1. PROLOGUE

Star Wars Episode 1: Battle for Naboo is FANTASTIC. Brilliant. Astounding.
But it’s also mercilessly difficult, which is why it’s more than likely
you’re going to need just a little bit of help. And this is where you get
it- in my first game faq/walkthrough ever.
Battle for Naboo (BFN) is the sort of game that requires practice. It’s like
a sport; you need to play and play BFN until you’ve got that elusive gold
medal. A warning before we start, then: this game is NOT for the casual
gamer.
Everyone ready, then? Here we go!

3. CONTROLS

The controlling for BFN is great. Developers Factor 5 went to real trouble
making sure that everything felt right, which it does. Anyway, this is what
every button does on that lovely N64 control pad:

Joystick- Steers your craft and allows you to aim.
A button- Activate thrusters.
B button- Fire lasers.
C-left- Fires your secondary weapon (missiles, bombs)
R button- Allows you to turn sharply. ENORMOUSLY helpful.
L button- Cycles through camera views.
D-pad- Allows you to specifically select your preferred camera view.
Z- Brake. It either slows down or completely stops your craft. It depends on
which you’re using.

4. WALKTHROUGH

Well, here it is. The main attraction! Here’s my walkthrough to Battle for
Naboo’s missions!

Mission 1- Escape from Theed.
Objectives- Rescue your commander.
Recommended craft- Gian Speeder, since it has 2 rapid-fire lasers and a
chargeable Heavy laser. There's no better choice!

First things first: your Captain (Captain Kael) is a blundering idiot. Now
that you’re prepared, you can start the mission! Simply drive forward at the
start (I favour ploughing through most of the droids instead of shooting
them, it’s great fun) and follow the path. You will eventually come to a
section where your Captain is being attacked by some Destroyer Droids. Shoot
them down, you may even want to use one or two of your Speeder’s secondary
weapon missiles on them. Once you’ve mangled all four of them, Captain Kael
will begin to move and he’ll tell you to follow him, so do it. Just keep
driving along until you come to a section where Captain Kael starts being
attacked by 3 more Destroyer Droids. Punish the fools, and once again,
Captain Kael will take off. Follow him and after shooting through a few
groups of droids, you will come to a circular section with MORE Destroyer
Droids. Your Captain will stop again, so start destroying the Droids until
you hear Kael say, “Watch out!” Spin around and shoot the AAT (aka tank) and
if there’s any more Destroyer Droids left, get rid of them. Once you’ve done
it, there’ll be a short cut-scene and…MISSION COMPLETE!
ADVANCED SHIELDS: You can get a craft upgrade  (or a bonus) in this level.
When you reach the part where Captain Kael stops for the second time, go to
the right and you’ll see an AAT. Demolish him and you’ll find he was
protecting a small little area- which has the Advanced Shields upgrade
inside!

Mission 2- Neimodian Plunder
Objectives- Protect and escort the Captain to the swamp.
Recommended craft- Believe it or not, the Heavy STAP is the best for this
mission because it has superior maneuverability and 8 Missiles (more than
the Flash Speeder). Use the N-1 (Naboo Starfighter) after you get to the
hangar.

You actually have a choice of whether to use the Heavy STAP or the Speeder.
As soon as you start the mission, you’ll see a few droids on bikes. Destroy
them and any other bad guys on your radar until you hear Captain Kael sat
that a droid is on his tail. Help him and shoot the droid that’s following
him. Now follow behind Captain Kael, shooting any droids you see as you go.
Soon, three droids will appear as you turn a corner. Shoot them all, and
then head up the mountains ahead. After the cut-scene, zip a bit to the left
if you can’t already see the droids. Blow away all three of them, and then
wait for a few seconds. You will notice some droids in the distance, who are
slowly coming towards you, shooting at the houses. Circle the block of
houses, as the droids come from all sides, and shoot them when they appear.
When you’ve shot them all, you’ll hear the Captain say, “Excellent!” After
the next cut-scene, follow Captain Kael again down the path. Shoot the
droids as you go (but don’t go out of your way to get them if you miss) and
for some amusement you can even shoot the two Droid Starfighters that pass
overhead. I advise you to go a bit slower from here though, as there’s an
AAT who can easily kill you if you’re already damaged and are not careful.
You might want to use a missile or two on him, then cross the bridge and
kill the next AAT. Finally, go down the small hill at the end and shoot (or
avoid) the last AAT. Go into the hangar and get the police cruiser. Fly to
the right and you’ll soon see a big patch of ground where it is a strange
dark green colour. Fly towards there and the mission is complete!

Mission 3- Naboo Bayou.
Objectives- Protect Rowan’s houseboats.
Recommended craft- The best vehicle for this mission is easily the N-1
Starfighter because of it's superior speed and power.

