                                Introduction
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

  This guide was created in Metapad and Microsoft Word. This guide is best
looked at size 10, Courier New. There is no kind of search system since it would
take too long to implement and change every time. But I think I will implement
it in Version 1.0, which is most likely my last version on this particular
guide.

  Well let's roll on with the guide then, shall we?

Version 0.0.7 [Date - 06/01/2007 20:31]:
   - Change to the layout of the guide.
   - Removed statistics.

Version 0.0.6 [Date - Sunday, 17 July 2005 20:29:51]:
   - Added the story section

Version 0.0.5 [Date - Monday, 04 July 2005 12:26:39]:
   - This is a refurbishment of the guide; I think it makes the guide much more
professional when compared with before.
   - Older Version history was trashed because it was useless.
   - Statistics, new Epilogue/Prologue added.
   - Edit Time is only with regard to when this new version of this walkthrough
was created, so it is only about version 0.0.5 not for the whole walkthrough.
   - This is written using Microsoft Word now, so that means all the spelling
mistakes are no more.
   - Guide slightly rewritten omitting grammatical errors.

  This game is a tricky game, since I can't make a guide for each level. The
game is hard in the fact it is a shoot out game. It is about a fighter shooting
out other fighters.

                                   Story
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

"Your once-peaceful [sic] nation has been under siege by General Zorbia and his
incredibly powerful armed forces from Halvary. They've advanced relentlessly
and you and your countrymen are standing with your backs to the wall- waiting
for the inevitable final strike.

According to the latest intelligence reports, the enemy is planning to strike
the fatal blow with some outside help.  Strong evidence exists that there will
be a commiuniqué sent by Halvary HQ to the allied forces waiting somewhere
along the NESW (Northeast/Southwest) communications network.  Could things get
any worse?

Actually, there's some good news to tell.  In addition to the report regarding
the communiqué, the intelligence organization has also been able to approximate
the locations of 2 enemy microwave stations in the NESW network!  These
stations pass radio signals along with the help of signal-boosting equipment.
If these locations are put out of commission, the enemy will be unable to
signal for help and will virtually be at your mercy!

You're the pilot of the 'Skycat' [Author's note: I own the nation, but I have
to fight for it as a pilot anyway?  If you ask me, Castro has it pretty
sweet...], an F-14XX fighter that is widely regarded as the baddest bird to
ever darken the skies!  You're waiting nervously for your orders aboard the
carrier Sega Enterprise, stationed some 200 miles (320 km) offshore in
international waters.  Your mission is to destroy the 2 locations' antennas and
signal booster complexes, and return to the carrier.  Your super-sophisticated
battle computer knows the course, and will guide you directly to your targets.
Whether or not you reach themiece, though, is entirely up to you!  Good Luck!"


-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Strategy
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    A Good strategy would be to watch where you are going. When you turn be
away that if you hold the turn button you will start to do wheel barrows in the
air (turn round and round repeatedly) and possibly crash. The main idea is to
get through the levels without crashes, I means that you should play the game
without crashing yourself.
    Not only can you crash yourself and loose a life, but so can the enemy. As
you go up stages more enemies will come towards you and will be more organized
in attacking, so be aware. When they attack they attack in groups and shoot
normally heat seeking missiles. You have to be careful since after a while they
will be too fast for you to shoot and you have to think about their missiles
too.
    This is what I did: When they came towards me I moved to the left once,
then the right the next time; and guess what, I never got hit. But when I stood
in the middle I got hit.
    Well, a safe place to be is on the sides, but they make it hard for you to
shoot at the enemy. Also, don't stay still at all costs. If you move to the side
you will make greater distance that if you went spinning to the side. One major
important thing is, look at your life gauge and keep it above half.
    5 Heat-Seeking Missiles will destroy you within seconds if they hit you,
but 5 normal missiles won't. But I would advise you to move left and right.
    Shoot when the enemy is about to shoot, or when the enemy has shot, because
they stay in the same position at those times so they are sitting ducks.

