I have just completed beginner mode in arctic fox. I'd like to convey

same.

*	I wasted three missiles on one rocket launcher that kept firing
	its missiles into my missiles. By the third try I was sufficiently
	out of phase with the rocket launcher that my shot got through.

Notes:	I think I succesfully side steped the heaviest emplacements hence
	few enemy killed but mission (main fort destroyed by two missles to
	the dome) completed.

Hints:	ArcticFox's weapons have better range. Use this to your advantage.

	Gun Sight will switch to cross hairs if it thinks something can be
	hit even if your cant see what it is.

	Running away while facing the enemy (eg: rolling backwards) is an
	excelent way to use the ArcticFox's better range and speed. The
	enemy is running into your shells but you are running away from
	theirs. (isn't this the kaufman maneuver from professional level
	start trek simulations?).

Emphasis:	get arctic fox - it is playable and enjoyable.