Easy! From the start of this mission, fly forward and shoot down the three
Trade Federation Gunboats (those big grey boats) that are attacking the
small houseboats. Once that’s done, your Captain will tell you that there
are Droid Starfighters approaching- simply fly to the left and destroy the
two Droid Starfighters. Now go forward (if you’re feeling disorientated,
just go the way the houseboats are) and you’ll see four more Droid
Starfighters, flying in a diamond formation. Take them all out. Once the
cut-scene is finished, follow Captain Kael. Before long, the lucky Captain
will have Droid Starfighters on his tail, so help him out. Now turn to the
left around the huge hill and you should see a small house on a tiny island
in the middle of the area. It’s being attacked by lots of Droid
Starfighters! Strangely enough, this man’s house is far stronger than
everyone else’s in the entire level. Shoot down all the Droid Starfighters,
and you’ve finished this mission!

Mission 4- Smuggler Alliance
Objectives- Locate Smuggler in the mountains.
                - Save homestead from attack.
                - Protect smuggler from attack.
Recommended craft- The Flash Speeder is great for this mission for its
better accuracy and superior speed.
With that said, if you’re confident of your ability to not get shot too much
by the droids, the Gian Speeder might be a good craft to use. The Gian
Speeder’s heavy laser is very handy against those AATs.

Drive forward, and you’ll soon see a few houses being shot at by some droids
on bikes. Dispose of them and follow the path onwards. I strongly advise you
to not drive on the actual path however (as there iare HEAPS of droids) so
stray to the side of the path and you should be okay. After the cut-scene,
race in front of the huge ship and take out the AAT. Now keep driving
forward, sticking to the left of the path, shooting ALL of the AATs as you
go. Make sure you don’t fall down the side of the cliff though, or you will
die straight away. Use the radar to ensure you don’t miss a single AAT.
Providing that ship doesn’t get shot at too much and go down, you’ll
complete the mission!
ADVANCED MISSILES: To obtain the advanced missiles upgrade, protect those
houses at the very start of the mission like normal but, just as you shoot
the last droid, look for another green dot on the radar (which signifies
good guys). Go to where the dot is and you’ll see that it is a man being
shot at by two droids. Destroy them both and the man will get into a speeder
and tell you to follow him. Do this and he’ll lead you to his house. He’ll
unlock the gates in front so you can pick up the upgrade!

Mission 5- Hutt’s Retreat
Objectives- Protect and escort smuggler to his base.
                - Prevent destruction of smuggler’s base.
                - Free the captured Naboo pilots.
Recommended craft- The recomended path for this mission is by taking the
air, so at the beginning you should use your Flash Speeder to get to the
Hangar quicker and then select the Naboo Starfighter.

Right at the start, you’ll see some droids on bikes. Destroy them then turn
the corner. You will see a hangar here, and you have the choice of whether
to stay as a ground force vehicle or change to an aircraft. Personally, I
recommend the aircraft. Once you are in the Police Cruiser, continue going
forward. You will come up against waves of mines and Droid Starfighters.
Simply shoot down the Droid Starfighters to stop them attacking Borvo’s ship
and then shoot the mines to continue onwards. Eventually, you will reach an
area where you are warned of upcoming AATs. Shoot them both, and continue a
little further and you will see an area that looks different to the others.
One reason is because there is houses and other buildings there; another is
because there are lots of Starfighters and AATs. Still, destroy them all
and, after the cut scene, turn around and do the same again. After all Trade
Federation forces are eliminated, you will have completed the mission.

Mission 6- Disruption of Comm 4
Objectives- Disable all Shield Generators.
                - Knock out the Communications Satellite.
Recommended craft- I don’t think I even need to say this, but the N-1 is the
craft to use!

As you start, you’ll see a huge contraption in front of you. This is the
Communications Satellite, and although you have to destroy it, there’s no
point trying now- it has shields. Instead, look on your radar. That familiar
orange wedge should appear, so use it to find which way you should be
flying. Just keep flying forward when you’re heading the right way.
Eventually, you should either a) see a Satellite, or b) see the orange wedge
suddenly swing behind you on your radar. This means you’ve passed the
satellite, so wrench the joystick back and your ship should do a loop. Once
you’ve come back down, you should be able to see it somewhere. Now, start
shooting at it with your blasters. Use only two missiles on it. Once it’s
destroyed, look at the radar. Again, an orange wedge will have come back to
tell you where to fly. Fly that way and repeat what you did for the first
satellite. A good tactic to defeat them is to fly away from the satellite
for a while, then turn around sharply and start blasting it as you fly
towards it. A very important thing- do not so much as scrape the satellites,
as you’ll instantly die. Again, use only two missiles. Now the radar will
show the last satellite- do what you did for the previous two. Remember-
when you hear that strange ‘whoosh’ sound, that means that a mine is
following you. A good idea is to turn around and put your thrusters on.
Then, after a couple of seconds, spin around. You should see it in the
distance flying towards you, so destroy it quick! After you’ve defeated the
last satellite, go to where the radar tells you for the last time. The
Communications Satellites’ shield is gone, so my advice is to fly at the top
of it (ignore the missile turrets). Now, quickly shoot all the missiles you
have left (3 should destroy it instantly) at the fat, bulbous part at the
top of the Satellite. Done!

Mission 7- Glacial Grave
Objectives- Destroy all Trade Federation Bases.
                - Steal a Trade Federation Gunboat.
Recommended craft- Again , the N-1 is best for its speed and power.

