Your desired place is at the other side of the Walkthrough. No need to worry. Here's how to get there quickly~ 1. Highlight your desired location from the Table of Contents (preferably the episode and the sub-title). (NO '~' included!) 2. Press Ctrl + C 3. Press Ctrl + F 4. Press Ctrl + V 5. Press Enter *If you're wondering why the weird titles? Well, I named those section after the titles of the episodes of the series. Here's the names: E1: The Phantom Meance (Legal Meance) E2: Attack of Clones (Attack of History, lame...) E3: Circle of Force (not sure about the title... Controls of the Force) E4: A New Hope (A New Walkthrough) E5: The Empire Strikes Back (Gold Medal Strikes Back) E6: Return of the Jedi (Strategies of the Jedi) E7: don't know, just made up (Ships Reborn) E8: don't know either (Jedi's Secrets) E9: dunno (End of the Trilogy) ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~PREQUEL: THE LEGENDARY LEGEND ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yes, I wrote for a game that's a part of THE legendary Star Wars. I know, I know... 'But there's PLENTY of guides out there already!', "The game is OLD!, you old mutt!' I don't care. This game, in my opinion, ranks among the top 10 list of my favorite games. MY favorite games, NOT yours. We all have our right for an opinion. :) After seeing the guides on GameFAQs... some are very descriptive, very organized and some could've have waken the dead and killed them again. I'm not pointing to anybody, but ALL of them could've been better. Most of them looks like a half-assed attempt. That's why I decided to make a... ULTIMATE STAR WARS WALKTHROUGH! Corny, no? I don't care either way. I wanted to make a guide that had all of the tips for everything and be able to show you CLEARLY what to do. I added something that is a FIRST in the Star Wars guides: a text map. While it may not be clear and concise as the .gif or .jpg maps, it will help the readers. You probably would say I am a pathetic little FAQ writer, after seeing how big the KB is, compared to the other FAQs currently up on GameFAQs. This FAQ is twice or thrice as big as some of the full FAQ/Walkthrough up! FAQ writers will probably bad-mouth me for putting in filler that increases the KB count so I can get to the honorable profilic list. I assure you, this document does not contain any unneeded information. The maps and the descriptive Walkthrough for the main missions and the Gold Medals are to blame. Thank you and enjoy! ***P.S. If you really think this is a filler-filled guide, tell where the filler is! There's no story section, no stupid challenges thing, no long FAQ, no unrequired information! Maybe this section, then! ^_^*** ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~EPISODE I: THE LEGAL MENACE ---==X***~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This document is copyright 2003 Martin Dale-Hench.

Enjoy! ==================================================================== | TATOOINE TRAINING | | Episode N/A | | Training Mission | ==================================================================== This level is straightforward but you must completed it in _4_ times of the day to get the secret ship, the Naboo Starfighter. You have to find everything plus 2 secret items and complete all of the objective to complete that time of the day. You have to do it all in 20 minutes. I'm going to be as straightforward with this as possible because I know people hate to look through some bullshit for a single item. You can get them all IN ANY ORDER! Here we go with some basics: The Time Zones: 0:00-5:59 6:00-11:59 12:00-17:59 18:00-23:59 You can beat them all in a few hours by changing your clock in the Gamecube. Simple as that. +=~=~=~=~=~+ =OBJECTIVES= +=~=~=~=~=~+ -Find all discovery items -Finish all 12 challenges -Finish all 3 womp rats challenge (20, 40, 60) -Finish 1st in all FOUR races (2 in Beggar's Canyon and Tosche) -Find all two secret discovery items (unique for each time of the day) +~=~=~=~=~+ =RACES= +~=~=~=~=~+ There are two starting points in the Tatooine Training races. However, there are four races that you must complete. The starting point is to the left of your starting point of the mission, out in the desert. The other one is in the canyon, the Beggar's Canyon. The canyon is surronded by the challenge icons soyou should be able to find it easily. The icons for the races are blue... The Beggar's Canyon has two tracks... one to the left and one to the right. The track to the right is pretty easy, you just have to hug the wall to the right all of the way to the end. You can't really lose. The left track is very tricky... When you see the place where you have 3 options... take the middle or left one and follow the path until you see a path to the right, DEAD right. Take that path and head left to complete the race. The Tosche Station is incredibly easy... You just use your boosts ASAP while touching the icons. You should just BARELY touch the icon to decrease your time. Beat it twice to fulfill the objective. +~=~=~=~=~+ =WOMP RATS= +~=~=~=~=~+ Having a hard time on the 60-kill objective? Here's a trick: just go around the Womp Rats twice before touching the icon so the Rats will herd into a big group. This way, you can shoot them without reaching out to distant rats. You can EASILY reach the 60-kill mark this way. I've killed 100 of them once! +~=~=~=~=~=~=+ =SECRET ITEMS= +~=~=~=~=~=~=+ Each time of the day has it owen secret items. They are: 0:00-5:59: Kraayt Dragon; C3PO 6:00-11:59: Kraayt Dragon; Escape Pod 12:00-17:59: Kraayt Dragon; C3PO 18:00-23:59: Kraayt Dragon; R2 Refer to the map for the locations. +=~=~=~=~=~+ =MAP= +=~=~=~=~=~+ ****** LEGEND ****** •---Challenge S---Starting Point R---Starting Point of Race 2---R2/Sandcrawler K---Krayt Dragon D---Dewback T---TIE Fighter B---Bantha Herd E---Escape Pod J---Jabba's Palace 3---3CPO (inside the Palace) #---Tosche Station --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | |______ _________________ __________D____ 2 | | \ \ / / \ | | \ \ \_/ | | | \ \ | • | | \ \ W | | | \ \ T _ | K | | \ \ _/ \ | | | --- / B/ | | | _/ / | B | | |__ / | | |------------ \ \ | • | | B \ \/ | • | | / _____ / • | |------------ | | __ / | | R | JJ | /•/ / ___ • | | _____| JJ / / / / | R | | | / 3/ / / / | | • | | / / / / / | | • | | / _________/ / / / | | •______ ___ | | \ \ / / / | |___| __ | | | | | \ \_________/ / / | | | | | | | | | \ / / | | | | \\ | | | | | | \_______ / • / | |___| ______| | | | | \_\ / | | | | __ D | | | | / | \ | |_| |____| | | | S / • | \ |____|______ | | | _____/ | \ | / | | ## E D • • B | \ \____________/ / | | ## | \ ______ / | | 2 \_________________/ B | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Remember, complete: -ALL 12 challenges (•) -Find all items (Various letters: D, T, B, J) -Find both secret items: (Depends on your time of day) -Finish all 4 races in 2 locations(R) -Kill at least 60 Womp Rats If you do all of this in one run (20 minutes), you've completed the Training for that time of day.

I really, really enjoyed this game so I decided to write a guide for this. I know there's 100 FAQs for this on GameFAQs and y'all don't need another one... but that's why I decided to try to write a 'ultimate FAQ' that will have more material and more help than any other FAQ for this Star Wars game. Hope you truly find this guide helpful! Let's go ahead to the first level! ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Destroy all deflection towers (10) 2. Destroy all TIE Fighters (23?) 3. Shoot Proton Torpedoes into the exhaust port (1) After a cutscene, you will be told to destroy all deflection towers stationed on the Death Star. This is an ample task for a beginner, if you are one. All you have to do is look for a big tower and shoot it until it is destroyed. Easy said, easy done. There are 10 of them, just take your time and brake when you see one and shoot. Keep your squadron together, though. You don't have to release them yet. Never mind the gun turrets that are located on the surface. Just practice around with the controls and get 'comfortable' with the targeting. After you've destroyed all 10 towers, you will meet an cutscene. *~*Completed Objective 1: Destroy all deflection towers*~* Now your first REAL battle will proceed! This portion of the level is pretty fun, but not the funnest. This part of the level is an excellent chance to gauge and practice your skills. You have to locate and shoot down all of the TIEs that hover around you. The TIEs WILL try to shoot at you so move around fairly quickly. Since there are squadron of TIEs, send your wingmen to attack the TIEs indivdiually. Now, find a squadron of TIEs and follow it (if you can). TRY to shoot the TIEs that are following the leader. If you've read my FAQ, you would know why. Make sure you don't kill the leader before you kill all of the 'followers' or the TIEs will break up. Be calm and shoot where your target are GOING to be at, not where it IS. If you took a long time to kill some of the TIEs, don't worry. If you sent your wingmen, some of the TIEs are already down. The TIEs here are pretty dumb so you shouldn't have any trouble shooting them down. If you're having some difficulty locating the TIEs, just press Y to bring the Targeting Computer up. It will help you miraclously. *~*Completed Objective 2: Destroy all TIE Fighters*~* Now it's the trench war. You know, the famous scene at the end of Episode IV. Everybody remembers it in their hearts and they should! Pure goodness. Anyway, no TIEs will follow you at the start so just concentrate on dodging the barriers. Go SLOWLY! You don't want to waste lives recklessly! I know it's pretty hard at first but you will eventually breeze through this part while SPEEDING! You will! For now, use your brakes and go up and down. Shoot the turrets if you like (counts toward the kill total). After a while, a squadron of TIEs will come behind you. Just speed up and immediately brake! However, during the braking, drop down! The TIEs will comepletely fly above you. Fly back to the TIEs' level and shoot them all down! Another squadron will come... do the same thing. Guess what? Darth Vader will come after you! Just do the same thing (speed, brake and drop) and shoot Vader's ship. It won't go down but he WILL return! When he does, get behind him again and shoot him until he goes away. If you've shot him a lot, Millennium Falcon will come and shoot Vader off! How cool! Now the coast are clear... When you see the end of the trench (just a wall), move your target so it leads to the bottom 1/3 or 1/4. Fire a missile or two. If the missiles hits the bottom part of the wall, you've destroyed the Death Star! Congrats! *~*Completed Objective 3: Shoot Proton Torpedoes into the exhaust port*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Shoot all of the deflection towers (10) 2. Send your wingmen to TIEs 3. Kill all of the TIEs (23?) 4. Dodge the barriers in the trench 5. Kill the squadrons (3) following you -you can kill Vader if you want 6. Shoot a missile (1~2) at the exhaust port +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Objective 1: No map needed Objective 2: Map needed for the Advanced Shields ****** LEGEND ****** A-----Area of the Advanced Shields upgrade T-----Turret (help you find the Advanced Shields better) S-----Starting point (of Objective 2, not the level) ---------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | T T T | | T T T | | T | | T T T | | AA T | | AA | | ^ T | | T / | | / | | T / T T | | / | | / T | | / T T T | | / | | T / T T | | / | | T / T | | SS T | | SS T | | T | | | ---------------------------------------------- Objective 3: No map needed +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Shields The upgrade is one of the most important one in the entire game since you NEED shields to survive AND EVERY ship takes advantage of it. I HIGHLY recommend you to get it immediately. If you look at the map above, you can see where the upgrade is. It's very close to the surface of the Death Star so look closely for it. If you started Objective Two and shot down some of the TIEs down and don't know where you are on the map, just stay down and look for a glittering light next to a turret. Not hard to find. ==================================================================== | ISON CORRIDOR AMBUSH | | Episode IV: A New Hope~Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | | Main Mission #2 | ==================================================================== Ison Corridor Ambush Chips & Bits --------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: X-Wing (can be switched to A-wing) Other possible Aircrafts: Y-Wing, A-wing, B-wing, Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter, Slave 1 Tech Upgrade: Advanced Proton Torpedoes ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----9:30 5:17 4:12 Enemies Destroyed----21 32 40 ----Shot Accuracy----11% 7% 19% --Friendlies Lost----1 3 2 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----10% 27% 72% ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Defend the transport against any remaining Imperial forces 2. At least one transport must survive 3. The frigate Redemption must survive This level is very straightforward... you just kill all enemies as soon as possible. No attached strings, or anything like 'errands' to do. Just protect the big and bulky transporters from the TIEs. The TIEs will come in in squadrons and the squadrons will come in as 3 waves. I would say each wave has 5~6 squadrons with 3 TIEs each. So that would be about 45 TIEs in this level. Too bad you won't kill them all. Immediately send your wingmen to the TIEs and press Y for the Targeting Computer, which will help you a lot. Kill the followers first, then finish off by killing the leader. If you don't like the X-wing or is low on health, you can go to the blue circle (seen on the map) to switch to an A-wing. It's more speeder, which can be useful. After you've (and your wingmen) killed all of the TIEs in the first wave, another one will come... Just do the same thing as before. Just make sure you stay level with the Rebel ships, don't wander down or up. Kill all of the TIEs of the second wave. The third wave will come.... with FOG. Targeting Computer is essential here. So is the radar, use it wisely. Using it will almost automatically locate a squadron of TIEs. There are only 4 squadrons but they are the tough TIE Interceptors. If you're gunning for a medal, then try to use it (Targeting Computer) to the minimum. Since this level is pretty much the same throughout, you shouldn't have any trouble. Remember to shoot and kill fast so the ships won't go down. You have to protect them all. Good luck. