10. MISSION 2-2: GET YOURSELF A CONVOY
======================================================================
The Military is transporting parts to assemble a HULKBUSTER. Yes, it's
some sort of robots that are deal you a lot of pain. You won't want
that happening, do you? You must destroy all the convoy trucks before
they reach the assembly line. I'll recommend buying Missile Puncback 
and Air Dash if you haven't already done so.

NOTE: In chase missions like this, a silver bar with a red timer will 
appear on the bottom left of the screen. The timer will move from left 
to right. You must destroy the trucks before the timer reaches the
right.

a. Convoy A
~~~~~~~~~~~~
This has only one truck, but it's already heavily guarded by tanks,
missile launcers, air troops and what have you. You've time on your
hands though, so don't panic. From where you begin, you should see at
least three power-up pick-ups. Pick them all up to max your power.
Next, find a small vehicle and create steel fists out of it. The red
moving icon on your map is the location of the truck. Follow it.

Try to avoid detection by the air troops by now taking the most direct
route. Use the sides of the cliffs, or better still, run up to the
cliff on the left and use it as cover. As you approach the truck, 
somehow you'll still get spotted and the enemies will start to attack
you in full force, but at least they didn't start attacking you before
you even catch up with the truck.

Charge jump a lot of chase the truck and avoid the attacks. If you've
Air Dash, after you charge jump, when you're about to land, press R1 
to push yourself slightly further. Ideally, you should jump in front 
of the truck and start punching it with your steel fists till it
explodes. You can destroy the truck without steel fists, but they 
bring more damage, so I'd recommend it. If missiles are launched at
you, use missile punchback to deflect them back to the offenders, or
use L1 to target a plane and direct the projectile to deal with these
bastards.

NOTE: If you've unlocked jump markers in the mountains as I suggested
in the earlier mission, you can even try to approach one of them 
while chasing the truck, and jump to RESTRICTED AREA 102 to wait for
the truck to arrive, then send it to its maker!

Now, you must escape from the area. As you run back to the Last
Chance Cafe, which is where you begin this mission, you should notice
a small path leading up to a cliff with plenty of power-ups. Use them
to heal and approach the nearest jump marker and jump back to Last
Chance Cafe. 

NOTE: Use jump markers to escape from enemies swarming all over you.

b. Convoy B

Next up, Convoy B with 2 trucks. This is considerably trickier, 
because the trucks will be using the small paths on the left cliff
to proceed instead of the ground. This means that you will need to 
attack them on this narrow path, while trying to avoid the enemies'
attacks. You've not much room to play with, so be very careful.

Grab some power-ups if you need. Don't bother with the steel fists if
you don't want to, and start chasing the 2 trucks like mad. I find
charge jumping and air dashing the fastest way to reach them. As you
approach them, jump in front of the front truck and start delivering
the pain. It's advisable to attack the front truck first since the 
trucks and tanks are all travelling in a linear fashion on a narrow
path. If you pile on the damage on the front truck, the other truck
following behind it can't go elsewhere, and will in turn block the
path of the tanks behind the trucks. After you destroy the front one,
immediately attack the other till it explodes. Then, as usual, run to
the nearest jump marker and return to Last Chance Cafe.

c. Convoy C
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two convoys destroyed, and Blonsky's lackeys are getting fed up, and
they will send the ELITE TROOPS after you. These are human-controlled
mechs that are tough to beat, but this also happens to be the easiest
to destroy of the 3 convoys because you don't really need to chase
after the trucks. 

Unlike the first two convoys, this convoy will not travel through
the mountains. Instead, they will take the civilian path, which is to
the right of where you begin. Simply go straight towards that area
and with luck, you will find the 2 trucks right there for you to
punch. Before the mechs are can attack you, you should've already
destroy the trucks.

This is quite a tough mission if you're not very good in avoiding
attacks. Still, here are some tips to ease the situation:

1. Charge jump and air dash a lot when chasing the trucks.
2. Use missile punchback to deflect missiles directed at you to give
your enemies a taste of their own medicine.
3. Stealth - try to avoid detection for as long as possible.
4. Grab power-ups as and when available.
5. Use jump markers to escape from swarms of enemies.

(I think) you will unlock another Blonsky file after you beat this
mission. I'm not entirely sure because when I played this part, it 
was into the wee hours of the morning and I was getting sleepy, and
didn't manage to write down as much as I like...
