Whew, that's a first. (for ares) i dled the Iron Fist. I have already run into trouble on Pegleg. Good job slug. It will be awesome when I beat it.

And so the problem remained; lots of people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches. Many were increasingly of the opinion that they had all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that the trees had been a bad move and that no one should ever have left the oceans.

Heheh. You better trash the copy you have because I just uploaded version 1.0.3:

•A new obish fighter graphic (provided generously by Pallas Athene)
•Heavier level scripting
•Smarter, more aggressive Gaitori
•Enemy pilots are expert
•New (very realistic) title screen

------------------
Oh, I'm not saying those Alduran ships are bad. In fact, they make excellent minesweepers. Once.

MORE aggressive gaitori? Enemy pilots are EXPERT? Damn! still can't pass it. Too bad I can't stop those first transports, then I could beat it. So does everybody find it hard, or am I just a wuss? Any hints? (hey, i got homework to do, i can't play it all the time.)
p.s. I am still on pegleg. Oh, how many levels are there?

Iron Fist was easy. There's only one level that was decently hard, and I don't remember the name of that one. I lost that one on the first try, but, due to the branching storyline, it let me go on anyways, and I beat it.

Was that on the new one?

Was what on the new one?

------------------
I have a plan so ingenius even an idiot could have devised it. On my command, we will line up our ships and fly straight into the enemy death-cannons clogging them with wreckage.

Stop Exploding you cowards!

Was what on the new one?

------------------

If you are so good at it, tell me how to beat it.

What? You mean 1.0.3, right? That is a lot harder. Trust me. Oh, and please try it before you rate it! You'll be pleasently surprised.

I think I only have 1.0.2. Now I am asking for help. How do I beat Pegleg? It is the seventh level. (3B?) Anyway, It is the one where you capture one planet immediately. You then go capture another planet on the opposite side of some very hostile territory. Capturing that planet results in 4 flak drones being destroyed. You are then free to take on the 4 Battlestations and ultimately, the planet in the middle of them. Help me out, I just get overwhelmed. I guess I do have one more idea of how to go about it, but I don't think it will work.

It's still too easy. It was the same level I lost on, and it immediately let me go on, anyway. I like the new title screen. I hate that music you put in the levels, though. It's okay when its just the epilogue to the entire set of missions, but for mission music?!?

Damnit! How do I beat Front Stab?! I always end up outmatched!

You DON'T beat front stab.

It let you go on? Huh, I wonder if I have never let me lose officially, always restarting the level. Ah well, I will try that.

Front Stab is nearly impossible to beat now. At the beginning, launch all your fighters then transfer control to an escort. Just hold your ground, and never go too far outside the jumpgate buoys or bad things will happen. :evil:
