==='''Battle in [[Area 6]]'''=== | |||
In the closing moments of the war, the Star Fox team made a brazen attempt to force their way through Area 6 to attack Venom. Despite throwing everything at the Star Fox team, Venomian forces were unable to stop them. In a last bid to stop Star Fox they deployed the [[Gorgon]], hoping it would destroy them for good. But not even the mighty battle station could stop the mercenaries, and as it exploded into tiny fragments Fox and his team powered through the debris field and entered Venom's atmosphere. | |||

Reports indicated large amounts of pollution was being spread by Andross on this planet completely covered in water. The Star Fox team was sent to investigate using a machine built by Slippy called the Blue Marine. With it, Fox was able to track down and eliminate a poweful creature known as the [[Bacoon]], the being responsible for causing the planet to be engulfed in water. After doing so, the world became free of its malicious influence. | Reports indicated large amounts of pollution was being spread by Andross on this planet completely covered in water.

==='''Battle on [[Bolse]]'''=== | |||
Bolse came under attack by the Star Fox team as they headed the invasion of Venom. Fox McCloud and his team, aware of Bolse's 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. | |||

The Star Fox team attempted to liberate Macbeth and strike a crippling blow to the Venomian war industry. Fox, piloting the [[Landmaster]], confronted a supply train protected by the biomechanical construct [[Mechbeth]]. Rather than destroying the machine itself, he was able to send the train it was attached to off-course towards the main supply depot. Unable to slow itself in time, the train crashed at high speeds into the depot, setting off stores of weapons and fuel containers in a dazzling explosion. With the loss of its main production and fueling facilities, Venom was now open to direct attack by the Star Fox team. | The Star Fox team attempted to liberate Macbeth and strike a crippling blow to the Venomian war industry.

General Pepper sent the Star Fox team to explore this star when a number of Venomian scout ships were detected approaching and leaving. What they discovered were biological monsters, the result of Andross's genetic experimentation, that not only lived but thrived in the extremely hot environment. | |||
The team battled through this hellish environment, receiving help from Bill. Eventually they were forced to confront [[Vulcain]], the most deadly of Andross's star-spawn bio-weapons. Dodging its attacks, Star Fox was able to destroy the beast and put an end to Andross's biological terror. | |||

It was while attempting to navigate through these debris fields that the Star Fox team came under attack by Andross. The ambush was sprung by the latest [[Invader III Fighters]] escorting a half-dozen [[Copperhead missile]]s. Unable to protect itself, the [[Great Fox]] launched its fighters in a desperate bid to prevent the missiles from impacting and causing extensive damage. The Star Fox team, assisted by Katt, succeeded in driving off the attackers and destroying all six missiles before they could damage the Great Fox. | It was while attempting to navigate through these debris fields that the Star Fox team came under attack by Andross.

Scout forces sent by Andross investigated the planet and discovered Goras. The mad scientist, through bio-mechanical experimentation, altered the creature and turned it into a fearsome warrior. The Star Fox team battled through Venomian forces in search for Slippy, who had crash-landed on the planet and was captured by Goras. The team succeeded in rescuing Slippy and destroying Goras, ending the creature's existence. | |||
==='''Battle in [[Venom]]'''=== | |||
Battling through the planet's defenses, the Star Fox team led the invasion of Venom to the very doorstep of Andross' palace, but were immediately confronted by the Star Wolf team. Star Wolf piloted new [[Wolfen II]] starfighters, which were technically superior to the Arwing. However, superior piloting skills won the day, and Fox plunged deep into the heart of the planet to confront his father's killer. | |||
In a titanic battle, Fox killed Andross, but with his dying breath the mad scientist unleashed a fiery nuclear explosion to consume them both. In that moment, Fox's father James suddenly appeared and showed Fox the path out of the base and certain destruction. As Fox made his escape, James disappeared, leaving a victorious son to wonder if he had really seen his father. | |||

Rather than taking its defenses head-on, the Star Fox team attempted to sneak in quietly. A series of radar buoys protected the main supply areas, scanning the heavens with powerful floodlamps, and formed an extensive early warning network. The team was able to destroy the bouys, with some surprise assistence from [[Katt Monroe]], before they could alert the system and proceed to lay waste to the infrastructure. | |||
In the final moments of the attack, Fox confronted the [[Sarumarine]], which was the source of the planet-wide pollution. In a hard-fought battle Fox destroyed the poisonous submarine and put an end to the origin of the toxic waste. | |||

Although Andross was destroyed, his followers still stayed loyal to his campaign in taking over the Lylat system. They slowly disappeared in the following years until Andrew Oikonny, who left the Star Wolf team soon after the war, led a rebellion against the Cornerian Army with the remaining forces of the Venomian Army. Enter the Star Fox team, who helped tear down the rebels and bring Oikonny to justice. The crazed ape led them into the planet of [[Fortuna]], where he revealed an Andross-like machine in a last line of defence against Star Fox. His movement was unsuccessful, however, as the invasion of the aparoids became a larger threat, and destroyed Andrew's operation. | Although Andross was destroyed, his followers still stayed loyal to his campaign in taking over the Lylat system.
