TIPS
Important Tips:
Other than skill, (and just as important) using weapons and ammunition stocks ap
propriately and efficiently are the best warranty for survival (to learn more, p
lease see weapons characteristics below).
Players are encouraged to develop strategies, tactics and techniques to get ahea
d, score the highest number of points and to survive the greatest amount of game
levels. Target prioritizing is important, although it may not seem to be much
of an issue in the lower levels of the game, target prioritizing will become pro
gressively more important and crucial as the game advances and grows in difficul
ty.

Prioritizing can make the whole difference in a level, which may seem impossible
to defeat. What targets to destroy first, what weapons to use when, against wh
at targets and in what order are variables which will directly affect your succe
ss in the game.
As the game progresses and players learn how to be more effective it's only fair
that the enemy (each weapon and the army as a whole) also learns from their own
mistakes and becomes progressively more effective. Consequently, the enemy wil
l get smarter as the game progresses and employ better tactics and strategies ag
ainst the player. Individual weapons will get smarter, harder to hit and more e
ffective and the entire enemy attack will become better coordinated and effectiv
e.
Please note: Each wave and level is designed to be different with different type
s of weapons employed in different order, in different numbers and combinations.
