1. Secrets
Level 1: Static
Secrets:
1. Fly south east direct below the trees at the start. You will find a
lot of ammo.
2. Destroy the first target and then fly north west along the rocks.
You will get to a kind of canyon. Enter it and you will find lots of
missiles.
3. Now fly to the landing place. From there fly south east. Behind a
group of palms you will find a bassin of the valley with a shield
restore.
Tip:
After you have destroyed the second target, fly to the west. Below
the trees you will find some hidden shield recharges.
Level 2: Hot Cargo
Secret:
After you have unloaded the containers three times, fly back to the
pipeline, beam back to the other sector and fly the way back to the
starting point. You will now find a new farcaster. Use it and pick up
all people in this secret area. One guy has to be bombed free in one
of the power towers. Beware of the glider.
Tip:
Shot the ventilator tower to get another three container places.
Level 3: New Order
Secret:
1. After you have completed the mission, say you have found the last
three crashed guys, fly to the final landing place and then fly south
and search the rocks for an entry to the secret place. You find a
double shield.
2. The second secret place is right north form the landing place. It
is just a steel plattform guarded by a naughty glider.
Tip:
One of the temple look-alikes near to the final tower stores a shield
restore.
Level 4: Frost Bite
Secrets:
1. After you have completed the mission, fly back to the second
sector, a new farcaster has been installed. It will beam you to a
secret place.
2. In the 2nc sector shoot the covey in the right upper corner.
Behind that you can collect a Chaos Works Power Up.
Level 5: Thin Air
Secrets:
1. Fly south along the rocks after you have destroyed the last target.
2. After you have destroyed the large ship fly west up till the end
of the corridor. First you will find a ring with goodies, behind that
there now is a secret niche.
Tip:
After you have picked up the first guy, fly to the rocks next to the
landing place. Some air mines will now crash into the rocks.
Activate the turbo before you let your passenger get out. Fly as fast
as you can to the upper right end of this sector.
Level 6: Insurrance
1. Clear the second sector then fly back to the first sector. You will
find a new farcaster that will send you to a secret place with lots
of swarmer ammo.
2. Destroy all buildings in the last sector, fly back one sector, and
now you will find one wall craked down between two towers. Besides
some air mines attacking you you will find missile ammo and a shield
restore.
3. After you have cleared both secret areas and have destroyed all
buildings in all sectors, fly back to the mission end landing zone.
Now fly exactely in the wrong direction, this means the arrow must be
in your back. A new corridor has opend up with a large ship and lots
of goodies.
Level 7: Fire and Ice (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
1. Blow up the two building complexes that look like a octopus and fly
to the south. Now there is a new open area with a secret place.
Level 8: Jump the Gun (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
1. Before entering the third sector search in the west for a passage
to a secret place. Lots of ammo there.
Level 9: No Escape
Secrets:
1. If you follow the escaping glider down the corridor, turn right
and then turn right at the next possibility again. This is a secret
place with some gliders and some ammo in it.
2. Right at the end of the course that the escaping glider takes there
is a secret place on the right. Here you will find the "Chaos Works"
power up.
Tip:
The escaping glider takes the same course every time. Learn it and
follow him with turbo on. The best weapons here are the missiles and
the swarmers. Use the missiles first.
Level 10: Cool surface (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
1. After you have beamed the second person on board, he will update
your map. Fly as far as possible to the north, where there is a secret
snow plateau with lots of goodies on it.
2. After you brought the guy with the bomb to his desired pplace, fly
to the west and fly along the 'gras' uo to the top untill you get to
a new installed farcaster. Shoot all bubbling plants and a well armed
area will open up on the bottom.
Tip:
After you have rescued the last guy (the one behind the air mine
field) he will tell you that the bomb he is carrying has already been
activated. Fly in tubo speed to the south west, land the glider and
take off immedeately and fly in turbo mode to the right and land
again. Now be carefull when taking off, because there is a cannon
right next to the place on the left.
