Goochman Posted June 5, 2005 Author Share Posted June 5, 2005 Instructions here: http://www.atarihq.com/5200/manuals/dread.html I destroyed just about everything on the Dreadnaught with no luck - anyone want to point out excatly what the vents are? The 'stargate screen' - I presume there is nothing to do but see the status here? Looks like something else should happen but I dont see it.

Finally a game I'm master of!!! 1) I suppose we all play at level 7. This level is most difficult and has 99 rounds. 2) Ship can be destroyed by destroying all objects with four horizontal lines. 3) "Star gate" is there for info only. It informs you about points and about distance from attacking enemy ship. 4) All enemy ships have 4 engines and they "fly" 15 miles/one your mission. Destroying any engine means speed - 2 => enemy still "fly" without any engine at 9 miles/one your mission (at level 7). 5) Scoring: small turret = 1 point gun of big turret = 5 points slow big bomb "sitting" on ship = 5 points thrower of "stars" = 5 points fast small bomb "sitting" on ship = 10 points object between "stars" throwers = 10 points flying slow big bomb = 10 points object with four horizontal lines = 20 points flying "stars" from thrower = 25 points engine = 25 points flying fast small bomb = 25 points black blinking object = 50 points small ball thrown by small turret = 50 points big ball thrown by gun of big turret = 75 points ultra fast disk thrown by slow big bomb = 100 points destroying whole ship = 10 points each mile of destroyed ship distance from your base = 10 points each saved fighter at the end of game (after 99 rounds at level 7) = 5000 points. F. BTW: my personal record of this game is 804.794 points. Edited June 5, 2005 by _Fandal_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 (edited) LEVEL 7??? Are you nuts??? _Fandal_, I predict you win this week! BTW, I wouldnt say Star Gate is there for info only. If the current Dreadnaught reaches it, it's GAME OVER. Vents are the black vertical ovals. Edited June 5, 2005 by RJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybergoth Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Hi there! But level 3 is only 2 dreadnaughts, you can finish them off in 5 minutes. Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goochman Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 How do you drop bombs? 869186[/snapback] Keep hitting the fire button - you will see a small bomb looking thing come out every 2nd or 3rd shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cybergoth Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Hi there! Whooha, after several hours of hard gaming I'm back with new personal record! Say, since you're such an expert player on this game, can you tell me how many different dreadnaught types do exist in this game?

Greetings, Manuel 901546[/snapback] I had to beat sixteen dreadnaughts to make screenshots of all seven types but I did it for you! Unpack attachment and try to beat dreadnaught type 7 if you want to test your skills. It's my favourite enemy! Used emulator: Atari800Win PLus beta 6.

Cybergoth Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Hi there! I had to beat sixteen dreadnaughts to make screenshots of all seven types but I did it for you! Amazing! Thanks! Looking at those, I think I never made past the one that is looking like a baseball field Unpack attachment and try to beat dreadnaught type 7 if you want to test your skills. It's my favourite enemy! Used emulator: Atari800Win PLus beta 6. Cool, thanks again! Greetings, Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
