with everything improved apart from the range which drops a range but once again stick with missiles. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 1200 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/a Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Spear HBP ------------------------------------ Now this is a nice weapon it has a good number of lock ones but no overlaps but with its decent ammo you can take out alot of figthers within close range. this is one of my weapons of choice but you could pick worse. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: D Weight Class: Medium Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 700 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 14 Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Long Spear HBP ------------------------------------ Basically the Spear HBP but everything is improved. its moves up to the Heavy class there for it moves to the lower mount point. This weapon would be useful but due to its stupid cost you'll have weapons alot better than this by the time you get it. but if you want to use another weapon that mounts to the Fore then this weapon will certainly fill the gap. Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 1500 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 60 Lock on Overlap: Available ------------------------------------ Gray Head T76H ------------------------------------ This ones a werid on and I personnaly don't like it. This weapon pack a hell of a punch and has perfect range but it take a moment to charge and to use it on warships you need to take out the shield gens first. so if you like it use it if not then don't. Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: B Ammo Capacity: 75 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Laser [iwe3] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- It just wouldn't be the future without the the laser weapons now would it. ok well this weapons are just like the machine gun weapons apart form they overheat. The best thing about these are you don't need to aim infront of the enemy to hit them you just aim at them because its a light based weapon it basically an instant hit. ------------------------------------ Saber LG1 ------------------------------------ This is a good weapon can take out enemy figther quite quickly with this. but due to its lack of a sight homing it not that great. has alot of ammo though Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: C Weight Class: Light Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 150 seconds Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Twin Saber LG2H ------------------------------------ now this is my nose weapon of choice it doesn't have as much ammo as the LG1 but its more than enough to keep you going for a whole mission. Also with the added ablity of the sight homing this can be useful for taking out those random figthers with hardly any life. Hard/Mount point: Nose Range: C Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 60 seconds Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Needle L1GP ------------------------------------ This laser weapon has a great range and reasonable power but due to its lack of ammo and not real sight homing or lock on ablitiy it doesn't serve much purpose in fast paced combat. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: B Weight Class: Light Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 50 seconds Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Fire Arrow L2GP ------------------------------------ Now if this weapon wasn't mounted at the Rear it would be amazing. it has a range of A! but a damage of C which is a shame but with its 112 seconds of ammo who really care this is great for sharp shooting those lonely figthers. Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: A Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 112 seconds Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Multipurpose Missiles [iwe4] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The classic weapon and certainly the best for taking out a larger number of enemies in a very short time. This class Doesn't vary much in the damage department and there all pretty weak, which means on the harder setting you'll need to hit the target with a fair few number of these to kill them. So for this class I recommend the ones with the highest lock on count for max damage. ------------------------------------ Falcon 9AM ------------------------------------ A very useful weapon early in the game with its 12 lock ons and its speed it makes it useful for taking out enemies on formation quickly. Its a bit weak and its reload time isn't great but give it a try. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: D Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 300 Speed: A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 12 Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Buzzard 10AM ------------------------------------ The Buzzard was my weapon of choice for a while mainly because of its 22 lock on's and lock on overlap. It lacks in the damage department but as with the Falcon its a great weapon early in the game. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 600 Speed: A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 22 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ Hawk 75AM ------------------------------------ This is an intresting weapon it as an A range and its stronger than the Buzzard but its heavier than the Buzzard and has less ammo and lock on's I honestly I can't see the advantage of this. But if you prefer Range over power and lock on's go for it. But I suppose this does mount at the Rear but its not a very good anti ship weapon. Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 144 Speed: A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 12 Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Condor 105AM ------------------------------------ Now this is my weapon of choice due to the fact it has a massive lock on count and a great ammo Capacity this can take out a whole formation of enemy figthers in a single hit. ok it lacks in power and range but when you hit a target with 3-7 missiles its doesn't matter. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 100 Speed: A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 60 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ Eagle 120AM ------------------------------------ This was my weapon of choice for a long while mainly because of its improved range, power and ammo. But with only 16 lock on's it fails to be an improvement over the Condor. Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: B Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 240 Speed: A Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 16 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ Thrush 220AM ------------------------------------ Now I found thie useful when used with the Eagle 120AM but you lose your lower mount point for this. its has a massive 40 lock on's and a 1000 ammo capacity with the same range and power as the eagle. The trick to using this is to either have this and have a cannon type weapon at the fore or just this with the eagle by firing the eagles 16 missiles then switch weapon then fire Thrush's missiles makes for a quick body count. Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: B Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 1000 Speed: B Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 40 Lock on Overlap: Yes =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Anti-Ship Missiles [iwe5] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now these all mount at the rear and have pretty much the same damaga rating as the multipurpose missiles but with basically no lock on and low ammo. These weapons are good for sinking shows early in the game but buy a rocket/bomb ASAP. ------------------------------------ Terrier SMH ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: D Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 45 Speed: B Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 4 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ Hound SMH ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: B Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 18 Speed: B Sight Homing: Yes Max lock ons: 4 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ Pointer SM ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: A Ammo Capacity: 9 Speed: B Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 1 Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Piranha T53 ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: B Ammo Capacity: 30 Speed: B Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 4 Lock on Overlap: Yes ------------------------------------ White Shark T53R ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: B Ammo Capacity: 60 Speed: B Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: 2 Lock on Overlap: Yes =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Bomb/Rocket [iwe6] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Now this is my choice of weapon for sinking ships the Cauldron 50 is my favorite but the other do a good job as well. The damage class on these are reasonabe even though some say D the fact they explode and cause a large fire means they do extra damage. Also when used against normal figthers they'll go down in one hit. ------------------------------------ Dart 23 Rocket ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Fore(Main Weapon 1) Range: C Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 600 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Arrow 27 Rocket ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear(Main Weapon 2) Range: D Weight Class: Heavy Damage: D Ammo Capacity: 1500 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ EMP Mine B8E ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: N/A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 15 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Laser Mine B9L ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: N/A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 15 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Cauldron 50 Rocket ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: B Weight Class: Heavy Damage: B Ammo Capacity: 24 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Cluster Mine B10 ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: N/A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 5 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Maelstrom Bomb ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: N/A Weight Class: Heavy Damage: A Ammo Capacity: 5 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Cannon [iwe7] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Cannons, well there basically big guns, some of them in this class are pretty much useless due to the fact they over heat too quickly take forever to reload and don't really cause that much damage. The only really useful ones here are Tomahawk Alpha Rail Gun and the Glaive 120mm Cannon (the Glavie is highly recommened for most missions) ------------------------------------ Tomahawk Alpha Rail Gun ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: C Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 75 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Sling 75KG ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: B Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 150 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Glaive 120MM Cannon ------------------------------------ High recommend due to its fast reload time great ammo Capacity and its reasonable damage rating (plus it doesn't overheat that quickly either) Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: C Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 180 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Arbalest 155KG ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: B Weight Class: Medium Damage: B Ammo Capacity: 30 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Monoceros Long Cannon ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: A Weight Class: Medium Damage: C Ammo Capacity: 150 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Grav Cannon XGS ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Lower (Main Weapon 3) Range: A Weight Class: Medium Damage: A Ammo Capacity: 6 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Special [iwe8] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Next to useless to be honest these things help don't get me wrong but unless you're having some serious trouble with one of the stages the best defence in this game is a good ofence. ------------------------------------ Jamming System ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: 200 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Sheild Doubler ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: 1000 Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Booster ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: N/A Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Fire Control System ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Rear (Main Weapon 2) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: N/A Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Regenerator ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: 20 Seconds Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ------------------------------------ Cartridge Holder ------------------------------------ Hard/Mount point: Fore (Main Weapon 1) Range: N/A Weight Class: Medium Damage: N/A Ammo Capacity: N/A Speed: N/A Sight Homing: No Max lock ons: N/A Lock on Overlap: N/A ############################################################################# FAQ [ifaq] ############################################################################# 1. If I die and restart from the checkpoint does it save my previous progress? Nope. Unfortunately it doesn't so if you die and you want the achievement at the end of the level you will need to start from the start again. annoying I know but it’s just how the game runs. 2. If I skip the level do I still get the level complete achievements? Unfortunately you don't because it gives it you for completing the stage not for progressing the story. 3. How do you shoot down the Super Battleship? These ones tricky the best way I’ve found is to just pound it from the side with anti warship missiles because flying around taking out the shield gen will probably get you shot down. 4. I kill ellan What do I do? forget about her she just gets in the way anyway and it doesn't effect the out come of the missions unless you want an S rank 5. After clearing the game what do you keep? Everything which is a good thing really. 6. can I use stage select to increase my kill count or get achievements? Sorry no all achievements but be obtained in story mode. ############################################################################# Disclaimer ############################################################################# Copyright 2007, Andrew Cashmore AKA Avenyet All Right Reserved This guide was written by me and only me for personal use by anyone who wants.
