Notes:
In the 2 and 3 team variants of this mission, the in-field targets operate in the same manner as in a standard “Team Supercharge” mission. In the 4-team variant the in-field targets are all considered neutral.
All players do 1 Hit point damage.
If a Commander is deactivated after activating a Nuke but before it detonates (approx. 5-7 seconds), the Nuke is cancelled and has no effect on opponents. The 20sp for the Nuke are used for no effect.
A Heavy Weapons always has rapid fire, but does not receive any normal lock-on tone.
A Scout can only fire shots while in non-stealth mode, and can only fire missiles while in stealth mode. The missiles used by a Scout in stealth lock-on much faster than the missiles used by other character classes. Other players cannot obtain a normal lock-on on a Scout in stealth, but can obtain a missile lock.
The Ammo Carrier resupplies players on their own team by zapping or missiling them while they are up. Zapping them resupplies their shots, while missiling them resupplies their missiles. A Commander cannot use missiles and so should not be missiled by the Ammo Carrier (counts as a normal missile hit).
A maximum of 20 special points can be accumulated.
A player can lose shots if they are missiled (5 shots) or nuked (2 shots)