  Well, that is it. I cannot really do a Stage by Stage guide since the game is
flying through and shooting all you can see. I hope this guide was useful.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 1
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    The game starts and a bit later you will see a few planes come from behind
you from both left and right. And some time later more will come. A plane ahead
of you on the right should come into view now, then left, then right. Then
finally a group of planes will fly over you from behind and later another group.
And before the end you will see six planes ahead of you. You have to shoot them
all down before they shoot you, try using the strategy I gave before.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 2
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    Now stage two, well you haven't been giving a hard time yet? Its easy for
now.
    A few planes will come from behind you, then more and more. Later you will
see seven planes ahead of you, fly past them to see 3 left of you and siz right
of you and four in random positions ahead of you. After you shoot them down, you
will notice seven planes in the middle ahead of you. After them you will be
alone, but not for long, you will see three on the left of you and three more on
the right of you.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 3
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    This is your first recharge since the start, so use it well. Now shoot
down the semi-circle of planes in front of you. Then shoot down the three planes
after that. And shoot down or fly past the next ten planes in front of you. Then
three more to shoot at, then you will see another semi-circle which your must
shoot at, then another semi-circle. Now at the end you will see three to your
right and three more too your left. Shoot them all down and you're finished on
this stage, go onto the next.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 4
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    Shoot down the four in the middle and the next four. Then shoot down the
four to the right of you and the four to the left. Then five more in front of
you. Now shoot down all the planes spread across the screen. Now shoot down the
three to the right of your and the four to the left of you and the three in
front of you. Finally you will see four to your left, and your have completed
this stage.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 5
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    Well, this is a very unusual stage. Since you cannot die here, atleast not
my the enemy, so use this to recharge and relax. Now move on to Stage 6.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 6
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    Now your back on attack mode, you will see three in the middle and another
three. And later on a bird formation of planes in the middle. Then three more
planes in the middle. This game is high on three, eh? Then another three in the
middle and one on the right, and more planes in the middle. Three more on the
right. Now a circle formation which you can go through the centre or attack all
the planes, then one more formation. Now more planes from behind you, two planes
in the middle. Now you got your formidable enemy, who stays behind you and tries
to get you down by gunfire. Your only hope is to get him in front of you and
shoot him down or just dodge him. And then you will bump into loads of planes
in front of you. Now after you have destroyed them you can go on to stage seven.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 7
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    You will see a few planes above you, and a plane getting you from behind.
Now shoot them down before the two planes that attack you from both sides. Then
you see a bird formation, and a group of planes going above you. Then a plane
will get you from behind, these behind planes are getting annoying!! Then you
will see more planes in the centre, and another plan from behind will attack
you. Now two planes form the right and three forms the left will attack. And
then another group in front of you, and finally a few planes in front of you and
a plane behind you. Now move onto the special stage.

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
                                   Stage 8
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

    Well, this is a bonus stage. You don't need to attack anything but the
towers. Look at the strategy for more help.

    Any question asked will be added to the FAQ so that it can help people in
the future.
    You can find the question's answer by searching the question.

  Guide Related Questions:

    1. I have submitted information to you for this guide but you have not
       added it.
    Answer: It is most likely that I have added it to the guide or it is
            already present in the guide. If it is not present in the guide and
            is not for a week after your contribution please contact me (refer
            to Contacting Me section).

    2. This guide is not the correct guide for this game.
    Answer: This has happened before, I had submitted a guide I wrote for the
            previous version of the game (e.g. a guide I wrote for Dragon
            Slayer 1 or 2 was submitted for Dragon Slayer Gaiden). If you find
            this to be the case for this guide then please contact me (refer to
            Contacting Me section).

    3. I submitted some information and you have used it as your OWN
       information without saying I was the one that submitted it.
    Answer: There are two possibilities here. Either I had already added it to
            the guide before I found your submission, or I had added your
            submission but forgotten to mark it as yours and credit it for you.
            Either way I am very sorry, as I should credit you for any
            submissions you provide and I will do so if you contact me (refer
            to Contacting Me section).

    4. You have stolen my work. This is theft damnit!
    Answer: I highly doubt I have stolen your work, but if I have please feel
            free to e-mail me saying so and send a copy of your work as proof
            that I have stolen off you. And if I reject your claim then you
            should request for my contribution to be removed to CJayC through
            the Support Ticket (I think).

    5. I submitted some information before but now I want to remove it.
    Answer: My answer to this varies, if the information you submitted was a
            small peice of information like a item location then I will most
            likely not remove your contribution. But if it is larger (e.g. a
            analysis of the game mechanics or RNG system) then I will most
            likely remove it due to your request.
