\_.: GAME CHARACTERS :._/
REBEL <<--o-->>
Luke Skywalker
> The greatest hero of the Rebel Alliance, Luke Skywalker needs
little introduction. Among his accomplishments are blowing up the
first Death Star, rescuing his twin sister Princess Leia, and helping
to fend off the Imperial forces in the Battle of Hoth so that the
Rebel base there could be evacuated. After the Battle of Yavin, Luke
and Wedge Antilles formed Rogue Squadron.
Wedge Antilles
> One of Rogue Squadron's true aces, this native of Corellia was
orphaned as a teenager, then began smuggling weapons for the Rebels.
Once he took to flying X-wing starfighters, he soon proved himself to
be a crack fighter pilot and an extremely competent, if low-profile,
leader. Wedge saved Luke Skywalker during the attack on the first
Death Star at the Battle of Yavin. Later, they formed Rogue Squadron
together.
Dack Ralter
> This young Alliance hero was Luke Skywalker's airspeeder gunner
during the defense of the Rebel base at Hoth. Dack's parents were
political prisoners of the Empire, and he escaped from an Imperial
prison barge when he was a teenager. Ralter is skilled as both a
pilot and a gunner.
Wes Janson
> This tough, smart, action-loving lieutenant was a gunner in Wedge
Antilles' airspeeder during the Battle of Hoth, and helped bring down
an AT-AT walker by tangling its legs in a cable. Janson is a past
winner of the True Gunner award for outstanding accuracy. This Rogue
is one of those rare soldiers who is as competent on the ground as he
is in the air, and can shoot and fly with tremendous skill.
Zev Senesca
> A highly-decorated pilot and long-time member of the Rebel
Alliance, Senesca shot down 48 Imperial craft prior to the Battle of
Hoth. Politically motivated to join the Rebel forces, Senesca was
motivated by tragedy after his parents were killed by the Empire.
Derek ("Hobbie") Klivian
> That rare pilot who is both extremely capable and extremely
humble, Hobbie was a former Imperial cadet who mutinied and deserted
his Imperial Academy training to join the Rebel Alliance. Hobbie has
a reputation for enjoying bacta baths, as well as for crashing every
craft he touches and surviving.
Carlist Rieekan
> This former officer in the Old Republic army joined the Rebel
Alliance after his home planet, Alderaan, was vaporized by the first
Death Star. Rieekan was named Theater Commander in charge of all
Rebel ground and fleet forces in the Hoth System. Later, he was
forced to evacuate the Hoth base when it was overrun by Imperial
forces. After the Hoth evacuation, General Rieekan was given command
of military operations for the Rebel Alliance.
IMPERIAL <<--o-->>
Crix Madine
> This Corellian is a highly-decorated Imperial officer. He
originally earned his reputation as a brilliant leader in charge of
the Storm Commandos, an elite Imperial army unit. Madine would later
defect and take up the cause of the Rebellion.
Kasan Moor
> This native of Alderaan was one of the rising stars in the
Imperial Navy, quickly moving up in ranks from crack TIE Fighter
pilot to leader of the 128th TIE Interceptor Squadron. Her allegiance
toward the Empire soon wavered, however, when she was informed that
her home planet had been obliterated by the Death Star. While she
continues to distinguish herself by flying with the 128th, Moor is
contemplating defection to the Rebel forces, since she believes that
her allegiance to the Imperial forces means nothing if they can
coldly destroy her friends and family.
Moff Kohl Seerdon
> Formerly Kasan Moor's mentor, Imperial Moff Seerdon is now angry
at her, since he is not sure which side she is fighting for. Moff
Seerdon is attempting to consolidate bacta supplies under his
control, and sees Rogue Squadron as a threat to his plans for
domination.

X-WING
Named for its unique double-layered wings, or S-foils, this ship
is one of the most versatile weapons in the Rebel Alliance. In
combat, it's S-foils are opened to give it grater maneuverability.
These S-foils are closed during normal flight, so it can fly
faster while still pulling off advanced aerobatics such as rolls.
The X-Wing is formidably armed, with high-powered blaster cannons
in its wing tips, plus proton torpedo launchers on its main
space-frame. With its reinforced titanium alloy hull and
high-powered shield generators, the X-Wing can take a barrage of
minor hits and still keep flying.
Primary Weapon: Four Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Proton Torpedoes
Special: Open / Close S-Foils

A-WING
This is the fastest starfighter in the Rebel Alliance. The A-wing
can outrun most ships in the Imperial Navy, making it ideal for
Rogue Squadron's hit-and-run missions. Its powerful armament
includes twin wing-mounted pivoting blaster cannons and concussion
missiles. Although the A-wing is highly maneuverable in dogfights,
it cannot sustain much battle damage, and its cockpit design
exposes its pilot to enemy fire.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Concussion Missiles
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO

* Speed: 120 MGLT.
* Shields/hull: 50 SBD/ 15 RU.
Y-WING
A cross between a fighter and a bomber, the Y-wing formed the
backbone of the Rebel Alliance starfighter fleet prior to the
introduction of the X-wing. The workhorse Y-wing is larger,
slower, and less maneuverable than the X-wing, and has difficulty
against the more agile Imperial craft. However, it is extremely
durable, and heavily armed with blasters, an ion cannon, and
bombs, making it ideal for bombing and strafing runs against
surface targets.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Bombs
Special: Ion Cannon
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO
* Laser cannons (2) Taim & Dak KX3 (single fire or
fire-linked).

