Tim:

I'm playing it on a PS2 - original Taito ROM, so all the tricks and the likes work as they should. What I do is create a "5 x 1" setup, as described in the guide.

By the time they get down to the "safe" row, I'm waiting in the safe window area created between the 5 and the 1. They drop down, and I race along under them, safe from their missile fire - and shoot them when travelling right to left, back to the safe zone.

I can never keep up with the last invader though. He always gets to the bottom before I can shoot him. Incidently, you can play the original using the MAME emulator on a PC. That's how I became hooked!