One of the most important things in this mission is to stay with your
wingmen. Help them to take out the turrets on all of the platforms at the
start. Then shoot the mines from afar. Follow the other pilots and you will
come to an area heavily guarded with turrets. Destroy them all with your
fellow pilots, then follow them when you hear Captain Kael say, “Good job.”
You will need to shoot some Droid Starfighters on the way, but then you will
arrive at another section with a platform defended by turrets, mines and
Trade Federation Gunboats. Help get rid of them until you hear Captain Kael
say, “Move on!” and “Back in formation!” Follow them and shoot the turrets
that you meet in the next section. Then continue through the narrow
passageway. You will come to a new area. Shoot out the turrets then swoop
into the grey hangar (with the lights in front of it). Get the Trade
Federation Gunboat and then turn left. Shoot down the large gateway and go
forward. Next mission!
ADVANCED BOMBS: At the section defended by the turrets, mines and Gunboats,
wait until Captain Kael says, “Move on!” Now, follow the other ships but,
instead of taking the left fork that all the other ships take, go to the
right. Shoot out the couple of turrets ahead of you and then head left
around that corner. Quickly destroy the missile launcher on top of the tall
building and then destroy all the other turrets. Finally, shoot the small
house- inside is the upgrade.

Mission 8- The Andrever River
Objectives- Free all prisoners in detention camps.
Recommended craft- Any cheaters out there? Thought so. If you are in a
cheating mood, use the  RHUBARB! cheat to get the Swamp Speeder. Otherwise,
the Trade Federation Gunboat is your only choice. So much for making a
decision.

Be warned: this is one of the harder missions of the first half of the game.
Go forward along the river, shooting the mines as you go. A good idea is to
brake and look in the distance every couple of seconds and shoot any mines
in the distance you can see. Make sure you also shoot the turrets as you go
along- you’ll be able to hear them firing before you see them if you go
slowly. After the cut-scene, DO NOT destroy the Droid Starfighters that fly
overhead. If you do, more Starfighters will come and start shooting at you.
If you don’t shoot any of them, they won’t shoot you. Eventually, you’ll
reach a new, large area. It’s probably best not to waste time shooting the
turrets. Just go to the left and shoot the grey circular building on the
bank. This is one of the power sources- there’s two of them. Once you’ve
destroyed that one, head to the bank on the right and shoot the other. After
the next cut-scene, race after the Trade Federation Gunboat you see and
start shooting it. While you follow it, also look out for mines. Try
desperately to destroy all the Gunboats you see, as if you let any make it
to the camp, they’ll alert it. Still, you don’t have to shoot the Gunboats,
so if one makes it, life will just be slightly tougher. You must speed
around the area, shooting down all the air turrets (the turrets mounted on
grey blocks). It is most likely that you will die if you don’t shoot the
normal turrets too, so also try to take them out. Once you’ve shot down all
the air turrets though, you’ve completed the mission.

Mission 9- Sanctuary
Objectives- Protect and escort convoy to the ruins.
Recommended craft- The N-1 is again recommended but a great strategy is to
take the Police Cruiser to destroy all threats and then  go back to get the
N-1. It is a bit risky, though.

You will start this mission still as the Trade Federation Gunboat. Luckily,
you won’t need it for too long. First, head forward and a bit to the right
until you’re near the end- you should see a strange yellow and grey building
on the shore. Fire two bombs at it and it will explode. Now quickly zoom
around the lake, shooting all the AATs that are shooting at the boats you
have to protect. You may even want to use your bombs. Once all the AATs that
were shooting the boats are gone, you can go into the hangar on the left at
the end of the lake. I advise that you choose the Naboo Starfighter. Now,
shoot the AAT that’s in front of the hangar. Once it’s gone, just wait
around until the houseboats come out. They will be in speeders, and you must
protect them at all cost. As you go up the path, groups of (usually four)
Droid Starfighters will come and start shooting at you and the Speeders. Try
and shoot a few of them down as the pass by, but never follow them- you must
stay with the Speeders because many more groups will come. When they do,
also try to shoot them. Eventually, you’ll reach a section with six AATs.
Take them out as quick as you can, and the best way to do it is to go behind
them and shoot at them. Once they’re all destroyed, continue to escort and
protect the Speeders up the path. Finally, you’ll reach an area with some
strange looking statues etc. This is the ruins- shoot any remaining Droid
Starfighters while the Speeders go in, and once you hear the sound signify
they’ve made it, follow where they went to complete the mission.
RAPID FIRE BLASTERS: When you reach the end and are about to go to the
ruins, turn to the right and you should find a path leading you through the
mountains. Once through, you should see a volcano-like structure. This is
Devil’s Tower (use the TALKTOME cheat for more information). Turn to the
right and you should see a runway lined with lights. At the end of it is the
upgrade.

Mission 10- Search for Captain Kael
Objectives- Locate Commander’s downed Starfighter.
                - Stop Federation attack on Mining Operation.
                - Destroy Hutt’s Mining Operation.
                - Destroy Droid Bombers and AATs before they reach crash
site.
Recommended craft- I would recommend the Flash Speeder if you want accuracy
and speed, but if you are good at aiming and want a bit of extra power, give
the Gian Speeder a whirl.