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Send your wingmen to TIEs 2. Go after the enemies and kill them all (17?) -change to A-wing (optional) after the first wave 3. Destroy the second wave (14~) 4. Use the Targeting Computer to find the TIEs in the fog and own the third wave. (only 4 squadrons with ~12 TIEs) +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ The map is for all three objectives. ****** LEGEND ****** S---Starting point R---Rebel Transport F---Frigate Redemption (must protect this ship) A---'checkpoint' for the A-wing/X-wing transfer U---sunken ship, where the Upgrade is 1---Approximation of the 1st wave battle 2---Approximation of the 2nd wave battle ~---The area above this symbol contains fog and the third wave ----------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | -- | | |RR| | | |RR| -- | | |RR| |RR| | | -- |RR| | | |RR| | | -- | | | | | | | | | |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222| | |RR| | | |RR| -- | | |RR| |RR| | | -- |RR| | | |RR| | | -- | | UU | | --UU | | |FF| | | |FF| | | |FF| | | AA \ff/ | | AA /ff\ | | |FF| | | -- |FF| | |111111111111RR111111111FF1111111111111111111111| | |RR| -- | | |RR| | | -- | | | | | | | | -- | | |RR| | | |RR| S | | |RR| | | -- | | | | | ----------------------------------------------- +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Proton Torpedoes Meh. The upgrade only grants you stronger Torpedoes. IMO, the missiles are useless until you get the seeker upgrade. But get it since it's so easy to find it. Just go under the Frigate and you should see a broken fragment of a ship. the fragment forms a tunnel and guess what's inside? Yeah, the upgrade! Go through the tunnel to find the upgrade.

One of the most memorable battles in the Star Wars history! Who doesn't like to take down a giant AT-AT with a tiny Speeder??? All I have to say is: have fun! ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Defend the Rebel forces at Outpost Beta 2. Slow the advancing Imperial Walkers (AT-ATs) 3. Defend the fleeing Rebel Transporters You will start with a Speeder and you have to because it's the only aircraft that can take the mammoths, AT-ATs, down. Fly between the mountains, down the valley. You will see some 'probe' droids near the surface of the valley. You can get up close and kill some of them. It's not required to do so, but it's an easy addition to your counter for the Enemies Destroyed column. After you've gotten out of the valley, you will see a lot of people shooting madly at some AT-ST. It's your job to defend them since those people are your allies. Brake and shoot the AT-STs from afar (shoot at the pack of AT-ST to the left). There are 4 of those and they requires some ass-kicking before they explode. Remember, brake to increase your firing time. After you've destroyed all 4, either go left or right. If you went left, destroy the next 3 AT-STs and shoot at the box a Shuttle dropped. An AT-ST will emerge from it. Kill it. Then go back to the Outpost Beta. Shoot the final three AT-STs. Skip the next paragraph. If you went right, kill the 3 AT-STs that are shooting at the people of the Outpost. After that, go left and do the same thing to the pack of AT-STs. Kill the final AT-ST that emerged from the box. Return to the Outpost Beta. *~*Completed Objective 1: Defend the Rebel forces at Outpost Beta*~* Fly all of the way south, to the final three AT-ATs. Ignore the other AT-ATs because it's not required to make them fall down. Now, this part is a bit tricky... You have to go to the legs and press B twice when you're just passing the legs. The screen will change and your hook has been attached to a leg. Now you have to go around the AT-AT 2 and a half times before it falls. This may take some practice... Make sure you go slowly. Haste makes waste. Just be safe. Do the same thing for the other AT-ATs nearby. You should have taken down three of them before a cutscene occurs. I wasn't very clear, was I? *~*Completed Objective 2: Slow the advancing Imperial Walkers*~* The location you will be at after the cutscene is at another valley just past the Power Generator that just got destroyed. Just continue on, shooting some lasers at the probe droid squads (2) for more kills. After that, you will see a 'warp' point. Go to it and you will get off the Speeder to a X-wing! Yay! With the powerful X-wing, you have to destroy all of the incoming TIEs before they destroy all of the transports. After transferring to the X-wing, do a 180 degree turn and look up. There's some TIEs coming. Order your wingmen to go to the TIEs. Try to find the TIE Bombers first, since they do the most damage to the Transports. They look somehow like Darth Vader's ship... and they go in squads of 2 (some 3). Just kill them normally, nothing big. Use the missiles if you have the homing upgrade. Remember, kill them swiftly (use Targeting Computer if you like). After you've killed them all, the Transports will go away to peace... (If my calculations were correct, there are 8 TIE Bombers) *~*Completed Objective 3: Defend the Fleeing Rebel Transports*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Go through the valley and kill the first squad of AT-STs (4). 2. Go left or right for more AT-ST ass-kicking (7 more). 3. Make sure you have killed all of the AT-STs that you may have missed 4. Ignore the AT-ATs except the ones closest to the OTHER base, the Power Generator. 5. Use the Speeder's secondary weapon to bring down the three AT-ATs 6. Go through another valley (2 squads of Probe Droids) 7. Change to X-wing 8. Kill all of the TIE bombers (8) before they destroy all of the transports +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Map is for all 3 objectives ****** LEGEND ****** S---Starting Point #1 2S--Starting Point #2 (after Objective 2- AT-ATs taken down) P---Probe Droid Squad (~6 droids per squad) #---(4, 3, 1) Number of AT-ST in the area that you must destroy A---AT-AT that you don't have to destroy N---AT-ST that you don't have to destroy 3A--The three AT-ATs that you have to tip over X---The warp point for the X-wing R---Rebel Transport OB--Outpost Beta PG--Power Generator EB--Echo Base U---Upgrade (Advanced Blasters) ^---Mountain or rocky area ---------------------------------------------------------------- |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^_________________^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ 1 A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ 3 \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| 4 \_^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| 3 A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| ____ OB __ N \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^\_______/^^\ \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ \^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/P/^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ 3A \^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ \^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/2S/\ \^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^\ \^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^\ \^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/P /^^^^^^|PG \^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^/ U \^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/P /^^^^^^/________/^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^| S |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^|---|^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^/ |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^___| |_______________/P |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^/ R R /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^/ R X ___/^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^| EB/^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^\ R R R /^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^\_____________________/^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| ---------------------------------------------------------------- I want to classify that you're going north from the starting point, towards the AT-ST (marked as numbers). Take out all of the AT-ST that I marked as a number ONLY. Then go southeast to 3A, and take out the AT-ATs. You will have another starting point after that. Just follow the valley to the final area with the TIEs. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Blasters This upgrade is a must-get since every ship have access to the upgrade when you get it. It just ups your lasers' attack power but it's pretty useful in the future battles such as BoE. To get it, just do the mission normally until after you tip over the AT-ATs (second objective done). From your NEW starting point (2S), turn around 180 degrees and go to the remains of the Power Generator. Therein lies the upgrade. Simple enough. ==================================================================== | PRISONS OF THE MAW | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | | Main Mission #4 | ==================================================================== Prisons of the Maw Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: Y-Wing Other possible Aircrafts: none Tech Upgrade: Advanced Cluster Missiles ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----12:15 10:45 9:20 Enemies Destroyed----30 46 63 ----Shot Accuracy----11% 38% 75% --Friendlies Lost----5 3 2 -------Lives Lost----2 2 1 --------------TCE----10% 38% 75% This level is one of my favorites just because it was one of my first golds and it was the easiest. A lot of people I know had a hard time beating the level! I'm not trying to brag, just... never mind ;-) ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Disable three shield projectors 2. Destroy all objectives marked by the prisoners 3. Escort the train to the platform 4. Escort the Imperial Loader out You will be using the Y-wing for the entire mission and don't whine about it. It is required to use the Y-wing because it has the only weapon that can destroy the objectives marked by the prisoners. And this aircraft kicks ass in this level anyway! You will see your aircraft in a vast space with some rocks moving around... Just go straight until you see some TIEs coming. When you see the TIEs, press the Flee Command (D-pad down) and confirm it. Your wingmen will go away and some of the TIEs will follow it, decreasing the pressure on you. Nevertheless, there will still be some TIEs following you. Ignore them and continue (zig-zag to avoid some of the fire from the TIEs), still going straight. The TIEs will back off when you get closer to the shield projectors. The shield itself is two BIG black 'holes' combined. There are 10 projectors in all but you only need to destroy 3 of them. To destroy a shield projector, hold down B until your crossfire target turns blue. Get CLOSE to a projector and shoot the new weapon (Ion Cannon) at the projector. It will go off... do the same thing for 2 other projectors and fly away from the shield because some 'guards' will fire at you. *~*Completed Objective 1: Disable three shield projectors*~* After a short cutscene you will find yourself in a barren wasteland with a few buildings. This piece of land is the Prisons of the Maw. Some prisoners are trapped here but they have fled to a train and they marked several targets for you to destroy so they can flee to a Shuttle. Follow the radar (follow the orange direction) to the north, where some guard towers are firing at you. It is your duty to destroy them all. Just press B to switch to the bombing mode and aim at those guard towers and press B again to bomb them. It's better to fly high because it's easier to bomb more towers in a run that way. There are 6 of them in this area. After that, follow the radar to the northeast. Another six guard towers stops you. Just do the same thing, and remember, if you run out of proton bombs, just fly around and wait for the proton bombs to recharge. It takes about 10 seconds for a proton bomb to recharge. When the prisoners have gotten the weapons, follow the radar to the northeast again. *Note: you may or may not bomb the AT-PTs on the way... it isn't required. It's just a bonus for your kill total. Just letting you know. Now you have to destory the communications towers, not the guard towers. You may destroy the guard towers, but I advise you not to because it wastes proton bombs. Aim at the top of the dishes or at the bases for the maximum damage. 