The Mission
*In the year 1991, a powerful oil-rich dictator in the Middle-East has
waged war on the world. You must navigate a super-modified Nuclear
Apache Helicopter, D-FORCE, through six countries and infiltrate the enemies
headquarters. If the ol' apple pie and baseball are to remain as symbols of our
country, you'd better get on the ball.
*As well as constant enemy attacks, this warped leader has chemical
biologists developing prehistoric beasts to tear your chopper out of the
sky. And we're not talk'n about your everyday dinosaurs either; there are
helicopter eating creatures that could bring about your true test of non-stop,
creative thinking.
*'Course you'll have the latest weapons at your side. And the farther you go,
the more you'll get a chance to use them. If you are able to conquer the
seemingly endless enemies, watch out for the...we're losing you...your radio's
breaking up...good luck, you're on your own!
*Your chopper blades are spinning - there's no turning back! Never fear, you're
in command of the ultimate weapon, D-FORCE!

The Tips

fire sidewinder missiles.
2) In Level 2, shoot Dorf the boss in the face, but watch out for his tail!
3) Start D-Force with nine lives by adjusting the players area in the Option
Mode. You will need extra help.
4) In Level 3, when you fight the Plasma Tanks, look for a safe spot on the
lower right hand side of the screen.
5) To beat Cantor 3 in 1, you should follow the path of Cantor's pieces as
they move, and keep shooting.