Hooray! Captain Kael’s gone! If it was me, I wouldn’t go looking for
him…Anyway, from the start, follow the radar. Don’t stick directly to the
path, as there are simply too many droids. Don’t go too quick though, or you
might accidentally fall off the side of the cliff, which means instant
death. Shoot the two AATs as you cross the bridge- you might want to use a
missile or two here. Once you’re across the bridge, continue forward until
you reach the area where the ground is a big brown patch. Ignore the turrets
here, they’re not firing at you…yet! Oh, whoops. What a give-away. Destroy
the three AATs first and do try to do it quickly. After the cut-scene, zoom
around the area, firing at the turrets (that will now be firing at you).
When your shield gets low, go in that strange blue-coloured dome in the
middle- I have no idea what it is, but if you stay in there, it slowly
replenishes your shield. Great! Keep an eye on your radar, as it will tell
you when one of Borvo’s mining vehicles have come. There are three of them
to destroy, and you cannot let them get away. You would almost have to let
them get away though, as they are enormously slow. Once you have destroyed
all three of them, look at the radar. One of your co-pilots has sighted
Captain Kael. Follow the radar and get out of the mining pit. You will soon
see some Droid Bombers and AATs. Shoot them ALL. Take the first left turn
that comes up and head forward down there. Eventually, a ‘tear-jerking’
(note the sarcasm) cut-scene will come up, which is when you’ve completed
the mission.

Mission 11- Borvo the Hutt
Objectives- Locate and free prisoners.
                - Defeat Borvo the Hutt and free his prisoners!
Recommended craft- Without a doubt, the N-1.

With the terrible news that Borvo has betrayed you and has killed Captain
Kael, Lieutenant Gavyn Sykes is going on an explosive quest for revenge!
Naturally, this is one of my favourite levels in the game. You start out in
this circular area with ships going around you and turrets in front. Go for
the turrets first- fly around the small section, taking out all the turrets
on the tiny mounds. NOW we whomp those planes. Unfortunately, the other
ships are actually quite good. They are more agile than the Naboo
Starfighter you’re piloting and they are very good shots too. Still, even
with the odds stacked against you, some good old-fashioned dog-fighting (not
literally) will see you through. Once you’ve destroyed all the other ships,
shoot through the mines and go forward. After the cut-scene, follow Kol
Kotha. Unlike Borvo, he doesn’t betray you. Protect Kol on the way by
shooting the turrets that start shooting at him. Eventually, he’ll lead you
to where a gap is. You can see Borvo’s ship through there. If you’re
skilled, you can actually take out 2 or 3 of the turrets before the
cut-scene. After the cut-scene however, I suggest you go for the turrets
first. Go in a circle around Borvo’s ship, shooting all the turrets you come
up against as you go. Then, once you’ve destroyed all 8 of the turrets, take
out the last 2 missile turrets on the central platform. Now we aim for
Borvo’s ship. I’m not sure if it matters, but shooting at the side of
Borvo’s ship is certainly the least dangerous way of destroying him, so use
your last missiles on him. Then make runs from one side to the other,
turning around and then shooting at Borvo as you fly towards him (like you
did in the sixth mission for the Satellites). Eventually, half of his ship
will break off- revenge has been had!
HOMING MISSILES: One of the best upgrades! At the part when you have to
follow Kol, start flying to the left instead of following him. Keep looking
at the islands your flying over- you should eventually fly over a smaller
island that has for trees clustered together on one side. In the middle of
the trees is the upgrade, but I suggest you shoot the trees first so you
don’t crash into them!

Mission 12- Liberation of Camp IV
Objectives- Find and free the prisoners from Camp IV.
                - Protect the prisoners as they escape.
Recommended craft- Start with the N-1.You will then be forced to go to the
Heavy STAP. Once you get to the 2nd hangar with the Speeders, wait until you
are badly damaged before you get the Gian Speeder. Once you finished
destroying all the shield generators and freeing all the prisoners , grab a
Flash Speeder from that 2nd hanger and finish the mission.


