My personal best for skill 4 is 280,210,000 on July 10, 2011. All bases & cities saved. To this day it's the only game where I didn't lose at least 1 city on skill 4. I've had 8 games, including yesterdays, where I lost only 1 city. Edited April 17, 2022 by ed1475 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northcoastgamer Posted April 17, 2022 Author Share Posted April 17, 2022 ^ Thanks. I had a good run. The Satellite showed up at the right time for the northern areas under the 2 minute mark when things get crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaphro72 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 940,000 Not bad considering I didn’t remember how to fire my missiles at all on that run ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any tips on how to improve? Check the entire U.S. Map (8 on the keypad) constantly to see what areas the missiles and planes are closing in on. Clear an area then check the map. At the start, the northern areas (Usually Defense Sector B) get hit first. Learning how to get your jets on the right line to take out other jets fast without out having to redirect is a must. Lots of multi tasking. The Coleco controller works great for this game. Keep an eye out for the Satellite. You can clear an entire area quickly with the Satellite. It follows the same flight path pretty much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuggerVideoGames Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 [Skill 4]: 109,910,000 pts. Didn't do too well. Felt like I rarely ever had a chance to use the satellite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikrananka Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 @Northcoastgamer Thanks for the tips. I likely don't get my jets efficiently lined up and often have to redirect so that certainly loses me time focussing on one area when my attention is needed elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets move slowly so take out the missiles first in an area. If another area has missiles to eliminate, get them first, then go back to areas with the jets.
