Space Pirates
SPACE PIRATES
Up to 4 teams compete , with each player taking a specific Pirate role from the four different types available. Each character class has different strengths, weaknesses and special abilities.
Pirates have unlimited lives and cannot be prematurely eliminated from the mission. Shots and missiles, however are limited and Pirates must be regularly re-supplied by the team ammunition carrier.

Special Abilities |
| Captain |
Nuke: All opponents are deactivated. To use hold the trigger in while up. Cost: 20sp. If the Captain is deactivated after activating the Nuke but before it detonates (approx 4 secs), the Nuke is cancelled and has no effect . |
| Hangman |
Rapid Fire: A Hangman always has rapid fire, but does not receive any normal lock on tone.
Payback: Hangman is instantly reactivated . To use hold the trigger in while down. Cost: 10sp. |
| Saboteur |
Stealth: Saboteur's visible lights can be deactivated making them hard to see. To switch between stealth and normal modes, hold trigger in while up. A saboteur can only fire missiles while in stealth mode. The missiles used by a scout in stealth lock on much faster than the missiles used by other character classes. Other players cannot obtain a normal lock on a saboteur in stealth, but can obtain a missile lock. |
| Ammo Carrier |
The ammo carrier re-supplies players on their own team by zapping or missiling them when they are up. Zapping them re-supplies their shots, while missiling them re-supplies their missiles. A Captain cannot use missiles and so should not be missiled by the Ammo Carrier (counts as a normal missile hit). |
| Navigator |
The Navigator starts in a deactivated state, however players may take control of him with a single shot. Once the Navigator has been controlled, it joins the controlling team and assumes the same role as it's controller. Once the Navigator has been controlled 5 times, he will become inactive again. The Navigator can use the same special abilities as it's Pirate controller. The controlled Navigator 's Pirate role can be changed by a single zap from a member of the controlling team. |
