The Last Stand
Hero Wargear — Each hero in Last Stand keeps an inventory of wargear to equip before entering a match. The role of your hero is heavily determined by what wargear they bring. Wargear grants all the abilities they can potentially use, as well as providing character traits and enhancing character stats. New wargear, and thus new abilities and versatility, are gained by leveling up.
Levelling — When a game of Last Stand ends, all heroes in that game gain experience, which can cause them to level up. Experience is always equally distributed amongst team members based on the overall team score. Leveling up does not change a hero’s base stats, but whenever a hero levels up, a new piece of wargear will be added to their inventory. So even at low levels, heroes can be just as powerful as those at high levels - but having a higher level hero will give you more options and ways of playing your character.
Scoring — The goal of Last Stand, besides survival, is to earn as high a score as possible. 20 waves of enemies will pour into an arena with your heroes, and killing those enemies earns points towards your team score, shown in the upper left of the screen. Points from each kill are increased by your team’s Multiplier. Your Multiplier is increased by capturing and retaining control of the two capture points in the arena, killing an entire wave of enemies rapidly, and staying alive. With good teamwork, you can increase your multiplier to over 100, resulting in huge scores for each enemy slain!
Reviving Teammates — It is inevitable that either you or one of your teammates will be killed by the swarms of enemies in Last Stand, but so long as at least one of you is still alive, they can be revived and resume fighting. To revive a fallen teammate, a surviving player must click on the fallen player’s character model with their right mouse button. The surviving hero will move to the fallen hero and, after several seconds, bring the fallen hero back to life with partial health. Be warned, if the rescuer is knocked back, killed, or enters a new command, the revival attempt will be interrupted.
Space Marine Captain
The versatile Space Marine Captain is a master of the battlefield. He can lay waste to enemies with his melee and ranged weapons, and has the highest capacity for health and health regenerative bonuses. He is able to take this weight and throw it around, charging or jumping into the fray knocking down enemies. The Captain’s wargear lets him support his allies with the only direct heal ability available and his ranged resurrection ability. The Space Marine Captain is a juggernaut, capable of stunning, taunting, and knocking down enemies while tearing them apart with his weapon of choice.
Eldar Farseer
Capable of dealing enormous amounts of damage, the melee oriented Farseer must get close to enemies to unleash her fury. To compliment her melee prowess, the Farseer hits enemies from afar with pure psychic energy to rip them apart or turn them against each other, causing them to recklessly attack their comrades. Leveraging her psychic abilities the Farseer can shift seamlessly from slaughtering enemies to supporting allies, granting wards of invulnerability to friends in need, concealing them from view, or teleporting them out of harm’s way.
Ork Mekboy
Master of utility, the Mekboy has a weapon for every occasion. The Burna scorches large groups of enemies, while the Big Shoota wears down any larger single targets. Need more crowd control? His Rokkit Launcha keeps small clusters of enemies knocked down, while the Deffgun Dakka can lay down suppressive fire on large groups. The Mekboy has an odd, but effective arsenal of technology to assist his allies. His Booby Traps slow down and debilitate enemies. His Mega-Rumblah causes the earth to shake, stunning all enemies in view. His Bouncy Shield turns him, or an ally, into a living bowling ball, knocking down any nearby enemies and protecting allies from close range attacks.
