    Air Forces

    Storm Owl's stage, Air Forces, opens on a Repliforce airfield before putting X on board a jet for an extended aerial segment — an auto-scrolling gauntlet of gunfire and missile volleys before you reach the boss's arena. Keep moving and don't get boxed into a corner of the screen.

    Side area off the aerial dogfight segmentRide Armor — Eagle

    A side path breaks off from the dogfight to a parked Eagle Ride Armor — its hover flight and missile barrage make the rest of the aerial gauntlet dramatically easier.

    Boss Fight: Storm Owl

    Storm Owl

    Difficulty

    Spends most of the fight swooping through the open airspace arena, which makes a horizontal boomerang throw ideal — Twin Slasher catches him going out and coming back. Defeating him hands you Double Cyclone.

    Attacks
    • Diving swoops across the arena
    • Wind gusts that push you toward the arena's edges
    Strategy
    • Weak against Twin Slasher
    • Throw it as Storm Owl passes overhead for a hit on both the throw and the return