2~3 bombs should take out a dish. Destroy all seven dishes and go all of the way south. *~*Completed Objective 2: Destroy all objectives marked by the prisoners*~* Follow the radar to the platform where the Shuttle is. Kill any AT-PTs on the way if you want to. Again you will see some guard towers surrounding the landing platform. Your job is get the train into the Shuttle safely by killing all of the towers. This time isn't any different so you should know what to do. One, two, three, four, five, and six. Six towers await you. *~*Completed Objective 3: Escort the train to the platform*~* Watch out for the Shuttle because when it takes off you can forget everything that's on ground and stay at the Shuttle's tail. The shuttle goes along very slowly but it doesn't need long before it takes off. Shoot down the TIEs hovering around if you want. When the shuttle goes to the light speed mode, your level is done! Wheee! *~*Completed Objective 4: Escort the Imperial loader out*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Go straight until you see the TIEs 2. Command 'Flee' for your wingmen 3. Avoid the TIE's fire until you're almost at the shield 4. Shoot out the projectors with your Ion Cannon (3) 5. Take out the guard towers at the Prison Building (6) 6. Take out the guard towers at the Weapons Storage Building (6) 7. Destroy all dishes at the Communications Relays (7) 8. Go south to the landing platform and kill off the guard towers (6) 9.

Damn limited characters. You start in the south-western corner and you go north to the Prison Building (PB) and kill the towers there and continue to the next patch of towers. After you've killed two patches of six towers each, go northeast to CR and destroy all the dishes (*) and go all of the way south to the shuttle and destroy another group of towers. Not bad. If you want some extra kills, use my map to find the squads of AT-PTs or just look yourself for them. MAKE SURE you know where the required guard towers are! +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Cluster Missiles I think the upgrade is useless until you get the homing cluster missiles, the best upgrade for the gold-hunting. If you want it NOW, okay... here's how. If you look at my miserable map, you can find the U just north of the center. It is actually IN the platform, not next to it. You have to destroy the platform to reveal it. You can bomb or shoot at it. When the right platform's destroyed, just scoop down to the upgrade to pick it up. Best accessible: after you destroy the first 12 guard towers and going to the communications towers. ==================================================================== | RAZOR RENDEZVOUS | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | | Main Mission #5 | ==================================================================== Razor Rendezvous Chips & Bits ----------------------------- Starting Aircraft: B-wing Other possible Aircrafts: X-wing, Y-wing, A-wing, Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter, Slave 1 Tech Upgrade: Advanced Proton Bombs ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----4:30 2:59 1:19 Enemies Destroyed----10 10 10 ----Shot Accuracy----8% 20% 60% --Friendlies Lost----4 2 0 -------Lives Lost----2 2 1 --------------TCE----10% 38% 85% The bloodiest battle in the second trilogy's history. Short, but frantic. Prepare to die. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1.Protect the blockade Runner 2.Protect the frigate Redemption 3.Destroy the Imperial Shield Generators 4.Destroy the Imperial Command Deck Although there are four objectives, you can only do two of those IF you're fast enough. This level can take you less than 1 minute if you speed through (I did!). You just have to destroy the generators and crash into the command deck. With your B-wing, just fly all of the way to the Star Destroyer (the big-ass pointy ship) and employ your wingmen to the TIEs to lure some of the enemies away. Do NOT go to the Star Destroyer head on, just go left and go to the Star Destroyer's back. From there, little to none lasers will come after you. Now, look up and you should see two spheres on the top... Thats two of the power generators. Press and hold B (like you did in PotW) to turn your weapon to an ion cannon. Shoot an ion at one of the spheres and IMMEDIATELY fire 3~4 missiles at that sphere. Do not WASTE any time. The ion will only stay on the sphere for a few seconds. The sphere should break if you've inflicted enough damage. Do the same thing for the other sphere. Make sure you're coming from the behind so you won't get severe damage. After you've destroyed the spheres, go all of the way to the bottom of the Star Destroyer. Again, power up your ion cannon and shoot at the little round half-circle sticking out of the bottom. Fire about 5 missiles at it when it's blue from the ion. When it's broken, go up to the main deck. All you have to do now is crash into the main command deck. It's in the middle of the deck, it's the only thing that's 'round' or 'smooth'. Instead of explaining to you by word, I'll make a map. OOO OOO OOOOO <--- spheres ---> OOOOO OOO OOO +-------------------------------------------+ | | | | | (==) | | command deck | | | | | +-------------------------------------------+ Yeah, you CRASH your B-wing at this deck. If you crashed at the target, you won't lose ANY lives! Why? The level's already over before you die! That's all for this level. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Employ your wingmen to the TIEs 2. Go behind the Star Destroyer, keep your distance from it 3. Use your ion cannon to disable the generator's shields and destroy them (2 spheres) 4. Do the same thing to the generator underneath 5. Crash into the main deck +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ None needed. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Proton Bombs This upgrade is pretty weak since it only affects the Y-wing's bombs. Oh well. At the beginning, go straight to the far side of the Star Destroyer and look for a white ship. That ship is an Imperial Shuttle and it's trying to escape. Don't let it escape or you will be infected with rabies! No, I'm just kidding. Just shoot at it and destroy it and it'll yield the upgrade. Remember, use the turbo and go past the Star Destroyer and look around. It's not far from the Destroyer. ==================================================================== | VENEGEANCE ON KOTHLIS | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | | Main Mission #6 | ==================================================================== Venegeance on Kothlis Chips & Bits ---------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: X-wing (switch to Speeder and Y-wing) Other possible Aircrafts: Y-wing, A-wing, B-wing, Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter, Slave 1 Tech Upgrade: Advanced Homing Proton Torpedoes ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----13:00 11:30 9:55 Enemies Destroyed----45 75 100 ----Shot Accuracy----7% 14% 27% --Friendlies Lost----4 3 2 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----12% 42% 85% A long, long mission indeed. You will have to switch to a new craft TWICE in this mission... First, you will switch to a Speeder because you have to take down some AT-ATs. After that, some AT-PTs will come out of the water so you will have to switch to a Y-wing for its bombs. Pretty fun, if you ask me. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1.Protect the transport from the TIEs (28) 2.Destroy all AT-ATs (3) 3.Defend the commandos as they recapture the data 4.Destroy all AT-PTs (2 waves) 5.Bomb a hole in the Star Destroyer for the commandos The first part contains some dogfights with some TIE Interceptors and Fighters, but you have to stick close to the white transport or it may explode, thus failing the mission. Mind the TIEs that come from the flank... There are A LOT of TIEs so send your wingmen to the TIEs or you'll have a butt-load of TIEs to kill. I believe there are about 25~30 of them... Yeah, there's a lot. If you're good enough, you and your wingmen should have destroyed all of them before the transport goes right. Still, stay close to the transport in case some TIEs come in late. If you want, you can shoot some lasers at the turrets on the Star Destroyer but I highly advise you to stay away from the Star Destroyer because the turrets can pick you apart if you go close. When the transport lands safely, a cutscene will occur... *~*Completed Objective 1: Protect the transport from the TIEs*~* Go to the blue icon and switch to the Speeder. Go to the CLOSEST AT-AT since you have more leg room to move around and use the cable to befall it. Also, while you're circling the AT-AT, the other AT-ATs will move closer to the shore, therefore gaining more leg room for you! Destroy all three AT-ATs and another icon will appear. *~*Completed Objective 2: Destroy all AT-ATs*~* Now you're in your final ship: the Y-wing. The commandos are out of the transport and it is your duty to make sure they are still alive when they reach the Star Destroyer. In your Y-wing, go straight to where the Star Destroyer crashed (the front part). Drop a few bombs (3~5) down to the sand and the sides of the front part to kill some turrets that will hunt the commandos down. After that, fly to the elevated part of the front part of the Star Destroyer. That's the weak point where you have to bomb to make a hole. Make sure you drop directly at the middle of the elevated platform. It may take you 7-9 bombs to make a good hole, depending on where you dropped your bombs. You'll know if you have opened the hole if there's a check next to objective 5 in the pause screen. (You can see where the hole is supposed to be by looking through the Targeting Computer... it's the yellow block on the ship) *~*Completed Objective 5: Bomb a hole in the Star Destroyer for the commandos*~* Now with an objective OUT of your way, QUICKLY return to the place where the befallen AT-ATs are. Now there are AT-PTs swarming all over the place! Most of them are probably underwater, but you can use your bombs to destroy them underwater! The bomb pierces through the water and destroys the AT-PTs with ease. Try to take out as many AT-PTs you can in one run and turn around and make an another run at it. Remember, the bombs can recharge so be patient and wait for the bombs to return if your bomb supply is low. Don't let the AT-PTs on or near the beach any further because they can really damage the number of the commandos. There are TWO waves of AT-PTs so when it seems that you've killed all of the AT-PTs, just go around the hole and kill some turrets to help the commandos out. But don't wander around too long. Make sure, you go back for the second wave of AT-PTs. Again, just bomb through the water to destroy them. Some TIEs may chase after you... just ignore them (you may command your wingmen to go after them). *~*Completed Objective 4: Destroy all AT-PTs*~* After you've destroyed all of the AT-PTs (will hear someone telling you that you have), go back to the commandos and give them some help if they need it. Don't kill THE commandos, tho! Friendly fire is a bad, bad thing! Just protect the commandos until they get into the hole. By the way, if you haven't bombed a hole in the Destroyer, do so immediately. After that, the level's pretty much done. *~*Completed Objective 3: Defend the Commandos as they recapture the data*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Protect the transport and kill all of the TIEs (send your wingmen to the TIEs)(28 TIEs) 2. Change to the Speeder 3. Tip over the AT-ATs (3) 4. Chnage again to Y-wing 5. Kill some turrets near the crash point 6. Bomb a hole in the Star Destroyer 7. Destroy the first wave of AT-PTs 8. Help the commandos out a bit then return to the AT-PTs 9.

