The Hunt For The Battlesnail
So in the campaign, one of these guys is hidden in each mission.



Find all of them in a single playthrough and you'll get a slightly extended ending scene!   :)

NOTE: If you find one of these, scan it! If you do that successfully but then fail the mission, you will need to find that snail again unless you reached a checkpoint after you found it.

Use this thread to assist others with the hunt. Eventually I'll post a guide, but I want to give players a chance to search on their own first!

  • This is fine.
Re: The Hunt For The Battlesnail
I found the snail in To Steal and March on twice.

But I have no clue where I found it.

If you press Alt-5 in a mission, you can toggle a hint to the snail's location on and off.

Re: The Hunt For The Battlesnail
I believe I saw a spoon reference in a random crate on one of the first missions. Nothing about a snail IIRC.

I'll keep my eyes peeled. Hard to do, seeying how I struggle with them all.
I guess being away from FS for quite a while got me seriously rusty on the dogfighting department.

Re: The Hunt For The Battlesnail
Yay, found in Playing Pirate.

Are snails present all time in missions or just show up when some event occurs?

Re: The Hunt For The Battlesnail
Some require you to save a particular ship, others are just present throughout.

Found two!
Spoiler:
Mission 1 - I targeted the guy when I was hitting U key all the time about halfway through the mission. I had to deviate from my patrol path about half of a kilometer to catch him though.
Mission 2 - Take a peek "under" the platform.
Mission 3 - Didn't find him, but saw it in the mission logs - arriving about 6 minutes into the mission.
How do you kill a hydra?

You starve it to death.
