When you arrive in a sector that an enemy squadron occupies, you immediately enter Combat Mode. In order to clear the sector, you must defeat all 10 of the enemies' craft. Despite the differences between the various ships, there are some features common to all of them. | When you arrive in a sector that an enemy squadron occupies, you immediately enter Combat Mode.

* '''The enemy will only shoot at you when they are directly in front of you.''' As unrealistic as it might seem, enemies will never fire at your ship if they are above, below, in back of, or to either side of you. They must be, to some degree, in front of you before they will fire. This way, you never have to dodge an enemy bullet that you never saw coming. | * '''The enemy will only shoot at you when they are directly in front of you.'''
