Guide To Missions
This section is a guide to the missions of Harrier Attack II.
For each mission more in-depth guidance is given beyond the terse
mission briefing. There are also hints and tips on how to get ahead
and win all of the awards available.
Most missions have training exercises
to try before playing the mission proper.
The missions are divided into to three groups:
Playing Missions
You may decide to play a South or West Island mission for
several possible reasons:
- It is a new mission that you havn't played before. You must
always acheive the first objective in order to unlock the next
mission and progress through the game. This may be all that you
wish to acheive and, to a certain extent, this is a perfectly
legitimate tactic. There may be no awards here that you need or are
interested in at the moment. You can always come back to it later.
As you progress through the game though, you will find progress
difficult is you haven't won enough gear to fall back on. On the
other hand, coming back to a mission when you have won more awards
on others may make it easier.
- You need to win a particular award in order to progress. When
you acheive certain objectives you are given the opportunity to
select a mission award, or swap a previously won award for a
different one. Sometimes (though rarely) a particular item may be
essential to make good progress through the missions. If this is
the case then a hint is given in the mission briefing. Your award
must be chosen with care and thought. If you later change your mind
you must replay the mission to swap the award for a different one,
or do better next time and acheive more objectives. The order in
which you accept awards may also be important. It will be easier
later to swap an award won on an easier objective than one won on a
harder objective.
- You are driven to do your best at every mission, and win as
many awards as possible That's great, that's what we would do! If
you have difficulty progressing in a particular mission you may
find it helpful to move on to the next mission and try again later,
after you have won more awards.