Then go back to 'Y' and clear the path for the commandos. The bomb the hole (()) and go to the area in the #### for the AT-PTs. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Homing Proton Torpedoes One of the best upgrades all around. When you pick this up, the missiles FINALLY becomes useful! To get it, kill all of the TIEs quickly and go to the back side of the Star Destroyer. Don't go to the side, you'll be maimed by the lasers, just go to the back side. The command deck is destroyed and has a hole through it. You can fly through that hole... and guess what's inside? Yeah, the homing upgrade. You can still get it as a Y-wing if you missed it as the original ship. I've heard that it is possible as a Speeder but I'd recommend getting it as a X-wing or Y-wing. ==================================================================== | IMPERIAL ACADEMY HEIST | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back~ Episode VI: Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #7 | ==================================================================== Imperial Academy Heist Chips & Bits ----------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: Speeder (Night), Y-wing (Day) Other possible Aircrafts: none Tech Upgrade: Advanced Concussion Missiles ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----7:20 6:05 4:12 Enemies Destroyed----15 29 51 ----Shot Accuracy----7% 25% 49% --Friendlies Lost----0 0 0 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----15% 45% 100% This mission can be played in TWO ways: day and night. If you're playing in the daytime clock, you're going to use the Y-wing. For the nightime mode, yo're going to use a Speeder. IMO, daytime is easier... If you want to play on daytime or nightime, but you're on the wrong side... just turn off the Gamecube and turn it on again and HOLD A to get to the 'options' menu. Go to the clock and change the clock to whatever you want. 6 A.M. to 5:59 PM is day-time and 6 P.M. to 5:59 A.M. is night-time. Got it? Good. Also, only one objective will be different between day and night. After you pass the first objective, everything's all the same. Note: stealing the TIE fighters has a purpose: going to the Academy without anyone shooting at you. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. (Day) Disable the Imperial sensors in the canyons 1. (Night) Evade the Imperial sensors in the canyons 2. Steal an Imperial Shuttle 3.Meet at the rendezvous point --- DAY --- As a Y-wing, you have the power to disable the sensors that will try to detect their enemies. You, for one, are one of them. You don't use the bombs to destroy them. They would find you by the time you destory them all. You just use your trusty Ion Cannon to DISABLE! DISABLE! Not destroy! Just press and hold B until the crossfires are blue. Then aim at the base of a sensor and let go. You can disable it by hitting the head but it's easier if you aim at the base. There are eight sensors in all and some of them are 'behind' a wall so be careful and proceed slowly. You will come upon a fork. I recommend you to go to the left since it's easier (at least for me). If you go to the left, you go straight to the Academy. If you go to the right, you will see some parked TIEs on some platforms. I recommend you use the bombs to destroy the defenseless TIEs. Continue following the path to the Academy. Note: you can steal the TIE fighter by going to a small valley with a lone TIE and kill the pilot. *~*Completed Objective 1: Disable the Imperial Sensors in the Canyons*~* Skip to the Academy portion of the Walkthrough. ----- NIGHT ----- In your speedy Speeder, STAY LOW! The speeder has little to no chance of crashing to the floor so don't worry. Stay low throughout the canyon portion and stay away from the sensors! Simple enough... if you stay low! If you took the right fork, you will see some AT-ATs and TIEs around. Ignore them, don't tie them up. Just go straight to the Academy. If you took the left side, be on lookout because you have to find a TIE fighter but don't destroy it! DO NOT destroy it! Just look for a pilot... If you find him, kill him (yea, the SMALL human) and an icon will come up. Touch it to transfer to the TIE fighter. Fly to the Academy. *~*Completed Objective 1: Evade the Imperial Sensors in the Canyons*~* ------- ACADEMY ------- From either fork and either time, you have the same objective: steal the Imperial Shuttle. Before that, go to the turrets that surround the Shuttle and the icon (in the back end of the Academy). If you don't destroy them they will destroy the Shuttle. Take your time killing all eight turrets (2 at each corner). When you're done with that, touch the icon to steal the Shuttle. *~*Completed Objective 2: Steal an Imperial Shuttle*~* All you have to do is go back to the mountains and find the rendezvous point. Follow the radar to the right. A lot of TIEs will chase you so zig-zag to avoid some of the fire... Also, you can shoot from the behind so do that! (Press A) You can fly over the peaks of the mountains or just go through the valleys to the rendezvous point. *~*Completed Objective 3: Meet at the rendezvous point*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Day: Disable all of the sensors (use Ion Cannon) Night: Avoid the sensors by laying low 2. Choose a path on the fork 3. Go straight to the Academy (can steal TIE Fighter, kill some TIEs if you want) 4. Shoot out the turrets around the shuttle 5. Steal the shuttle 6. Go south to the rendezvous point +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Map is for all objectives, day or night. ****** LEGEND ****** S---Starting point .---Imperial sensor OO--platforms with TIEs D---satellite dish I---Imperial Shuttle X---Rendezvous point ~---mountains/hills TN--TIE at night TD--TIE at Day UN--Upgrade at Night (Advanced Spread Proton Bombs) UD--Upgrade at Day (Advanced Concussion Missiles) ------------------------------------------------------- |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~ I ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~ \\\ | /// ~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ \\\ | /// ~~~~| |~~~~~~ UN-----|-----UD ~~~~| |~~~~~~ /// | \\\ ~~~~| |~~~~~~ /// | \\\ ~~~~| |~~~~~~~ ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~ ~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ OO ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~TN ~~~~~~~~ ~ ~~D OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~ ~~~~~OO D~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~| |~~~~~ X ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~ | |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ D TD ~~| |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~ ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~. . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ .~~ .~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~. ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~. . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ . ~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ S | |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ------------------------------------------------------- I'm sure you understand what you need to do... Only thing I want to explain to you is the rendezvous point. To get there, you may fly over some mountains but I'd prefer you to go through a narrow valley. It's just north of X and TN. It is somehow blocked by a large isolated mountain but you can get around it to the rendezvous point. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Concussion Missiles/Advanced Spread Proton Bombs Advanced Concussion Missiles= two thumbs down Advanced Spread Proton Bombs= two thumbs up The Concussion upgrade only applies to the Millennium Falcon, which sucks. The Spread Bombs only applies to Y-wing but it ROCKS! The bombs will create another 6 mini-bombs upon impact! This rules in the gold-hunt for VoK and PotW. Enough about the blabber. Time for some explaining. Both of the upgrades are in the same place, the Academy. Not in the EXACT same place but pretty much close to it. Go to the Academy and go to the tunnel to the right (Day) or left (Night). Fly through the tunnel and you've got it. Yawn. ==================================================================== | RAID ON BESPIN | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #8 | ==================================================================== Raid on Bespin Chips & Bits --------------------------- Starting Aircraft: A-wing (may be changed to Cloud Car) Other possible Aircrafts: X-wing, Y-wing, B-wing, Millennium Falcon, TIE Fighter, Slave 1 Tech Upgrade: Advanced Homing Missiles ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----11:00 8:55 6:40 Enemies Destroyed----45 75 110 ----Shot Accuracy----12% 30% 65% --Friendlies Lost----41 32 29 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----10% 32% 72% This level is nothing special, just some dogfights and a errand objective. There's a 'special' ship, Cloud Car, that you can use, but there's nothing else. Oh, I forgot to tell you... when you have to destroy the 'balloon turrets', it's easier if you just shoot at the pot that holds the fire. If you do so, the entire balloon will blow up and all 6 turrets will be gone just like that. The fire's near the top so you have to go low to see it. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Secure the Tibanna gas platforms 2. Destroy the City's power generators (3) 3. Defend the Tibanna gas platforms from the TIE bombers You will start off in a A-wing and it's horrible. Weak shields will kill you! TIEs will come swarming all over you so zig-zag to avoid them. Emply your wingmen to the TIEs immediately. You don't have to destroy the TIEs yourself to protect the gas platforms. All you have to do is to destroy all turrets in the balloons. If you read my intro up above, you'll know how to destroy them 'properly'. Use the turbo to go to the first balloon, which is to the left of the starting point. Shoot at the burners until it explodes. Then go further, past the dirt mist, to find two more balloons. Destroy them as usual and look for a lone balloon to the extreme right. After that, go a bit left to find the final three balloons. Pretty simple, IF the TIEs didn't chase you so much! You have some time left so use that time to kill some TIEs. They deserve it! hahaha! When some time has passed, a cutscene will be triggered. *~*Completed Objective 1: Secure the Tibanna gas platforms*~* You will be in the downtown portion of Tibanna... There's still some balloons around but it's not important anymore and they barely ever shoot at you. Ignore them, unless you're going for the silver or gold medal. Anyway, you have to go to the trenches and find the generators and destroy them. There are three in all and the radar shows you where's the closest one is so it's not that hard. Fly high up and scope the trenches below to find the generator and dive down and shoot at it. If you're low in health, you can switch to a Cloud Car by going into one of three icons around Tibanna. It's pretty cool, but I recommend you switch back to A-wing when you're done with the second objective. Note: you can use the Targeting computer to locate them. *~*Completed Objective 2: Destroy the city's power generators*~* Go to the east side (radar will show you) to the gas platforms. Destroy the balloons if you like, but that's not your priority nor the objective. Go higher up and you will see some TIE Fighters and Bombers... Only the Bombers are required to die. There are five in all... ONLY five! Ignore the Fighters and kick the Bombers' asses to complete the level. *~*Completed Objective 3: Defend the Tibanna gas platforms from the TIE Bombers*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1.