* Speed: 80 MGLT.
* Shields/hull: 75 SBD/ 40 RU.
AIRSPEEDER
A nickname for the Incom T-47, this craft made a valiant defense
at the Battle of Hoth against Imperial forces, enabling the Rebels
to evacuate their base. An airspeeder is limited to low altitudes,
is unable to perform elaborate acrobatic maneuvers such as rolls,
and has no shields. It compensates for this with fast speed and
small size that make it a difficult target for Imperial weapons.
This craft is armed with two blaster cannons, plus a tow cable to
tangle AT-ATs.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Tow Cable
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO
* Model: Combat Snowspeeder.
* Crew: One pilot and one gunner.
* flight ceiling: 175 kilometers.
* Maximum speed 570 kph.
* Weapons: Two laser cannons (fire-linked) and Power
harpoon launcher.
V-WING AIRSPEEDER
With its lightweight and swift speed, the V-wing has a definite
advantage over the airspeeder. It features a scram jet and a huge
booster. Use the scram jet and weapons sparingly, or the engines
will overheat. The V-Wing's weapons are already linked, so
increase the fire rate with the Fire Mode Button. These also
overheat if used too often.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Cluster Missiles
Special: Boosters
T-47 SKYHOPPER (Bonus)
This craft can only be used on the bonus stage of Beggar's Canyon.
It is fast an has an excellent turning capability. But linked with
it's speed and lack of any type of shields, and contact could be
the last thing you see.
Primary Weapon: Single Laser Cannon
MILLENNIUM FALCON (Secret)
Despite her outward appearance, the Falcon is not the standard
YT-1300 cargo vessel she seems. Heavily modified form her
original stock configuration, the Millennium Falcon has acquired
capabilities unheard of in Corellian standard freighters. Able to
reach point five beyond lightspeed, she is one of the fastest
non-Imperial vessels currently in use and owes much of her power
availability curve to a vast array of unregistered and normally
incompatible computer and thrust system modifications.
Primary Weapon: Quad Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Proton Torpedoes
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO
* Engine is a Drive system Matrix with Steering flaps.
* Five escape pots placed in aft of the ship.
* Two loading ports left and right of the ship, a upper
hatch with lift and a loading ramp.
* Two Quadlaser turret systems.
TIE INTERCEPTOR (Secret)
This dagger-shaped starfighter is more than a match for the Rebel
craft, it's nearly as fast as an A-wing and more maneuverable than
an X-wing. The weapons include four blaster cannons with advanced
targeting software for greater accuracy. It has little armor and
no shield generators, it can easily be destroyed with a few direct
hits.
Primary Weapon: Quad Laser Cannons
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO
* Engines (2) SFS p-s5.6 Twin Ion Engines Rated at 175 KTU.
* SFS n-s6 Navcon computer system beneath the pilot.
* Sensor Array SFS S-c4.1 Multi-range TAG beneath the pilot.
* Flight control system SFS F-s4 Flight avionics system
placed left of cockpit.
* Solar Panels Supplemental laser power Quadanium steel
armor Rated at 20 RU.
* Laser cannons (4) SfS L-s9.3 (single fire or fire-linked).
BLACK CADILLAC (Secret)
This craft is only a special 'looks' craft. It has all the same
characteristics of a V-Wing. But you now get the chance to fly a
powerful 'flying' black cadillac.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Cluster Missiles
Special: Boosters
NABOO N-1 STARFIGHTER (Secret) ((Information from Jack Chen ))
The Naboo Royal Starfighter was the predecessor to starfighters
such as the Incom T-65 X-Wing. Like the X-Wing, it sports
blasters, projectile missiles, shielding as well as an R2 unit
for interfacing and improvement of starfighter operations.
The Naboo Royal Starfighter is armed with 2 laser cannons, 2
seeker torpedo launchers as well as an energy shielding and an R2
unit. This configuration allows it, much like the X-Wing to take
damage, while dishing out damage in turn to inferior crafts. As a
result, the Naboo Royal Starfighter was capable for defending
Naboo from the most vile of the galaxy's criminals, including the
Greedy Trade Federation.
Primary Weapon: Twin Laser Cannons
Secondary Weapon: Seeker Torpedo
Special: Shielding and a R2 unit

