Strategy

With the beginning of the chapter 25 of the Stories of Legends, you should (or must, if your units are weak) have the treasures Aqua Crystal and Plasma Crystal from the Into the Future Chapters, as alien units will start to appear as a threat.

This can be one of the easier later SoL levels with a good strategy.

First, stall the first Shibaliens, then build up a stack of attackers.

Doge will spawn, along with many more Shibaliens. While the Doge has an enormous strength magnification, it still isn't high enough to be consider him much of a threat. Just use a couple of Crazed UFOs, and he should die in seconds.

The Shibaliens will keep spawning, so build up more Crazed UFO, and other area attackers.

After enough damage has been dealt to the base, Doge Dark will spawn. It does huge damage, but has single target attack and low health. Just use your meatshields, and Crazed UFOs. The Doge Dark will die quickly.

After more damage has been dealt to the base, Gabriel will spawn. It has high damage with area attack, but still not much health. It shouldn't survive long enough to deal any sufficient damage.

After enough damage has been dealt to the base, Metal Doge will spawn. Try and kill it easy, as its damage of 16,000 could wipe out all your cat units with ease.

Luckily, it only has 240 health. A critical hit from any cat should kill it in one hit. Unless you can't get a crit, this really isn't very hard.

Just wait while your units destroy the base.

Cheese Strategy

If you can get the second wave of Shibaliens just behind hitting range at the base then you can destroy the base without killing them which prevents the succeeding bosses from spawning, making you win the level.

Trivia

• It seems that this level is a revamped version of Star Ocean. However, this level includes the appearance of all the Doge variants and each with a much higher and intense strength magnification.

• This stage has the (currently) strongest Doge Darks in the game, even stronger than the ones in Star Ocean (for 1 star, that is)
• This is the first Stories of Legend stage where an Alien enemy appears
