Introduction =============== Star Fox Command is the first handheld Star Fox and also the first Star Fox for the Nintendo DS. This game was released in North America on August 28th, 2006 and in Japan on August 3rd, 2006. This Star Fox game has compatibility with the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, supporting up to 4-player dogfights, and random battles at will. The Story Prologue: Years ago, a scientist named Dr. Andross became obsessed with controlling the Lylat System. He launched wave after wave of attack fighters from the remote planet of Venom and ordered them to strike Planet Corneria -- the heart of the Lylat System. However, four brave pilots who made up a squadron known as Star Fox finally put an end to the doctor's mad ambitions. Andross himself was defeated by the leader of Star Fox; a brilliant pilot named Fox McCloud. In the time that followed, Venom became known as a quarantine planet. Due to that reputation -- and the frequent patrols carried out by members of the Cornerian military -- it has been years since anybody set foot on the planet's surface. But after a period of quiet, Venom struck back with devastating attacks on the Lylat system. Any and all attempts at resistance were brushed aside, and soon all cities came under the grip of this new, terrifying enemy. The occupiers were known as the Anglars, and operated under the control of the Anglar Emperor. Their headquarters were located in the toxic Venom Sea, a vast ocean so inhospitable that it was believed no living thing could survive there. The members of Star Fox, the heroic and famous squadron that had come to Lylat's aid in her hour of need, had disbanded. Each pilot was living a new life, and it would prove a difficult task to bring the former team members back together. Fox McCloud, the team's leader, was wandering the galaxy with his friend ROB, a navigation robot that he inherited after his father's passing. Fox used this time to tie up a few loose ends and also ponder the course his life had taken. The Cornerian military hero, General Pepper fell ill, and could no longer lead as he once did. He recommended that Peppy Hare, Star Fox team member and father figure to Fox, be promoted and given command of all Cornerian forces. Brash pilot Falco Lombardi lived as a loner. He drifted from job to job, searching for the same thrill he felt as a member of Star Fox. But his existance was mostly an empty one...something that annoyed him more than he would admit. The technical brains behind the team, and Fox's closest friend, was the good- natured Slippy Toad. Slippy met and fell in love with a girl named Amanda, and decided to leave the world of flying and start a new life with his beloved fiancee. Star Wolf, the true rivals of Star Fox, continued to be involved in dirty dealings. Their work soon caught the attention of the Cornerian military, who put a massive bounty on their heads. And finally, Krystal. The lone female of the group, she had fought beside Fox and fell in love with him -- much against her better judgment and professional concern. Her love was returned, however, and the two promised to remain together always. But Fox was quite wary of the danger that haunted pilots in the elite Star Fox squadron, and he eventually forced Krystal to leave the team. Heartbroken and ashamed, she fled from Fox and vanished soon after. No one knows what became of her... Now, the past has come to haunt them all. Unwilling or unable to face his former team, Fox has chosen to take on the entire Anglar armada by himself. Can he do it? Will the team put aside their differences and reunite? All Lylat waits for the answers... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =========== b.

Basic Strategy and Tips ========================== --------- MAP MODE: --------- The main point of the single-player campaign is to collect all of the enemy cores in a stage. You must clear enemy groups or shoot them down with missles from the Great Fox and destroy all of the enemy motherships on the Map Screen. The Map Screen will also show bonus items up for grabs, and they are usually time capsules or missles, making the stage a bit easier. One quick way of clearing stages is to locate the largest squadron of enemies, usually 4 or 5 dots, and take them down with a missile. It saves time, health, and more importantly, you will often grab a ton of cores from them. Clear as much fog as you can on fog-of-war missions, and try suspicious areas to uncover bases, enemies, or bonus items. Your own squadron can be directed to their destination by tapping them and drawing paths for them. If an enemy crosses your path, you'll have to engage that enemy squadron. Missiles from enemy bases will occasionally be launched, and you MUST intercept them and destroy them before they hit the Great Fox. If you fail to destroy a missile or an enemy squadron, they will move an additional distance closer to the Great Fox, so repeated failures are not an option. Your ships can move a certain distance depending on its fuel meter when you draw their paths. Friendly bases, which are white marks on the map, can boost a ship's fuel meter considerably, allowing it to cover greater distances. Use this well to grab any power-ups or to quickly intercept enemy bases or squadrons. Power-ups are scattered everywhere, and some, like the Supply Rings, may not be too terribly important, but it's a good idea to pick these up, especially the fuel cells and missiles. Enemies are red dots on the map, and can be made up of many different enemy types, depending on the level. They will always target the Great Fox, so they must be destroyed before they can get to the Great Fox. There are little >> marks to represent how fast they can move, > being the slowest, >> being a little faster, and >>> being very fast and difficult to watch out for. Red striped areas on the map indicate no-fly zones, so you can't fly over them. However, enemy missiles CAN pass over these zones, so be prepared to encounter missiles as they go over these zones. Missiles can't be shot down by the Great Fox's missiles, you have to take them out manually. When you encounter enemies, select their panels and get ready to destroy them. Usually the main type of enemy you see when you encounter a squadron is the type that contains cores, and by collecting all of the cores from them, the squadron is defeated and you earn extra time from the amount of enemies shot down. If EVERY single enemy is shot down, you will earn a PERFECT and earn an extra missile for the Great Fox. Keep in mind, that when you shoot down enemies with the Great Fox, you DON'T gain any time or items, so use those missiles wisely. ------------------------- Motherships/Missile Bases ------------------------- These are the red colored bases on the map. If a ship hits the mothership base, it will stop its path and engage it. Mothership encounters are a little different than normal encounters. The stage does not end when you collect the cores from the main enemies. Instead, after clearing out the enemies and taking the cores, you will have to go through a series of beacons which look like this: _______________________ | | | | | | | | | + | | | | | | | |_______________________| (excuse the poor ASCII) ...And then do a rolling attack into the mothership to destroy it. If you miss a beacon, or don't roll into the mothership, you will automatically die, so don't mess up! As an added bonus, if you fly directly through the + in a beacon, you will earn an extra second for the time limit. Bases with missile icons next to them, signal that they are going to launch a missile in the next turn if not taken care of. You can also tap the base on the map to check how many cores they have, and how many turns they have before they launch another missile. -------- Missiles -------- To destroy missiles, you have to go through the beacons, similar to the mothership levels, and shoot it down with your lasers. Do it quick, because the more beacons you go through, the faster you go, and the harder it is to go through the beacons. Characters with lock-on can destroy the missile with a full lock-on. If you fail to destroy the missile, it will move closer to the Great Fox and eventually destroy it, ending in a mission failure. These CANNOT be shot down by the Great Fox's missiles and can pass through no-fly zones. ------ Bosses ------ When certain stages are cleared, a boss will challenge you, signified by a warning. The boss must be defeated to clear the stage and you can use any available pilots to defeat it. R.O.B. will often point out its weak points during the battle, so be sure to exploit them in order to win. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ======================= e. Mission Walkthroughs ======================= e)i. Training - Controlling the Fighter Simply fly through the 25 rings placed in a curve pattern. You can use this to practice your flying, steering, speed boosts and brakes. R.O.B. will teach you the basics of flying throughout the course of this practice mission. e)ii. Training - Combat Techniques You have to destroy 30 Anglar ships and collect the cores they leave behind. They can be taken down with one shot, so use this mission as practice for lock-ons and dropping bombs strategically. In order to pick up the enemy cores easier, you can barrel roll and they will be guided toward your ship. e)iii. Training - Barrel Rolls You must destroy the 5 enemy towers and collect their cores. They will shoot at you, so rub the stylus back and forth on the touch screen to barrel roll. This will deflect enemy fire and give you a time bonus too. Use this mission to perfect barrel rolling, but it will consume the boost meter, so be careful. e)iv. Training - The Time System This introduces the time system of the game. Basically, you only have 30 seconds to destroy 15 enemies and collect their cores. If time runs out, you lose a life, simple as that. It also introduces the bar meter above the timer. For every 5 enemies you destroy, a bonus will appear, in most cases, a time capsule that adds 25 seconds to your current time. Flying through rings will also give you bonus items. Use this mission to prepare for the main game, which will have destroying tons of enemies with a constant timer. =================================== Mission Walkthroughs (Default Path) =================================== -------------------------------- THE ADVENTURE BEGINS! (Corneria) Cores to Collect: 10 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 150 seconds -------------------------------- Destroy all the enemy ships. Destroy the entire arsenal to complete the mission.