\_.: CRAFT ARMAMENT :._/
FIRING BLASTER CANNONS
Most craft in Rogue Squadron are armed with blaster cannons as
their primary weapon. Fire your blasters during a mission by
pressing the Fire Blasters Button. You can tap this button for
individual shots, or hold it for continuous fire.
Most craft in Rogue Squadron have two blasters, except the X-Wing,
which has four. With the X-Wing, you can fire your blasters
seperately, fire two together (sending out pairs of blaster
blasts), or fire all four together (sending out four blaster
blasts at once). Press the Fire Mode Button repeatedly to cycle
between these firing modes. The blasters on the airspeeder do not
have linking capability. You cannot link secondary weapons like
missiles.
FIRING SECONDAY WEAPONS
In addition to blaster cannons, each craft will have different
secondary weapons:
X-WING: Proton torpedoes
Y-WING: Bombs
A-WING: Missiles
V-WING: Cluster missiles
AIRSPEEDER: Tow Cable
To fire these weapons, press the Fire Secondary Button.
ACQUIRING ADVANCED WEAPONS
Throughout the game there will be secret challenges for
discovering new weapon technologies. These technologies will
improve the effectiveness of either the primary or secondary
weapon systems. After discovering a new technology, the primary or
secondary weapon system will automatically be upgraded on all
appropriate craft.
.-\:. --- .:. --- .:. --- .:. --- * --- .:. --- .:. --- .:. --- .:/-.
\_.: REBEL WEAPONS :._/
PRIMARY WEAPON
Blaster Cannon
Also known as a laser cannon, this is the most widely used
weapon in the galaxy. It repeatedly fires bolts of coherent
light, an intense energy that inflicts significant damage.
SECONDARY WEAPONS
Each craft has a secondary weapon. An icon for the weapon and how
many you have available appears in the bottom left corner of the
screen (Icon appears in console in Cockpit Mode.)
Proton Torpedo
A proton torpedo is armed with a proton-scattering energy
warhead that inflicts heavier damage than an ordinary missile.
There is also an advanced version that has a seeking device
that allows it to follow a moving target.
Concussion Missile
When this sub-lightspeed projectile hits home, it creates
powerful shock waves that can penetrate even the heaviest armor
to obliterate its target. These air-to-air and air-to-ground
weapons are most effective against stationary targets. A
concussion missile will travel in a straight line once it's
fired, and can only be fired one at a time. These are not as
powerful as protons, and seeking versions are available.
Cluster Missile
Each of these weapons breaks apart into five smaller warheads
shortly after launch. This results in a "spread" effect that
increases the chances of hitting a target or inflicting more
damage. A seeking version is available.
Bombs
Only the Y-Wing is armed with these destructive weapons, which
can be dropped on ground targets. They have a large blast
radius, to inflict heavy damage over a wide area. Bombs can
damage your own craft if dropped at a low altitude. An advanced
version is available.
Tow Cable
Airspeeders are fitted with a harpoon gun that launches a
high-powered, barbed projectile attached to a retractable
flexisteel tow cable.

\_.: FLYING TIPS FROM LUCASARTS :._/
1 - Use your radar screen to fly in the right direction towards
your mission objectives. Fly so you keep the wedge shape
oriented to the top of the radar at 12 o'clock.
2 - Use the thrust and brake to match the enemy's speed or to
more easily attack a ground target.
3 - Pay close attention to directions from General Rieekan and
your wingmates.
4 - Be on the lookout for enemy bombers, and attack them before
attacking fighters. Bombers do more damage to critical Rebel
installations.
5 - (Ground targets only) For a more effective attack, line up
your targets by making long, straight runs. Avoid the
temptation to make quick turns in pursuit of your targets.
Instead, fly far away, then turn around and fly toward your
targets from a distance, using your brakes. You'll be able to
keep them in your sights longer -- and score more hits. But
you'll also be in enemy sights...
6 - Find the keyboard, joystick or mouse configurations and
camera views best suited to your flying style.
7 - (Speeder or V-wing only) For more control in turn, use the
right or left brake to tighten your turn in either direction.
8 - Use a loop-the-loop move to bear down on an enemy that has
passed you by.
9 - To avoid missile turrets, fly fast and low.

\_.: IMPERIAL CRAFT AND DEFENCES :._/
ARMORED HOVER TRAIN
With cars heavily defended by numerous gun implacments and missile
turrets, strafing runs against this mobile target are diffuclut at
best.
AT-AT
Short for All Terrain Armored Transport, the four-legged imperial
walker strikes terror into the heart of any defender. This
mechanized beast is armed with blaster cannons underneath its
"chin" and medium blasters on each side of its "head," and has
thick armor plating to protect it from most types of artillery
fire. Try to wrap the tow cable around the "legs" of an AT-AT with
a airspeeder to bring the behemoth down.
TECHNICAL CRAFT INFO
* Vehicle class is All Terrain Armord Transport.

superior speed and formidable firepower more than make up for its
weaknesses.