Also, the dog-fighting with the bombers are located outside the #, in the area of the Balloons and gas platforms. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Homing Missiles You see the Imperial Loader in the first area?

As you can see, the Bronze Medal requires you to go under 13 minutes! That' a long time... This level is straightforward but it will take you a while before you finally beat it... Be prepared and concentrate... ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Protect the fleet 2. Protect the Medical Frigate 3. Destroy all TIE Bombers (16) 4. Destroy both Star Destroyers You will start out heading toward the wrong way. Immediately turn around (don't worry, the fleet will realize that soon and turn around too) and fly until you see a million of tiny specks coming. See that? That's the sight of a WAR! You will face about 80 TIEs! Do your best to destroy them! Employ your wingmen to the TIEs, of course. Then just all-out dogfight the TIEs. Use your missiles if you wish (if you have the seeker missiles) and just find a good group of TIEs and hunt them down. Don't tap, just hold down to fire because you don't have the time to waste, your fleet needs better protection than tapping your lasers. If you're not fast or aggressive enough, the fleet may go down early. Don't take any sharp turns or slow down because the TIEs will be coming from everywhere. One might hit you as you turn, burning a life out of your pocket. Eventually, you will hear somebody telling you that the TIE Bombers are coming. There are 16 of them and they show up as yellow TIEs on your targeting computer. Use your seeker missiles up if you have some. Ignore all other TIEs except the Bombers. The Bombers can inflict some serious damage to your fleet to move quickly. They usually hang around high, above the fleet. Shoot them from afar or near. They can take some lasers so shoot at them until they blow up. Good luck. *~*Completed Objective 3: Destroy all TIE bombers*~* Yep, you haven't completed Objective 1 or 2. You still have to make sure your fleet stays healthy and strong. In this part, you don't have to dog-fight, but you have to destroy your next targets fast or your fleet will burn. Your next targets: the Star Destroyers. Remember Razor Rendezvous? You have to destroy the Destroyers in the similar way. This time, no ion cannons needed. From your starting point after Objective 3, go up a bit and turn on your turbos and fly left, past the left Star Destroyer, away from the turrets. Send your wingmen to the Guns and go behind the left Destroyer and use 1 or 2 missiles and some lasers to destroy each sphere. After that, go down under and destroy the final generator at the bottom. The fire will go ALL-OUT on you, so be extremely careful! You WILL die so don't worry. You need to die anyway to refill your missiles. Make sure you use your missiles up on the generators. After that, immediately go up to the main deck and shoot at the command center (remember, RR). If you're low in health, just crash to the command center (unless you have 1 life left). Do the pervious explanation on the other Destroyer and you've completed the level. Tough, indeed... but do not give up! It took me 3 tries to beat this level for the first time. *~*Completed Objective 1: Protect the Fleet*~* *~*Completed Objective 2: Protect the Medical Frigate*~* *~*Completed Objective 4: Destroy both Star Destroyers*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Turn around to find the TIEs (70) 2. Send your wingmen to the TIEs 3. Dogfight aggressively 4. Kill all TIE Bombers once they come (16) 5. Fly to the Star Destroyer, staying away from the turrets 6.

You can fire the CLUSTER MISSILES, which contains _6_ missiles, without aiming and let it destroy an ENTIRE TIE squadron! ******* awesome! It's in the space, very, very difficult to find it. It's somewhere left and below the left Star Destroyer. I couldn't find it after a few minutes of searching but I finally found it by destroying the LEFT Destroyer ONLY and wait for it to fall down and stop falling. When it stops, go down to it and look around its bottom. You should see an alcove somewherte in there. Dive to the alcove and quickly get out. You should have gotten the best upgrade in the game! The upgrade is just there, in that alcove. ==================================================================== | STRIKE AT THE CORE | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #10 | ==================================================================== Strike at the Core Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: X-wing Other possible Aircrafts: Millennium Falcon Tech Upgrade: Advanced Targeting Computer ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----7:00 6:15 5:05 Enemies Destroyed----29 36 41 ----Shot Accuracy----10% 21% 32% --Friendlies Lost----0 0 0 -------Lives Lost----2 2 1 --------------TCE----20% 45% 95% Welcome to the humble adobe of the final main mission. This level ain't too tough if your aim is true and your sense of mobility with your X-wing is high. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Protect the Millennium Falcon 2. Reach the power core entry 3. Destroy the power core You will have to protect the Falcon from the TIEs that will come from behind. Don't worry about the turrets, they won't hurt the Falcon. However, they will hurt YOU but you don't have the time to destroy them all... You can avoid their fire by flying way up. In the bird's eye view, you can see the TIEs that are trying to cacth up to the Falcon and destroy it. When you see some TIEs, fly down and shoot them all down IMMEDATIELY and go back up. A pointer: DO NOT go too far behind the Falcon or the Falcon will automatically burn down. Just stay moderately close to it while staying up. Continue protecting the Falcon until the Falcon goes into the hole... *~*Completed Objective 2: Reach the power core entry*~* Once in the hole to the core, shoot several lasers to destroy the TIEs that are front of you ALREADY! Then drop down a BIT to let the TIEs behind you to get ahead of you and shoot them down. Speed up to catch up with the Falcon, still flying behind it. From now on, whenever the TIEs passes you, abruptly destroy all of the TIEs. Keep doing this until you and the Falcon reaches the end, which is the power core. Once there, turn on your turbos and get close to the Power Core and turn on your Targeting Computer. You have to destroy the yellow marking on the Power Core. Just shoot 2~3 missiles at that location and a cutscene will occur. *~*Completed Objective 3: Destroy the power core*~* All you have to do is turn on your turbos and fly past the Falcon as soon as possible. After that, turn off the turbos for all corners or turns. Use your turbos on the straightways. If you're too slow, the fire from the explosion will catch up with you and you will fail the mission. Just be calm and dodge the bars... When you get to the end, you've completed the final main mission! *~*Completed Objective 1: Protect the Millennium Falcon*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Fly up and look down for the TIEs 2. Shoot the TIEs once you see them 3. DO NOT stray too far behind the Falcon 4. In the entry, shoot all of the TIEs that passes you immediately 5. Shoot a few missiles at the core tower 6. Turbo past the Falcon and get to the end +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Meh... none needed. +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ Advanced Targeting Computer Pretty cool upgrade, since you get to have the Targeting Computer up as long as you want. To get it, go into the entry and proceed all of the way to the extreme end. Just BEFORE the power core's room, you should be able to see 5 pipes in a row. Under those pipes, the upgrade! Just dive down under the pipes to get the upgrade. ==================================================================== | DEATH STAR ESCAPE | | Episode IV: A New Hope | | Bonus Mission #1 | ==================================================================== Death Star Escape Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: Millennium Falcon Other possible Aircrafts: none Tech Upgrade: none ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----2:45 2:07 1:20 Enemies Destroyed----34 34 35 ----Shot Accuracy----4% 9% 16% --Friendlies Lost----0 0 0 -------Lives Lost----0 0 0 --------------TCE----100% 100% 100% Meh... a level where you just shoot down the TIEs.

You just shoot down all of the TIEs and it's bye, bye Secret Missions #1! However, it is a bit harder to hit the TIEs this time so getting the Gold Medal will be tough. Anyway, if you just want to beat this level, just hold down the fire button and aim at the TIEs until all of them goes down. ::yawn:: The controls for the Falcon's turret are different... L trigger---Fire R trigger---Fire C button---move chair Analog pad---move turret Just hold one of the trigger and fire away! It's so easy that you won't believe it!