Slippy will appear on Turn 3 to help you out with the enemies. Let him encounter the rest of the enemies. His Plasma Shots will make quick work of them, but he has no lock-on and a weak boost meter. Finish off any remaining enemies and you're done! Mission Complete ----------------------- FOG OF WAR (Fichina) Cores to Collect: 13 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 150 seconds ----------------------- Fog hides enemies, items, and bases, More fog will roll in each turn. Slide the stylus over the fog to clear it away. You can only get rid of a limited amount of fog each turn.

Pick up the missile and the 2 fuel cells while making your descent toward the mothership base. Intercept any remaining enemy squadrons when necessary. Just a straightforward mission...or is it!? Boss: It's Star Wolf! Star Fox's longtime rivals! Thinking you want to collect their bounties, they challenge you to a match. To defeat them, you must destroy their crafts and avoid the bombs they drop on the field. Use U-turns and loops to turn the tables on them. Bombs can also help take a chunk out of their health. Beat the team and you can finish the stage! Enemies: a. Assault Laser x1 b. Bomber Bird x4 c. Shuriken x2 A. Shuriken x2 Mission Complete ----------------------- OIKONNY STRIKES BACK! (Fichina) Cores to Collect: 21 Turns: 3 Time Limit: 100 seconds ----------------------- Andrew Oikonny seems to have survived his encounter with the Aparoids back in Star Fox Assault, and now joined the Anglar forces in order to have his revenge on Team Star Fox.

Reach A2 with Lucy to earn a few turns, mop up the enemies, and grab any items if necessary. If you don't want to deal with the enemies, especially the Assault Laser, use the Great Fox's missiles. Group c moves the fastest, but it's also the farthest, while the other groups move at a snail's pace. Don't let any enemies hiding under the fog reach the Great Fox! When that's done, your battle with former Star wolf member, Andrew Oikonny, awaits.... Boss: For those of you who saw Sony's horrendous E3 2006 conference, this will give you a few laughs. Andrew decides to attack you with the "Death Crab", (jokingly referred to as a GIANT ENEMY CRAB), the "most feared weapon in the arsenal". Choose either Fox or Lucy, and shoot the pincers when they open to disable the Death Crab. Now the boss will fly around. Again, attack the pincers when they are exposed to destroy them. Once they're gone, shoot down every one of the Crab's six legs, rolling to deflect attacks from the antannae. Once all the legs are dealt with, unload on its weak point in the craft, and you'll finish off Oikonny by doing MASSIVE DAMAGE to his craft. (I couldn't resist. ^_^;) Mission Complete Enemies: a.