This is the hardest mission in the game, as well as the longest. In fact, it
was originally designed to be two missions! (You can see this from the brief
pause in the middle of the mission). Anyway, onto the walkthrough. At the
start, follow the other pilots- shoot down any turrets you see, then fly
back out of the cove and turn right. Now continue forward and then turn
right and follow the lake. Keep flying through the little passage and you
will eventually come out into a large area. There will be a hangar in the
distance, shoot the turrets on the hangar. Now help your friends destroy ALL
the Droid Starfighters. You should have had a lot of practice as this from
all the other missions. Once they’re all destroyed, a cut-scene will show
you flying into the hangar.
The mission isn’t over yet! I warned you about that brief pause, didn’t I?
You will have noticed that you are now in the dodgy and quite frail Heavy
STAP. Still, you need to get into Camp IV. So, try and shoot the turrets out
from a distance. Do not shoot those grey crafts next to you, because if you
follow them, you can pass the laser gates. Once through, security will be
alerted in the form of two droids on STAPs. Blow them both away and then go
up the mountainside to your left. Don’t fall off the side, because you’ll
die instantly if you do. Shoot the AAT as you go up. Now is where the whole
‘saving people’ thing starts. Do you see the buildings enclosed by the grey
walls? Don’t try and go through the laser gates, because you’ll lose health-
and you can’t get through anyway. Instead, look to the right of the laser
gate- you should see a shield generator. It’s a white, circular thing (which
you might recognise from mission 8, The Andrever River) and you should blow
it up immediately. This will de-activate the laser gates so you can go
through. Once you’re in the small area, you should see a building that looks
a little bit like a hangar, except with a red door. There are quite a few
buildings that look like this in this mission because these buildings house
the captured prisoners. Anyway, keep shooting at the door until it breaks.
Now just leave- I wouldn’t bother looking after the civilians, as they
always seemed to survive without my help, so don’t worry about them. Turn to
the right and take out the turrets on both sides of the gate from a
distance, then go through the gate way. See that hangar? Don’t go into it
until your STAP is really damaged, because you might as well make use of the
STAP you’ve got. Still, if your STAP is already about to crumple, drive into
the hangar to get the awesome Gian Speeder. If you just came out of the
hangar, turn right, if you haven’t gone into the hangar yet, turn left.
Shoot the turrets at the end of the area, but you can’t exit this area yet
because you need to de-activate the laser gate. You should see another area
enclosed with a grey gate to your left. There’s no way in, though- or is
there? Behind the gate at the back you should see something that looks like
green boxes. Back away, then shoot at them. It turns out that they’re
actually explosives, and it’ll break a hole through the fencing for you to
get in. Shoot the droids first, then shoot the doors of the prisoners’
buildings again. Once they’ve all been broken through, look around and you
should see a shield generator that looks like the first one you saw. Destroy
it, then go back out of this enclosed area and go through the gate just
opposite from where you just were. Head up the mountain- carefully, because
if you fall off, it’s instant death- and you should reach the top, where
there is two shield generators. Cripple them both and then go back down the
mountain slowly. Now you can go through the gateway I first told you about
(to your right). Now follow the radar- you will fall down a hill (but won’t
die) into a new area filled with turrets and AATs. Shoot some of the AATs
(you might want to use the Gian Speeder’s secondary laser, which can be
charged up by holding left-C) and also shoot some of the turrets, try to do
this from a distance. Finally, you should see another area enclosed by that
familiar grey fence, but that doesn’t matter. Go to the back of it and start
blasting away at the fence. You should destroy it before too long. Now
quickly speed up this mountain and shoot the last shield generator (and
turret). Go back down- once again, DON’T FALL OFF- and, when you’re at the
bottom, follow the radar and go through the last gateway to finally escape
Camp IV!
ADVANCED BLASTERS: When you’re on the last mountain and have just destroyed
the last shield generator, don’t go back down yet. Continue up the mountain-
a bit to the left, or you might fall off- and, once you’re up, you’ll see
the bonus!

Mission 13- The Queen’s Gambit
Objectives- Find and rescue Panaka.
                - Find the Naboo airbase and take a Bomber.
                - Stop the Federation Convoy.
Recommended craft- Start with the Flash Speeder , and when you get to the
Airbase , take out an N-1. It is MUCH better (not to mention faster…) than
the Bomber. Try taking out all the ATT's to complete the mission earlier (if
you have all golds , do some damage with the N-1 and then go back to the
Hangar and grab an Infiltrator).

Go straight forward and you’ll see a few houses being attacked by droids on
bikes. Luckily, you’re in the mighty Gian Speeder, so race around blasting
all the droids you see. Once they’re all gone, go to the right and you
should see another house. Destroy the last three droids there. After the
cut-scene, head forward, but don’t follow the AAT to the left, instead, keep
going ahead. Cross the bridge and start charging up one of the Gian
Speeder’s secondary lasers. Let it rip at one of the AAT’s you see here, and
shoot the other one until it is destroyed too. Now go into the hangar just
to the left of what the AAT’s were shooting at. You’ll now emerge in the
Naboo Bomber. The first thing you’ll notice about the Naboo Bomber is that
it couldn’t out-fly a dead snail. The second thing you’ll notice is that its
blasters aren’t anything even approaching rapid-fire. Still, you’ll have to
make do with it, because you aren’t getting anything else! So fly out and
into the corner on the right-hand side, and then take the right path from
here. Start shooting the mines in the air as you go. Eventually you will
come up to some buildings with turrets. It’s not necessary to destroy the
turrets, but try to shoot them as you go anyway because they don’t find it
to hard to hit you with the speed you’re at. Once you’re past the buildings,
you will see a huge column ahead. It’s definitely not part of the scenery,
and you’ll discover this when you keep shooting at it, because it will break
and then topple over. You need to do this to three columns which you’ll see
as you fly along, because the columns partially obstruct the road, therefore
slowing the Trade Federation convoy down. Once you’ve given the last column
a pasting, keep flying forward and you’ll see a bridge. Just wait around
here until the Trade Federation arrives. Once they arrive, a craft will come
from the opposite side of the bridge and it will carry a red box after it.
It then stops, and puts the red box in the middle of the bridge. You have to
be fairly quick here, so quickly press left-C and an aimer will appear on
the ground. Keep flying until the target is approximately over that red box,
then press left-C again. Your Bomber will- appropriately enough- launch a
bomb. The cut-scene now starts, to show the red box explode and the bridge
collapse. Hooray!

