3: Battle mode translation.
translation of battle menu..
1= Attack: normal attack

2= magic(FP): Each character has different attacks and healing
abilities etc these use FP which is magic.(you get this by killing
enemies or using potions) translations may follow.

3= Use item: use magic like fire or heal (translations soon)

4= Move Character: lets you move either forward or backward, this
helps you to get all characters into a line to use Linear's heal
to full effect(also to escape enemies such as boss ones suction attack)

5= Increase defence (and use the turn)

6= Later on into the game you also have'escape' which lets you run
away from a fight.

note. the green numbers that appear after a fight are Experience points and when accumilated will
make your character stronger with more enegy (look at each character to see their levels)
You also get Talent Points which let you learn new moves(in yellow numbers after killing an enemy)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4:Brief character profiles.
the characters in the game are all very balanced and you dont really lose out by choosing any
of them Mag and Linear are your characters that you have to be. whereas the others can be chosen.
(Stupid names or what?)

Mag Launcher: He is the main character of the game and one of the strongest.
he is equipped with a gigantic robot hand. his normal attack is
strong but can miss certain enemies frequently because they are
close combat. his magic is based on attacks. He has a huge hammer for
one of his final special attacks.

Linear Cannon: She is the healer of the game with alot of healing magic.
she also has an ocarina dissimilar to Links in zelda. With this
she can cast many spells on enemies such as barriers etc.
Her attacks are the weakest (HP too) and miss due to close combat
although her healing abilities are immense.

Grey Nade: The butler is one of the extra characters and is
an all rounder.He is Mags family butler and he has a long range
attack of a rifle which doesn't miss as much. His power is good and
has some powerful magic attacks.

Chain Gun the jetpack boy: He looks quite jealous of Linears attachment
to Mag. He is a fairly strong character, although his attacks are
not the strongest, he makes up for it with his health and wide range
of spells which can hit all enemies in one go.

Pepper Spray: She is very powerful with a long range attack that hits its mark
She is a good character to keep on you team because of the damage she
does and also her special attacks can hit alot of enemies and cause
unnatural statuses to them. A good character. she also has the most powerful
attack which is one of her final special attacks (it uses all FP but inflicts
over 9999 damage!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5: Item translation.
Any item with HP 300/100/500 gives you that much HP.

Any HP item with a japanese three in front [looks like (=)] gives you HP
for all three characters (extra special)

Any item with (HP 25%) or any other numbers usually revives a character

Itmes with FP in them usually give the character FP
There is also two map items, they map the floor of the dungeon.

The bolt attack has three symbols 1st looks like a shrimp second looks like
a backward square root with an x under it third looks like an I with a dash
through it. Causes 300 damage to the right enemies.

Fire attack is three or four symbols looks like ( '^''^'38 ) causes 300
damage (to the right enemies) '^'

There is ice as well but you'd better find it yourself cus it's too hard to
symbolize

6: Main walkthrough

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
You start off in a battle with two enemies. just attack them
You will then meet chain the jetpack boy.
Go to the society in the village and talk to the girl. choose the first option to show you a
map of what dungeon to travel to next.
Now go back to your house and get Grey the butler. Choose the second option and he is a
member of your party.(i dont know wether or not you can get chain yet but he's in the bus)
now go to your runway and get in the plain to the first dungeon.

DUNGEON 1: In the dungeons you can get items from chests and fight enemies to increase you
exp. Your main goal is to find the next floor. When you reach this place you can then save
your game (the second option) or go to the next floor (the first option)
the red dots on the radar show your enemies and the white show item boxes or warps.
IF YOU SEE LITTLE SQUARE DENTS ON THE FLOOR THEN THEY ARE RANDOM THINGS SUCH AS HP UPS
OR TRAPS BY EITHER ENEMIES OR FLAMES. YOU CAN ALSO FIND CONFUSION GAS WHICH MESSES UP YOU
CONTROLS. IF YOURE FEELING HARD THEN ITS WORTH THE RISK BUT I'D AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE!
Note. you can get a map item which lets you see what the block is. if you use it then you
know what the trap is. it also show the enemis and boxes that are available on the floor.

When you get to floor 10 you should be on at least level 10 to kill the boss.
you have the choice to save (via the blue green swirly pad)
you can also warp go to the society via the yellow illuminated circle to replenish health and
sell special items to the bloke on the opposite counter to the woman.
this money will help you to buy the big weapon or to buy power ups from the shop.
(you can also sell unuseful items at the shop and buy HP ups etc.)
Afterwards head back to the runway (near you house) and use the map screen to choose which
floor to travel to.
note. this is only when you warp to society.

Boss 1: the mean green momma: this bitch'll suck you towards her and spit you out for some
serious damage! so always try to move back a step when she pulls you towards her.
wipp her ass with you attack and magic that you have and she will be gone.

After killing the boss you should find yourself in the mansion with your butler. After the
long sequence go back to society and ask the woman for your next mission.
you can now get rid of the Grey and use either Mag or Chain by selecting the second option
for each, they are in the bus or the Cafe.

Now you should go back to the plane and you will find yourself on a dock with a huge boat.
go into it via the lift and make you way up to the typical japanese colonel.
after the long sequence you should get in your plain and go to dungeon 2

DUNGEON 2: This dungeon took me some time but get your characters to level 26 and you should
get through it. There are 14 floors and the last two don't have enemies. The boss is a metal
robot thing with cogs, he has three attacks: 1 electric shock (takes two goes) 1 drill and
a smoke screen which I believe is darkness. You need to be on level 26 to take the punishment
of the electric charge you should get around 331 EXP for killing him.

Afterwards you'll find yourself in society. You will recieve loads of money (by selling goods)
then go home and talk to Grey. After the long sequence go back to society to choose the
next mission then get which ever extra character you want and go to your plane.

