Level 2: Hot Cargo

Secret:

After you have unloaded the containers three times, fly back to the pipeline, beam back to the other sector and fly the way back to the starting point. You will now find a new farcaster. Use it and pick up all people in this secret area. One guy has to be bombed free in one of the power towers. Beware of the glider.

Tip: Shot the ventilator tower to get another three container places.

Level 3: New Order

Secret:

1. After you have completed the mission, say you have found the last three crashed guys, fly to the final landing place and then fly south and search the rocks for an entry to the secret place. You find a double shield.

Tip: After you have picked up the first guy, fly to the rocks next to the landing place. Some air mines will now crash into the rocks. Activate the turbo before you let your passenger get out. Fly as fast as you can to the upper right end of this sector.

Level 6: Insurance

1. Clear the second sector then fly back to the first sector. You will find a new farcaster that will send you to a secret place with lots of swarmer ammo.

3. After you have cleared both secret areas and have destroyed all buildings in all sectors, fly back to the mission end landing zone. Now fly exactely in the wrong direction, this means the arrow must be in your back. A new corridor has opend up with a large ship and lots of goodies.

1. Before entering the third sector search in the west for a passage to a secret place. Lots of ammo there.

Level 9: No Escape

Secrets:

2. Right at the end of the course that the escaping glider takes there is a secret place on the right. Here you will find the “Chaos Works” power up.

Tip:

The escaping glider takes the same course every time. Learn it and follow him with turbo on. The best weapons here are the missiles and the swarmers. Use the missiles first.

Level 10: Cool surface (1 secret missing)

Secrets:

1. After you have beamed the second person on board, he will update your map. Fly as far as possible to the north, where there is a secret snow plateau with lots of goodies on it.

Tip:

After you have rescued the last guy (the one behind the air mine field) he will tell you that the bomb he is carrying has already been activated. Fly in tubo speed to the south west, land the glider and take off immedeately and fly in turbo mode to the right and land again. Now be carefull when taking off, because there is a cannon right next to the place on the left.

Level 11: AKA Future Strike

Secrets:

1. Before you use the now unlocked farcaster and fly long the rocks as far as possible to the south. He a secret place is located.

3. Collect all containers, but before returning to base fly all the way up to the north on the right side of the river. You will find a new farcaster. Use it and pick up the guy in the secret area. Fly down south in that place and bring the man to the ship. But be carefull. After he has entered the black ship, he will begin to attack you. After the fight another ammo field is available.

Level 13: Melttown

Secrets: (these are hardly to describe, since there are no usefull orientation points)

1. After you have survived the first air mine field and have picked up Lt. Stark, don’t follow the arrow now, but fly on to the north west. You will get to a turret. No fly along the brown rocks to the south west untill you reach a steel platform with three temples. Blow up these temples and now search for a forcaster, that will bring you to a secret place. (I know, quite unpractable, but how should I describe it?)

2. After the rescue of Dr. Welby fly along the rocks on the left.

3. After you have killed the very large ship, discover the whole area. In the south west you will find a secret canyon.

Level 14: Mission X (1 secret missing)

Secrets:

Well, I am not sure, if you have the time to search for the secret places, but they are packed with shield restore and energy power ups.

1. After you have beaten the first large ship, a farcaster will be installed two sections before that.

2. Perhaps you have seen the second door in the section before all the sabotage trouble begins. This one opens after you have cleared three sections of the sabotage area.

3. Didn’t find it, but I am quite sure that it will open up, after you have destroyed the second large ship.

Tip:

Well, the most important fact in this level is the loss of energy. First I lost my head an flew around like a crazy fly. But also in the sabotage sectores you first have to clear the entire sector or use the switch to go on in the game. So stay cool, there are enough power ups and shield restores placed in these sectors. Only use effective heavy weapons, because you do not have both the time and the energy for long battles.

Level 15: Watchdog

Secrets:

1. Clear the third sector anf fly to the entrance of the fourth sector. Nor turn right into the opposite direction of the arrow and fly with the arrow in your back. You will get to an air mine field. Behind that you will discover a secret area.

2. After you have destroyed all ground and air weapons in sector four, go back one sector, where you will find a new farcaster.

Tip:

Be careful: When you get the order to go on to the next sector, it does not mean that you have cleared the sector !

Level 16: Runaway (1 secret missing)

Secrets:

1. Guide the brabe to the end of the river, on the left side there is a secret area with some goodies.

Level 17: One way out

Secrets:

1. There is a room that closes the door behind you and you have to destroy all enemies to open the door up again. Return to this place after you have pressed the switch in the next sector.

2. Destroy the first large ship and shoot the walls right to the tower with the purple points on it. Fly into the new hole and you will get to an secret area. Shoot the bunkers in there.

Tip:

Be careful after you have found the second secret place. You will fly into an air mine field that did not exist on the way there.

Level 18: Tool of War (1 secret missing)

Secrets:

1. The first secret place is right south from the beginning, but you will have to win the first air-land-battle before it will open up.

Well, this is the result of my first confrontation with Fire Fight and the secrets that I found by chance. No, that’s a lie: I tried hard to find all secrets, but I didn’t manage it. If someone has found the one or the other secret that is not in my list, feel invited to send them to the DIRTY LITTLE HELPER to complete the list above.
