A CITY UNDER SIEGE
Fight your way through 9 new missions in the Urban Onslaught campaign to defend the great city of Mahanagar.
A ferocious Arachnid onslaught has swept through the city’s suburbs, completely overwhelming local police forces. Never before did they face such a massive and meticulously orchestrated assault. Majestic boulevards and towering skyscrapers are reduced to rubble as the Bug hordes encroach upon the central districts. The very homes of our citizens are now in grave peril…
PROTECT & SERVE
A strong police force has been keeping the peace in the streets of Mahanagar. It is even trained and equipped to deal with the minor Arachnid outbreaks that sometimes occur in the outer districts.
Each Police Squad operates a pair of detainer drones, designed to take down crime suspects - or distract the attention of Arachnids.
Their big shields and heavy armor are designed to resist enemy attacks and their grenade launchers can whittle down even the biggest enemies.
This command vehicle can call in reinforcements, boost the damage output of friendly units and provide indirect fire support with its dual grenade launchers.
MILITARY MIGHT
The current Arachnid incursion, however, calls for a much stronger response. The Mobile Infantry has arrived to preserve freedom and smash the Bugs! They’ve brought the latest war machines to quell even the most vicious Arachnid threats.
The "Jumpjet Assault Cannon" Trooper carries a large recoilless rifle to smash through medium armor and a jetpack to take them to the high ground - or to get out of trouble.
This highly mobile weapon platform can fire on the move to deal with both ground and air targets, and a booster jump ability to reach advantageous positions.
When you need an endless storm of missiles to rain down upon your enemy, deploy the Rainmaker. This mobile missile launcher excels at providing long range fire support.
Take control of the skies with the Pegasus Gunship. Its powerful minigun and wing-mounted rocket pods are ideal for ground support missions.
HOLD THE LINE
To stem the tide, a whole new set of defensive turrets is available for deployment. No matter what the Arachnids throw at our positions, we have a combination of turrets ready to throw them back.
This sturdy turret can take a lot of punishment, and its dual autocannons are effective against medium armored enemies but tend to overheat quickly.
This turret fires a barrage of mortar rounds to counter large hordes of lightly armored enemies.
This weapon mounts a high velocity gun designed to take on heavily armored targets.
When your defenses are under long range bombardment, deploy these turrets. Its heat seeking missiles can take down enemies from a great distance.
KNOW YOUR ENEMY
Federal Intelligence has reported the presence of several new Bug types rampaging through the ruins of Mahanagar. A good M.I. commander comes prepared to deal with these new threats.
Bursters eject a volatile substance that combusts after a short time delay. The dorsal glands that produce this substance also tend to explode upon the creature’s death.
These flying Arachnids lack significant destructive firepower, but the real menace lies in their nests, which incessantly churn out a relentless swarm of Hornets.
The Hornet Tanker carries Hornet nests on its back. Reaching and neutralizing this monstrosity, while managing the endless stream of Hornets, requires a careful approach.
This Arachnid is a formidable foe capable of launching explosive projectiles. When it loses its tail from battle damage, it will charge in with its massive pincers.