Although you have to 'escape' the TIE fighters, you don't really ESCAPE them... more like DESTROYING them. All of the TIEs will come from behind but luckily, the Falcon has the turret in the back so you can shoot the TIEs while they're flying behind you! Just press A to fire the back turret. The turret will automatically hit the nearest TIE (although sometimes, it just goes crazy and shoot off-screen). Just wait ntil your screen backs out and shoot the TIE out. Don't forget about the asteroids! They can completely destroy you so be careful! Just go STRAIGHT, dodging the asteroids and kicking the TIEs' asses. Eventually you will see a cutscene. Nothing big, just follows the storyline. You will come back out and fight off some TIEs again. Do this until you see a Star Destroyer up ahead. Go a bit to the right and go around to the back of the Destroyer. Don't let the turrets see you. Go up near the spheres at the back to find a blue icon. Enter it to complete the level. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Go straight 2. Kill the stupid TIEs 3. Kill some more TIEs 4. Poop. 5. Go to the icon in the back of the Destroyer. 6. Poop some more. +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Go right about 500 meters, north about 500 miles, east about 500 kilometers, and go south about 500 inches and you've found your mom! +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ None, this is a Secret Missions and all upgrades are on the Main Missions only. ==================================================================== | TRIUMPH OF THE EMPIRE | | Episode IV: A New Hope | | Bonus Mission #3 | ==================================================================== Triumph of the Empire Chips & Bits ---------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: TIE Advanced Other possible Aircrafts: TIE Fighter, Imperial Shuttle Tech Upgrade: none ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----8:00 6:00 4:00 Enemies Destroyed----18 23 32 ----Shot Accuracy----12% 20% 35% --Friendlies Lost----5 4 3 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----100% 100% 100% Ah, your first mission as the Empire! In this level, you won't use any of your Rebel aircrafts... instead you will use a nifty TIE! To be more specific, Darth Vader's TIE Advanced! 'Tis better since it has the cluster missiles. I recommend you go back to BoE and get the Homing Cluster Missiles upgrade if you haven't yet. Go to SatC and press up to find this level. 30 points are needed to buy this. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Destroy all Rebels over the surface 2. Destroy all Rebels before they fire their proton torpedoes Remember DSA? This level is the exact opposite of that. In DSA, you're the Rebel trying to explode the Death Star. However, in this level, you're trying to STOP the Rebels from doing that. First, you will have to destroy all of the Rebels flying around the surface by dogfighting. You know what to do, just get behind them and shoot them by formation. The Rebel's aircrafts can take a lot of damage so be prepared to shoot a lot. The TIE's lasers trail off so it's pretty hard to hit them effectively. That's why I wanted you to get the seeker cluster missiles. This way, you can blow them away with 2 cluster missiles per squadron. If you're concerned about your wingmen, just send them to the Rebels, although I doubt they help you at all anyway. *~*Completed Objective 1: Destroy all Rebels over the surface*~* Now it's the trench time again. Remember, this is the exact opposite of DSA so don't worry. You have to destroy 3 Rebel Squadron (3 aircrafts each) in the trench. Your first targets will be on the radar as an orange direction. Go to that direction and immediately turn around when the orange cone starts to widen up. If you timed it perfectly, you should see the Rebel squadronin the trench below you. If the squadron's behind you, just wait until they passes you. If the squadron's ahead of you, of course, speed up. You have to look for the squadrons while OUT of the trench. With the searching for the Rebels done, go down to the trench and follow them. Dodge the barriers if needed and fire your lasers at them until they all do down. Homing cluster missiles are the best, though. After you've destroyed the first squadron, get out of the trench and turn around and fly to the next squadron and follow them. Destroy them as usual and get out and look for the final squadron. If you're wondering about the Rebels that hovers above the trench, ignore them, they're not important to your mission. *~*Completed Objective 2: Destroy all Rebels before they fire their proton torpedoes*~* +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Send your wingmen to the Rebels 2. Destroy all of the Rebels by dogfighting 3. Look for the Rebel squadron in the trench and follow them 4. Destroy them before they reach the exhaust port 5. Turn around to find the next squadron 6. Repeat steps 3~5 two more times +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ What for? +++++++++++++ -=UPGRADE=- +++++++++++++ There are none, just like your penis. ==================================================================== | REVENGE ON YAVIN | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Bonus Mission #4 | ==================================================================== Revenge on Yavin Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Starting Aircraft: TIE Advanced Other possible Aircrafts: TIE Fighter, Imperial Shuttle Tech Upgrade: none ################## MEDAL REQUIREMENTS ################## Bronze Silver Gold ====== ====== ==== --Completion Time----7:45 6:30 4:33 Enemies Destroyed----15 22 36 ----Shot Accuracy----24% 45% 65% --Friendlies Lost----23 19 15 -------Lives Lost----2 1 0 --------------TCE----100% 100% 100% Whoo!

You have to get at least a bronze to uncover this level though. ++++++++++++++ -=OBJECTIVES=- ++++++++++++++ 1. Destroy as many Rebels as possible 2. Do not allow more than two transports to escape Again, please get the homing cluster missiles if you haven't! Anyway, the first objective is weird because you're supposed to do that anyway! Your true objective lies at the transports. You have to destroy them all expect one. You can destroy them all, but you don't have to. Anyway, you start off heading to the land full of trees. Keep going forward until you see a 'temple' with two white aircrafts next to it. THAT's the transports so shoot at them immediately with your cluster missiles or lasers. You have to BLOW them up, not just shoot at them! They will take a lot before blowing up so press L to slow down to increase your firing time. If you run out of room, just go up and turn around to fire at them again. After you've destroyed both of the transports, go to the right (from the starting point). You may kill any of the Rebel aircrafts on the way and on the ground if you like, that will help you later on. You should see yet another temple with _4_ transports. Shoot the left-most one first because it will be the first to take off. If you were a bit slow, some of them might've took off already so be quick! Use your missiles or lasers. Destroy the transports that have took off first. After destroying all 4, go back left, but go right of the temple that you had to destroy two transport. One of the transport are probably already in the air so destroy it immediately. Two more transports are on ground or in air so kill them off. Looks like all of the transports are gone... Cool... Wait... Nope. The level's not over yet. What to do? Go to the HUGE temple/shrine and look for a gate on the floor. Go around and around (avoid any Rebels if they're shooting at you) and wait for the gate to open. When it does, IMMEDAITELY go in! In the temple, slow down! With your L-trigger, remember! The space is very limited by you should be alright if you keep your finger on the L. Use up your missiles ON the transports not the smaller Rebel aircrafts! Just go around and around while shooting at the transports. When you've destroyed all of the transports, you've beaten the level. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Send the wingmen to the Rebels 2. Go forward and destroy the first two transports 3. Go right and destroy the aircrafts lying on the ground with your homing cluster missiles if you like 4. Destroy the next 4 transports 5. Go back to the pervious temple but go right of it a bit to find 3 transports and destroy them 6. Go to the big temple and wait for the gate to open 7. Enter the temple 8. Destroy all of the transports inside +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ I thought a map was needed to make the position of the transports more easier to understand.

The preceding statement might be the first thing that came on your mind when you saw the stats for the Gold Medal. Yea, 1:19. However, that is not the hardest objective... the enemies killed is. You only kill 4 enemies during the mission so you haver to kill another 6 to get the Gold Medal. Here's how... With your B-Wing, tell your wingmen to go away. Then go forward, with your turbo on. Don't try to kill the TIEs, they will screw your accuracy up. Just proceed noramlly to the back of the ship. Ion cannonize the spheres and destroy them as usual. You HAVE to destroy both of those in ONE run, you don't have time to go around and try again. After destroying them both, go down under for the final generator. But, don't shoot at the generator yet. There's TONS of turrets on the bottom so use this chance to shoot ONE turret. Then ion cannonize the generator and destroy it (with missiles, if you still have it). After that, shoot another turret at the bottom. When you're done with the turret, crash into the Destroyer. You'll automatically end up facing the Destroyer. Go to the plate front of the command center. There's quite a lot of turrets. Shoot at least 4 turrets (more if you haven't destroyed some turrets down under) and crash into the command center. Not that hard at all. In fact, I think it was one of my first golds in this game. However, I had to try a lot to finally get this one. Practice, practice! +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Tell your wingmen to flee 2. Got to the back of the ship 3. Destroy the spheres in one run 4. Go down under and destroy one turret quickly 5. Destroy the final generator 6. Destroy another turret 7. Crash into the Destroyer 8. Shoot another 4 turrets on the top side of the Destroyer 9. Crash into the command deck +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Don't try to shoot at the TIEs for the kill count 2. Just use the turrets, they won't move! ;-) 3. Try your best to avoid the lasers from the turrets (duh) 4. Use 2 missiles per generator 5. Use your turbo when going to the command deck ==================================================================== | VENEGEANCE ON KOTHLIS | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back | | Main Mission #6 | ==================================================================== Venegeance on Kothlis Chips & Bits ---------------------------------- Recommended Aircraft: Slave 1 or X-Wing Recommended Upgrades: Advanced Shields Advanced Lasers Homing Proton Torpedoes (for X-Wing, if you use it) Advanced Proton Torpedoes (for X-Wing) Advanced Proton Bombs Spread Proton Bombs Advanced Cluster Missiles (for Slave 1) Homing Cluster Missiles (for Slave 1) Gold Difficulty ==== ========== --Completion Time----9:55 *** Enemies Destroyed----100 **** ----Shot Accuracy----27% * --Friendlies Lost----2 *** -------Lives Lost----0 *** --------------TCE----85% * While X-Wing is a pretty good choice for the Gold Medal run, Slave 1 is a better choice. Its Homing Clusters can destroy the fleet of the TIEs at the beginning. The only problem, you have to survive al of the way to the Speeder switch! I'm going to write the Walkthrough as a Slave 1, not X-Wing. As a Slave 1, you have to be careful... a TIE that happens to be behind you, firing at you... you can kiss your Medal good-bye. You have to avoid letting the TIEs to take aim at you. So... head to the left and wait until the TIEs that are coming are in the range and fire your missiles! When they goes down, head right to find some more TIEs. Destroy them all quickly... If some squad of TIEs goes behind you, immeidately turn around and look for that TIE and destroy it. You can't afford to die. Just destroy them all, use all of your missiles. If you just happen to destroy them all quickly, with your transport just turning to the landing point... use this time to shoot some missiles (if you still have some) at the Destroyer to destroy some turrets that resides there. BUT DON'T get CLOSE! Just stay with your transport all of the way. When your transport FINALLY lands, immedaitely switch to the Speeder and take down the AT-ATs. Take down the nearest one and the next one and so on. This way, you have more room between the body and the water. Sometimes the AT-AT would move its head down while you're passing underneath, crashing to you. You must live throughout the mission. After tipping the AT-ATs over, switch to the Y-Wing. your first priority is NOT the AT-PTs... nor the Destroyer. You have to destroy the majority of the enemy turrets or soliders on the beach. They will kill some of the Rebels from the transport if you don't destroy them. Use your bombs to destroy the turrets or people on the beach. Do this on ONE run. While bombing the beach, go to the hull of the Destroyer and drop 7~9 bombs to make a hole so you don't have to worry about it later. Now, your priority is the AT-PTs. Go to the waters and bomb the AT-PTs. Remember, the proton bombs recharge so don't worry about your supply. You have plenty of time to recharge. Fly up high to take the AT-PTS out easier. You should be good at it by now so you should know what to do. Continue taking out the AT-PTs until a person tells you that the first wave is gone. Go to the hull near the hole and bomb the site there to help the people out (1~2 bombs). After that, return to the waters and take out the second wave. After the AT-PTs, some TIEs may chase after you. Don't worry... just use this chance to fly around, checking if the Rebels on the ground needs some help. The level will be over soon anyway. