Succulla tears Thunder Force IV a new one - Stage 4

A sandstorm! Oh, snap!


The beginning of the video mostly involves shooting as many things down as humanly possible, with the Hunter running full blast.
1:07 - ...and now we come to the mini-boss. It looks like a cross between a scorpion tail and a motorcycle helmet. Thanks to the Blade and Hunter Weapons, Succulla is able to make quick work of this enemy.
1:44 - Another 1-Up.
2:07 - The sandstorm stops...and more enemies try to strike before the boss shows up...which should be about...
2:44 - ...here. It takes a little time, but Succulla switches back to the Blade and is able to break through the boss's defenses and get rid of its shields.
3:13 - The boss's shields disperse before coming back, but now they disperse after a couple of direct hits.
3:27 - Succulla blows the bottom half of the boss off with the Blade. Two of the shields home in to try to shoot the ship down, but the Blade makes short work of them.
3:52 - The middle part is now gone. Succulla switches to the Hunter, before switching back to the Blade for the coup de grace.

4:02 - The boss finally goes down and sinks into the endless sand.
