I read but i havent got what is the exact thing that gives you extra EXTENDS..
Points? Chains?

what is the exact thing that gives you extra EXTENDS

It's been a wee while, but I think it's every 2 million points you get an extend.

I see everywhere that you guys chose C button configuration...mmmh, why?

The C button version is popular because it tends to kill things quickly which needs to be done in order to keep the multiplier going.

The videos on superplay and Icarus' guide should make understanding everything a bit easier.

ok so now i've seen the videos too...

But how can i unlock the other ships with a MAME emulated game? Are there codes or something like that?

The Unlimited Version ROM has all extras unlocked from the start.

World of Arcades has a lot of info on the raizing games here:

Zah? I have an Unlimited ver. PCB and I had to input the codes to unlock the extra modes and ships. Same with my ROM.

Thats odd...

I just rechecked the unlimited rom and everything is available from the start and the parent rom has no extras enabled when I start it up.

Does mame save your settings in bakraid? I know it usually saves your scoreboard which batrider doesn't do.

Yeah it saves my scores for Bakraid but not Batrider. The PCB saves scores too, which I don't think Batrider does.

Put this one back in the cab after my progress stalled in Ra.De. This score may not count though cause I have stage select on.

Advance course:

Acid King - 13,802,270 - Flame Viper [A] - Stage 6

PPA · Post by **PPA** » Wed Dec 06, 2006 5:44 pm

i just hit 4,303,XXX with the Flame Viper on normal course...but with a level less than my all-time best 4,700,xxxish !!!

Im starting to understand how to use the multiplier to my advantage, altough i have to work on timing...

You guys confirm me that is possible to do at least Sea Side and desert level with a multiplier goin on all the time?

I love this game!

You just ALL'ed Batrider yesterday, and you just ALL'ed Battle Bakraid with such a low score? o_O

I couldn't keep medal chain going in bakraid. It's much harder IMO than Batrider. I just started playing it so I haven't really figured out the scoring mechanics.

I should have been able to finish the course and break 7 mil, but made lots of stupid mistakes. Well, least my title's safe.

Boss Only:

I so need to figure out how to chain Axebeak, and possibly other bosses like Bahamut and Leviathen or however it's spelled in this game.

Bomb vs Jabberwock, Tiamat x2, Golem
Deaths at Tiamat, Gigamanta (stupid trapping 6way), Golem

Anybody have some tips to get a decent score on the first level without having uber skills?

I'd like more than my 200k for the level!

Can't wait till the PCB of this turns up

shoe-sama · Post by **shoe-sama** » Mon Jun 11, 2007 2:09 pm

I'm kinda practicing the Axebeak chain for stage 1, but haven't been able to pull it off successfully. I got 4.5M once, but that was a fluke since I haven't been able to do it again.

There's a 10M+ point strategy in Icarus's ST.

The targets of interest are the 2 wing flaps and cockpit on the boss's first phase. They're worth 50k each, which is the equivalent of 3.2M each with a x64 multiplier. Pulling it all off tricky though, since the wing flaps can only be destroyed while open and the cockpit's at the top of the screen. And obviously, one has to destroy the 6 missile launchers to build up to x64. All while fighting the chain timer. Bomb placement and timing is also quite unforgiving, since there's the issue of keeping the fuselage alive and stuff.

I know I have a higher score on the board, but I like the ALL by my name.

Now that the clear is out of the way...time to read up on icarus's lovely little strategy thread.

Tried this out. I can get to the last boss. Besides bombing, is there any way to get away from his spread shot? The one that starts wide and gets really narrow. Fucking ships move so fast it's hard to get in tight places.