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Command = Attack the TIEs 2. Destroy the TIEs Fighters/Intercopters with your cluster missiles 3. Stick with your transport for protection from the turrets on the Destroyer 4. Switch to the Speeder 5. Take down the AT-ATs 6. Switch to the Y-Wing 7. Bomb the path to the hull of the ship 8. Bomb the hull to create a hole 9. Destroy the first wave of the AT-PTs 10. Return to the hull of the ship to take out some mroe turrets (if needed) 11. Once again, eliminate the second wave of AT-PTs 12. Help the men (if needed) or just avoid the TIEs and wait for the end +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Don't let the TIEs get behind you 2. Be smart with your clusters 3. Stick with your transport while going to the landing spot 4. Don't worry about the turrets on the beach or the hull TOO much... you have to destroy the AT-PTs, you know! 5. Fly high to take the AT-PTs easier 6. Don't be afraid to use your rechargable bombs up! 7. Try to take out as many turrets as you can, the kill count is really high. 8. Don't get too close to the Destroyer, the turrets will greatly damage you 9. Try, try again! At first, my kill count was about 70-80 but I tried again and again and my kill count slowly rose to 100+! ==================================================================== | IMPERIAL ACADEMY HEIST | | Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back~ Episode VI: Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #7 | ==================================================================== Imperial Academy Heist Chips & Bits ----------------------------------- Recommended Aircraft: Y-Wing (Day) Recommended Upgrades: Advanced Shields Advanced Lasers Gold Difficulty ==== ========== --Completion Time----4:12 *** Enemies Destroyed----51 **** ----Shot Accuracy----49% *** --Friendlies Lost----0 * -------Lives Lost----0 * --------------TCE----100% * While this Gold Medal can be accessed by Day, I don't recommend it. If you did it with your speedy Speeder, GOOD FOR YOU! I don't care and I don't want your strategy, peroid. My strategy is my strategy and it works. Thanks. Back to the point, the SLOW Y-Wing is a very good choice for the gold medal for some reasons. A great reason: You can bomb the parked TIEs on the platforms for some easy kills. Alright, here we go... As a Y-Wing, go low as usual and avoid being seen by the scanners. You can ionize the some of the sensors to ensure your safety, but don't brake for them. Just ionize the ones that you have time for. Take the right fork and go up in the air. Go to the platform to the right for some parked TIEs. Bomb them ASAP (some of them will take off). After that, go to the Academy as usual while bombing the parked TIEs on various platforms. There are 4 platforms that you should bomb. (Refer to the map) Use two bombs for every platform, one on each side. You should at least kill 3 on each platform. *****When you finally see the Academy, you should have 12 TIEs destroyed so far!***** Upon entering the Academy, go down and line yourself up to the parked lines of TIEs. Snipe a row of TIEs. Each row will have 5 TIEs so destroy 6 and a half lines. What I'm trying to say... position yourself so when you're going at the TIEs, you should have the TIEs directly lined up so when you shoot with your lasers, you don't have to move left or right for the next TIE. You may use your bombs too. You can turn around and do another run for more TIEs (use all 4 quadrants). However, you have to be fast. Don't wander off too long. Count your kills... *****You should have destroyed at least 31 parked TIEs for the total of 43 kills, with at lerast 5 bombs left***** Now, go to the blue icon, but don't enter it. Just go around the icon and destroy the turrets that surround the Shuttle. There are 2 turret on each corner of the square. After that, enter the icon. *****With those 8 kills from the turrets, you should have 51 kills now***** As a Shuttle, immeidately head to the rendezvous point while zig-zagging. DO NOT fire any lasers!!! It will surely screw up your accuracy. Just be patient and get to the rendezvous point ASAP. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Disable the sensors without slowing down 2. Take the right fork 3. Destroy at least 12 TIEs on 4 platforms with your bombs 4. Go to the Academy 5. Line up the TIEs and shoot them up with your lasers or bombs. You should have killed at least 30 or 31 TIEs (6 rows) 6. Bomb the turrets around the Shuttle (8 kills) 7. Go to the rendezvous point ASAP +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Do not slow down at all. 2. Don't go too far when disabling the sensors. Ignore the ones that you know you can avoid 3. Bomb the platforms ASAP, try to bomb them before the TIEs fly off 4. Use both bombs and lasers when taking out the TIEs by the Academy 5. Save some bombs for the turrets 6. Zig-Zag to avoid the TIEs when you're in the Shuttle 7. You can fly over some peaks in the mountains, if you're lucky +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ Map is for all objectives, day or night. ****** LEGEND ****** S---Starting point .---Imperial sensor OO--platforms with TIEs D---satellite dish I---Imperial Shuttle X---Rendezvous point ~---mountains/hills E---Start path when exiting on the Shuttle •---path you should take ------------------------------------------------------- |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~ I ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~ \\\ | /// ~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ \\\ | /// ~~~~| |~~~~~~ -----|----- ~~~~| |~~~~~~ /// | \\\ ~~~~| |~~~~~~ E /// | \\\ ~~~~| |~~~~~~~ • • ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ • • ~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ • ~ ~ ~ • ~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~ • ~~~~ • ~~~ ~~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~••~••••••• ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~•~~~~~~~ OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~• ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~•~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ••OO ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~•~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ••••••• ~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~ ••••• ~ • ~~D OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~ • ~~~~~OO•••• D~~•••~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~| |~~~~~ X ~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ • ~ | |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~| |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ OO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~ ~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~ ~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~ ~~~~~ •~~~~~.•••. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~ •~~~ •.~~• .~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~.•••• ~~~~••~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~.•••••.• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~•••.•••~~~~~~~~~| |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ •••••••S | |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ------------------------------------------------------- ==================================================================== | RAID ON BESPIN | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #8 | ==================================================================== Raid on Bespin Chips & Bits --------------------------- Recommended Aircraft: X-Wing Recommended Upgrades: Advanced Shields Advanced Lasers Advanced Proton Torpedoes Homing Proton Torpedoes Gold Difficulty ==== ========== --Completion Time----6:40 **** Enemies Destroyed----110 **** ----Shot Accuracy----65% **** --Friendlies Lost----29 *** -------Lives Lost----0 ** --------------TCE----72% * With a X-Wing, this level will be a LOT easier since you have better shields than that crappy A-Wing! The main objective in this level is to destroy as many balloons in the second part (above the city) as possible. Each balloons has 6 turrets so you gain 6 kills for every balloon exploded. You explode 7 balloons for the first objective so you already have 42 kills under your belt. Destroying the Bombers and the Generators earns you another 8 kills so you have 50 kills that you HAVE to earn. This leaves 60 kills that you have to earn by yourself. You already figured it out, didn't you? 10 balloons, that's right. Pretty tough, I know. Especially with only 6:40. Start off by telling your wingmen to go after the TIEs to distract them. Go to the left and shoot the fire pot to destroy the first Balloon. Go through the fog to find two more balloons. After destroying them, go right a bit to find another balloon. To the left of that balloon, there's THREE more balloons waiting for you. If you destroyed them fast, you should look around for some TIE Fighters and use 1~2 homing torps on them, it seems to speed the cutscene up. In the city area, immediately fly up and destroy the first balloon you see. Look for one more balloon and put it in the flames. Go down and find the generator (a bit to the left of the starting point) After that, go back up and look for THREE more balloons. Yes, THREE! Do it fast, too. Make sure your balloons are on the way to your next generator to save time. After destroying the balloons, dip down and break the second generator. Once again, go back up and look for 3 more balloons and dip down for the final generator. Immediately go to the gas platforms where the Bombers will be. BUT don't attack the Bombers yet! There's two ballons around that area... Use those balloons to reach your requirement of 110 kills. If you destroyed 8 balloons above the Cloud City, you'll be fine! You should have 4~5 homing missiles in your arsenal. Use them all on the Bombers alone, don't kill the Fighters with your missiles. You can kill the Fighters but use your lasers! Just use your missiles for the Bombers. There are 5 of them so you may have to laser one of them down. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Command your wingmen to the TIEs 2. Destroy all of the balloons (42 kills) 3. Try to kill 1 or 2 more TIE Fighters before the cutscene for insurance 4. Destroy 2 balloons before going to the trenches for the first generator 5. After the first generator, destroy 3 more balloons 6. Destroy the second generator and go back up for 3 more balloons 7. Dip down once more to turn off the final generator 8. Two more balloons near the gas platforms... 9. Use your torps on the Bombers to end the level ASAP +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Shoot at the pot to burn down the balloons! 2. Don't shoot at the wiring that holds the balloons, shoot past them! 3. Don't waste your torps 4. MEMORIZE the locations of the balloons and the generators so your run will go FLAWLESSLY 5.

