Introduction
-----------------
If you think secrets are just the bonuses in
this game, you're WRONG! The true secrets of
Einhander are not just the ones you get, they're the
ones you see. (P.S. I gonna mention the S. Bonuses
in this FAQ too)

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1
------------------- Metropolis

S Bonuses
---------------
Bonus #1: Blow out all the neon signs.
Bonus #2: Destroy red ship that flys in.
Bonus #3: Destroy the bottom of the grieve (mini-boss)

Secrets
-----------
#1: Destroy the big ship quickly when going down the vertical
     shaft, another will fly in and will be carrying wasp. Destroy, Get.
#2: When in the tunnel before the (normal) boss, move forward as
     far as you can. When the screen turns, you see the rear of the
     Einhander.

Boss Secrets
------------------
#1: IF you have a powerful weapon, you can shoot off the head
     armor. While the "claw" is falling off, keep shooting the head,
     the little core should fly off immediately.
#2: (You must get the S bonus 3 first) When fighting the blue
     Drache, wait awhile, sometimes a gunpod will come out. It could
     be a wasp, vulcan or in very rare cases, a Juno.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Stage 2
------------------- Armored Trains

S Bonuses
----------------
Bonus #1: Destroy 2 hovering sauser guys and then the red one.
Bonus #2: Destroy 8-10 turrets one the first car.
Bonus #3: See above, only on the second turret car.

Secrets
-------------
#1: If you have a wasp, you can shoot all the cores or whatever
     they are, on the very first car.
#2: Destroy one of the guns on the garnele (mini-boss) and watch
     it malfunction.
#3: I have the jap version, so I don't know if it works in the American
     version. In the second half of the level, you will fly back on top of
     the train again. In front of you should be a disabled walker bot.
     DON'T shoot it, instead fly over it and blow up the core. Once
     the walker bot disappears, it should reappear on the centre of the
     screen. Weird!!!

Boss Secrets
------------------
#1: On hard, the boss will shoot little ships past you, and they will shoot
      you too.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage 3
------------- Supply Tunnels

S Bonuses
---------------
Bonus #1: Shoot the sausers bots real quick and then shoot the red one.
Bonus #2: Destroy 3-5 red cars when fighting the mini-boss.
Bonus #3: Destroy the hexagon thing at the top of the screen in the second
                half of the level. Destroy all the parts that fall out. Get flash.

Secrets
-------------
#1: When fighting the mini-boss, don't destroy the twin turret. After
     awhile, it will shoot purple lasers to these little yellow cars. They
     will produce 2 red laser beams going vertically.

Boss secrets
-----------------
#1: When it's back comes up and it fires 3 missiles out, fly behind him
     and watch the missiles blow. (On his head)
#2: The boss is so heavy that when he moves to one end of the room,
     it slants that way!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Stage 4
--------------Watery Warehouse

S Bonuses
---------------
Bonus #1: Once the submarine appears, shoot the body. (Preferably
                 with a hedgehog) When the body explodes, the turret
                  dettaches and trys the shoot you. kill it and get the Juno.
Bonus #2: Take the bottom path in the factory every time. You will
                 see a robot sliding on a slope near the end. Kill it, get
                 bonus.
Bonus #3: Destroy the grates, and get the bonus. If you got the second
                bonus, there will be a green ship there. Shoot it and it will
                fall to the grates and blow them up.

Secrets
----------
#1: If you have a cannon, you can do this trick. In the first half of the
     level, go under the water, and have the cannon down. When you
     see one of those orange boat bots, shoot it. It will sometimes
     flip over!
#2: Get a hedgehog from one of those orange boat guys. When the
     mini-boss is swimming in the water, fire some at it's head. It will
     blow up before he gets out! (I also got the fastest time to beat a
     mini-boss. Using my watch to time, I got 2 seconds from when it
     got out of the water!!!)
#3: Once you enter the factory, get the spreader. Switch it to the top.
     Go down, fire, get MOSQUITO.
#4: Get second bonus. When you are at the grates, fly past the green
     ship. The ship will turn around realistically (rotates the engines
     to turn.) A very good example of how realistic Einhander is.

Boss Secrets
------------------
#1: If you do not destroy the boss(without armor on) fast, it will
     literally give you HELL! (To see this happening, you will
     definitely need Gameshark or PAR)
#2: After the armor attaches on, you will see another core in the
     "mouth" area. Shoot it and the boss will fall out, leaving the
     armor for you to fight. It also has another attack now. It will
     create 3 giant polygons that spin around, don't shoot them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage 5
--------------Aerialport

S Bonuses
---------------
Bonus #1: Destroy all the "arms" before the mini-boss.
Bonus #2: Make the mini-boss fall down about 5 times, to
                get a flash, and the bonus.
Bonus #3: Destroy the red Laser beam ship near the end.

Secrets
-----------
#1: Shoot the engine of core of those bigger ships and they
     will fall to the ground and blow up.
#2: Once you flew through the giant wall, kill everything,
     after awhile, you will see 2 blue robots in the background.
     Don't they look like something in Stage 1?
#3: If you look at the background where the truck carrying the
     python stops. You will see and really weird brown-ish
     robot. Looks kinda like the Garnele...
#4: Get wasp, see truck, shoot it, get python.
#5: On hard mode the mini-boss will be SUPER-FAST! And will
     also have a move where he spins around and trys to swat you.

Boss secrets
------------------
#1: A special way to kill the boss. (Easier will gameshark)
     Get grenade or something that can go backwards. When
     the boss turns around to fire missiles or bouncy grenades,
     go to the core and shoot it, shoot it good! (sorry) The boss
     should die backwards!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stage 6
-------------Stratagem Spacecraft

S Bonuses
---------------
Bonus #1: Destroy as many of those ships that look like Einhanders
                as possible. Soon a red one will pop up. I wonder what
                you do next???
Bonus #2: Destroy a lot of those tubes things the come out the end.
Bonus #3: Destroy the tiny part that pops up on the Schwartzigiest.
                 A giant jellyfish comes out after you destroy the boss.
                 Kill this to get the 3rd bonus.

Secrets
------------
Since the level is so short, there is no secrets...

Boss secrets
-----------------
After you destroyed the part that pops up. you can do any of these.

#1: If you destroy the funnel thing at the bottom of the boss, the legs
     stop rotating.
#2: If you destroy the Schwartzigiest by destroying the funnel or
     the middle part, the jelly fish pops up earlier than usual.
#3: If you timeout on the boss or the jellyfish, giant lasers (from
     the "main unit" fires down and destroys it. The jellyfish will try to
     escape, but gets shot down anyways.
