THE COMPLETE SOLUTION OF
THE LAST DYNASTY

ACTION PART

SIMULATION, EARTH: Easy levels, just practice the game.

MALCHUS: You have missiles for the first time. When the carrier shows up, don't go after it, but lock the eagle and get this first. Of course, don't shoot the allied vessel.

PROTECTION: Nothing but more enemies. When the spying device is off, lock the planet and wait for the landing.

MEN: Don't destroy the base. Keep your eyes constantly on the allied shuttle and always lock the enemy vessel that is the closest threat for it. When only the base is left, just wait until you get the message "shuttle is ready".

XB4_1: Kill all the enemies except for the barge. When only the barge is left, follow it until you find the co-ordinates of the planet (you are informed by the game). Only now, destroy it.

RIDACK: You can't land with the satellites on sight, but you can't survive the enemies when you destroy them. What can you do? Look at the map. You will see an enemy barge accompanied by warheads. Leave the satellites untouched and shoot all the warheads. Then follow the barge, which goes to the same planet that you want to land on. When the barge reaches the satellites, it signals to them so that they let it pass. Stick behind it, and you will pass as well.

XB4_3: Just kill the enemies and land.

MOD: Don't waste your weapons from the beginning. Wait until you get the message that strong enemy bombers are on their way, and an ally tells you to follow him in the asteroid field. Go there at once (when you look at the map, you will see an area with small white spots, and an allied vessel waiting there) and stay covered behind him. When Vana tells you that the decoys are ready, start the action until all 6 bandits are vanished.

KYAK: Destroy the enemy fighters first and then the barges. At some point 8 more bandits will appear, but the planet will be "opened". Lock the planet and go there at full speed. You will land, avoiding the enemies.

SYMEST4_2: Very difficult level. First, you will go to the left side of the 21 bandits in horizontal line, and you will start throwing rockets and simoultaneously move slightly to the right. This way, you should be able to get them all before they pass behind you. You should also have 7-8 rockets left after the massacre, and your shield should not be destroyed. Some more stingers attack, which you will eliminate using missiles and mines. Use your laser to destroy the pulse and armoury and get ready for some more fighters that come in groups and so they will be destroyed with the remaining rockets. You will kill about 45 bandits in this level.

ALONE: Leave the satellites for the end, and destroy as quickly as possible , the barge, which is a moving-bomb. When you destroy the wasps as well, trying to have some mines and missiles left, shoot the satellites and get ready for another small group of enemies (now you can call for reinforcements and finish the level more easily. You can't do this from the beginning, because the allies may shoot some of the satellites, making the level impossible to finish).

RETURN: Use your weapons wisely, because you don't have lots of them. Especially take good care of the mines. Call for reinforcements and tell your allies which enemy to attack. Get for yourself always the closest enemy.

DOK: Quickly exterminate the three enemy fighters that shoot you in the beginning, using missiles. Next comes a group of 6 stingers, which you will destroy with a rocket. Now look at the map: You will see many enemy vessels around an armoury, waiting to rearm. Go there and use your rockets to eliminate the enemy groups you will meet on the way. Then shoot down the armoury. 5-6 more bandits will come (a total of 24 in this level) which won't make things too difficult for you. If everything is done properly, the carrier won't show up and the level will be finished. If something goes wrong and you face the carrier, restore the battle from the beginning. It is unbeatable.

FINAL: Look at the map. You will see a base surrounded by enemy changers. Lock one of the closest changers and go there in full speed, ignoring the fighters that shoot you from the rear. When you get close, the changers will become invisible and you will lie still. At this time, lock the enemy fighters behind you and start shooting at them with all your weapons. If you can stand the attack for a while, you will move to the endgame without having to kill all the bandits. Don't shoot the changers.

No fish inside, and the lid is open! Put on sealed spacesuit and only then use capsule on lid. The substance in the capsule kills all the guards, but not you since the sealed spacesuit protects you. Now the rooms right and north of the aquarium open. You will find the circuit board there . Go in the lab, in the robot room, update your badge to level 3. (You will have to use the circuit board instead of the bracelet, this time) Continue straight ahead, enter the door at the end of the corridor, and leave this new room through the red door. You will find the jack in the new locations. Look around for a winch. You will use it later. Now take the elevator to level 1, and go to the pylon. There is a closed cabinet there.