The Star Fox team investigates and finds out that Anglar forces have invaded the underwater cities! They set out to liberate Aquas and hopefully find Amanda somewhere... ________________________________________ |+<<<b+++++++++++++++++++++++++*******++| |++++++++++++++++A2+++++++++++++*****+++| |+++**+++++++++++++++++++++++++++***+A3+| |+++**++++++++++++++++++++FC+++++**+++++| |++++++++++++**********++++++++++**++++*| |++++++++++++************++++++++**+++**| |+++++++++++++++++++M++**+++++! +++***| |+++++++**+++++++++++++***++++ <<<a***| |++++++***+++++++++++++***++++ B +****+| |+++++***++++++++++++++**+++++ +****+| |++++++***+++++++***++++++++*****+++++++| |++++++**++++++++***++++++++*****+++++++| |++++++**+++++++***++++++++***+++S+++A1+| | ++**+++++++***+++++++***+++++++++++| |Fox ++++++**++++++++********++++++| | Falco ++++**++++++++********++++++| | +++++++++++++++++++| |GF Slippy +++++++++++Amanda+| |_______________________________________| Strategy: There's a lot of no-fly zones, so you have to maneuver through them carefully. This will also be a first-time encounter of enemy missiles, you must intercept them before they hit the Great Fox, and they can pass through no-fly zones, making them extremely dangerous. Some bases, like A2, will also launch missiles periodically, so watch yourself. Amanda will appear on Turn 2 to lend a helping hand, but her ship isn't exactly made for combat, so be gentle with her. Clear off any enemies groups, use the friendly base to boost your paths, and save the bases to clear the mission! With 4 ships, this stage shouldn't take very long. For help on missile encounters, see the Basic Strategies & Hints section. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Jellyfish x12 b. Giant Spindly Fish x2 ! - Missile x1 A1. Needle Fish x3 A2. Atomic Ray x1 A3. Death Plankton x1 ----------------------- WE MEET AGAIN (Sector Z) Cores to Collect: 44 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 100 seconds ----------------------- Fox manages to convince Krystal to help him fight off the Anglar forces here. Krystal is piloting the Cornerian Fighter, so she is fragile and lacks lock-on. Be careful, as the asteroid belt will also scramble your flight paths. ________________________________________ | FC| | A1 | | a>>> | | | | M **** | | ****** | | ***** | | Slippy ***** | | **** | | Krystal GF Fox | | ** <<<b | | *** Falco | | **** S | | <<<c*** | | **** | | **** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | A2 <<<d~~~~~~~~~FC~~~~!~~A3| |_______________________________________| Strategy: This is pretty straightforward, you have to annihilate the bases and enemies with the now reunited Star Fox team. A2 and A1 will send out missiles, so take either the missiles or the bases out quickly. Take care of any reinforcements with the Great Fox's missiles. The asteroid belt will scramble flight paths, so watch where you're drawing and plan ahead. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Ammonite I x4 b. Angel Fish x9 c. Bozoid x1 d. Spin Devil x1 A1.

Destroy the mothership bases to earn more turns, wipe out the enemies and the missile, and collect any and all power-ups on the map. Use the stylus to uncover the enemies and the hidden base, and do your thing by shooting them down. Then, finally, when all is well and done... Boss: This is it! The final battle against Anglar himself! He pilots a monstrous version of the Devil Worm and each of his sections can attack you. The best way to confront him is with a pilot with 2 or 3 bombs, like Fox or Slippy, and then bombing him when all of his parts are in the blast zone. Sections that are detached can still inflict damage on you. When all the sections are destroyed, Anglar will form a defense barrier, with the head in the middle. Continue to shoot at the head while avoiding the sections coming at you and you will finally destroy Anglar once and for all! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Spin Devil x1 b. Devil Worm x1 c. Angel Fish x12 A1. Ammonite II x3 A2. Laser Fighter x4 A3. Pylon x2 ! - Missile x1 Now you've earned the first ending, (which kinda stinks), and also the Key of Destiny!

(Corneria) Cores to Collect: 21 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 100 seconds -------------------------------- What's this? The first stage became much harder now! Now the amount of cores has doubled, along with 50 seconds less time. Yep, the game gets harder as you strive for all 9 endings. I will list strategies for the new stages only, you can find which paths to take at the Ending section. ________________________________________ | A1 FC A2| | *** | | ***** <<a| | **** | | **** S | | *** | | *** | | *** | | *** | | *** | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |GF Fox | |_______________________________________| Strategy: Attack A1 first and its reinforcements, if you got a Perfect on it, use the missile to take down the enemy squadron. Then destroy the mothership at A2 to finish the stage, picking up the Fuel Cell as you go. The no-fly zone is a hassle, but hey, the game's in Hard Mode now. Mission Complete Enemies: a.

Use the 2 friendly bases to increase your flight path and mop up the enemies. Dash Bowman will appear on Turn 2 to lend a hand, so use his ship to intercept any stragglers. The enemy base will launch missiles, so be on the lookout, and pick up the missiles along the way, you might need them later on. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Elite Fighter x2 b. Starfish x2 c.

Elite Fighter x2 ---------------------------------- THE METEORITE TRAP (Asteroid Belt) Cores to Collect: 24 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 100 seconds ---------------------------------- Meeting up with Falco didn't go as planned...now you're stuck in the asteroid field with Anglar forces hiding. Will you make it out alive, or will you fail? That's for you to find out. ________________________________________ | | | Falco | | ~~~~~~ | | GF ~~~~~~ A2 | | Fox ~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~ | | A1 ~~~~~~~ | | FC ~~<<<b~ | | ~~~~~~~ | | M | | !| | | | ~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~<<<a| |_______________________________________| Strategy: Take out A1 first to start things off, and intercept groups that come from A2. A2 launches a couple of reinforcements, but it's nothing you can't handle. Falco appears on Turn 3, late as usual, so you can use him to handle A2 or its reinforcements. Keep an eye on the enemy missile, and try to avoid going into the asteroid paths, as they will scramble your flight paths, wasting fuel. Having a missile or two for the Great Fox wouldn't hurt either. Boss: Surprise boss attack! You must deal with the Biobrain, before you finish the stage. Choose either pilot and attack the 4 triangles that surround it. Bombs are especially helpful here. Once the triangles are gone, shoot the center of the Biobrain constantly to weaken it. It will continually divide and try to attack you with the spare parts. Continue with the pattern, and you're done with the stage! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Invader II x6 b. Devil Worm x1 A1.

And Nintendo doesn't seem to care about that. You have to help Slippy and Amanda by clearing out the Anglar forces here. ________________________________________ | ++ + | | g>+ e> + M | | ! ++ ! | | + + | | f>++ + ++++++++++| | ++ M FC+ c>>> + | |Amanda + + | | ++ + M ++ | | + ++ b> ++ | | ++ ****+ + | | ++ ****+ ++ | | ++ S + FC +*** | |++ d> ++ +***** M | |++ ++ ++*** | | ++ M ++ | | ++ ++ M Fox| | !

The missile stages are getting harder, so make sure to lock on to the missile to destroy them. Otherwise, the enemies aren't too tough to handle. Amanda will join the fray on Turn 2, so use her wisely. Don't let the low amount of fog fool you, the enemies can still hide under it as well as necessary power-ups. Boss: Octoman will attack you from different angles with his Octopod, but what's this? Slippy's been brainwashed! Avoid Slippy's attacks, and try to locate the correct jar, that Octoman hid into. Guess right, and you can attack him when his shields go down. Guess wrong, and you'll have a laser shooting right at you. Keep repeating this pattern until Octoman is defeated, you can defeat Slippy to keep him out of commission as well. Mission Complete. Enemies: a. Giant Spindly Fish x1 b. Aquas Squid x2 c.