Mission 14- Panaka’s Diversion
Objectives- Help Panaka create a diversion at the hangar.
                - Rescue Group 2 from the ambush.
                - Rendezvous with and protect the commandos.
Recommended craft- Use the beloved Gian Speeder on this one. It has great
armor and excellent weapons.

Okay, this is another great level! It’s in the same sort of style as mission
1, except larger and harder. Oh, and you also get to utilise the might of
the Gian Speeder. Top stuff! Anyway, blast away the three droids in front of
you as you start, then go to the left and shoot the other two droids. Turn
left at the end and turn right around the following corner. Blast all the
droids on the left, then stop and charge up a secondary laser. Now go into
the middle and fire it at the AAT in front of you. Go forward and blast the
AAT on the left that is facing away from you, then go slightly right and
continue forward. Now you can maul the AAT on the opposite side of the lake
if you want, then turn left and speed to the next wall where you’ll be
covered from the enemy fire. After the cut-scene, protect your friend (also
in a Gian Speeder) while he shoots through the metal bars crossing the
streets by shooting the droids. Every time he breaks through a bar, follow
him through to the next one. You’ll soon come to a part where you must go
over a flight of stairs. Shoot the AAT right next to you and the droid
there. Now follow your friend across the bridge, although I advise the more
health-conscious of you to destroy the AATs to your left and right so they
don’t shoot you. Once across, you’ll be led to a new area- it’s time to save
your friends that were in trouble in the cut-scene! Destroy the AATs and
Destroyer Droids to the right, and then shoot the two remaining Destroyer
Droids to your left. Now hang back while your friends go forward- two AATs
will come, and if you were following the other Speeders, you would have got
pumped full of lead (or should I say lasers?). Once you see the AAT’s turn
around with their back to you, speed forward and put them both out of their
misery. Then go to the left and turn left again. You’ll see a new area with
Destroyer Droids and AATs. Shoot the two Destroyer Droids that are near you
when you start, then shoot the AAT in the corner to your right. Now go to
the other end and shoot the other two Destroyer Droids and the AAT. A good
idea here is to go up on the ramp to your right so you can shoot the
Destroyer Droids and the AAT from a vantage point. Anyway, once they’re all
destroyed, move forward through the next archway. Turn right and shoot the
droids to your right, and then turn right again. You will be in an area with
lots of droids. Shoot them all, starting with the ones on the floor and at
the large metal door and all the ones on the higher areas. Once they’ve all
been shot, wait. A large green ship will come as well as the other Speeders.
Some commandos will come out of it and they will run up to the grey door.
They will then set explosives on it. When you see them start to run away,
the door should blow open a few seconds later. Now zoom through the
blown-open doorway and down the stairs until you reach an archway. You
should see a strange-looking object to the right of the archway- this is
Captain Panaka, but don’t shoot him, because you’ll fail the mission.
Instead, go through the archway and shoot all the AATs. Once they are all
destroyed, you’ll have completed the mission!

Mission 15- Battle for Naboo
Objectives- Decimate the Droid Fighter Fleet.
                - Destroy the Control Ship’s tractor beam generators.
                - Target the ship’s defensive shield generator.
                - Destroy the Control Ship.
Recommended craft- Definitely the Naboo Starfighter.

Truth is, some people find this level extremely difficult. Others find it so
easy that they can complete it blindfolded with their hands tied behind
their back and with the television turned off, reacting only to the sounds
of laser fire- just like me. Err, maybe. Anyway, you’ll have to be very good
at dog-fighting for the first part of this level. You are warned as you fly
ahead that there is some Droid Starfighters coming. How many Droid
Starfighters might that be, I wonder? Let me just say that, if you don’t
swoop down as soon as you see the squadron of Droid Starfighters
approaching, you will have about fifty thousand lasers pumped into you in
the space of three seconds. If you didn’t lose your cool and you swerved
down, then you should have avoided most- if not all- of the enemies’ fire.
Great! But that’s only the beginning. Now you have to swerve around and
start destroying them. There really isn’t many hints I can give you here,
although one piece of advice is that you should look around until you find a
Starfighter on its lonesome, and then concentrate on taking it out. Keep
looking on your radar to find more Droid Starfighters, but when you’ve shot
enough of them, a cut-scene will start. Okay, the cut-scene shows you that
there is a tractor beam covering the front of the huge Control Ship. If you
didn’t see your friend take it out in the cut-scene, what you’ve got to do
is shoot the areas with the red lights around them in front of you. There
are three of them, as one of your pals (as I just said) took one out in the
cut-scene. Fly toward each area, shooting it with you laser. Once it
explodes, turn around and fly away from the Control Ship, then turn around
and begin firing at the next lighted point. Once you’ve shot all three, you
can fly through. But what now? Well, swerve up and a bit to the right until
you are flying over the Control Ship’s right wall. Once you fly closer to
the back, you’ll see three gun turrets there. Try to approach them from the
side, and even try blasting them from far-away. A good idea might be to use
a missile or two on them. Once all three are destroyed, the easy part
begins. See the section if front of the huge satellite at the back of the
Control Ship? You should see a grey block which has- suspiciously enough-
the same sort of lights that the tractor beam points you were shooting at
before had! Begin blasting it, and use ALL your remaining missiles on it.
This is the ship’s defensive shield generator! You’ll know if you’re
shooting at the right thing because, if you are, ‘green spots’ should appear
on the block wherever you shoot it. Use the same tactic as before, when you
get close to it, turn right around, fly away from it for a bit, then turn
around and fly towards it, shooting as you go. When you’ve finally shot it
enough, it’ll explode- and you’ll have finished Star Wars Episode 1: Battle
for Naboo!

