Steath mission

[Chris Stevenson]

The first time I played the mission, I completed it in the "U" fashion. Down, over, up, to crash site.

I have tried going through the middle, and personally, I think it is [i]easier[/i]. This is only if you come to the places where the walls come together tight. This allows only one unit to come at you at a time, therefore, you can pick them off, and as the next one comes at you, your armor can regenerate.

Going through the middle not only requires less "user input" because you don't have to move Andy (he just stands and fires, regenerates, fires, regenerate), it also takes much, much less time to complete the level.

Argh this level keeps kicking my butt. I can make it to the crash site no problem, it's lasting 10 minutes that seems impossible. My reserves never last until the end, and I'm left by myself trying to take out the last wave which is just too much. There's like 3-4 mech units and 7 or so infantry, against only Andy. I'm not sure where everyone is hiding along the right. I can lure some over but they overwhelm me on the ledge just as easy as anywhere else. They shoot at me just fine, and when there are lots of them I can't distract them all to the ledge so some inevitably make their way up to the crash site.

Andy pisses me off too. All too often he starts moving when I want him to just stay put and shoot.

I found it quite easy to navigate through the middle of the base. I killed all units inside the base, but Andy is not capable of destroying buildings. The gatling cannons are a pain in the butt, though.

was anyone else able to do this?

Hey izod91,
You're right that going through the middle is easier. Also the fact that you could wipe out the enemy inside the base without disabling the towers speaks highly of your skill.
Try this: Fight your way east through the base. Just before reaching the end, go south just a little and you'll find a Galaxite Processor. Shoot at the processor until the Bullpup arrives to go inside. Switch your focus to killing that dang Bullpup(Every load that he delivers will delay the game for you). It could take two assalts to kill him. You must think of your safety first. After that Bullpup is dead, turn your focus back to shooting the Processor(changing the speed to 8.0x will help to greatly speed this up). Your goal obviously is to run the enemy out of money. Once he's out of money the fun begins. Just go around taking out all the buildings with emphasis on the generators so as to disable all the towers from shooting you(especially those Gatling Towers). After you have wiped out everything, go make contact with Jana in the north east. Now it's easy to survive for the required time.

good luck,
qfly

Its fun to see the units spawn. Its also fun to shake your fist at them and grumble about cheating.

This mission is one of my favorites!! It's easy by going up top thru the OMNI base. you should use the little hill as a bunker for Andy so he can fire out. then leave the other units closer to the crash site.

Put the game to 100.00 speed after destroying the OMNI unit's inside their base so it's easier to drain their resources by firing at towers.

[trineroks]

how do you set it to 100!?

Maybe it's a pocket pc thing.