This won't be an easy task, considering recent events between them.... Now it seems Krystal has joined Star Wolf! This could be a problem.... ________________________________________ |++++++++++++ !

A2 will continue to spew missiles at you until you destroy the mothership. Leon and Panther join you, (for now), so send them to destroy the missiles and bases. Krystal is in the Cornerian Fighter, so use her to the best of her abilities. Don't forget the useful missiles from the Great Fox! Only 1 missile to pick up here too. Note on Leon and Panther: Their lasers are very different, Panther shoots at 1/2 pace, while Leon MUST lock-on to fire a normal shot. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Saucerer x3 b. Todora x1 c.

(Venom) Cores to Collect: 41 Turns: 4 Time Limit: 100 seconds -------------------------- Krystal leaves Fox forever and is now an official Star Wolf member! With that done, we venture into Venom for a final showdown with the Anglar Emperor! (Again.) ________________________________________ |a>>+++++++c>>++++++++++++++++++S++++A3+| |++++++++++++++++++++FC++++++++***++++++| |++**++++++++++++++++***++++++++***+++++| |++**+++++++++++++++++***+++<d+++***++++| |++++++++++++++++++++++****+++++++++++++| |++++++++**++++++++++++****+++++++++++++| |++++++++**+++++++++++++***++++A4+++++++| |+++++++***+++++++++A2++***+++++++++++++| |++++++***++++M++++********++++++++*****| |++++***+++++++++++*******+++++*********| |++++**+++++++++++***+++**+++++*********| |++++**+++++++++++***+++**+++++++++++A1+| |++++**++++++++++***++M+**+<e+++FC++++++| | **+++++++++****++++**++++++++++++++| | *****++++*********+++++++| |Wolf ****+++++++*******+<<<b++| | Panther +++++***++++***++++++** | |GF Leon Krystal ***+++++++++++++** | |_______________________________________| Strategy: Enemies and fog everywhere. Not a good combo. Combine that with over 4 enemy bases and we got a serious problem. The attack swarms are brutal and move fast, so be sure you stacked up enough missiles for the Great Fox. Missiles will come from the bases frequently, but DON'T USE LEON for them. His laser is far too weak to take them down fast enough. I would recommend using Panther for the missiles, Wolf for the base skirmishes, and Leon/Krystal for the enemy squads, as they are too weak to handle the base attacks. Conserve bombs and missiles, you'll need them if you want to survive this final trial for Ending 4. Zazan and Octoman are incredibly tough to defeat, I would also recommend Panther for their encounters. Uncovering the power-ups is also key to your victory here on Venom. And now finally.... Boss: Anglar will attack you with another version of the Arrow Head. He will come out of certain holes in the environment, so watch where he's going and attack him. Use bombs when necessary and go for the rings if you're low on health. He'll then attack by throwing sections at you again, once that's finally done, it seems Anglar's running away! You'll follow him into a deep hole in Venom's bowels. Now the anglerfish will have 3 maces surrounding him, shoot them down while avoiding his ray attacks until they turn red. They will now concentrate energy for another attack. Roll to deflect it back at Anglar, but be warned, he can deflect it back! If it connects with him, his shields will drop, exposing his fragile appendage on his head. Attack it until his shields come back. The maces will now emit green lights, avoid them and continue shooting the maces until they turn red again. Once again, deflect his attack back at him again to drop his shields, and continue attacking his appendage. Now he will send a ton of metal girders to block your path. Try to manuever through them and continue your barrage on the maces until they are destroyed. Anglar will finally come out and try to inhale you into his mouth, resist with the brakes quickly. Now avoid his tile barrage and fire at his appendage once more until he is finally destroyed once and for all! Congratulations! You've earned Ending 4!

No-Fly zones are everywhere, and the fog does little to help.

A2 will launch a missile, so stay alert. A reinforcement will pop out of A1 as well. The no-fly zones make this place a pain to navigate though. Boss: Star Wolf will still bother you as always.

You have to meet up with Slippy's dad, Beltino Toad in order to help defeat the Anglars. As the title says, this place has quite a few missiles in place to destroy the Great Fox. ________________________________________ | Falco | | A | | ! ! | | | | | | ~~~******** | | ~~~********* | | ~~~~*********** | | ~~~~~~~~~~****** | | ~~~~~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~~~~ | | *** | | *** | | *** | | ~~~~~~ | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | ~~Fox GF Slippy~~ | | | |_______________________________________| Strategy: Quite a simple map, really. Deal with the 2 missiles and any additional ones from the base. The belt will screw with your paths, but you should be fine. Attack the base to keep it from shooting missiles, and you're pretty much done with this stage. Falco will once again appear on Turn 3 to help you out. Boss: Biobrain's back to annoy you. Refer to the last Asteroid mission for the strategy to beat Biobrain again. Mission Complete Enemies: ! - Missiles x2 A. Invader IV x2-6 ----------------------- THE WORM (Titania) Cores to Collect: 36 Turns: 3 Time Limit: 100 seconds ----------------------- According to Krystal, Andross was working on a new machine on Titania. It would've made Venom a prosperous place. But, he was deemed mad and sent off to Venom, isolated. Now that device is somewhere on Titania. Team Star Fox has to recover the device from one of Andross's bioweapons. ________________________________________ |+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++| |++++++++++++++++++++<<<b+A4++++++++S+++| |+A3+FC+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++| |++++++++++++++++++***++++++++++++++++++| |++++++++++++++++++*****+++++FC++++M++++| |+++++++++++++++++++****++++++++++++++++| |*++++++++++++++++++++***+++++++++++++++| |**++++++++a>>>++++++++****+++++++++++++| |***+++++++++++++++++++++***++++++++++++| |*****++++++++A2++++++++++****++++++++++| |******+++++++++++++++++++++***+++++++++| | *****++++++++++FC++++++++***++<<<c+++| | *******++++++++++++++++++++++++++++| |M *****++++++++++++++++++++FC++| | *************+++++++ | |Krystal Slippy ************+++ A1 | | Falco ***** | | GF Fox | |_______________________________________| Strategy: Use the map to clear off the fog from the most important things, and shoot down any enemy squads with missiles. Look out for any missiles launched from the bases and pick up the extra missiles and fuel cells. There are 4 bases, 2 of which launch missiles, so watch yourself. The enemies are getting really tough, so if you must conserve time, use the missiles. You only have 3 turns, so get to the bases as soon as possible. I would also recommend not using Slippy for the missile stages, as the missiles have more stamina and become harder to hit without lock-on. Boss: What's this? It's the Ghost of Andross! He's protecting Titania with his bioweapon! It's the Dune Worm! Oh no! Sarcasm aside, I would recommend Slippy for this particular battle because of his Plasma Shots and high defense. The Dune Worm will pop out of the ground and hurl rocks at you. You must strike either its head or its other end to damage it. The weak points are very small, so it could take a while. Remember to roll to deflect the rocks and lock-on to the weak spots. After some time, you should be able to finish this beast. It's a difficult boss, but you can do it! Mission Complete. Enemies: a.

