R-Type Final 2 Stage X4.0 with Kenrokuen R-Typer
5This video is part of a larger playlist called the Ship Showcase for R-Type Final 2. This is the third video that I recorded.
Ships in this series: Hakusan, Asanogawa, Kenrokuen
The Kenrokuen is part of a series of ships that uses a pile bunker in place of a laser Wave Cannon, and as such, is very short range, but very powerful. The Defensive Force with the red weapon fires a twin laser, the blue fires two 45 degree angle lasers from the top and bottom of the Force, and the yellow weapon fires a beam that curves from under the Force and drops artillery on the enemies, making it more useful than some other yellow weapons. When detached, the Defensive Force fires in a vertical X shaped pattern. There are a variety of Bits and Missiles that you can choose, but I went with standard Homing Missiles because of their versatility, and the Shield Bits for the extra defensive coverage. One of my problems with this series of ships is that the ship's graphic is larger than its hitbox, probably because the pile bunker is loaded into the bottom of the ship, so you'll see me graze through the warship at times because of that.
I chose the DLC Warship Out of Hell stage because the boss encounter is close range. I wanted to do stage 3.0 from the main game, but I kept dying on R-Typer. Hell, I kept dying in stage X4.0, but at least it was shorter overall. It took me a few tries to get through this stage because I was out of practice.
The Warship Out of Hell is an homage stage from R-Type's stage 3. It's a nice touch that they made the floor and ceiling lava or acid (it varies when you play) to make it lethal to the ship, so no touching the walls here, haha.
