abstract | - M13: Phantom is the thirteenth mission in Metroid Prime: Federation Force. In this mission, after some time away from the planet, the Federation Force returns to Talvania to retrieve three Architects, storage devices containing Space Pirate research, from an abandoned factory site. The mission's bonus objective is to take no damage from the gas that is prevalent throughout the facility. Samus Aran's Gunship can be seen flying overhead. The Force finds the Architects attached to a machine, but upon trying to release them, the Architects fly off. The Marines must give chase. The Architects must shot with charged blasts in order to "fry their circuits" and cause them to stop long enough to be picked up. Then the Marines must take them to their ship, while fending off Pirate Troopers and Cloaked Troopers. They cannot carry the Architects and kill Pirates at the same time, but if AI Combat Drones are being used, they will carry the Architect to the ship. When playing solo, this mission can be extremely difficult without power-increasing MODs as the Pirates will be relentless in their pursuit of the Marine, the Architects will not be easy to shoot and AI Combat Drones, if they are equipped, will frequently drop them.
