Along the way, Two more people, Vanna Sage, a bounty hunter that is employed with the TF; and Nym, who was captured by Vanna. In any case, they meet up at some point, as you play, you play each of the missions as either Rhys, Vanna or Nym, in either the N-1 Starfighter, Guardian Mantis, or Havoc, respectively. They each have their own capabilities and have their own strengths and weaknesses. Rhys Dallows ------------ Ship: N-1 Starfighter Primary Weapon: Laser Cannon Secondary Weapon: Proton Torpedoes (non rechargable) Advanced Weapon: Advanced Proton Torpedoes (Swarms towards towards target) Pros: Strong shields, great maneuverability, great speed Cons: Only 10 Torpedoes, and they do not recharge. Overall: 4/5 (would be 5 if torpedoes could recharge) Vanna Sage ---------- Ship: Guardian Mantis Primary Weapon: Sensor-guided nanomissles (Use secondary fire to tag target so that they track) Secondary Weapon: Ion-Enabled Sensor Tags (Drains enemy shields and allows primary to track) Advanced Weapon: Ion Encumberance System (completely disables ship) Pros: Can recharge Weapon, fairly fast, can stop completely, able to disable Cons: Secondary Weapon kind of useless in heated battle and most ground targets Overall: 3/5 (I just don't like this stip much at all) Nym --- Ship: Havoc Primary Weapon: Dual Triple Laser Cannons Secondary Weapon: Energy bombs (use blue crosshair to target) Advanced Weapon: Plasma Scourge (works like napalm) Pros: Very good secondaries, can take damage, rechargable secondaries Cons: Bombs useless in dogfights, except at close range, but at that range the bombs will kill you also. Overall: 4/5 (Generally this is a decent ship to play as) ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [Section 4] Controls -------------------- The Controls of the game are pretty simple and useful in my opinion, although with a few minor complants. The default layout is like this: L: Brake R: Accelerate A: Fire Primary B: Fire Secondary (hold to fire advanced secondary; once available) X: Zoom Y: Manual Target Black: Auto Target White: Nothing Left Thumbstick: Pitch and yaw Right Thumbstick: Roll You can also change the controls to your own preferences and liking in the Options menu. I personally find t he default settings quite useful. At a certain point in the game, The ships will be equipped with advanced secondary weapons. You need to hold down secondary fire button to cahrge it. You will watch the secondary ammo indicator on your HUD go down multiple shots, then a shot will turn white. Release to fire the weapon. Zooming can be useful for long-range firing, which you will find yourself doing a hell of a lot. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [Section 5] Levels ------------------- This is the walkthrough of the entire game. The movies wont have any description, and will just be labeled movie. I will include the Bonus Objectives, along with the Mission Objectives, and will tell how to get each, should it be something that is more strategic than just keeping something alive or in a certain condition. This section will take a very long while to fully complete, as there a lot of medals I have not gotten and probably won't for a while. ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.1] First Morning (movie) ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.2] Naboo Proving Grounds --------------------------- Mission Objectives - - - Bonus Objectives - Complete Mission in under 4 minutes - (In order to get a medal for the time limit, you must do everything more quickly and nearly hold down the accelerator) Everything is very straightfoward on this level. When you begin, go through the canyon and destroy every mine that you see. If you see one at the last second, attempt to fire a torpedo at it or just try to kamikaze it. It will damage you, but your shields won't be depleted a whole lot. Just try not to do it. Next, you'll come to an area with a single turret. Destroy it, then destroy the waves of holographic Daggers that appear. Once you kill them, follow another one into the canyon and hunt it down, along with another one right after it. Now just keep doing whatever your wingman tells you to do, and then you have torace her through a canyon. Beat her and I believe you get a Bonus Objective completed. Then you have to dogfight her and deplete her shields. I can do this in literally somewhere around 3-5 seconds. Just put your crosshair on her before you start, and as soon as youdo, just hold down the fire key. Easy as pie ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.3] The Royal Escort ----------------------- Mission Objectives - - - Bonus Objectives The Queen's Ship takes no hull damage - - As soon as you start, you and your wingman will be escorting Amidala to a negotiation. As you approach, the TF flees and a bunch of Morning Stars come towards you. Basically, just keep targeting each morning star and keep shooting them. Sometimes they will taunt you and then scream when they die. Be Careful of the Dianoga ships when they come. They look like morning stars, but with 4 perpendicular wings, instead of the angled 3, and have much more powerful shielding and firepower. Concentrate on them more than the morningstars. They also have this kind of swarm missle thing that will kill you in seconds, even at full shields. Morning Stars have similar weapons, but not as powerful nor as fast-firing. Just keep the waves away from the queen and you will do fine. ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.4] PAths Cross (movie) ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.5] Contract Infraction -------------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.6] Secrets on Eos --------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.7] Feeorin Payback (movie) ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.8] Piracy above Lok ----------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.9] Valuable Goods --------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.10] Eye of The Storm ------------------------ ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.11] Unlikely Alliance (movie) ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.12] Taking the Offensive ---------------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.13] The Crippling Blow -------------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.14] The New Resistance -------------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.15] Midnight Munitions Run ------------------------------ ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.17] Last Stand on Naboo --------------------------- ________________________________________________________________________________ 5.18] The Final Assault ------------------------ ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.19] Farewall (movie) ________________________________________________________________________________ [5.20] Bonus Missions ---------------------- These are unlocked as you collect medals in each mission. Gain medals by successfully completing Bonus Objectives in Single Player. One bonus objective- Bronze Two- Silver Three- Gold I'll add them later. They are of lesser importance at the moment, and I only have about 5 or 6 unlocked. (Remeber though, get Golds on all the missions, and you can play any mission as Darth Maul and his Sith Inflitrator ;) Now there's something to work hard towards. ________________________________________________________________________________ ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [Section 7] Gameplay Tips -------------------------- -USE THE ZOOM!!!!! Especially at long range, this will help you get kills much quicker since your firing sooner. The slightly shorter amount of time it will take to kill adds up as you kill more targets, which may just end up saving whatever you may need to protect. (Note: You will need to lead the target further with your shots since you are so far away, so you don't miss) -USE SECONDARY WEAPONS LIBERALLY! Except for the N-1, the weapons recharge themselves at a decent rate. -STAY ALERT! Keep your eyes all over the screen, not just your target. For your enemy may be firing at your and you won't have a clue where. If you're looking for your targer with the indicator, DO NOT ignore other ships that you pass the crosshairs over. KILL them and then continue your hunt. -PRESS BRAKE, THEN ACCEL; OR ACCEL, THEN BRAKE Both will help you turn quickly without actually changing the directiion your going momentarily. However, be careful about doing this in small spaces, especially Midnight Munitions Run, since you will easily hit the walls, or hit an AAT. -SLOW DOWN WHEN APPROACHING A LARGE TARGET Large targets are usually more powerful in terms of defense, so brake in order to get more shots off in one pass and not waste time maneuvering for another fly over. Let loose with your Secondaries if need be. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [Section 7] Codes ------------------ These are a bitch to put up, and I have not gotten any of them to work so far. These are of the lowest priority at the moment. You don't need them all that much anyway. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ [Section 8] Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) --------------------------------------------- E-Mail me some questions and I will put them up.
