The only thing that can destroy 0 pod is raw antimatter, so the Pernitions have developed Vortex Towers to generate antimatter fields, They have instolled Vortex Towers on some of the worlds that utterly ae) the pods. Fortunately, the T-Gritfon is unaffected by these Vortex Towers, but pods ate lost forever if they are touched by the block anti-matter that Vortex Towers generate, TELEPORTERS Some worlds stil retoin a system of teleporters built before the orival of the Pernitia Empire These spinnin con be used by the T-Griffon to get into hord to reach areas on the world. Fortunately, the Pemnitia do not knaw how to use them or haw to destray them.

Practice levels that you are having trouble with by entering the sector code and trying the world right away, The order in which you conquer worlds may ffect how easy they are to complete. Keep your eyes open for special buildings and items—they may be critical to the liberation of a void Eneaues: Most enemies can be avoided with some fost flying. Some enemies will stay in one ared, others rove around. Watch your scanner for hostile enemies. You can kill enemies that are chasing you 7 flying backwards ond firing. If « hostile enemy is not near something you need, it is generally best to avoid them. Keep your eyes open for Pod Carriers that move pods (often near a Vortex Tower), and Cargo Carriers towing powerups. ‘CRASHING: Don’t try to fly over mountains thot are too high—go around them or try to find teleporters that will get you past them. Some buildings ore quite sturdy. The T-Griffon’s terrcin-following will not avoid buildings, so be careful about crashing into them—especially when flying backwards. Watch out for enemies that try to ram into you. Pops: When picking up pods, try to stay low to the ground. Remember that pods may be hidden inside prisons, Watch your scanner for the location of nearby pods. Remember that if 0 Vortex Tower destroys too ma ur pods you will have to do the planet over again, 0 quickly collect pods that are é Wearons: |f you are od wenpons opin i they hit it, ond are need ommo, so 1 Some worlds S lon B) west a a limmy.