There's a ton of power-ups to collect here, get as many as you can before the base battles. A3 will launch a missile on Turn 3, and A1 will release reinforcements on Turn 3 as well, stay alert. There's also a missile on the map, destroy it before it reaches the Great Fox. The enemies are extremely tough, so think before you go into battle or decide to use a missile. Zazan and Octoman will appear on 2 of the bases, they take a long time to destroy, so make sure you have enough time for each battle. The no-fly zones make it difficult to navigate, and the fog doesn't help either. Boss: Anglar will attack you with another version of the Arrow Head. He will come out of certain holes in the environment, so watch where he's going and attack him. Use bombs when necessary and go for the rings if you're low on health. He'll then attack by throwing sections at you again, once that's finally done, it seems Anglar's running away! You'll follow him into a deep hole in Venom's bowels.

Use the base to cover a large distance and collect the missiles and intercept Squad a. If you're lazy, like me, you can shoot down most of the squads with the Great Fox's missiles, seeing as there's 2 missiles near the base from the start. Make your way over the no-fly zone and destroy the 2 enemy bases. A2 will launch a missile on Turn 2, so watch out for that. A pretty easy stage for Katina. Bill Grey appears on Turn 3 to lend a hand, his stats are exactly the same as Krystal's stats in her Cornerian Fighter. Have fun with this stage. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Flip Bots x2 b.

Attack any squads with your missiles, and attack A1 first to earn up to 16 cores from it. Collect the missiles, and be prepared for a missile launch from A2 on Turn 2. A3 will launch a missile on Turn 3, so don't let your guard down. The enemies here are weak, so go crazy on them. Once again, the asteroid belt will scramble your paths, so watch yourself if you must go there. Katt Monroe, Falco's colleague, will also appear on Turn 3. With her Curve laser, she can help rout out any stragglers on this stage. Clean up the bases, and you should be fine. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Pylon x2 b. Angel Fish x9 c. Spin Devil x1 A1.

What the--? I thought he died in Star Fox Assault! o_O Well, anyways, he's our new threat here in Sector X, so we must deal with this abomination of a pig.

The missiles are the only true main concern of this battle, the asteroid belts serve mainly as annoyances. Otherwise, this isn't too hard, so you'll be fine. Katt pops up on Turn 3, but by then, you'll probably have most of the enemies wiped out. Still, it does mean an extra ship to keep things in order. Enjoy! Boss: Pigma looks ugly now. Regardless, to defeat this little piggy, you have to align his face correctly by shooting the blocks. Once you do, he will launch a laser in the shape of his "lovely face", and reveal his inner essence, your target. Attack the essence like mad to weaken Pigma. He'll then close up and launch several missiles at you. Destroy them and continue the pattern of aligning his face to expose his weak spot and shooting at it. He'll then launch lasers similar to that of the Bozoids, squeeze through and continue shooting. Finally, he'll unload fireballs like mad, you must hurry and align his face again, continue shooting, and finally defeat Pigma! Congratulations, you've earned Ending 8! Joy!

Pick up the missile power-ups and the Fuel Cell and attack any enemy squads close to the Great Fox. Use the bases to extend your path and easily attack the bases. Clean up the fog with the screen to see better and be careful of the no-fly zones. Be watchful of the enemy squads as they'll come in much larger numbers than before. A1 will launch reinforcements on Turn 2. A2 will try to launch a missile on Turn 4 as well. By now, you should be able to take this kind of challenge. Mission Complete Enemies: a.

I would recommend picking up the missiles on the path to get rid of the minor enemies. Head straight for the enemy base to save time and turns. The no-fly zone is not much of a hassle, since you can fly right under it. The base will send out a Bomber Bird squad on Turn 2, but it's not a big deal. Boss: So, things didn't go as planned. To defeat Star Wolf, you must destroy their crafts and avoid the bombs they drop on the field. Use U-turns and loops to turn the tables on them. Bombs can also help take a chunk out of their health. Beat the team and you can finish the stage! ...Again. >_> Mission Complete Enemies: a. Assault Laser x1 b. Fire Wheel x1 c. Shuriken x2 A.

A2 sends reinforcements on Turn 3, A3 launches a missile on Turn 2. A1 is basically defenseless, so get it out of the way to earn 2 turns. On Turn 2, you should have both squads gone and a missile heading in your way. Send whoever's closer to A1 to it and send the other for the missile. Then attack the 2 bases and collect the power-ups if you want. One more thing, beware of falling magma rocks and the beacons for the mothership/missile levels turned green for this stage.

