The Alligator LK19, played

The Alligator LK19's game, top to bottom. The only class that flies. It runs on a tank of fuel that only two pads refill. It has to land before it can touch anything on the ground, and its damage comes from rockets on a timer. One per game, Enlisted only, and only in Hard, Insane, Nightmare, PMC and Apocalypse.

The rockets

What the tooltips do not say: how many rockets leave the rails at each level, and how long the cast takes. Range is 70 for every one of them. Every rocket but the nuclear one can be fired on the move.

Rocket	Level	Energy	Charges	What leaves the rails	Cast
HE Rocket	1	150	1, back in 55 s	1 rocket, 1,250 in a 3 radius	1.2 s
	2	120	1, back in 45 s	1 rocket, 2,500 in a 3.6 radius	1.05 s
	3	105	2, one back every 20 s, both spent per cast	2 rockets of 1,875, 4.2 radius each	0.9 s
	4	90	4, one back every 15 s, all four spent per cast	4 rockets of 1,250, 5 radius each	0.75 s
HE Rocket Single Launch	HE 4	40	4, one back every 15 s, one per cast	1 rocket, 1,250 in a 2.5 radius	0.25 s
Napalm Rocket	1 to 4		120 s cooldown at every level	2 / 4 / 6 / 8 rockets of 1,000 / 2,000 / 1,250 / 1,250, radius 3 / 3.6 / 4.2 / 5	1.2 s to 0.75 s
EMI Plasma Rocket	1 to 4		2, 4, 6, 10 min	1 rocket, full damage out to radius 6 / 8 / 11 / 14, no falloff ring	1.2 s to 0.75 s
Nuclear Rocket		300	1 hour	50,000 in a 10 radius, 80 % to 12, half to 14, a quarter to 16; then 250 every half second to anything biological within 16, for 60 s	15 s

• The full-damage radius above falls to 75 % and then 25 % one and two steps further out. Every HE and napalm rocket does half to mechanical and loses 250 to 600 flat against armored and massive.
• Switch Rockets Mode is a toggle that appears at HE 4. Single launch draws on the same four charges as the full launch, one per cast instead of all four. That is 5,000 damage for 160 energy spread over four aimed shots, against the full launch's 5,000 for 90 in one place.
• Napalm and EMI Plasma share a cooldown link in the ability data: firing one starts the other's cooldown too. The lockout runs at the timer of the one you fired, so EMI Plasma 4 takes napalm away for 10 minutes while napalm only takes EMI Plasma away for 2.
• The AI runs from your rockets. When an HE, single, napalm or nuclear cast starts, every computer-owned biological unit within 5 of the target point is ordered to sprint out of it. EMI Plasma is not on that list, which is why the community's page says PMCs dodge regular rockets and not the plasma.
• The nuke is a 15 s cast that cannot be interrupted and disables everything else on the helicopter, the reload included, while a red ping shows the target to every player. The button only exists once the map authorizes it: at the start of chapter 1 in the regular modes (when the PSprologue's sensor mission ends, placed or timed out), when the CIcrew is extracted or killed in PMC. The chapter 3 and chapter 4 transitions clear every hero's cooldowns, the hour included. Mechanical and robotic units take the blast but not the fallout.

Pilot ranks

Four rewards the script hands out at the end of a won game, in a fixed ladder: each needs the one before it. They are read back from your profile at every spawn.

The community's page lists the same four; where its conditions differ (it asks for Outbreak on the rocket wins, and gives the generator as a flat 1.25 a second) the script and the behaviour data above are what the game does.

Numbers are read from the map file: its ability, effect, behaviour and weapon data, and its trigger script.
