You must survive until they can collect the last charge to destroy the bridge.</li> <li>Onslaught: You must still try to collect all the charges, but can keep playing for as long as possible to score as many points as you can. Points are earned for destroying enemies and High scores are recorded.</li> <li>Nightmare: Hard mode, increased difficulty. Much harder to collect all the charges and blow the bridge</li> <li>Daily Assault: Uses the current date to generate a new random seed each day, so players can try to get the highest score they can with a particular combination of Charge/Skills drops and enemy spawns. (note: the high score will also reset daily!)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Charge/Skill List</strong><br /> All the different abilities your crew members can acquire to help them defend against the horde.<br /> <div><div><input type="button" value=" Show " onClick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerText = ''; this.value = ' Hide '; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerText = ''; this.value = ' Show '; }"></div><div><div style="display: none;"></p> <ul> <li> <p>Pierce Blast; shrapnel hits one unit past the impact point<br /> [ ][o][ ]<br /> [ ][X][ ]<br /> [ ][ ][ ]</p> </li> <li> <p>Split blast; shrapnel hits either side of the impact point<br /> [ ][ ][ ]<br /> [o][X][o]<br /> [ ][ ][ ]</p> </li> <li> <p>V blast; Shrapnel hits diagonally past the impact point<br /> [o][ ][o]<br /> [ ][X][ ]<br /> [ ][ ][ ]</p> </li> <li> <p>Reflect blast; Shrapnel hits diagonally back from the impact point<br /> [ ][ ][ ]<br /> [ ][X][ ]<br /> [o][ ][o]</p> </li> <li> <p>+Move; Increase movement range by 1 space</p> </li> <li> <p>Ammo Hoarder; Max Ammo gets set to 25</p> </li> <li> <p>Ammo Sharer; whenever this crew member picks up ammo, ALL other crew members get their ammo refreshed</p> </li> <li> <p>Lane Freezer; when this crew member is on the front row, all enemies in this lane are frozen and cannot move or spawn</p> </li> <li> <p>Lane Wrapper; this crew member will treat the edges of the bridge as if they are adjacent to each other.