Use the 2 bases to your advantage and try to intercept the 2 enemy missiles and destroy the mothership base. On the normal encounters, beware of magma flares and enemies that hide underneath the magma. This place is very dangerous and the magma can cause a lot of damage to your ships. Stock up on the Fuel Cells and prepare for a major boss battle! Boss: Zoldge is the pilot of the massive Solar Satellite. Destroy the 2 circle-sized facilities on the satellite when they open up. Beware of the Solar Fighters in this area, as they will try to snipe you as you damage the satellite. Also, since the fight takes place on the Solar Magma, watch out for falling rocks. Avoid the 2 pink lasers that the satellite shoots and eventually, the 2 weak spots will be gone. From this point on, you have to attack the top part of the satellite and make it tip into the lava, damaging it. Keep on doing this, while avoiding the lasers and rocks, and you finally destroy the satellite! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Fire Fish x2 b. Flip Bots x4 c. Moras x2 d. Moras x2 e. Bee Fighter x1 f.

Continue to damage it until the Dodra is defeated. The fireballs hurt a lot, so be very careful when attacking. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Bomber Bird x3 A1. Atomic Ray x2 A2.

Clear it away to reveal the enemies and bases, as well as the power-ups and get ready to take down the squads. If you're being overrun by reinforcements from the bases, utilize your missiles. In fact, there are 3 missiles right in front of you as you start. All 3 bases are capable of launching enemies and missiles, so be on your guard and use all 3 crafts. Otherwise, you'll do fine here and get ready for the big battle with the Anglar Emperor. (Again!) A special note on this stage: James McCloud makes a surprise appearance on Turn 5. He has an excellent ship, excelling in all stats plus a 3-second time bonus. However, if you face the Anglar Emperor as him, you have to fight the hardest version of him. Use him wisely. Boss: Anglar will attack you with another version of the Arrow Head. He will come out of certain holes in the environment, so watch where he's going and attack him. Use bombs when necessary and go for the rings if you're low on health. He'll then attack by throwing sections at you again, once that's finally done, it seems Anglar's running away! You'll follow him into a deep hole in Venom's bowels. Now the anglerfish will have 3 maces surrounding him, shoot them down while avoiding his ray attacks until they turn red. They will now concentrate energy for another attack. Roll to deflect it back at Anglar, but be warned, he can deflect it back! If it connects with him, his shields will drop, exposing his fragile appendage on his head. Attack it until his shields come back. Now he will send a ton of metal girders to block your path. Try to manuever through them and continue your barrage on the maces until they are destroyed. Anglar will finally come out and try to inhale you into his mouth, resist with the brakes quickly. Now avoid his tile barrage and fire at his appendage once more until he is finally destroyed once and for all! Congratulations! You've earned Ending 6! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Web Ship II x2 b.

A2 - A4 can release reinforcements and missiles at any time, so attack them quickly. The fog serves as an annoyance, and the enemies are weak, so you can kill them quickly. There's a couple of Fuel Cells around here, so picking them up for bonus time isn't a bad idea. Boss: Another surprise boss battle! Time to face Zazan in his ZaZanga 9 ship. I would take Slippy for the ride. Zazan will drop bombs everywhere, and you have to shoot him down to finish the stage. Use U-turns and loops to catch him off-guard, and strike when you get the chance. He has a sturdy ship, so make sure you have a lot of time on your hands to defeat him. After some time, you will finally take him down and finish the stage! Yippee! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Commander x7 b. Swarm Fighter x9 c. Flash Bomber x2 A1. Swarm Fighter x9 A2.

Defeat the small enemy groups and take over the 2 bases. A1 may launch missiles, and make use of the friendly base while you can. The no-fly zone is a pain to deal with, but you're going to have to get through it in order to clean up the enemies. Amanda appears on Turn 4 to help out, but you might be finished by the time she appears. Pick up the missiles to save them for the next stage. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Devil Shark II x1 b.

Use Amanda to pass through the friendly base and cover the opposite side. Destroy any enemies you come across with a missile or Slippy and Amanda. If you have enough missiles, you can basically blast every enemy on the map. Be sure to take the Fuel Cell for extra time and keep a lookout for any missiles coming out of the enemy bases. This shouldn't take too long to finish at all. There will occasionally be some reinforcements, but they're weak and easy to take down with Slippy or a missile. Ready for the last battle? Boss: Zako pilots the Devil Shark, a slightly different version of the normal Devil Sharks you've seen before. Only this time, it's sectioned, and can only be damaged by revealing its weak point after shooting its different parts. There are also 2 enemies stuck under him, which can attack you when needed. It will try to ram you to destroy you, so get out of its way. Keep on shooting his head and weak point to eventually destroy him. Amanda is a good choice for the battle due to her Multi-Lock. Once he's destroyed, congratulations! You've earned Ending 7! Enjoy those annoying credits. >_> Mission Complete Enemies: a. Giant Spindly Fish x1 b. Jellyfish x12 c. Death Plankton x1 A1.

With 3 ships, this mission shouldn't be much of a problem. The main problem is the no-fly zones everywhere and the fact that both enemy bases can launch missiles. Keep your eye on the missiles as they come, and destroy them quickly. Don't waste turns going nowhere and only pick up the power-ups if they are truly worth the time. Clean up any remaining enemies/missiles, and this stage should be a piece of cake. Mission Complete Enemies: a. Todora x2 b. Saucerer x3 c. Flip Bots x3 A1. Web Ship x2 A2.

Be careful of the missile on the bottom-left corner, remember, they can't be shot down by the Great Fox's missiles. Not much else except blowing up the enemies with the Great Fox's missiles!

Look out for the 2 missiles on the map, and beware of the no-fly zones. There are 4 enemy bases, and at least one of them is capable of launching a missile on Turn 3. Use missiles if you want to save time, but try to earn some missiles for the next level, as it will lead to Ending 2. Once all this is done, get ready for a boss battle. Boss: The Grunner is your opponent in this stage. I would choose Slippy for this stage. It will run around the place like a maniac, and cause electric walls to come up from the ground. Avoid them and shoot the Grunner to damage him. He may also throw a volley of rocks at you. Avoid or destroy the rocks and continue to damage the Grunner.

Split up the team and intercept the missile and any enemy squads heading your way. Take over A2 as soon as possible and use the missiles to shoot down enemies to save time. The bases can launch missiles and reinforcements, so be on the lookout for enemies hiding in the fog. This is pretty easy, as the enemies are famaliar, and you have 4 ships to help conquer Venom! Get ready to fight the Anglar Emperor once again! For the last time, hopefully. Boss: Anglar will attack you with another version of the Arrow Head. He will come out of certain holes in the environment, so watch where he's going and attack him. Use bombs when necessary and go for the rings if you're low on health. He'll then attack by throwing sections at you again, once that's finally done, it seems Anglar's running away! You'll follow him into a deep hole in Venom's bowels.