Or have you finished? (Course you haven’t! Read on!)

Bonus mission #1. Obtained by earning bronze medal or above on all previous
missions.
Mission 16- Trade Federation Secrets
Objectives- Protect the base from attack.
                - Protect the escaping transport.
Recommended craft- Some people don’t realise that there is a hanger on a
small island to the left of where you start. You can make use of it by
grabbing a Police Cruiser and when you are out of missiles or you are almost
dead, get the N-1.

Your objective for the main part of this mission is to protect the base from
hordes of Trade Federation forces. As you start, you’ll hear that there is
Droid Starfighters dead ahead. It’s true- it won’t be long before you’re set
upon by several of them. Shoot them all down turn back until you’re facing
the same way that you were at the start. Now you’ll see lots of droids on
bikes coming- these are actually much more difficult to take out than the
Starfighters. My advice is to fly very low to the ground, as it’s easier to
destroy them from there. There are turrets on the base, but DO NOT destroy
them- they’re on your side, and are actually quite helpful. Before long,
you’ll see six AATs in the distance slowly approaching. First, fly past
behind them and you should see a big yellow craft. Destroy it, then spin
quickly back round. It’s time to teach those AATs the what-for, so attack
them from behind. Continue in this vein, destroying all the Trade Federation
forces until a huge red craft appears. Leave it alone, it’s on your side. It
should stop and hover over the base- a couple of seconds later, it will take
off. Now is when you can leave the base. You need to follow the red ship,
shooting all the Droid Starfighters that are attacking it. Use your homing
missiles here, if you’ve got them. Eventually, the craft will make its way
out into the sea- as soon as it flies up into the clouds, you’ve completed
this mission!

Bonus mission #2. Obtained by earning silver medal or above on all previous
missions.
Mission 17- Coruscant Encounter
Objectives- Destroy Darth Maul’s ship.
                - Protect civilian targets.
Recommended craft- All together now: “Get the N-1!”

I actually really like this mission. When I first played it, I was in awe of
the amazing level design- Coruscant really was like I had always imagined
it. Another reason I really like this mission is because it is home to the
BEST UPGRADE IN THE GAME! (But more on that later.) As soon as you start,
you’ll see Darth Maul’s Sith Infiltrator in front of you. You almost NEED
homing-missiles for this mission. If you don’t have them, just start aiming
at him and begin trying to blast him, if you do, then hit left-c and wait
for the lock-on. Keep following him- be warned, he is very agile. Still,
when you lose him (and it’s not hard to do) simply look on the radar. Search
around again until you find him. Stick with it, keep shooting him/locking-on
(if you can) and you’ll prevail!
CLUSTER SEEKING MISSILES: Amazing! You won’t find a better upgrade in this
mission anywhere, and it’s not hard to see why. To get it, turn around 180
degrees at the start and go a bit down into a tunnel. Go forward a bit
through the tunnel then turn around. You should see the upgrade hovering
innocently in a small cave, a little to the right. The reason this upgrade
is so good is because when you fire one missile, it splits up into SEVEN
(you read right), and each missile locks on to an individual target. If
there is more than one target, that is. Believe me, it’s jaw-dropping stuff.

Bonus mission #3. Obtained by earning gold medal on every previous mission.
Mission 18- The Dark Side
Objectives- Protect Trade Federation Forces.
                - Destroy all Naboo Forces.
Recommended craft- Sith Infiltrator!

This mission is one of the most amazingly good ideas I have seen in a
videogame, EVER. And believe me, that’s a lot of games. The reason for this
is- as you’ll be able to see from the ‘objectives’ section above- you are on
the Dark Side of the force. All Darth Maul fans rejoice, as you’ll be able
to play as the red-faced meanie himself! In his Sith Infiltrator, that is.
Get ready for an absolutely mind –blowingly fun mission. Straight off,
you’ll see the normally dreaded (they’re on your side, remember?) AATs being
blown away by some savage Gian Speeders. Blast the Speeders and you’ll see
that there’s a few more coming from in front of you, so aim well and take
em’ down. Accuracy is essential for this mission. Now follow the radar and
you’ll see some Gunboats and Droid Starfighters being ‘cruelly’ attacked by
some Naboo Starfighters and Police Cruisers. Get rid of the Naboo planes and
then take out all the enormously weak Gungan Transports. Now go to the big
island in the middle- there are four Gungans there. Simply pretend they’re
all Jar-Jar and you should have the ‘heart’ to put them out of their misery.
Soon, a bunch of Naboo Starfighters will start flying in. Begin
dog-fighting, but don’t worry, they’re not too difficult. Once they’re all
gone, this brilliant misison will have come to end, and you’ll have finished
Star Wars Episode 1: Battle for Naboo!

