Just a warning to all of you: There IS a limit on Extra Balls/Specials. Got mine at, even though there are many opportunities:

90,000,000
I AM PSYCHIC!
Multiball Special (light all bug targets)

I think it's set at a maximum of 3 claimed.

2 then. The psychic EB seems a bit tricky to count on as it's only given 1 time in 52 attempts, so about once every 200 shots at recon 1. Thanks Sega, very generous of you.

Here's a cheat for one of the Wizard Goals.

- Play terribly until you reach ball 3. You should have about 10m by this point.
- Advance to Recon Level 6 and shoot the scoop to activare it.
- Usually you'll get Klendathu for this, along with the Wizard Goal completed.

Also guys, if you haven't noticed, it looks like you can play with 6 players... :)

Just watch. This will be one of those random times someone from FarSight reads the posts. Worse still, this will be one of the fastest fixes they ever make. I've got to get my butt in gear and try this before............

Finally made it to Zendarhu. Was pissed though because it came up as an award for recon 6, and I was just about to clear planet pee. Oh well, gives me a reason to keep grinding away. What kind of a name is Klendathu anyways? Reminds me of coneheads. 'You must narfle the Garthok'!!

They can't fix it. this is catch up code in the ROM emulation. :)

Pinballwiz45b - obviously what you're doing works... But I strongly suggest a couple of things. First off, it's a lot easier to loop the ramps if you aim for the left ramp on the fly with the mini flipper. And the ramp skill shot is worth going for. Also, to get easy multipliers, it's worth practicing to hit the mini flipper at the right moment from the eject, to send it up the right orbit. I'm playing on IOS, way different, but I've gotten in the rhythm of... Launching the ball, going for the ramp, hitting the left ramp on the fly, and then trying for the recon combo. I can only get recon combo like 1/50 times. But that's a great way to start a ball. With enough practice, I can finally get the ramp skill shot almost every time. Like I said though, it's probably vastly different on iOS

Is this table ever going to get a sub-forum in the Stern table forum section?

Forum>Pinball Arcade Tables>Stern Tables>?
