'''Airship Fortress''' is the fourth and last course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The course is placed in a fortress floating that's in disrepair in the gloomy sky and in an [[airship]] as well. All the course was inspired by the environment of boss levels seen in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Other airships can be seen flying away in the sky.
'''Airship Fortress''' is the fourth and final course of the [[Star Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The course takes place both on a floating fortress in disrepair and on an [[airship]]. The course is inspired by the environment of boss levels seen in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Other airships can be seen flying in the background.


The most notable feature in the course is the [[Cannon Pipe]] that shoots racers out to the fortress through the air. Furthermore, the track includes harmful obstacles like [[Bullet Bills]], [[Rocky Wrench]]es and more. Airship Fortress is the only course in the entire ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series to feature Bullet Bills being shot right at a player. [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|Missions]] 6-2 and 7-7 are carried out here.
Airship Fortress reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the third race of the [[Lightning Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Pirate Tour]].
 
==Layout==
[[Image:MKDSAirshipFortress.png|thumb|left|[[Princess Peach]] being shot away by the [[Cannon Pipe]].]]
The track starts in a straight way, where a barrage of [[Bullet Bill]]s shot from a [[Cannon Pipe]] of the craft will wipe any vehicle out if they collide. Passing this section of the track players will turn and get a boost running over a [[Dash Panel]] to enter to the deck of the airship. Outside the ship, racers must dodge the pesky [[Rocky Wrench]]es that pop out from their trenches to attack the racer whom goes toward it. Proceeding inside the airship, players take a tight turn and reach the cellar where some [[crate]]s spread in the room may contain a useful [[Mushroom]] or an unpleasant [[Banana|Banana Peel]] if the [[Kart]] breaks the box at great speed. The next room to follow includes burners moving to the sides, that players can spin out of control if they touch the fire. Players go out from the airship launched by the big Cannon Pipe after a dash pannel, similar to [[DK Mountain]], to arrive in the tower of the fortress through the hole the cannon clearly aimed. Turning around through the corkscrew in the tower to go down, players finish the race. The players can also push other racers into a crack at the very end of the course and once they pass the finish line they will be down one lap. This may not work all the time.

===Course layout===
The race starts with a straightaway, where a barrage of [[Bullet Bill]]s are shot from a [[Bill Blaster]] of the airship and cause players to flip over if they touch them. Passing this section of the track, players turn left with a right turn shortly after and get a boost by running over a [[Dash Panel]], entering the deck of the airship, where [[Rocky Wrench]]es pop out from their trenches, hitting racers who drive over them. Proceeding inside the airship, players take a tight left turn and reach the cellar where some [[crate]]s are spread throughout the room. They may contain a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]] or a [[Banana|Banana Peel]] if broken. The next room features a pair of [[burner]]s moving sideways that cause players to spin out if they touch the fire. Players exit the airship by being launched by the airship's Pipe Cannon with a Dash Panel, similar to [[GCN DK Mountain|DK Mountain]], aimed at a hole in the fortress tower. Following the corkscrew inside the tower, there's one last turn to finish the race. Just before the last turn, players can knock other racers off the course.
===Missions===
===Missions===
There is a mission where the player has to hit 15 Rocky Wrenches using [[Star]]s. The player has 30 seconds to complete it. But once the star runs out, the player has to get another Star in the [[Item Box]]. Stars always appear every time the player breaks one.
There are two [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|missions]] that take place on Airship Fortress:
*'''Mission 6-2''': The player controls [[Wario]], who must use [[Super Star|Stars]] to hit 15 Rocky Wrenches within 30 seconds.
*'''Mission 7-7''': The player controls [[Bowser]], who must collect 12 [[coin]]s while driving in reverse. This requires the player to navigate a maze-like arrangement of wooden crates and then avoid the pair of burners.

Airship Fortress returns as the third track in the [[Lightning Cup]] in the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]] game ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. Immediately following the starting line, both drop-offs can be used to perform a trick and gain a small boost. As well, the Bullet Bills have become [[Banzai Bill]]s, and are now shot out at faster intervals. The interior of the airship has some minor changes. The room with the Rocket Engines now has a fencing floor with lava under it. Just like [[Waluigi Pinball]] and [[Maple Treeway]], the cannon in this track contains a gliding pad, but once again, players cannot move left or right while being launched.
Airship Fortress makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the third course of the [[Lightning Cup]]. The [[Finish Line (object)|grid]] has been recolored from black and yellow to red and white while the banner was changed to a unique, steel-framed wooden panel displaying the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo in orange. In the straightaway following the starting line, both drop-offs can be used to perform a [[trick]] and gain a small boost. The Bullet Bills have become [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]]s, are now shot out from the [[Banzai Bill Cannon]] at faster intervals, and are no longer visible on the bottom screen map. Some of the Banzai Bills are larger in scale compared to others. The interior of the airship has some minor changes, most notably the presence of a slight curve within the cellar, while the exterior of it has a [[Warp Pipe]] added near the Pipe Cannon (similar to ''Super Mario Bros. 3''{{'}}s) and the fortress section has additional towers. The burner room now has a ventilated floor exposing the sky underneath the airship, and the [[Rocky Wrench]]es now make sounds similar to [[Monty Mole]]s. Hitting a Banzai Bill has the similar effect as getting struck by a [[Bob-omb]], a [[Bullet Bill]], or a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], causing the player to tumble and roll over sideways.
 
