Hero (HRO) is like a pimped Team Deathmatch. It's the same, but with one difference: One player gets designated as the Hero. And the Hero kicks ass. Not only will you have lightning emitting from your body, you will be auto-equipped with a full armament and your strentgh is increased as well.
As a team, collect as many points by either killing the enemies' hero, or kill as many people while being the hero. Points can be scored by:
Hero killing a civilian: 1 point Hero killing hero: 3 points Civilian kills hero: 1 Hero suicides: 1 point for the opposing team
You can spawn at any spawn point under your teams control.
Kill civilian as the hero: 1 team point Kill hero as the hero: 2 team points Kill hero as a civilian: 1 team point
No Hero specific bonus points.
Despite this being a pimped Team Deathmatch, a bit more strategy and teamwork is needed.
Note that both heroes will show up on the map as big bright stars. So when you are the hero, there's no place to hide! (Not that you even should…the heroes goal is to kick ass!)
The hero is very hard to kill. Not only is the armor rating of all vehicles the hero enters, and the hero him / her self, but also the amount of damage the hero deals out is almost doubled. Below is a table showing what it takes to kill a hero.
| Hero trooper vs Hero Warhawk | Hero trooper vs Normal Warhawk |
|---|---|
| 2 tows | 2 tows |
| 2 homing missiles | 4 homing missiles |
| 4 fully charged lightning zap | 10 fully charged lightning zap |
| 9 swarm missiles | 18 swarm missiles |
| 1 direct cluster bomb | ? direct cluster bombs |
| 13 lightning zaps | 25 lightning zaps |
| 43 machine gun shots (taps) | ? machine gun shots (taps) |
| Airmine no effect | Airmine no effect |
Not all effects are know yet, missing how many shots hero trooper takes from Normal Warhawk
| Hero trooper vs Hero tank | Hero trooper vs Normal tank |
|---|---|
| 2 tank shells | 3 tank shells |
| 1 run over | 2 run over |
Not a major difference between a hero tank and a normal tank, meaning that the first shot from a hero tank probably takes about 2/3rd of hero health
| Hero trooper vs Hero jeep | Hero vs Normal jeep |
|---|---|
| 35 machine gun shots (taps) | 102 machine gun shots |
| 1 run over | ? run over |
Still need to know how many times a normal jeep needs to run over a hero to kill him
| Hero trooper vs Hero trooper | Hero trooper vs Normal trooper |
|---|---|
| 2 mines | 3 mines |
| 3 sniper shots | 5 sniper shots |
| 2 binoc strikes | 2 binoc strikes |
| 3 rocket launcher | 5 rocket launcher |
| 3 knife slashes | 5 knife slashes |
| 20 flamethrower shots (taps) | 40 flamethrower shots (taps) |
| 42 pistol shots | 84 pistol shots |
| 94 rifle shots | 5 full rifle clips |
| 3 frags | 5 frags |
Note that not all combinations have been taken, if anyone feel to elaborate on all possible combinations, go ahead
