I do not like this level very much. The blizzard element makes it very difficult to see, and when playing it for the first time, it can take quite a long time to find the 3 tower targets. Not to mention, turrets, huge rolling enemies, and bomb-throwing enemies are everywhere! Smaller enemies can also be a nuisance, especially the shooting ones, as they can be shooting at the Landmaster while you're trying to take down a large enemy. Still, the wing-riding part is fun. As you can see, I'm a bit more "vocal" in this part than I have been in previous parts.

Primary Mission:
Destroy the Power Supply towers to take the Climate Control Center's shield down

Mission Update:
Destroy all sentry bots

Mission Update:
Ride on and protect Falco's arwing

Boss:
Aparoid Infected tower

Level Strategy for Badge:
Another on foot level, guys. You know the drill. However, in the blizzard, it's difficult to see what you're aiming at. Therefore, if your reticle turns red, shoot! There are a couple of turret fields (one on the ground, one is elevated), and several turrets appear on walls and roofs of bridges/tunnels. Be sure to also take down as many huge rolling enemies (Hit +5 enemies) as you can while still keeping your combo. You get a Gatling Gun for taking down the two of them that guard a tower.

Inside the Climate Control Center, you may lose your combo here trying to destroy the sentry bots. Not to worry, as soon as Falco comes in to save you, you'll get it right back up. Use the provided machine gun, or Gatling gun mentioned earlier, to take out several of the bots of the many that appear just before Falco's arrival.

While riding on Falco's wing, use the plasma cannon (Fox already has it equipped when the wing riding mission starts) to destroy everything. Even take out the free targets on the ground when you can. Be SURE to destroy the lock-on enemies (the orange ones) or they will seriously do some damage to Falco's Arwing. If you destroy every single enemy, you should get a 150+ combo by the time Peppy notifies you of the Arwing Transfer.


Boss Strategy:
As you can possibly tell, I really dislike this boss. It normally doesn't take me so long to defeat it (this is the longest it's taken me, on any difficulty). But, here is the strategy I present to you.

The boss is only weakened by bombs. You can get them by shooting at the little enemy things it spews out. You must fire the bombs into the boss when its hatch opens, but this is easier said than done. Whenever its hatch is open, it is either spewing out enemies that can make your bomb explode before it enters the boss, or it's firing its giant laser beam (lol "laz0r"). Not to mention, it's also walking around in circles, which makes it difficult to decently aim into the thing. My advice is to continuously collect bombs and rapid-fire them into the hatch whenever it's spewing out enemies. Do NOT go near the hatch while it's firing the energy beam.
Difficulty: ****

Enjoy!
