General Gameplay Tips
1. Don't spend range to return to your Airbase if
you've only used a few missles. It sucks to have to beat the little
missions constantly.
2. Always use guns to shoot down
fighters, more money is good.
3. When engaging with guns, use the cockpit window
for the gun-sight.
4. When there's a missle coming, hit the afterburners
and dive, that should shake them.
5.Be careful in small spaces-the
manueverability is pathetic.
6. For those of you who have played AFD for DC,
be aware that this gameplay is more realistic.
The Final Assult
For those of you who have already
been blown up, sorry I didn't post this sooner.
Because i'm familar with the DC version, i had to set
up the controls differently, but that's me. I chose the
Warbler (F-25) because my BEE FATTY stalled in the mission and I
bought the farm. The Warbler has 88 msls, stealth
capabilities, and great manueverability/speed/defense/acceleration.
The Epic Battle
When you start out, two stealth
fighters streak by high ahead. Hit the afterburners and follow
the mission line to the first six targets. I'm warning you-these things are powerful. They
look like skyscrapers, but
they have three missle launchers on top. If you go straight on
with them,they will blow about 500-1000 HP off your plane. They are
arranged as follows:

This map isn't totally accurate, but
you have alot of targets here. To lose the least HP, start
low, climb the tower, fire, and pull left/right. The last
ground target is on top of the fortress. Don't stop jinxing
until you have a lock, or you're dead. Afterwards, mop up the
remaining fighters. An awesome VMU sequence will come up
(watch it- it's worth it) followed by another black out.
Inside the Giant
You end up in a
narrow passage leading into the main core. This map is upside
down, but this is the path leading up to the core.

The path is difficult, but not
very challenging, just watch your airspeed for stalls. There's
about twenty AA guns inside, but you have plenty (yeah right) of
room to manuever. Destroy the two targets on the core, then
head for the third in a little area down low. Come around, and
the core will have opened up. Lightning bolts piercing the air, the
last target is just inside. Get close enough to destroy it, and
watch the bolts. Afterwards, another VMU sequence shows you
trying to escape. (Oops, did I say that?) Watch it, and there
you have it- you've beaten AFD Storm.
Note:I've played and beaten it on
easy. My apologies to those aces who are trying to beat it on medium
or (GOOD HEAVENS) hard difficulty. Our luck and praise be with
you.