I mean, look at my ratings! 3 4-stars and a 5-star! The dogfight is insane and if you want to get the Gold, you have to be frightfully accurate and quick. The lone 5-star belongs to the Lives Lost column. The reason? The legendary Darth Bob. If you're not familiar with that term, its the one that seemingly seeks a collision with you. You might collide with him once, or if you're very unlucky, two times. Two deaths = no Gold. Difficult indeed. Alright, start off turning around immediately. You should command your wingmen to go to the TIEs to help you. Immediately use a few homing torps (2?). Dogfight the TIEs as usual, but be good at it. Do not wander too far from the frigate because that's where the most of the TIEs will be at. If you wanders too far, you will waste some time coming back for more TIEs. You should kill off about 30 of them. (YES, THAT high! You got to have a hot hand to get that high kill count.) One tip: DO NOT take sharp turns. It increases the chance of having a Darth Bob crash into you. Just shoot when you know it will hit the target. The Accuracy limit is pretty steep so be safe. When the TIE Bombers finally come, ignore the Fighters and kill the Bombers immediately. There are 16 of them... Use two torps on the Bombers and kill the rest of the Bombers. I don't know what else to say... It's just a regualr dogfight that you have to be skillful at (and lucky!). A suggestion: when you've killed almost all of the Bombers, use the time (if you think you went too fast) to kill some Fighters that you might have missed earlier. Kill 3-5 more Fighters before killing the final Bombers. *****You should have about 45 kills so far***** Now at the second part... Tell your wingmen to FLEE. Turbo to the left Destroyer and shoot the spheres out IMMEDIATELY. Go down under and shoot the bottom generator while shooting from afar to minimize the damages. If you're still on your FIRST life, good! You're almost sure to get a Gold Medal! If you're shooting from afar, use this chance to shoot out at least 3 turrets at the bottom of the ship (or you can do it at the top part before crashing into the command deck). Now go up to the deck and shoot at the deck with torps or lasers (if you already lost a life) or crash into the deck (if no lives lost). Moving on to the next one... Do the same thing again (don't forget to destroy 3 or more turrets) and shoot out the deck. If you have some more missiles, USE it NOW on the TIEs!!!!!! You need those kills! If there's no more missiles, it doesn't matter anymore... just go out and chase down the TIEs! The stats on this guide adds up to 60 but you might not have killed enough. You need those insurance kills! Good luck, young Jedi. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Go around and head for the TIEs 2. Command you wingmen to the TIEs or flee 3. Kill at least 30 Fighters(total, not right now... can kill them before destroying all Bombers or kill them while chasing the Bombers) 4. Along with 30 Fighters, destroy all 16 Bombers. 5. Command your wingmen to flee again 6. Go to the left destroyer and shoot out the spheres. 7. From afar, destroy the bottom generator and 3 turrets 8. Shoot out the deck or crash into it 9. Repeat steps 6~8 on the right destroyer 10. Chase down some TIEs for insurance kills +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Be smart on your shooting in the dogfight. You need the accuracy points 2. Use 2 torps on the Fighters, 2 on Bombers and use the rest on the destroyer's generators or turrets 3. Try to have all of your lives intact until you destroy the first Destroyer 4. Do not turn around sharply, Bobs might crash into you 5. Be as fast as possible 6. if you can, kill more turrets 7. Chase down as many TIEs as you can after you've destroyed the second Destroyer ==================================================================== | STRIKE AT THE CORE | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Main Mission #10 | ==================================================================== Strike at the Core Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Recommended Aircraft: X-Wing Recommended Upgrades: Advanced Shields Advanced Lasers Advanced Proton Torpedoes Homing Proton Torpedoes Gold ==== --Completion Time----5:05 Enemies Destroyed----41 ----Shot Accuracy----32% --Friendlies Lost----0 -------Lives Lost----1 --------------TCE----95% God... this level really ANNOYED me in my Gold Medal runs. I must've tried AT LEAST 20 times for the Gold Medal. Always ended up 1 kill or 1% accuracy short of the Gold Medal. ::sighs:: On the surface run, you have to destroy at least 5 turrets thast lies around. When the level starts, immediately turbo to a turret and destroy it. Go up to the air to over-see the Millennium Falcon. Wait for the TIEs to come, as usual. Use one of your torps on a Fighter and shoot down the rest. After killing them all, go to either side and destroy one more turret. Repeat the process until you get to the end. **TIP: JUST before the Falcon enters the hole to trigger a cutscene, crash into the surface! Your death count won't go up! You will still have 3 lives and FULL health and torps!** In the hole, shoot the 3 TIEs that are already in front of you. If you haven't died yet, crash NOW! You can spare a life for the Gold... This way, you have another 4 TIEs to destroy, an easy addition to your kill total. You won't even waste any time too! After that, go ahead and destroy the TIEs again and follow the Falcon and shoot the TIEs out as usual. When you're finally at the core, immediately shoot 2 torps at the core when you're in range. The cutscene will automatically turn you the other way anyway. On the exit run, turbo right away and pass the Falcon and slow down on turns. You have plenty of time if you didn't waste any time. Just be calm in this run, but do use the turbo on the straight runs. If things seems too hard, just turn off your turbo, but don't let the fire catch up. You have plenty of time anyway. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Destroy a turret 2. Fly high and wait for a squad of TIEs 3. Kill the squad and destroy a turret after that 4. Repeat steps 2-3 until you get to the end 5. Destroy the 3 TIEs in the front of you and crash 6. Proceed through the hole as usual 7. Destroy the core 8. Escape quickly +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Don't forget to destroy the turrets, they are vital! 2. Crash just before the cutscene if you want 3. Again, if you WANT, crash after destroying the first 3 TIEs in the hole 4. Be calm when dodging the pipes 5. Shoot at the core with torps immediately when you get in range 6.

It is an upgrade. To be specific, the Homing Cluster Missiles. Your TIE Advanced has it so you can use it to own the Rebels under 4 minutes. No Homing Cluster Missiles = bad thing. The hardest thing to do is to kill the extra Rebels when you're waiting for the Rebels in the trench. Of course, you start off in the dogfight. Just speed up and seek out a squad of Rebels and fire two cluster missiles at them to destroy them. Don't waste any cluster missiles, you need as many as you can for the next segment. You can use lasers if you're DIRECTLY behing the X-Wings. Yes, the X-Wings. Do not use the lasers on the Y-Wings, it will screw up your accuracy. You should have at least 10~11 clusters left when you're done with this part. Not that hard at all. In the next part, immediately follow the first squad of rebels in the trench. Destroy them with two well-positioned clusters. Don't fire the clusters when there's a lot of barriers around. Fire them when the space between you and the rebels are clear. After that, go back out of the trench and look around for some rebels. Try to kill 3 (1 squad) rebels before the second group comes around in the trench. The next group has some X-Wing so you can use the lasers to destroy them rather easily. You can use missiles, I don't care but you might want to save them for the outside part of the trench. Go back out after you've killed the second group to find some more Rebels. If you've destroyed 3 rebels after the first group, you only have to destroy 3 more. If you haven't, then destroy 6 more. Go into the trench when the third and final squad comes around. Destroy them immediately with your remaining clusters or lasers. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Call your wingmen to flee 2. Use 8~9 clusters in the dogfight 3. Go into the trench for the first squad and use the clusters on them 4. Look around for some Rebels and destroy 3 of them with missiles 5. Go into the trench again for the second squad and use lasers to destroy them 6. Again, look for some more Rebels in the space and destroy 3 of them with missiles 7. Go into the trench yet again and destroy the final squad +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Use the missiles even if your target are coming at you or going across your path. The missiles will follow them. 2. You ALWAYS needs two cluster per aircraft to destroy them 3. When searching for Rebels that fly above the trench, IMMEDIATELY find them! The time is short... ==================================================================== | REVENGE ON YAVIN | | Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi | | Bonus Mission #4 | ==================================================================== Revenge on Yavin Chips & Bits ------------------------------- Recommended Aircraft: TIE Advanced Recommended Upgrades: Advanced Shields Advanced Lasers Homing Cluster Missiles Advanced Cluster Missiles Gold Difficulty ==== ========== --Completion Time----4:33 *** Enemies Destroyed----36 *** ----Shot Accuracy----65% * --Friendlies Lost----15 * -------Lives Lost----0 * --------------TCE----100% * Pretty fun mission and the Gold Medal stats for this level gives you some room for mistakes so it's pretty easy too! Again, the Homing Cluster Missiles is a must. With your TIE Advanced again, go forward and command your wingmen to attack the Rebels (you have the limit of 15 allies lost so you have plenty of room) and go to the upper left corner of the area where the two transports are. Don't destroy or even shoot at the transports yet, just go to that corner to find a Y-Wing sitting there. Shoot it with some lasers to destroy it. Go forward a bit and turn back for the transports. Slam on your brakes and shoot lasers like mad at the transports. After destroying the transports, go to the next transports (the quad). However, on the way, you have to use your homing clister missiles to destroy some of the X-Wing or Y-Wing sitting in the tree-less areas. There are two areas with several Rebels each. The Homing Clusters should easily destroy some. Sometimes the Missiles misses so shoot TWO clusters for each area. Go to the 4 transports. All of them should be still on the ground if you're fast enough. Maybe one will be starting to take off. Destroy them all with lasers. Then go to the final trio of transports. On the way to the final trio, you might encounter some Rebels. If you do, shoot some clusters (2) at them. Back to the original path, immediately destroy the transports. Now you only have to wait for the gate to open. However, do not be a sitting duck while waiting. Seize the moment! Seek out for some extra Rebels and destroy them with your missiles! You should be able to destroy about 6 of them at this point. Make sure you know whether if the gate is closed or open because ONCE it opens you have to go in. In the temple, use your remaining missiles if you haven't used them up yet and lasers to destroy the final transports. +++++++++++++ -=SUMMARY=- +++++++++++++ 1. Command your wingmen to attack 2. Destroy the lone Y-Wing in the corner 3. Go around and destroy the transports 4. Go to the next transports and while doing that, destroy some of the defenseless Rebels on the ground 5. Kick the four transport's asses 6. Kill some Rebel scum on the way to the final transports. 7. Pick the transports apart 8. While waiting for the gate to open, kill some Rebels 9. Go into the temple once the gate opens and use your remaining clusters and lasers to make those scums explode. +++++++++++++ -=TIPS=- +++++++++++++ 1. Use two clusters for each area with the defenseless Rebels 2. Go quickly, don't brake while destroying the Rebels but do brake while shooting at the transports 3. Always seize the chance... if you see some Rebels flying around, use your clusters! 4. If sme Rebels are following you, turn around and destroy them with clusters. 5. In the temple, press L ALL of the WAY. The space is very small so you need to go slowly to get around! +++++++++++++ -=MAP=- +++++++++++++ I thought a map was needed to make the position of the transports more easier to understand.
