| The Homing Missile Launcher
| This is a new kind of ammo for the normal Rocket Launcher
easily recognizable by the blue shining stripes. We just added a heat seeking rocket head
for extra fun! Excellent if you want to play at being a flak cannon against those Jet Pack
users or want to knock down another players turret! |

The Buzz Saw
| Did you ever see the scene in 'Gremlins' where poor Billy
meets the flying buzzsaw blades? (Wide grin) That's a typical
'Want-To-Have-In-My-Favorite-Game'! weapon And here it is: the famous Buzz Saw Gun! The
best part is that the blades are reflected from walls and doors. But NOT from other
players! They will go straight through them, leaving them pretty confused about the funny
sound they heard before saying goodbye. So what have we learned? BEWARE of standing in
small rooms if an opponent is in the hallway with a buzzsaw in his hands! |

The Gravity Vortex
Now we're at the part of "Ancient Weapons With Mystical
And Unimaginable Powers": Here's our new favorite sucker (you can take that literally
:) The two rings look kind of unspectacular at first....BUT!! Ummm...let me put it this
way: throw it and RUN!!! Two seconds after hitting the ground, this devil will start to
"vacuum" and compress its surroundings into ONE point...items, weapons,
PLAYERS!! (Anyone who has seen "The Arrival" knows what I mean) So, for the next
15 seconds, haul ass and stay out of its way!
(It has approximately 100 feet of pull radius :) |

The Automatic Sentry Turrets
Here is our second group of "Helpers from Hell":
the cute (and brutally effective) Automatic Sentry Turrets! There are two different
versions available: the Automatic Defense Turret, which uses two nice internal chainguns
and the Automatic Rocket Turret, shooting nasty
triple mini-rockets. Both are very hard to find, but if you have one of them, you're
lucky... They are ideal e.g. for guarding your base in CTF and they shoot till they get
killed or their ammo is empty ....
(But consider carefully the place you put it...because there can only exist three turrets
at the same time in one level!) BTW: Watch out that you don't accidentally
hit 'em with a weapon...in this case their emergency sub-routine will start, and fire at
their attacker (..EVEN YOU!! :) Got it? Also a nice feature: they love to hunt enemy Proxy
Grenades! :) But beware: due to the fact that Proxy grenades also attack Turrets a whole
bunch of proxies is an ideal "Anti-Turret" weapon!!
And now a special tip for all those weepers who don't know how to kill them:
- Don't, DON'T, attack them directly. If there's a turret near you, run and strafe like
hell!
- Rockets are a good thing to get 'em. Hide behind a nearby wall, strafe, shoot, strafe!
Ok?
(Homing Missiles are even better! :)
- The ideal weapon against the Turrets (like I already wrote) are the Proxies!
A little swarm of them will get a undefended turret easily with very little effort!
- If you have MUCH armor and shield you can try to crack an already groggy turret with the
Boradsword or the Chainsaw.
Just works like a can opener :)
- And: other turrets! If you have one, then place it near the enemy turret.
They always attack competitors which aren't from the same player/team! |