Racers are now vulnerable to some other items especially lightning. Players may fall to the gap, if they cancel the glider or if they are hit by the item at the glider pad or during the launch. If players do fall down, they will get picked up by [[Lakitu]] and brought back to the tower of the fortress or the ramp that was very close to the beginning of the launch.
Launching out of the Pipe Cannon now encompasses a [[Glide Ramp]]. Players cannot aim their flight and they are also no longer immune to items while in the Pipe Cannon, and being hit by anything (or intentionally stowing their glider) results in having to be rescued by [[Lakitu]].

===Shortcuts===
*Dropping onto the rail between the [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]] section and first boost panel in order to take the turn tighter saves a minimal amount of time.
*Dropping onto the longer rail at the start of the lap is useful during races as, while not necessarily saving time, it allows the player to dodge items and Banzai Bills.
*A difficult shortcut can be performed by leaning off the curve on the second, smaller rail to gain an upwards angle and using a [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]. If the player goes far enough, Lakitu will place them just before the cannon. If done quickly, it saves around ten seconds.<ref>{{cite|url=youtube.com/watch?v=h1rnjiASlEA|timestamp=4:01|language=ja|title=【マリオカート7】全バグショートカット集 #マリオカート7|author=MOMIジ|date=June 15, 2020|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=August 1, 2024}}</ref>

[[File:MKT Airship Fortress Scene.jpg|250px|thumb|left|The course in ''Mario Kart Tour'']]
Airship Fortress also returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[Pirate Tour]], with grand graphical changes. The main tower is now part of a larger fortress, with other towers in the background. The location of the course changes from the sky to a lava-filled ocean, as well as the sky being much more orange in color, as opposed to the purple hue it originally bestowed. Several lit torches were added to the sides of the track before the main airship and on each column of the main tower and hanging lanterns on the main airship's deck. The starting banner is now made of stone that is held up by two small towers, and the ''Mario Kart'' logo on the starting banner is the modern logo, colored cyan. The main airship and several others are a more lighter brown in color, with their masts now possessing propellers instead of sails. Hitting a [[Rocky Wrench]] now gives points to the player instead of making them spin-out, and players can now [[trick]] on top of Rocky Wrenches that poke their heads out of the ground. The tunnel leading to the main airship's cabin has also been given a redesign, with the doors being replaced by multiple portholes, lights, and groups of barrels and crates, while the wall separating the two rooms now resembling the type of wall seen inside a wine cellar. Additionally, the main airship's cabin has been redesigned to resemble a drinking bar, with [[Shy Guy]]s sitting on stools, bottles on shelves, a dartboard, and several tables.
 
The course also appears as '''Airship Fortress R''' (reversed), '''Airship Fortress T''' (with ramps), and '''Airship Fortress R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The first two debuted in the Pirate Tour, while the third debuted in the [[Trick Tour (2021)|2021 Trick Tour]]. In the R and R/T variants, the [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]]s are gone. In the T variant, the cannon is removed, and racers use [[Kanaami Road]] to cross the gap. In the R/T variant, there is a row of Rocky Wrenches just before the finish line.

Airship Fortress is the fourth and final course of the Star Cup in Mario Kart DS. The course takes place both on a floating fortress in disrepair and on an airship. The course is inspired by the environment of boss levels seen in Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. Other airships can be seen flying in the background.

Airship Fortress reappears in Mario Kart 7 as the third race of the Lightning Cup, and in Mario Kart Tour starting with the Pirate Tour.

Mario Kart DS[edit]

Course layout[edit]

The race starts with a straightaway, where a barrage of Bullet Bills are shot from a Bill Blaster of the airship and cause players to flip over if they touch them. Passing this section of the track, players turn left with a right turn shortly after and get a boost by running over a Dash Panel, entering the deck of the airship, where Rocky Wrenches pop out from their trenches, hitting racers who drive over them. Proceeding inside the airship, players take a tight left turn and reach the cellar where some crates are spread throughout the room. They may contain a Mushroom or a Banana Peel if broken. The next room features a pair of burners moving sideways that cause players to spin out if they touch the fire. Players exit the airship by being launched by the airship's Pipe Cannon with a Dash Panel, similar to DK Mountain, aimed at a hole in the fortress tower. Following the corkscrew inside the tower, there's one last turn to finish the race. Just before the last turn, players can knock other racers off the course.

