  • The first team to 100 points wins.

LIVE BUILD CHECK

  • Score cadence and zone movement
  • Hot Zone control and cash rules
  • Tower, terminal, code, and drill procedures
  • Launch maps, coordinates, and route advice

The objective hierarchy

Start with the Control Zone win condition. Smaller interactions only matter when they change presence, information, resources, or pressure around that larger objective.

Why exact timing is withheld

An older developer FAQ and beta-era competitor pages disagree on scoring rhythm. Until the live build or current official text resolves the conflict, publishing a precise cadence would be false confidence.

Three-team decisions

A third team changes rotations and timing. Before committing resources, ask which team benefits if you force a long fight and whether the active objective can change while you are occupied.

REVISION PROTOCOL

This route keeps its URL through launch. Only claims supported by the current build replace the pre-release boundary notes.
