This is the fourth time we have played this game in the Super League, but I think I was only around for two of them?
Last time we played Banshee, one player's score was deleted because they leeched the level 3 boss. Biscuit, who was moderating, didn't like people taking the 'P', and the player stormed off in disgust. To try to avoid that situation again, I've added a rule which says players should try not to loop the 3rd boss (the factory) more than 4 times. Veterans might do it in 2 loops. Novices might take 5 or more, but at least we should discourage deliberate score milking, so that everyone's scores are representative of the game, and not how much they can milk. Hope everyone can understand why this is necessary. If you want some help and tips, there were plenty on the old threads. |

It is important not to try to take down every possible enemy. The level is divided into "sections" like: two ships, aeroplane waves or lighthouses. There are usually two routes to destroy them (left or right) and rather only one should be taken to pass them. This way some more dangerous enemies can be avoided or some tokens can be collected.

The second level middle boss took me down. I must say that when there are less planes and more on ground units the game seems to be a bit easier. |

Here's my best effort. Neat game, bought that in 1995, but I'm not particularly good at this game Video of that effort: [ Show youtube player ] |

Congrats Trapshot on beating the all-tme high score. I hope you didn't milk the end of level 3 boss?

So there will likely be some headroom on the score for those that wish to milk! If anyone wants to watch a playthrough, I did another run yesterday on Amigalive that i've highlighted for you - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2049484692 Almost the same score, but slightly less this time.