Beware of the missile above though, don't let it hit the Great Fox! There are several power-ups to pick-up too, so be sure to pick them up. Piece of cake, especially with 4 ships. But, get ready for the final boss battle of this path. Boss: The Splitter is the boss of this stage. Looks like a giant sectioned missile. The Splitter attacks with lasers coming out of its front end, move over to the back end and shoot that end to damage the ship. Continue to shoot the backside of the enemy as the pieces of the craft fall to the ground. The last piece will send a flurry of lasers to shoot you down, barrel roll to deflect them and keep shooting its weak spot. Eventually, it will be destroyed and Corneria is saved once again!

Use all 3 ships to your advantage and make good use of the power-ups and missiles. After you collect the cores, Andross's bioweapon will appear for yet another boss battle. Boss: The Killer Bee is Andross's bioweapon here. It's basically a super-sized version of the Bee Fighter II. Choose either Fox or Wolf and target the Killer Bee's belly to damage it. Avoid its attacks and continue to damage him. It may occasionally teleport to confuse you. Once it's taken enough damage, the Killer Bee will be destroyed, and you finally clear this stage! Its attacks include sending a bee swarm at you and shooting a steady stream of lasers. Good luck! Mission Complete Enemies: a. Battle Butterfly x6 b. Bomber Bird x3 c. King Dodora x1 d.

He'll then close up and launch several missiles at you. Destroy them and continue the pattern of aligning his face to expose his weak spot and shooting at it. He'll then launch lasers similar to that of the Bozoids, squeeze through and continue shooting.

Approach with caution, and again, take out the fins and then the main body. Metal Devil Shark Shield: N/A Weapon: N/A Ouch, this thing's tough. Bombs don't hurt it at all, and you must shoot the head to expose the weak spot. This may take several tries because of its strong defenses. Very dangerous. Octoman Shield: N/A Weapon: N/A The definition of annoying. He pilots like an experience Arwing pilot, therefore hard to hit. In addition, the bombs he drops hurts a lot! Use lock-on whenever possible and try to use loops and U-turns to fool him. An extremely tough opponent. Zazan Shield: N/A Weapon: N/A Basically the same as Octoman. Very annoying. Bee Fighter Shield: ******** Weapon: **** These things will phase in and out of the stage to attack. Take it down quickly before its pulsating rings hurt you. Bee Fighter II Shield: ******** Weapon: *** The second version of the Bee Fighter. Slightly weaker than the first, however. Similar to the Butterfly Fighters from Star Fox 64. Bioweapon Statues Shield: N/A Weapon: N/A These things run around like maniacs on the floor. They're annoying, but can be destroyed by lasers and bombs. Don't get too close to the floor to defeat them! Andreaver Shield: ***** Weapon: **** A large robot that looks like Andross. These things shoot a flurry of fireballs at you, but have weak shields. If you are a good roller, these shouldn't be much of a problem. Balloonist Shield: ******** Weapon: **** A ship held by several large blue balloons. Shoot the balloons or the ship to destroy it. Once all the balloons are gone, the ship is pretty much done for. Battle Butterfly Shield: *** Weapon: **** A swarm of butterfly fighters that resides in the desert. They can avoid bombs and often come in swarms of 6 a group. Durable and tough to challenge. Embryon Shield: **** Weapon: **** Embryo-like ships that bunch together as a swarm. Relatively weak and moves very slowly. 2 well-placed bombs will take care of these weird-looking ships. Attacks with lasers when bunched up into a large group. Venom I Shield: ******** Weapon: **** A fighter with some tough shields. Stands in place a lot and can quickly move to another place. Lock-on to this ship for maximum damage against it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============== h.

Fox has finally realized the true value of friendship...and love. Fox and his friends head for Aquas in order to meet Amanda, Slippy's fiancee. Amanda has come to a life-changing decision. She is going to join team Star Fox and fly alongside her love... With the support of her new colleagues, she will soar across the galaxy and get into all manner of adventures along the way!

Good-Bye Fox- The Star Fox members vote to disband the squadron, and Fox promises to spend his remaining days living a quiet life with Krystal. But if a new threat threatens the peace, will Fox keep his promise? To never fight again is a hard thing to ask of a warrior... Their son, Marcus, grows into a fine young pup, and the Fox family enjoys a happy life together. Marcus enters the Cornerian Academy and follows his father's path. The apple does not fall far from the tree, as Marcus is gifted with unbelievable flying skill. Marcus soon forms an elite squadron to defend peace whenever it is threatened.

One dark day, Krystal makes a startling confession: "I'm sorry, Fox! I can't do this anymore. I'm going back to be with Panther and the rest of Star Wolf." Fox was overcome with grief and begged Krystal to stay... but her mind was set. Once again, Fox McCloud was forced to wander the world alone...and unloved. But Krystal has no such regrets.

But she ignores the talk and proceeds with her new life as a member of Star Wolf. Eventually, the slings and arrows of the populace are too much to bear. They begin to hiss as she walks by, and name her traitor to her face. She is alone...and hated. She pulls away from Star Wolf and tries to find meaning in this new, cruel world. Haunted by her past, Krystal abandons her life and flees to a distant galaxy. Changing her name to Kursed, she survives by collecting bounties on the worst scum in the galaxy.

Bringing up memories both joyful and bittersweet, father and daughter sit and talk until the morning light.

