MORNING

Our attack aircraft have put a serious dent in the bug-eye's fuel supply. In an attempt to protect their storage facilities better, they have been trying to enclose them in force fields. Our recon teams have reported that they are having serious problems with the force field effect detonating the fuel tanks. Get in the air right away and destroy their generator orb while they are distracted with the force fields. If you fly low over the fuel dumps, you may get a glimpse of some of the alien work crews. There is reported one fuel installation that is in no danger from the force fields. You may want to take this one out after blowing the orb. An enemy saucer has just lifted off to the east of us. Get out there on the double and blow it out of the sky. Heavy KLA activity has been reported in that area, so keep an eye on your rear view at all times. As you may recall from your training, KLA's are fooled by pulling up or down at the last minute, then pounding them with your cannons as soon as they pass in front of you. Also dropping a bomb when one is right on your tail will trigger their detonation too early, thus allowing you to escape damage. Those saucers can take a beating, so don't economize on missles and ammo. You can tell by the pitch of the whoosing sound how close they are to being destroyed. Some of the more advanced saucers will make bombing runs on your airstrip, and spout KLA's for defense. To the west of here is an alien complex which is wreaking havoc on our operations. Unfortunately, the generator orb seems to be a type which is indestructible with normal ordnance. The only way to destroy this fiendish devices is by ramming it with your plane. This is just as well, since there is some really tough resistance on this mission, and you might well be walking back anyway. Get the plane on an imminent collision course with the orb, then eject at the last moment. Becareful to time it correctly, since the plane can rebound from the explosion, and you may find yourself going down with the ship! The intelligence officers assure everybody that the fact that the destruction of your aircraft will not count against you as a lost plane. An enemy intelligence complex has sprung up to the south of us. Deep in the center of a fortress lies your target. By taking out this orb you will deny command an control for a large portion of the enemies forces. Getting at this target will require some technique. Possible methods might be to dive bomb from the top, or coming in low and slow up the chute. Beware of screaming up one of the corridors... if you are coming up on your target too fast, you may not have enough time to get the necessary number of hits in. Then you will find it difficult to pull around the still-intact orb without hitting the walls.
