11 Tips & Tricks to Play Into the Brach Game
Below are the 11 tips and tricks to play into the beach game:
- When playing the game, make sure to select the easy level and stay with it for your first timelines. Ignore the usual posers claiming to play only on hard since their first timeline
- It is vital to mention that there is no order for powering upgrades of a weapon in the game
- Players can deactivate upgrades and can go ahead with using the power for other upgrades of the same mech
- Make sure to check out the enemies in the Threat Scanner before you select an island
- Flamethrower pushes targets and set tiles on fire. If the targets are already burning, then there is an additional +2 damage
- Make sure to choose the Perfect Island rewards
- The Ice mech does not receive frozen while it is shielded
- Players can point most attacks to an empty field. So, if players want side effects such as a shield, move, fire, or smoke.
- There is a burning spawn point, and the spawning enemy is set on fire (exception: Burrower). The same applies to acid
- Remember that a blocked enemy is not killed, and the spawn point stays there until and unless the enemy has spawned or the last round arrived.
- Before purchasing a 2nd squad, you better consider the impact on the Random Squad. More info in the chapter Buying Squads / Random Squad / Custom Squad.