Venom flourishes under Dash's leadership, and soon equals Corneria in terms of both its enviroment and its scientific expertise. The planet is at the heart of an empire ruled by Dash, who then makes an epic and inflammatory speech; "Corneria is no longer the center of Lylat power! Venom's time has come!" His citizens are enraptured by Dash's oratory skills and his furious message. Weeks later, a small conflict leads to war, and Venom once again threatens the galaxy... How to obtain: Stage 1: Attack advance guard. Stage 2: Go to Fichina instead. Stage 3: No choice Stage 4: No choice Stage 5: Sorry, I'm outta here Stage 6: End of Story 7. Slippy's Resolve- The years passed. Slippy and Amanda had a veritable army of children, and Slippy thought he could never be any happier. His children grew tall and strong in the clean Aquas air, and loved to hear stories of how Dad flew with the legendary Star Fox team. Slippy decided to leave Star Fox behind and make a new life on the beautiful planet of Aquas...with Amanda by his side. There was no indecision or regret on his part. He would live for his family now... Several decades pass. Slippy is now an old man who loves to recount tales of the good old days for visiting children. When he finishes a yarn, he often thinks on his friends. Do they still cross the galaxy righting wrongs? He can only watch the sky and wonder... How to obtain: Stage 1: Contact Slippy Stage 2: Locate Peppy first Stage 3: Join the hunt on Aquas Stage 4: End of Story 8. Pigma's Revenge- Falco is consumed with rage. If all had gone to plan, he, Fox, and all the rest would be heroes writ large upon a galactic stage, reveling in endless retellings of their victory. Instead, fate has seen fit to ostracize Falco from the Star Fox squadron. And then, just when things were bleakest, Falco got a message from Katt Monroe. "Forget those losers! Grab a couple of friends and form a new squad!" Falco was usually too stubborn to heed advice, but this message came at the right time. Falco took Katt up on her offer, and they went hunting for a third pilot, eventually finding their man -- an elite Cornerian pilot named Dash! Together the three of them formed Star Falco, a unit that rivaled even Star Fox! How to obtain: Stage 1: Where's Falco? Stage 2: No choice Stage 3: Search for Krystal Stage 4: End of Story 9. The Curse of Pigma- Fox was despondent. Star Wolf had taken from him everything that he loved. Falco's attempts to comfort his old friend were futile. Fox lived as one already dead, barely eating or sleeping. But then Falco had an idea that changed everything... Falco had a brainstorm; retire as pilots and engineer their Arwings into racing machines. They would enter the high-speed world of G-Zero Grand Prix racing! When Falco saw excitement return to his friend's face, relief coursed through him. Fox and Falco turned out to be a great G-Zero team. Winning race after race, they become household names across a countless number of planetary systems. Their days as part of Star Fox faded to a distant memory... How to obtain: Stage 1: Attack advance guard. Stage 2: Go to Fichina instead. Stage 3: No choice Stage 4: No choice Stage 5: Let's find that device Stage 6: Go after Wolf ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================= i. Frequently Asked Questions ============================= 1. Are there options for a D-Pad control scheme? No, the D-Pad is only used for shooting, not moving around. You can't change it in Options, so you're stuck with stylus controls. 2. Can you choose characters in multiplayer/Wi-Fi? No, the only ship you have is the Arwing II, the default ship for multiplayer battles. 3. Did the first stage suddenly get harder after I beat the game once? Yes, occasionally some levels will get tougher as you unlock more endings. 4. Any rail stages like Star Fox 64/Star Fox/Star Fox Assault? Not really. The only true rail stages are the missile stages, yet they usually last about 30 seconds and that's it. All other stages are in All-Range Mode. 5. I heard something about a strategy element, can you explain? Each stage starts off on a map and you can touch your crafts and draw paths for them. You encounter enemies on the map and engage in All-Range Mode battles. Some strategic elements include enemies trying to destroy the Great Fox, no-fly zones, which can't be crossed, and taking over bases. It's not difficult to learn, so don't let this intimidate you. 6. Is this game good? From my experience, I can say that this is the best Star Fox game I've played since Star Fox 64, my personal favorite. Some may like the game better, and some people hate the game, so play the game first to form your opinion of the game. :) 7. Can you lose ranks on Wi-Fi? As far as I know, no. Your rank can plummet into a negative percentage though. 8. What the--? How can that person grab the power-ups/stars even though he's so far away? It's called lag. No matter how good your connection is, you are bound to play someone with a bad connection. The DS has trouble placing your opponent, causing some strange things to happen. This is mistaken for cheating, but it's something you have to deal with. 9. Voice chat in this game? Well...not quite. You can't communicate online on this game with either text or voice. But, for single-player mode, you can record your voice and make the characters speak gibberish based on your own voice. You have to answer some simple questions for the voice recording, and then you can test out the new voices by tapping the character panels. Some questions include: What time do you go to bed? How many brothers and sisters do you have? What's your favorite food? There are many more questions, but they're all randomly generated. Don't worry, you can go back to normal voices by choosing Sound from the Options menu and selecting Normal for Voice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ======================================== j. Multiplayer/Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ======================================== Star Fox Command supports multiplayer for up to 6 people via Download Play and 4 people via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Download Play Instructions: The "host" must select Download Play from the Star Fox Command Main Menu and touch "Recruitment". Other players must use the Download Play option from the Nintendo DS Main Menu. When enough people join, the host can cut off recruitment and begin the dogfight! Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Instructions: You need either a wireless router or the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector to connect to a Windows XP-installed computer. Set your router or computer to allow the DS to connect online and choose "Wi-Fi Battle" from the Star Fox Command Main Menu. You can adjust settings with the DS and the computer. Once you connect to Wi-Fi, you will be given a Friend Code, which you can give to your friends or users on online boards in order to play with them online. Then simply select Battle Royale to play worldwide players or enjoy Free Battle with Friends and rivals. The main point of multiplayer is to grab as many stars as possible. Stars can be obtained by shooting down opponents. A star will be left in their place, but grab it fast, before it disappears or someone else gets it! Battles are played in these 5 stages: Corneria City Fichina Mountains Corneria Sea Sea Space There are also power-ups to collect: Twin Lasers Plasma Shot (Stronger Twin Lasers) Stealth Mode (Makes craft invisible to radar) Bomb (Takes 3 seconds to go off once dropped) Supply Ring (Fully restores health) Battle Royale is also ranked, you can gain ranks by playing these battles online. You are rated from Rank Z-A, with A being the highest and Z being the lowest. This will go up as you play in Battle Royale. Free Battle is all unranked. Wins and Total Games are counted as well as Disconnects, known as Dropouts. Also, the only playable craft in multiplayer is the Arwing II, nothing else. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============ k.