Missions[edit]

There are two missions that take place on Airship Fortress:

  • Mission 6-2: The player controls Wario, who must use Stars to hit 15 Rocky Wrenches within 30 seconds.
  • Mission 7-7: The player controls Bowser, who must collect 12 coins while driving in reverse. This requires the player to navigate a maze-like arrangement of wooden crates and then avoid the pair of burners.

Mario Kart 7[edit]

DS Airship Fortress in Mario Kart 7

Airship Fortress makes its classic course debut in Mario Kart 7 as the third course of the Lightning Cup. The grid has been recolored from black and yellow to red and white while the banner was changed to a unique, steel-framed wooden panel displaying the classic Mario Kart logo in orange. In the straightaway following the starting line, both drop-offs can be used to perform a trick and gain a small boost. The Bullet Bills have become Banzai Bills, are now shot out from the Banzai Bill Cannon at faster intervals, and are no longer visible on the bottom screen map. Some of the Banzai Bills are larger in scale compared to others. The interior of the airship has some minor changes, most notably the presence of a slight curve within the cellar, while the exterior of it has a Warp Pipe added near the Pipe Cannon (similar to Super Mario Bros. 3's) and the fortress section has additional towers. The burner room now has a ventilated floor exposing the sky underneath the airship, and the Rocky Wrenches now make sounds similar to Monty Moles. Hitting a Banzai Bill has the similar effect as getting struck by a Bob-omb, a Bullet Bill, or a Spiny Shell, causing the player to tumble and roll over sideways.

Launching out of the Pipe Cannon now encompasses a Glide Ramp. Players cannot aim their flight and they are also no longer immune to items while in the Pipe Cannon, and being hit by anything (or intentionally stowing their glider) results in having to be rescued by Lakitu.

Shortcuts[edit]

  • Dropping onto the rail between the Banzai Bill section and first boost panel in order to take the turn tighter saves a minimal amount of time.
  • Dropping onto the longer rail at the start of the lap is useful during races as, while not necessarily saving time, it allows the player to dodge items and Banzai Bills.
  • A difficult shortcut can be performed by leaning off the curve on the second, smaller rail to gain an upwards angle and using a Mushroom. If the player goes far enough, Lakitu will place them just before the cannon. If done quickly, it saves around ten seconds.[1]

Mario Kart Tour[edit]

The course in Mario Kart Tour

Airship Fortress also returns in Mario Kart Tour starting with the Pirate Tour, with grand graphical changes. The main tower is now part of a larger fortress, with other towers in the background. The location of the course changes from the sky to a lava-filled ocean, as well as the sky being much more orange in color, as opposed to the purple hue it originally bestowed. Several lit torches were added to the sides of the track before the main airship and on each column of the main tower and hanging lanterns on the main airship's deck. The starting banner is now made of stone that is held up by two small towers, and the Mario Kart logo on the starting banner is the modern logo, colored cyan. The main airship and several others are a more lighter brown in color, with their masts now possessing propellers instead of sails. Hitting a Rocky Wrench now gives points to the player instead of making them spin-out, and players can now trick on top of Rocky Wrenches that poke their heads out of the ground. The tunnel leading to the main airship's cabin has also been given a redesign, with the doors being replaced by multiple portholes, lights, and groups of barrels and crates, while the wall separating the two rooms now resembling the type of wall seen inside a wine cellar. Additionally, the main airship's cabin has been redesigned to resemble a drinking bar, with Shy Guys sitting on stools, bottles on shelves, a dartboard, and several tables.

The course also appears as Airship Fortress R (reversed), Airship Fortress T (with ramps), and Airship Fortress R/T (reversed with ramps). The first two debuted in the Pirate Tour, while the third debuted in the 2021 Trick Tour. In the R and R/T variants, the Banzai Bills are gone. In the T variant, the cannon is removed, and racers use Kanaami Road to cross the gap. In the R/T variant, there is a row of Rocky Wrenches just before the finish line.

Profiles[edit]

  • Website description:
    • English (British):
      Bowser should be right at home in these ships in the sky. Race across the decks of these floating wrecks, get blasted from cannons and dodge oncoming missile fire, as you fight to stay in one piece long enough to take the pole position.

Mario Kart Tour[edit]

  • Mario Kart Tour Twitter: It's time for the Pirate Tour! The DS Airship Fortress course makes its debut in Mario Kart Tour. It's a long way down from this floating fortress, so make sure you stay on course![5]

Trivia[edit]

  • Airship Fortress is one of two courses in the Mario Kart series that has had three different starting line logos, it used the same design as Figure-8 Circuit, Yoshi Falls, Desert Hills, and Wario Stadium in Mario Kart DS with the 5 Nintendo logo-styled Mario Kart logos in a row, the classic Mario Kart logo in Mario Kart 7, and the modern Mario Kart logo in Mario Kart Tour. Coincidentially, both are from Mario Kart DS, with the other one being Waluigi Pinball.
