Does any who plays this game know the conditions for looping Raiden Dx Alpha or Bravo mission, i looked on the strategy thread but it doesn't explain shit. Can loop charlie mission no probs, but alpha just ends as 1-0, Bravo 1-5?

In Alpha/Novice Mission you have to No Miss No Bomb and get 6 or 7 of the gold pyramids, to advance to the loop.

There :)

I've been out of Shmupsland buying to much on AO for the last few days.

What's a going on here? Where's CHI and DEL (We didn't see you upstairs or downstairs last week papa DEL, and there's no new Zed Blade score from Uncle CHI either!).

I'm possibly down this week - and still offering my 1944 vertizontal PCB!

Other than that, I'm back on Dogyuun as the Zed has nailed my wristykins.

That A button is crap, so there's no point in try to drill it. Just tap normally. Autofire isn't an option on that cab.
See you later on Mr Smraedis.

Yeah the A button messed me up in one of the runs.. the game is slightly harder without autofire too, the bosses attacks move faster when not mashing away :lol:

Think I'll be able to put in some good scores when I get back home, I should try to get better at the later stages too.


Was really nice to see you DEL and CHI, shame that the credits on DFK just eat the time away though.

Great to see you on Thursday, Smraedis. Sorry I was around so long.

Also, me and m0nks hit up the hunting-themed pinball table on Casino's ground floor. It was called soemthing like Big Buck Hunting and it was damn exciting. Anybody else played it? You all should have a credit, just to experience the thrill of trying to shoot down the bastard plastic deer that scurries out.

I hit 16 million.

You can take out RaidenDx because its a waste of time playing without the max auto-fire rate. id rather play Shienryu (if anyone has the pcb) which is simular gameplay style but a better challenge in my option plus i didn't get to complete it. reached the final stage boss (at local arcade before it got turned into gambling centre). Not sure if anyone here has looped it.

It's alright, of course it was nice to see you, hopefully it will be for longer next time.
i'm not too sure when I'll be down next, will have a busy life for some time.

Oh I saw that pinball being played some, thought I wouldn't get anywhere on it though :D

I thought you'd be pretty good at pinball.

I'm not going to be in this week or next, thanks to a work trip to the states, so I'll see you all in a fortnight!

Yeah I have the Shienryu STV cart with board. It could be installed in Goodge - yes.

CHI - remember ZED BLADE.

I'm just about ok at it, very inconsistant but I don't play it enough to be any good.


And DEL, I've just lost my 1st place on Psyvariar Medium Unit today, I must have saw into the future when I said that I wasn't first anymore on it. :lol:

Consider yourself a failure.

Get it back for the sake of Namakoteam :wink: :!:

STRAT Here:-
作曲:黃家駒/黃家強/黃貫中 作詞:林振強  天天清早最歡喜 在這火車中再重逢妳 迎著 妳那似花氣味 難定下夢醒日期 玻璃窗把妳反映 讓眼睛可一再纏綿妳 無奈妳那會知我在凝望著萬千傳奇 願永不分散 祈求路軌當中 永沒有終站 woo-oh 盼永不分散 仍然幻想一天我是妳終站 妳輕倚我臂彎 火車嗚嗚那聲響 在耳邊偏偏似柔柔唱 難道妳教世間漂亮 和默令夢境漫長 多渴望告訴妳知 心裡面我那意思 多渴望可得到妳的那注視 又再等一個站 看妳意思 三個站盼妳會知 千個站妳卻似仍未曾知
