Tips

 

Read the manual; it gives the scoring for everything and has other important information.

 

Also from the manual:

-Don't fire constantly - preserve your ammunition.

-Pick up extra weapon supplies for maximum fire power.

-Don't hit civilians.

-Fire at the knife soldier before he gets the prisoner.

-Armored cars, gunboats and helicopters inflict the most damage. Aim at them first.

-Press the "A" button to speed up the screens that appear before and after each mission.

 

Also: if you are using/emulating a lightgun, press B plus the lightgun trigger to throw a grenade.

 

bust3dstr8:

Save most of your grenades for double armor kills, shoot right between a helicopter or boat and tank.

The splash will kill 'em both.

 

Shoot the chickens in the River stage they almost always drop grenades.

 

Make sure to shoot grenades...they hurt ALOT.

 

You can concentate on saving alot of POW's in the village stage, you get a free heal at end.

 

Go nuts with grenades in ammo dump, you get nine at end of round.

 

Don't even think of using the Zapper for this game....it sux balls.