DUNGEON 3: This dungeon is over lava and instead of going up floors, you go down.
the enemies here are not too difficult and you'll find that the traps are sometimes hidden
in the strange blocks on the floor. After about 7 floors the scenery changes and you'll
be in a room with tonnes of enemies. (don't worry, just use the sneak attack method and
you'll be okay!) There are approximately 15 floors, each getting more difficult.

Boss 1: Be sure to be on at least level 36 to stand a chance ( I did it
on level 36 and had one character left) The boss is a giant moth with tonnes of energy so
be prepared for a long fight. it has two attacks, one hits all for about 1000 HP and another
hits one person for about 800 HP (a whirwind) after your fight. you'll get lots of money
off the big weapon and remember to sell your special items to the man.

Afterwards make your way back to your house and talk to Grey. You should then go to society
and select the next level. choose your character and then go to your plane.

DUNGEON 4: This dungeon has alot of new enemies but it is still fairly easy. there are 21
floors. when you get to the boss you have to be around level 50 but its quite easy to get
there because of all the strong enemies you fight. the boss is a giant gold robot who has
two attacks. a ice cube that can freeze enemies and a lock on attck that hits all characters
for around 1500 so be prepared to heal! after he is dead (which isnt that hard if you have
Mags final attacks) go back to your house.

Oh No! Grey is being held at gunpoint by the General. he wants Linear.
Afterwards make your way to your plane and fight a tank (which is easy to beat)
You'll then get a cool FMV and then you'll be on the generals ship. I chose Pepper, chain
and Mag (because Linear has been captured)
You will be presented by four options when you get out of your plane, they are:

Heal All
Select Characters
Go!
Store Items

Afterwards make your way to the end of the ship, fight as many enemies as possible.
(you'll have to solve a little puzzle on a lift, it's DOWN!)
when you get to the end you'll be facing the general.
You need to be on at least level 82 to kill the boss but keep healing with Mag and attacking
with Pepper's final attack and he should be down soon.
Afterwards he'll run away, take this time to go back and save and have about 200 fights.
You'll need to be on about level 92 to stand a chance against the next boss.
When youre done messing around (p.s the best place to fight is just after the tank room, in a
door in the corridor, just keep going in and out of the room to have unlimited fights.)
Now time to face the final boss, mecha general. His attacks are very powerful so be prepared
to heal every go with Mag. Use Peppers final FP attack and try to heal her FP with potions
etc. The boss has around 30,000 HP so you'll need to use Peppers attack three times!

When he is defeated settle down for the ending of the game.

(oh cheerist! theres more!!!!)

After the ending save your game and now you'll come across another dungeon!
Go to society and pick the place. then choose Pepper! and get in your plane.
I spent bloody hours on that boss and then theres more! oh god.
This game is only a special game where you can fight and power up etc. to your hearts
content. Once you kill the lizard boss (after 26-27 floors), you'll arrive back at the
society but instead of a new level you now have a level select to choose which dungeons
from your the past you wish to play.
Congratulations on completing one of the best dreamcast games around!
note.. if anyone knows any better please inform me!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7: Extras.
In the dungeons you'll find alot of special items that can be sold to the guy
at society. this can earn you mega bucks to buy power ups or the Big weapon
upgrade.

When you get to the next floor in a dungeon you have the option to save or to
carry on.

Get Pepper and get one of her final attacks with FP 0 in it, its solid!!!

In dungeons white dots are boxes or warps. Red dots are enemies, green are traps.

The swirly yellow pads in dungeons are warps. They take you to society where you
can sell special items and replenish health (also go to the shop to sell unwanted
items) Then go back to you plane where you can choose which dungeon floor to go
back to (note: sometimes it puts you back a few floors).

You can sell useless items at the shop in the village. but before you do
equip your new weapons + armour to your characters because you don't want
to sell them by accident!

Square marks on dungeon floors are either traps or bonuses. Don't bother
because the traps are suprise attacks and you'll probably die!
keep yourself to the walls and you'll be safe from them.

You always want to have some form of magic attack equipped to you characters.
Mag's Gaun dahhh attack is good and peppers FP 0 attacks are superb
(They are shown as 'Lvl 1')
Once you have magic attacks on the characters then equip power ups
(shown as +30..etc) because some enemies dodge your normal attacks rendering
your character useless so you need magic just in case.

Near to the end of the game Mag recieves a healing magic, equip it and you'll
never need Linear again!!

!When you see an enemy inside the dungeons always try to hit them from behind.
!this way you'll get a suprise attack and get 2x the amount of turns and the
!enemies will be more vunerable.
!DO NOT LET ENEMIES HIT YOU FROM BEHIND! OTHERWISE THEY GET THE SUPRISE ATTACK!

The shop next door to the item shop sells upgrades, it sells magic that's strong!
They also let you add more magic slots to your characters, which is very good.
You will want to upgrade your attacks for the final boss.
When going up levels on magic you will need to pay more for the next upgrade but
is worth it because it increases your attack and also uses less magic!!!
Note: Linear cannot be upgraded.

The higher the level you're on, the more magic you recieve back from attacking
enemies, so always try to save your FP items for the bosses and just attack when
low on magic.

If you ever use magic and its a shield or poison etc, ignore it because you don't
need it to complete the game, i completed it without using them.

If you ever fill up on items in a dungeon remember to either drop useless items
or find a warp to sell them at the shop and society.

If you translate the items you'll find that some of your magic add-ons
correspond (namewise) to them. this means that this type of magic equipped
is has a special effect (such as fire) can be good against ice enemies!

Once you complete the game there is another weapon upgrade to buy from society
but it'll cost ya!
More as it comes...
