1. ABOUT THIS FAQ

       Well, to start of let me say that this guide is for NO PROFIT at
all, so don't go around selling these, OK.  Now, the point of this FAQ is to
try to get you, the Terry player, to release your true potential and all
that mumbo bull crap.  And this FAQ emphasises more of Terry as in Advanced
mode ( sorry x-tra's ). And to make this short, I want to say that this
isn't a begginers FAQ, This is a FAQ for all Terry veterans out there.

2. ABOUT TERRY

       Alright, about Terry. Terry is the adopted child of Jeff Bogard who
was allegedly killed by Takuma Sakazaki, who was ordered by Geese Howard. In
the first FF, Terry, Andy and Joe teamed up to defeat Geese, actually, Joe
got shot, Andy got beaten by Geese and Terry defeated Geese.  Then, at the
second FF. Wolfgang Krauser( I thought it was Rudolph ), Geese's half-bro,
sought revenge for Geese. Then lead to him beating Terry and Terry
beating him in the end.
Finally in FF3, Terry is just hanging out when Cheng Sinzan Informs him of
the Secret Scolls of Immortality. He then goes in a wild goose chase to find
the scrolls. The scrolls end up being destroyed. That's 'bout it.

3.MOVES GUIDE

A. BASIC MOVES


Stand A- A basic left-hand jab. Nothing much to look at and does little
damage. I can't think of a situation in which I ever wanted to use this.

Crouch A- A crouching version of the Standing A, MUCH BETTER. Comes out
fast.  You can catch rolling opponents with these and combo into a B ver.
High-Angle Geyser.

Stand B- Far version is an exellent poke. The close version is kinda
useless.

Crouch B- Ducking left lick. can be used as sub for the crouching A. But not
as useful nor as fast.

Stand C- Hard Right Punch. A heavy hitting punch in the far ver. but a
double hitting gut punch in close. Used before a Power Charge( and you know
u can do after that :) )

Crouch C- Crouching Right punch. Can be sub to standing close C. An
important factor in his infinite.

Stand D- Standing Thrust Kick. Also an average poke. Nothing much except a
follow up after a Power Charge.

Crouching D- High sweep Kick. You typical sweep kick. It can be countered by
counter moves (eg. Mary's hcb+ D)


B. Special Moves


Power Wave(qcf+p)- Not as useful as before. You can use it's fading effect
to fool others.

Burning Knuckle(qcb+p)- Again not very useful. You can use it as a surprise
attack.

Crack Shot ( qcb+k )- A very useful move in land-air fights. Powerful juggle
after a Power Charge followed by a Rising Tackle.

Rising Tackle( dp+p )- An extremely useful move. EXCELLENT AUTOGUARD. High
damage. One of the best anti-air move yet.

Power Charge(hcf+k)- Terry's best move. It is a juggler's god. Nothing else
to say exept- USE IT!


C. DM/SDM's


Power/Triple Geyser- A good anti-air. But u must do it early. Nice wake-up
move if opponent isn't too close.
Does the most damage of his 2 DM/SDM's.

High-Angled Geyser- Cool looking move. not as Strong as Power Geyser. Use it
after u roll to the opp.s back and they're doing a move( heh heh traitor,
back stabber ).

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

4. COMBOS

Well, since there are hundreds of different combo variations, I'll just tell
you  the most useful ones.

~- means it has to be in corner
St.- means Jump C, Crouch/Stand C into.....
!!!- means first hit must be a counter

St., Power charge, power geyser
St., Power charge, high angle geyser
~St., power charge, crack shot, rising tackle
dn A x3, high angle geyser B
St., Power Charge, Jump D/C
!!! CD, Power/Triple Geyser

Note: After the powercharge, if u have a DM stock use Power Geyser. But if u
can do SDM's already, use the high-angle geyser if u used a B Power Charge,
use Triple Geyser if u used D Power Charge.

You can replace the Stand C by the following:
Stand D
Stand C (2 hits),dnfd C
Stand C (1 hit ), fwd A (2 hits)
Stand D, dnfd C
Stand D, fwd A ( 2 hits )

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

6. Techniques

VS the CPU(set at level 8[expert] difficulty)

Almost all of the CPU opponents have one pattern: Roll behind them
and attack. I'll list the more difficult CPU AI's

Terry-
Anticipate his A Rising Tackle and roll behind and beat his ass.

Kyo-
He usually jumps so use the C Rising Tackle. While he's getting up do a
combo, it will most probably hit.

Shermie-
Wait for her dashing grab thingie and combo her when she's close.

Billy-
Jump at him and do a Jumping D and continue into a combo of u'r choice

Blue Mary-
Wait 4 her sliding move and combo her after.

Yash/ O. Yash-
do a crouching A, wait for him to roll and combo him. He only rolls 3/5ths
of the time, he sometimes sweeps you.

O.Chris-
Go to the corner and keep juping backwards until he does a long recovery
time move (eg. C dp) and combo him.
