AHHHHHHHHHH. OMG. PLEASE HELP!!!

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Perhaps you should cool down and relax. The game aint that tough, the mission you said is just a walk in the park...

Still I'm not sure what your exact problem is, but I'm guessing that you get shot at pretty much? If that is so, try using a shield that is good against the enemy you're fighting with. Besides that, you can also evade combat for sometime if you're low on your shield, go to some asteroid field and get some cover behind a big rock. If you're in open space and there's nothing around, just you and a dozen enemy fighter ships....you can either: pray or fly really well... lol

happy gaming!

Btw, please dont use CAP on your post title, I think the forum rules doesnt allow this.

Proteus Tome...and yes, some of the fighters can get annoying(especially when Juni and the others race ahead, but any left over fighters from the shipyard use their disrupters on you alone). But with a fully outfitted ship, it isn't a problem.



Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless

a good offense is a good defense. a good defense is a good offense.

both of those are true. it may look as though they cancel each other out, but put it this way. evade when you need too, and maybe hide behind a few rocks. then when your shileds are recharged, jump out at em. i kick a lot of ass doing this.

I think you should be able to buy a HF from the base before you launch right? if you can, just buy that

Ya know..life is a game, a very complex game, the main difference from a computer game is that the game of life has no save reload button...

I used the Rhino after mission 2, then the Dromedary after mission 5. I had to use the Cavalier to beat the race against Hovis, but then went back to Mactan to get the Dromedary again as soon as I could.

Ship progression:
Starflier
Rhino
Dromedary
Cavalier
Dromedary
Anubis

In fact, I used the Dromedary until after Toledo, no problems.

Why dont you try to use Dromedary through to the end? If you succeed, it would be awesome, flying a whole damn freighter into the home of Nomads and kickin their a$$ with it too, heck, even without any torpedoes!

Post Fri May 16, 2003 4:32 am

hey man, you can win up to tekagi's place with the dromedary..

believe me, I tried.

After the tempation to buy the anubis just gets too much, and you end up buying it.. (1400 credits??)
