%% * CriticalExistenceFailure: True for the player, but can be averted for most Mooks.

* HealingPotion: The Power Cores and the smaller Drive Units dropped by most mobile [[Mooks]] repair the player's vehicle when obtained. Additionally, the player's vehicle drops a small Power Core when destroyed.

* AbnormalAmmo: Every non-standard ammunition.
* AIIsACrapshoot: The problem that kicks off the game's [[ExcusePlot plot]].
* AllThereInTheManual: All vehicle and weapon names, in addition to the mention of the Tehric system.
* AnimalThemeNaming: Every vehicle the player can drive, as well as every enemy vehicle in the game, but [[AllThereInTheManual only mentioned in the manual]].
* AwesomeButImpractical: Any ammunition can become this.
* BountyHunter: The PlayerCharacter.
* CarFu: Possible, but not a useful tactic.
* CollisionDamage: Oddly missing, with the exception of damage from falling or tumbling a lot.

* CriticalExistenceFailure: True for the player, but can be averted for most Mooks.
* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: The player is given an unlimited amount of tanks (and possibly lives) to complete their mission.
* FallingDamage: See "CollisionDamage".

* KillerRobot: Every single enemy in the game.

A 3D VehicularCombat game from 1999.
