You fly down the trench towards the vent at its end, blasting the baddies for all you are worth and prevent Kill-O-Zap plasma bolts from flying up the tailpipe of your X-wing fighter. Your Blasters only fire forwards (in perspective they appear to head for the centre of the screen) whereas the enemies can fire in any direction, but you have the edge on range. At the end of the trench (approximately 6 minutes flying time) you will encounter the vent. This must be hit dead centre to destroy the core. Avoid to fly into a wall, get hit by enemy fire or fly too high when you will be rapidly picked off by fire from the surface (except at the end of the trench). It is very difficult to blast an alien from directly above, below or to the sides due to their shielding but they eventually succumb to fire from even a slight angle. All you have to do now is remember to avoid crashing into the walls and may the force be with you!
