The E-mail Dealy...
Okay, I have two different E-mail addresses that I'd prefer you use for 
different purposes.

If you are e-mailing me about feedback, questions, or anything having to 
do with any FAQ, please send it to Blublublublu1129@cs.com.

If, however, you are e-mailing me on something that does not concern a 
FAQ, e-mail me at Liverboyjoe179@cs.com.

If any e-mail is sent to Blublublublu1129 that does not concern a FAQ, 
it will be deleted/ignored.  Please try to refrain from sending FAQ 
information, etc. to Liverboyjoe179.

Please stop sending me files.  I will not download them unless they are 
someone I know, and by this I mean someone I know -personally- like 
family or best friends.  I have suspected that some files that have been 
sent to me are viruses (with good justification after being persecuted) 
and did not download them.  This also means not to send me FAQs or any 
other material to critique.

UPDATE HISTORY

12/11/01- Decided to create this as well.  However, so as not to be 
cheap, I've decided not to just copy and paste from my walkthrough, but 
actually write some new stuff.

  ---------------------
/  SECTION 1: BIRD MAN  \
-------------------------

Boss of level 1

Description: This is a humanoid, winged creature that's half man and 
half bird.  You'll first see him fly toward the screen, then appear at 
the right side.  

Attack Pattern:

 _____________________ 
|                     |
|                     |
|         1     3 4   |
|  5             2    |
|                     |  
|                   A |
|_____________________|

The first thing he'll do is firebomb you (Position 1).  When you first 
enter the area he's at, he'll drop a bomb that will cause explosions to 
surge across the screen.  You'll have to avoid this somehow.  After 
that, the Birdman will appear again, only this time at the right of the 
screen.

From here, he will shoot projectile at you while going back and forth.  
His initial position when he goes into this phase is 2, while going back 
and forth both lie in positions 4 and 3 respectively.  He also also has 
an attack in which he charges forward (position 5).  

Strategy:

The strategy is the same no matter what phase you're in.  

When he drops the bomb, wait.  After the second explosion, jump to the 
center of the screen to avoid the fire surge.  Now, time to move on to 
main part.  

You must first get to a proper area just behind him and a little below 
him to do some effective attacks (tha is, Position A).  If you're a 
werewolf at this time, then only attack him when he is going from 
Positition 2 to Position 3 or doing a Position 5 attack.  If you're in 
human form, than here's what you do.  When he's coming from Position 3 
and going into Position 2, jump and attack, but only jump once.  Make 
sure you don't get too careless or he'll hit you as he's going from 
Position 2 to Position 4.

A cheap way to take this guy out is to use some Smart Bombs.    

  ----------------------
/  SECTION 2: CHAMELEON  \
--------------------------

Boss of level 2

Description: This is a big lizard creature with what appears to be some 
mechanical technology all over his body.  He as the uncanny ability to 
disappear and reappear.  

Attack Pattern:

 _____________________ 
|                     |
|                     |
|                     |
|         _2_         |
|_6_  _1_     _3_  _4_|  
|   |             |   |
|___|_____5______A|___|

This guy can be a bit annoying at first.  He basically does the same 
thing over and over again.  He'll appear (in order) on the different 
positions numbered above, fire a projectile shot, and disappear.  

Strategy:

The strategy here is quite easy.  Don't use Smart Bombs unless you can 
time them just right.  In wolf form, if you're willing to take some 
risks, then I recommend you attack him (while staying clear of his 
attack) when he's in Positions 4, 5, and 6.  Attack him in Position 4 
while you are in Position A.  After that, turn around and attack at 
Positions 5 and 6.  

If you're in human state, then only attack when he's in Position 4.  He 
cannot hurt you no matter how high you jump in Position A.  There is no 
need to jump and land on the ledge next to him, just jump straight up.  
Do not attack at other positions unless you want to take a risk. 

  -------------------------
/  SECTION 3: SPIDER BROOD  \
-----------------------------

Boss of level 3

Description: At the upper left lies a huge egg sack.  From the egg sack 
comes some spider men creatures.  These creatures will land on either 
side of you.

Attack Pattern:

 _____________________ 
|                     |
|                     |
|_____________________|
|   1            1    |
|                     |  
|                     |
|___2______A_____2____|

First, two of the spiders will come out (crawling along the ceiling; 
Position 1) and land on either side of you (Position 2).   This boss is 
actually the easiest in the game.  Stand in the center (Position A)  If 
you are a wolf, fire shots on either side on you as the creatures land.  
If you're human, run from one side to the other and punch them. 

  -------------------------
/  SECTION 4: GIANT SHRIMP  \
-----------------------------

Description: This one's just a big shrimp creature.  It looks a bit like 
a lobster curled up in a ball.  

Attack Pattern:

 _____________________ 
|                     |
|                     |
|                     |
|                     |
|_2_               _1_|  
|   \B           A/   |
|____\___________/____|

The shrimp starts at Position 1 and rolls along the ground to Position 
2.  As well, he also shoots some projectile that can easily be dodged by 
crouching at either Position A or B.  The projectile will break apart 
into several pieces and descend.

Strategy:

It doesn't matter whether or not you're in human or wolf form, the 
strategy is quite the same.  The only difference is in wolf form you 
want to have Flamer equipped.  The first thing he will do is attack 
before you can get to him and then roll at you.  Crouch at Position B 
(right against the tube, but not on it).  He will then make his way to 
Position 2.  Now's when the attacking comes.  When he pokes his head out 
to attack, attack him then crouch and let him roll back to Position 1.  
That's when you get to Position A and repeat what you did.  From there, 
he will do the same thing over again.  

  -----------------------
/  SECTION 5: KARL DRAXX  \
---------------------------

5A: FORM 1

Description: Just a normal guy with a queue.  

Attack Pattern:

There really is no need for a screen layout here because he is quite 
random on how he does this.  He does everything in a particular order:

Fire a Homer shot
Roll across chamber
Fire Homer shot
Roll across chamber
Drop rocks from the ceiling
Repeat process

Strategy:

If you're in human form, then it's best to attack after he drops the 
rocks because he will wait for a brief period.  In wolf form, get around 
the homer, then fire shots at him.  In either form, you'll have to get 
around the stones falling from the ceiling.  They all fall in the same 
places each time, so wait in relatively the same are each time.

5B: FORM 2

Description: He now becomes a big, bull-like creature.

Attack Pattern:
 _____________________
|                     |
|                     |
|                     |
|                     |
|         $         __|  
|                  |  |
|________________1A|__|

He will disappear and reappear right near you and attack.  He will also 
shoot some projectile that will disperse to the same areas each time he 
uses them.  They will then become bolts that will strom downward.

Strategy:

Your father will be at Position $ and Position A is where you will 
stand. Face toward Position $.  Draxx will appear at Position 1.  When 
he appears and attacks, jump over his attack and begin lacing into him.     
If you're a human, then run around and only attack when he appears in 
teleportation mode.  Make sure you do good enough to get around his 
attack.
