More importantly, where would we be with a few less Redshirts? Probably where we are right now. The purpose of this guide is to inform you of every possible way you can sacrifice your willing Security Officer. Or, as most Star Trek fans refer to them as, Redshirts. So sit back, relax, and laugh as your loyal Redshirt gives his life for your entertainment. Note: A * indicates that your entire party dies along with the Redshirt. A + indicates that the rest of the party could die if something isn't done about the situation. __________ Mission 1: DEMON WORLD Death 1: Boulder Location: Inside the cave, in front of the door How: When you clear the rocks blocking the door, shoot the rocks in the upper right first. A boulder will become dislodged from the pile and roll straight at Kirk. Your Redshirt will dive and push Kirk out of harm's way, then will be crushed by the oncoming boulder. How to Avoid: Shoot the boulder on the upper left of the pile first. --- Death 2: Shock Location: Inside cave, after rocks have been cleared How: Repeatedly use your Redshirt on the closed panel, above the injured miner. Eventually, he will be hit with a shock so severe he will be vaporized. How to Avoid: Don't use your Redshirt on the panel. --- Death 3: Vaporization* Location: Inside the Nauian sleeping chamber How: After the Nauian appears, use your phaser on him twice. The Nauian will become enraged and vaporize the entire landing party. How to Avoid: Don't use your phaser on the Nauian. __________ Mission 2: HIJACKED Death 1: Vaporization+ Location: Inside the Masada's brig How: Don't kill the Elasi pirates in time. Sometimes, your guard is only stunned, other times, he's killed. The Elasi will continue firing at your party until they are both killed. How to Avoid: Kill/Stun the Elasi before they can get a shot off. --- Death 2: Vaporization+ Location: On the bridge of the Masada How: Don't kill/stun the guards fast enough or don't talk to Cereth in time. The Elasi will continue firing at your party until they are all dead or you have gotten Cereth to surrender. How to Avoid: Kill/stun the guards or make Cereth surrender. __________ Mission 3: LOVE'S LABOR JEOPARDIZED Death 1: Vaporization Location: Center room on the ARK7. (Room with Virus culture freezing unit) How: Use your Redshirt on the ladder leading down to the lower decks before knocking out the Romulans. How to Avoid: Don't use your Redshirt on the ladder or knock out all the Romulans first. __________ Mission 4: ANOTHER FINE MESS [NO KNOWN DEATHS] __________ Mission 5: FEATHERED SERPENT Death 1: Eaten Alive Location: The river with the monster in it How: Use your Redshirt on the log going across the river. He will make it halfway, and then he will be dragged underwater by the creature and become dinner. How to Avoid: Throw the plant leaf in the water. --- Death 2: Radiation* Location: The tunnel on the Klingon world, after making it past the first room and not using the alternate code on the door. How: Shoot the red ball with your phaser on the kill setting. The ball will multiply, and the landing party will die of extreme radiation exposure. How to Avoid: Shoot the ball with your phaser on stun, then kill. --- Death 3: Vaporization+ Location: Third part of the tunnel. How: Don't shoot the Klingon when he appears. He will continue firing until he is killed. How to Avoid: Kill the Klingon the second he starts to appear. --- Death 4: Bomb* Location: Third room of the tunnel How: Attempt to exit the tunnel. A bomb will go off, killing the entire landing party. How to Avoid: Beam up instead. __________ Mission 6: THAT OLD DEVIL MOON [NO KNOWN DEATHS] __________ Mission 7: VENGEANCE [NO KNOWN DEATHS] (But you do see an entire Starship full of dead people)
