Based on MacrossRobotech Generation One, this game has you flying your veritech fighter (a transformable mech with 3 forms) around various levels fighting the evil Zentrandi invaders. After each level, big boss ships that pack even bigger fire power. You can choose from three pilots, including Rick Hunter, ace pilot Max Sterling, and his wife Mirria. Each of these pilots has three unique weapons, one for each of their Veritechs(also known as valkyries) three forms. You start out with all 3, but you can get things that power them up (up to 3 levels) by shooting the red enemy ships, and occasionally other things when you see them. You can even cause enemy Zentradi ships to defect to your side and help against their former masters. There are a bunch of different enemies, and each will act differently when it helps you. For instance, one circles around your ship firing, like the options in Gradius (another good game you should check out) while another simply goes kamikaze and rams the other Zentradi into submisson. If you are a Robotech fan, like me, you are going to eat this up. Watch out, though, its a tough game. Good Luck! Veritech squadrons prepare to scramble!!