5.  CHEATS
There are many cheats in Battle for Naboo, ranging from the run-of-the-mill
to the weird and wonderful. Still, I advise you try them all (but wait till’
you’ve finished the game before you use some of them).

DROIDEKA- Gives you Advanced Shields.

TALKTOME- One of the best codes I’ve seen in a game, ever. This code allows
you to hear the developers of this game talk about how the made the
particular level you’re on. Listen carefully- they make a lot of great
jokes!

WAKEUP- You can now access the ‘Concert Hall’ in the Option menu. You can
listen to all the different songs in the game! Great.

NASTYMDE- Makes the game harder. I can still beat it with a strait-jacket
on, mind.

PATHETIC- Gives you infinite lives, but a warning- this cheat won’t work for
medals. It still remembers if you’ve died before.

OVERLOAD- All the stats for your craft will be maximised. Better firepower,
faster, etc.

EWERDEAD- One hit kills, but it affects you AND your opponents, so be
careful. It’s practically impossible to beat the 15th level without losing a
life with this cheat on, but if anyone manages, let me know (via email- look
before the prologue).

RUAGIRL?- Entering this code will turn a part of the craft you are using
pink. Strange….

LOVEHUTT- View a photo of the team that made this game.

DRJEKYLL- Play a mission with water in it and you will notice that the water
surface is very rough. Interesting…

LEC&FIVE- This cheat allows you to access all levels up to and including the
first bonus mission (Trade Federation Secrets). CHEATER!

KOOLSTUF- You can view some fantastic art by the team who made this game in
the Options menu. Wow.

RHUBARB!- A new cheat here, thanks to Phantasmagoria! (See ‘Contribute’
section). This cheat unlocks the Swamp Speeder, a craft sails on water, like
the Trade Federation Gunboat (although better, in my opinion!)

Huge thanks to my new e-mailer, JaydeWizard and, of course, Phantasmagoria!

BYENABOO- Unlocks bonus mission 1.

BADTEMPR- All of you who haven’t made it to the very last bonus mission (and
arguably the most enjoyable mission in the game) are going to love this one:
it unlocks the very last bonus mission, The Dark Side!

WAKAWAH!- Unlocks all crafts. Yep.

LCK&LOAD- Gives you double the amount of ammo of your craft’s secondary
weapon.

CANTMISS- Activates the homing missiles upgrade!

&OVRKILL- Activates the homing cluster missiles upgrade. Have fun with this
one!

?NUNAPWR- Activates the advanced missiles upgrade!

BOOM!?- Activates the advanced bombs upgrade.

TOOWEAK?-Unlocks all the normal levels.

&&A!AT- Enables you to play as an AAT on some missions. Great!

SIENAR&!- Allows you to use the Sith Infiltrator!

EOCOAROS- Turns the Gian Speeder into a 1969 Buick Convertible. Looks like
those boys at Factor 5 are having a bit of fun. Now that I thinks of it,
this cheat’s a bit like the one that was in Rogue Squadron (which allowed
you to pilot a flying car)!

6. FAQ

Q. I’ve heard that you can achieve something called ‘Platinum’ in missions.
Is this true?
A. Yes, it’s true enough. The Platinum medal is the medal after Gold. You
can claim a Platinum medal on every mission, but be warned- they’re very,
very hard to get. Also, I recently acclaimed some information from a Jedi
Knight known as Phantasmagoria, who has told me that earning Platinum medal
on EVERY mission will unlock a secret craft for you to use- the AAT! Cool.

Q. I’ve heard tell of some cheats that allow you to get the Sith Infiltrator
and more. Tell me the cheats!
A. I’ve lately found out that you CAN unlock the Sith Infiltrator. See the
‘Cheats’ section. It’s also true you can unlock some other crafts that you
can’t get otherwise. Just go to the cheats section, do you hear?

Q. You fool! You told me before that there wasn’t a cheat for the Sith
Infiltrator!
A. You want to start a fight, huh?

Q. Alright, alright! Keep your hair on. Can you tell me if Battle for Naboo
is made by the same people who made Rogue Squadron?
A. It says so on the back of the box.

Q. Oh. So it does.
A. Yes.

Q. Is this better than that recent Star Wars game on PS2?
A. Absolutely. For the PS2 game, you have to use two joysticks and press a
button to shoot- all at the same time! Hardly ideal- unless you have three
arms.

Q. Is Factor 5 making another Star Wars game for Nintendo?
A. Not for the Nintendo 64, but they are making one for the GameCube. It’s
going to be wondrous, that much is certain.

Q. Oh, and I have to bring it up again- you’re a loser! You didn’t know that
Sith Infiltrator cheat!
A. YOU’RE GOING TO DIE! (Distant sound of machine gun bullets and police
sirens.)
