If
the outpost is destroyed
the game ends.
Use the
gun turrent to protect
the outpost. Use the left
and right arrow keys to
rotate and aim the gun
turrent. Press the spacebar
to shoot the gun. Hold
the spacebar down for
auto-fire.
Computer
controlled missile turrents
are attached to the outpost
and provide support. Additional
missile turrents are awarded
after each stage.
Fleet Command
has dispatched support
ships however they will
not arrive until later
stages. Like the missile
turrents, support ships
are computer controlled.
Additional ships with
increased power will arrive
in later stages.
The outpost
and all ships have a hull
rating. The outpost and
some ships are also equipped
with shields. Damage is
first inflicted on the
shields. Once the shields
are down damage is then
inflicted on the hull.
When the hull is knocked
out the outpost or ship
is destroyed. At the end
of each mission all remaining
ships are auto-repaired
which provides upto a
50 % repair in both shields
and hull. |
