The Ice Queen is the twenty-fourth mission in Metal Slug: 2nd Mission. Only Red Eye can access this stage. One prisoner exists in this mission.
Mission Synopsis[]
Red Eye arrives to the island and is told the Rebel base is just across Mt. Snow. The first part is using the elevators to climb up the mountains. The second part revolves driving through slippery ice and avoiding spike traps. While the first half is unique, the second half has the same layout as Mission 23 (The Tundra King) except with Red Eye traveling from right to left.
Red Eye can only access the first half if she arrives from Mission 22 (One Fell Stroke). Either way, she always starts the mission boarding the Metal Slug Proto 2.
Rumi Aikawa, the lone prisoner in this mission, is hidden in a hut at the first half of the mission. Getting to this hut requires doing a Metal Slug Attack on the very right edge of a platform where a GO sign that is pointing left is at (see image). Rumi gives the E-Armor to Red Eye.
The fight with the Tani Oh has two phases. First phase has the Tani Oh tossing range sensitive land mines onto the ground and occasionally shooting a rocket in three directions (center, diagonally left, and diagonally right). The second phase has the Rebels coming in from both sides and tossing grenades. The tank itself replaces its weapons with a laser that shoots upward, which is dragged as the Tani Oh moves. The Rebels are able to receive friendly fire from the laser and sometimes drops a gas tank as they are killed.
The next destination depends whether Red Eye finishes the mission with the Metal Slug intact or not.
