I think I've only actually managed to get points on the landing level only once or twice, but I still like the game. Still haven't beaten Lord Vector yet, but I've gotten to that part of the game several times so I must be doing something right at least! MissWings At 11:36 PM 6/3/2008, Bryan

Hi. sorry this one is late. I've checked the kvm games or whatever their called. Everything looks fine accessibility wise accept for the sector map on space troopers. with the game being so movement based, I'm slightly worried that not having that map will provide difficulties. I rather

Yeah, I had no real problems with Troopanum2. It was tough, but then, what's a game without challenge? Its been literally years since I played, and I agree dark, Vector was just crazy, but even he can be beaten with a little time and patience. This is definitely one of the more difficult games

Indeed, but imho the change in difficlty betwene Vector and the rest of the game seemed a bit mad. i got to the point where I could get to vector every time with at least four lives left and he'd always blow me away. I've got him sinse then of course, but I think it took me more time and

I usually listen for the lowest pitched shalleaps, get them first, and then go for the kill. If I have a few items which I don't use, I get the lifters as fast as I can then get the others. Kinda interesting how I do it. On Wed, 4 Jun 2008 05:40:53 +0100, Dark wrote: Hi Nicol. What you

Personally, i like to use ground nukes as soon as I hit three or four ships landed, and just for kicks I love switching to the rifle and nailing things, then quickly going back to my normal lasers, but that's just me being insane! I once tried the liquidator city on level 15 with just

That is a pretty fun battle, although I haven't gotten that far in quite a long time. Personally I like level fifteen, since it's composed almost entirely of Liquidators, entirely on easy Baby Black Hole. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to sleep with the sound of those things in my

Thanks for the tips dark. But I can't afford allowing a luner lifter to reach orbit as it will either dispatch a speed round or steal an item or points If it takes points or dispatch a speed round, that's still ok but its bad if it steals a special item. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

Hi Nicol, Actually, I think Baby Blackhole is fine as it is. Troopanum does have a pretty big learning curve so my best advice is to practice, practice, practice. Thos liquidators are hard and it is best to use your heavy weapons on them such as smart bombs if you are being totally swarmed by

Hi Nicol, true, but the upside is that the looner lifters don't hurt you physically. If they take away points it is better than than loosing a life. The speed rounds can be tough, but aren't impossible to beat. nicol wrote: Thanks for the tips dark. But I can't afford allowing a luner
