  In order to get this you will need to finish the 1st level with all POW's found and the usable vehicle intact. You also must complete the level without dying. If you die, you'll lose all of the POW's you've rescued up to that point. You need all of them to get the full bonus points at the end of the level. It might take a few playthoughs for some people to memorize enemy locations and attacks. Once you know the level it really isn't very difficult. Here are some things to do to maximize your points.
  
  -Get all 12 POW's. The 1st 9 are out in the open and virtually impossible to miss. The last 3 are hidden during the boss battle. Once you damage the boss enough, it will raise up to reveal a gun turret underneath. Destroy that turret to reveal the final 3 prisoners.
  -Around halfway through the level you can ride a camel with guns. Shortly after getting the camel you will come across a tank vehicle to use. Take it. Then you will come to a part where you have to destroy 2 missile launcher type vehicles and several enemies. As you kill the enemies on foot one will drop an item. Most of the time it will be a jewel that will give you 30,000 points. Sometimes it will instead be an apple that will give less than 1,000 points. You really want that jewel to have the best chance of success. If you don't get it I recommend restarting.
  - Soon after that you will come across a group of helicopters. Only kill the red one in front. Killing that one will set off a chain reaction that will destroy the rest and give you a big bonus in points.
  - On the boss only use the basic attack . It will take longer but will get you way more points. You basically get the same points per bit of either attack. The other attack is stronger and does more damage and will finish the boss faster resulting in less points. Basically going for hits instead of damage.
  - Finish the boss with out dying, having all prisoners rescued and the tank vehicle intact and you will get a 540,000 point bonus at the end of the level.
  
  If you do all of these things, you will have over 800,000 points at the end of the 1st level and all Caravan mode achievements.
  
  Here is a video I recorded of me doing it. It wasn't my best run but is good enough to show people how to get this.

  Any chance of adding this video BrutalGuitar? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg1YvaqaksU

  A video would be nice. Even if you uploaded someone else's playthrough.
  I'd rather visually see it than read a novel about it. No shade, just sayin. It's easier.

  I made a video of me doing it and added it to the guide. Sorry it took me a while. I've been busy and keep forgetting to do it. Hope it helps.

  This is a complete achievement walk-through with a successful 1.5mill run of HI SCORE MODE video with constant commentary explaining everything to look for when attempting these achievements. I can guarantee you will limit the amount of play-throughs needed by watching/reading this
  
  ORIGINAL Mode: Use the walkthrough to see how to maximize points in the first 2 missions, then combine that with the save trick mentioned below to achieve 2,000,000 points.
  
  CARAVAN Mode: "Get as many points as you can in 5 Mins" So basically follow the walkthrough for Mission 1 and these cheevs shouldn't be a problem.
  *Can be glitchy I got 900k and only unlocked the 500k achievement...it wasn't until I "Quit" the game and reloaded it that it worked, but only after I reached the required score again.*
  
  HI SCORE MODE: To get 1.5mill w/o continues...this is the main focus of this video follow the tips and watch the playthrough for your best chance at success. Practice makes perfect here!
  
  *ALL TIPS / Text Guide*
  

  *** Spoiler - click to reveal ***GENERAL TIPS
  1 - Melee kills are worth 500 points opposed to 100 for shooting them
  2 - Grab ALL treasure, some can be random from 100-30000 points at some spots
  3 - Ride vehicles to the end for big points
  4 - Each POW saved = 10000 points & 30000 points for the backpack girl **you must walk into her!**
  5 - Practice makes perfect, other than random rewards everything else stays the same combat-wise
  
  ORIGINAL MODE ONLY Tips
  - You can use the “Creat Interrupt Save Data” option to create a Save exactly where you paused your game,
  and if you die you can just hit the button on your controller and “Quit” Metal Slug X.
  - When you reload ORIGINAL mode it will put you back exactly where you saved. BE CAREFUL not to save right
  before you are about to die trapping yourself in an endless death loop.
  - Use this walk-through to see how to maximize your points in the first 2 missions, leaving you with decent
  wiggle room for the 2 mill.
  
  MISSION 1 Tips
  1 - Grab the Camel! It's worth 400,000 points compared to the 200,000 for the tank.
  2 - Right before you get on the Camel throw grenades to kill the Arabian on the other camel to avoid a tough camel battle.
  3 - Just after the camel sequence there is a reward that shows up on the top level which most of the time is a 30,000 point gem, but sometime it's a sh**ty apple worth 100...restart if this happens.
  4 - At the HELICOPTER section make sure to KILL THE RED ONE 1ST as it will give you an extra 125,000 points!! :o
  5 - The last 3 POW's are underneath the BOSS after you destroy the under turret. Make sure to grab them before one walks off the screen! P.s. It is safe to go under there with your camel.
  
  MISSION 2 Tips
  1 - I would avoid using melee on the mummy enemies. Once mummified you can change safely back if you find a glowy potion somewhere before you are hit with the purple haze again.
  2 - The "Bee Mummies" were my worst enemy, I suggest you get the green mummies as soon as you can to avoid any frustration.
  3 - Just after the first 2 "Bee Mummies" there is a corpse in the lower-right corner. Interact with it for 50,000 points, but quickly run away as the corpse blows up right after!
  4 - There are 3 RNG reward sections that can contain 30,000 points in this mission, I point them out in the video.
  5 - End the level in the Mech vehicle to get 200,000 points. If you are hit twice while in the Mech, then you will have no turrets forcing you to get out if you want to finish the level.
  
  MISSION 3 "Clean-Up"
  1 - Mop up the rest of your points here if you didn't get it at the end of Mission 2.
  2 - Take it slow, grabbing all the goodies and melee killing enemies when you have the chance!
  3 - Most people should have 1.5m by the time they get to the boat section that starts with 2 POW's on the train w/ one giving you a weapon upgrade. If you don't have it by here you probably won't make it.
