---Death--- - Those who join The Mercenaries Initiative are protected. If you are about to die, we will extract you before you receive the fatal blow.
- Being forcefully extracted might result in psychological issues like distrusting your allies or being scared of what almost killed you.
- NPCs you meet on a mission can die, recruited NPCs follow the same death rules as you do.
- Dead NPCs cannot be revived by the "recruit NPC" reward.

---Bosses--- - The boss will only show up if you kill enough group of enemies.
- Remember that your mission is to defeat the boss, you don't have to defeat ALL enemies.
- Bosses are usually smarter. Using the same plan twice in a row might not work against them...
- Don't be surprised if the boss targets the party member with the most damage...
- Once a boss has spawned, don't forget that there's still the normal enemies to deal with.

---Rewards--- - When you complete a mission, all players involved must decide together what reward they choose
- The reward list can be found here: vitcon.boards.net/thread/2798/unlockables
- Splitting the party in different missions is a good way to gain rewards faster
- "Story progression" rewards might make the game more difficult, but picking them will eventually reveal what is responsible for the horde of monsters.
- When you pick the Costume rewards, if a NPC was in mission with you, they also gain a costume

---Worlds--- - The available worlds can be found here: vitcon.boards.net/thread/2799/available-worlds
- Doing the same map twice doesn't mean the scenario will be the exact same. You could meet different enemies, bosses or NPCs.
- Your actions on a map might affect events occuring in other maps from the same series.
- If you complete a map in a series with multiple maps, you unlock a new map for free, from the same series.
- You unlock free maps even if you redo a previous map instead of completing a new one.

---Enemy types--- - Minion: These enemies come in groups of 10 and work together as a single unit.
- Spawner: These enemies will spawn groups of Minions every turn.
- Elite: These enemies will actually fight players one on one
- Boss: This enemy is extremely powerful, but defeating it will have all other enemies flee and complete the mission
- An enemy's type will always be specified when they spawn
- Note that certain enemies might get a different type when they reappear in different missions

---HQ--- - While in-universe rooms don't get added as you will them to existence, you can consider that any room you can think of exists at HQ.
- If you bring Cipher into a mission, mercenaries cannot be sent into missions until Cipher comes back
- Socializing with NPCs might motivate them to work better with you on the field... Unless you antagonize them.
