The reverse carnage kicks into high gear, as I fully get down to business.

(6:58) Level 5 ('Assault on the Control Room') on Normal. With the reverse trough defence set-up introduced in the last movie, and a sample play given as a taster, I now settle into a multi-movie exploration and showcasing of the combat potential. Three plays here, using three different weapon combos.

Released December 22nd 2025, gameplay recorded December 19th 2025.

00:02 (Play 1 - Needler & plasma rifle) Off to a good start here with an Elite tag on my opening plasma throw. My second is wasted though; I was trying to throw it past the Elite I'd needled, but the needle bang deflects it high. The needling goes quite well though, giving a number of Elites an explosive end. Towards the end of the battle I get caught by a plasma ball (2:17), but never mind. Not many covies left by then, and they're duly slaughtered.

02:38 (Play 2 - Sniper rifle & pistol) After picking up the rifle near the bottom of the trough, I start to back off from the covies while sniping and grenading. As you see around 3:16, the pistol is right at the end of the trough (not ideal), so it's a while before I start to use it. After sniping the final Elite around 4:13, it's pistol and grenade work all the way to the end, as I advance to mop up the panicking remnants.

04:57 (Play 3 - Launcher & AR) Some glorious carnage here. Rockets and a grenade do all the early killing as I focus on the attacking Elites, but the AR finally comes into play at 5:46, and gets a fair bit of use thereafter.

Closing remarks Next action-packed movie coming shortly!
