Star Wars (Home Edition)

• Super Skill Shot: Classic Stern skill shot by holding left button while plunging, but soft plunge, get on flippers and shoot right ramp. You only need to hold the button on the plunge, once you do it, it remembers so if you did it too light, let go of button and keep trying. Super skill 50k.
• Jedi Skill Shot: Don't touch the flippers after plunge, if you plunge the ball in the correct lane, you get 35k as opposed to 10k if you lane switch. I don't bother with super skill, it's only worth 50k, getting the Jedi Skill is easier and more consistant.
• Always tag a Rebel before completing FORCE or you lose that freebe
• A good strategy is tag a rebel right away, then work on FORCE, and keep geting it till all rebels are lit, then go to town!!!
• Rebels: Luke, Leia, Han. R2 is sort of different but is a rebel
• Leia is the best to get first, the spinner u turn
• Spell FORCE to light the next Rebel, continue to do this for all 3 rebels
• The R2 lock is a lane you get the ball in and you have to lock it and hit it out next ball, you must do an R2D2 Multiball to complete R2 Rebel out
• Get all rebels closed out and it stops play and starts Darth/OB1 dual (hit all rebels 4 times to complete mode). Once the mode is completed, pin once again kills flippers and you start next level (Level 2)
• Having problems hitting the R2 lock to get into the Darth/OB1 battle? That's ok, if you spell FORCE again and hit a few shots it will allow you into that battle.
• BretTip: Balls coming down from the rebels can be Alley-Ooped with a dead flip one flipper, then a throw flip the next, you can make a lot of Han and Luke/Leia shots using this method, this Technique is great for combos which are good points
• Hitting the right ramp when it's blinking on the right mode starts either a hurry up or Imperial multiball
• Hitting all the drops a bank and/or getting up the ramp approx 3-5 times will start Deathstar Multiball, play it out till your last ball, then game goes dark and you must shoot the ramp to kill the deathstar, easy right flipper shot, sometimes you can back shot left flipper
• Extra Ball: Getting 2 rebels lights extra ball which is just above the R2 lock, it's tricky but you can shoot the edge of it, there are other extra balls but haven't figured them out, when it stays lit, GET IT. Light extra ball is one of Yoda's
• Add a Ball is the extra ball target when lit blue, you want to hit this every R2 multiball for sure
• When battling Darth Vader, if you get an R2D2 ball locked, get it out of there, you need all the fire power you can get
• Level 2 = After the Rebels all escape, you start level 2, but in this round, scoring rebels is more complex. I think you have to hit a rebel to light it, then hit it again to advance, otherwise the light goes dim (the arrows) and you cannot advance until you light it again. It might also have to do with Combos, I'm not sure 100%.
