| '''Bolse''' was an artificial defense satellite in orbit of the world of [[Venom]]. It was created by [[Andross]] to protect his capital world and as a staging platform for his armies in their invasion of the [[Lylat System]] during the [[Lylat Wars]].
| |
| | |
| It serves as one of the two possible penultimate levels in [[Star Fox 64]]. It's the only stage in the game lacks a boss, (the [[Star Wolf]] team will appear, weren't defeat on [[Fichinia]]) though the satellite's fill in for one

| ==Overview==
| |
| Created for the defense of Venom, Bolse was a massive artificial satellite in orbit of Andross' capital planet. It was protected by a force field that made it immune to remote scanning and allowed it to shrug off captial ship weaponry. The sheer size of the station and the amount of magnetic energy generated by its force field gave Bolse a strong gravitational field. Besides its laser cannons, Bolse also housed missiles and [[Bolse Fighter]]s, along with armies to be used for the invasion of [[Corneria]].
| |
| | |
| The power needed for the operation of Bolse was generated by a bionuclear core. The fusion of biomutated energy and nuclear power gave the station the immense power needed to battle entire fleets of enemy ships. However, this reaction was also incredibly unstable, turning the defense satellite into a ticking time bomb. Six reactor pylons were needed to cool and stabilize the generator, otherwise the core would undergo bionuclear meltdown. (This is belived to have happened to a Bolse prototype, and the fallout supposedly created [[Sector Y]].)
| |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| Bolse came under attack by the [[Star Fox Team]] as they headed the invasion of Venom. [[Fox McCloud]] and his team, aware of Bolse' weakness from stolen design documents, were able to destroy the six generator pylons and expose the core to attack. Not even the arrival of the [[Star Wolf]] team was able to prevent Star Fox from destroying the station and opening the way for Venom's invasion.