Level 11: AKA Future Strike
Secrets:
1. Before you use the now unlocked farcaster and fly long the rocks as
far as possible to the south. He a secret place is located.
2. The second secret area is about north west of the farcaster with
the three turrets and is guarded by some gliders.
Level 12: Mudskipper
Secrets:
1. After you have killed the second large ship fly all the way back
to the south. A secret area is now accessable and you can find the
Chaos Works power up here. Attention: This place is well guarded by
another large ship and an air mine field.
2. Destroy the last target and the fly left and you will be in a
battle with a black large ship. Fly into the area behind the pipeline
and here is another secret place.
3. Collect all containers, but before returning to base fly all the
way up to the north on the right side of the river. You will find a
new farcaster. Use it and pick up the guy in the secret area. Fly
down south in that place and bring the man to the ship. But be
carefull. After he has entered the black ship, he will begin to attack
you. After the fight another ammo field is available.
Level 13: Melttown
Secrets: (these are hardly to describe, since there are no usefull
orientation points)
1. After you have survived the first air mine field and have picked
up Lt. Stark, don't follow the arrow now, but fly on to the north
west. You will get to a turret. No fly along the brown rocks to the
south west untill you reach a steel platform with three temples.
Blow up these temples and now search for a forcaster, that will bring
you to a secret place. (I know, quite unpractable, but how should I
describe it?)
2. After the rescue of Dr. Welby fly along the rocks on the left.
3. After you have killed the very large ship, discover the whole area.
In the south west you will find a secret canyon.
Level 14: Mission X (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
Well, I am not sure, if you have the time to search for the secret
places, but they are packed with shield restore and energy power ups.
1. After you have beaten the first large ship, a farcaster will be
installed two sections before that.
2. Perhaps you have seen the second door in the section before all
the sabotage trouble begins. This one opens after you have cleared
three sections of the sabotage area.
3. Didn't find it, but I am quite sure that it will open up, after
you have destroyed the second large ship.
Tip:
Well, the most important fact in this level is the loss of energy.
First I lost my head an flew around like a crazy fly. But also in the
sabotage sectores you first have to clear the entire sector or use
the switch to go on in the game. So stay cool, there are enough power
ups and shield restores placed in these sectors. Only use effective
heavy weapons, because you do not have both the time and the energy
for long battles.
Level 15: Watchdog
Secrets:
1. Clear the third sector anf fly to the entrance of the fourth
sector. Nor turn right into the opposite direction of the arrow and
fly with the arrow in your back. You will get to an air mine field.
Behind that you will discover a secret area.
2. After you have destroyed all ground and air weapons in sector four,
go back one sector, where you will find a new farcaster.
Tip:
Be carefull: When you get the order to go on to the next sector, it
does not mean that you have cleared the sector !
Level 16: Runaway (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
1. Guide the brabe to the end of the river, on the left side there is
a secret area with some goodies.
Level 17: One way out
Secrets:
1. There is a room that closes the door behind you and you have to
destroy all enemies to open the door up again. Return to this place
after you have pressed the switch in the next sector.
2. Destroy the first large ship and shoot the walls right to the tower
with the purple points on it. Fly into the new hole and you will get
to an secret area. Shoot the bunkers in there.
Tip:
Be carefull after you have found the second secret place. You will fly
into an air mine field that did not exist on the way there.
Level 18: Tool of War (1 secret missing)
Secrets:
1. The first secret place is right south from the beginning, but you
will have to win the first air-land-battle before it will open up.
Well, this is the result of my first confrontation with Fire Fight and
the secrets that I found by chance. No, that's a lie: I tried hard to
find all secrets, but I didn't manage it. If someone has found the one
or the other secret that is not in my list, feel invited to send them
to the DIRTY LITTLE HELPER to complete the list above.
2. Thanks
Thanks fly out to Ralf Korrek, who told me the last undiscovered secret
in level 2.
