==Gameplay==
 
==Gameplay==
{{A}} and {{C}} shoot; with a rather slow rapidfire ability. {{B}} drops a missile which destroys enemies within a radius of your ship (there is a limited stock of missiles).
+
The game is a vertically scrolling shoot-'em-up played from the perspective of elite fighter pilots of the Earth Defense Fleet, known as the Battle Squadron. It can be played by two players simultaneously. The fighters are moved in any direction using the D-Pad. The playfield is wider than the viewable area, so the screen pans when a fighter is at the edge. The fighters fire their main weapons with {{A}} or {{C}} (either of which can be held for continuous fire, though it is slower than pressing the button repeatedly). The main weapon has unlimited ammunition. Weapons can be changed or upgraded by collecting power-ups. Fighters also have a finite number of Nova Smart Bombs, which are deployed with {{B}} and destroy enemies and projectiles within a radius of the ship.
  
==Physical Scans==
+
The fighters are destroyed if they are hit by enemy fire but respawn after a moment if the player has extra lives remaining. The player's weapon is downgraded two levels after losing a ship. The game ends if the player runs out of lives, but it can be continued if the player has credits remaining.

Battle Squadron is a 1990 shoot-'em-up developed by Innerprise Software Inc and published by Electronic Arts exclusively in the US and Europe for the Sega Mega Drive and the Commodore Amiga.

Story

Battle Squadron, Introduction.png

Mayers and Bergin

The alien Barrax Empire has been at war with Earth for centuries to gain control over the Universe. While returning from a mission to destroy all Barrax on Planet Terrainia while gathering information on the empire's fleets, Commander Barry D. Mayers and Commander Lori Bergin were taken hostage by a Barrax nova cruiser, their last transmission mentioning something about being able to turn invisible for a short period of time. The mission is to rescue them.

Gameplay

The game is a vertically scrolling shoot-'em-up played from the perspective of elite fighter pilots of the Earth Defense Fleet, known as the Battle Squadron. It can be played by two players simultaneously. The fighters are moved in any direction using the D-Pad. The playfield is wider than the viewable area, so the screen pans when a fighter is at the edge. The fighters fire their main weapons with A or C (either of which can be held for continuous fire, though it is slower than pressing the button repeatedly). The main weapon has unlimited ammunition. Weapons can be changed or upgraded by collecting power-ups. Fighters also have a finite number of Nova Smart Bombs, which are deployed with B and destroy enemies and projectiles within a radius of the ship.

The fighters are destroyed if they are hit by enemy fire but respawn after a moment if the player has extra lives remaining. The player's weapon is downgraded two levels after losing a ship. The game ends if the player runs out of lives, but it can be continued if the player has credits remaining.

Players can choose the starting lives and credits. Instead of difficulty levels, players can set the maximum number of enemy bullets and the enemy bullet speed.

Planet Terrainia
Unusually for the genre, the game has an overworld with three lower sections that can be entered through craters. The overworld contains enemies, like a normal stage, with the large craters dividing it into segments. Players return to the surface after completing one of the lower stages. The final boss appears at the end of the overworld after clearing all of the other stages. Ignoring the craters makes the overworld loop over from the beginning, so players can stay in the overworld (which has fewer enemies than the lower sections) to obtain power-ups before attempting one of the crater stages.

Versions

The Sega Mega Drive version runs faster and is harder. It has certain layers right in front of the screen, making it harder to see certain objects.
