Only use super skill shot to hit the center bank. If the bank is already down when launching just do a regular skill shot.
If game does not have Super-Bands on flippers, you can do "hop-over" after Lock: raise left flipper, nudge to feed right, re-shoot Lock.
In Total Annihalation shoot for orbits or lobster/cow ramps to increase jackpot, jackpot is collected at the inner left ramp (lock ramp)
Always open the forcefield before starting Multiball, because you can't during Multiball. Easy to rack up saucer damage during Multiball.
In multiball, jackpot doesn't register for the lock shot
Shoot each ramp and orbit 3 times to start Total Annihilation 4-ball multiball where all shots are worth big points.
Bring down the visor before starting a multiball. You can then use your multiball to destroy the saucer safely.
Shoot the lane to the left of the saucer to light locks for multiball. More shots are required to light locks for subsequent multiballs.
Shot all 4 main shots without shooting the visor to start Total Annihilation AND get a 1 billion point hurry up collect. Don't super skill.
Start 3 lock (regular) multiball during Martian Attack, before hitting/Martian Bombing the 4th martian, to stack it with Martian Multiball.
Multiball: complete all five lit jackpots, which lights roving super jackpot. Last chance SJ possible if one ball left with SJ still lit.
Hold left flipper button while launching ball. Shoot any shot within a few seconds to complete that lane or start Saucer Attack Wave.
Super Skill Shot can be used to spot all 3 lamps on one of the 4 major shots you need for Total Annihilation, by making that shot.
During video mode, the launch button works as a smart bomb once. Hit it to destroy all saucers on screen.
Use the flashing Launch button during Martian Attack to use a Martian Bomb and take out a martian. Useful to start MB if ball is going out.
Shooting a second ball into a saucer right after you destroy it, so the target wall traps it lets you one-shot the next as a "Dirty Pool"
Hit the ball launch button when a cow appears in the Tractor Beam and Big-o-beam. You'll hear a moo if successful. Video mode = Cow Attack.
