Guide

Train and enemies

The engineer’s guide: what to build your train from and whom to expect on the road.

Train

Cars

Build the train for the mission: machine guns against crowds, cannons against armor, missiles against clusters. Car order matters too — the head and tail take the first hit.

Locomotive

The heart of the train. Drives it, rams light vehicles and repairs the rails. Lose the locomotive — lose everything.

DurabilitySpeedFirepower

Heavy machine-gun car

Big caliber shreds buggies and armored cars. Turns slower.

DurabilityRangeFirepower

Cannon car

An area-blast shell: smashes crowds and armor. Long reload — aim at clusters.

DurabilityRangeFirepower

Missile car

A big ballistic missile: the cradle rises, the missile soars into the sky and hits a cluster of enemies far from the tracks. Fires only while the train stands still. Expensive — but a devastating strike.

Platform

An open platform with two mounts for modules: a machine-gun mount, an artillery gun, a rocket launcher, a flamethrower or a missile silo.

DurabilityRangeFirepower

Platform modules

The platform has two mounts — fit any two modules and swap them at the depot between waves.

Machine-gun mount

Cheap and rapid-fire: bursts at motorcycles and buggies. Shoots down gliders.

RangeFirepower

Artillery gun

An area-blast shell. Doesn’t fire at close range — keep enemies at a distance.

RangeFirepower

Rocket launcher

A salvo of three rockets at a group of enemies, then a long reload.

RangeFirepower

Flamethrower

A point-blank jet of fire: burns everyone who broke through to the cars.

RangeFirepower

Missile silo

The hatches open, the catapult launches a missile and it arcs to the target. Fires on the move too. Unlocks with stars.

RangeFirepower

Raiders

Who rides to your stations

Eight kinds of enemies. Each has its own target: a station, the rails, the treasury or your train.

Motorcycle

Fast and weak, slips between the cars and rushes to the station.

DurabilitySpeed

Sidecar motorcycle

Plants a charge on the track at a crossing or near a station. Ramming is dangerous — its bomb goes off.

DurabilitySpeed

Buggy

Tougher than a motorcycle and smarter: drives around the train’s ends.

DurabilitySpeed

Jumper bike

The fastest. Jumps over the train from a ramp and rams the station.

DurabilitySpeed

Robber van

Robs the station’s vault and drives off with the loot. Hit it — and pick up the cargo with the train.

DurabilitySpeed

Armored car

Hunts the train and fires its cannon. Heavy — the train brakes hard when ramming it.

DurabilitySpeed

Glider bomber

Flies in from any side and bombs the tracks. Shoot it down before it is over the rails.

DurabilitySpeed

Robot crab

Lives on the coast: crawls out of the sea by the tracks, cuts the rail with its claws and dives back under water.

DurabilitySpeed

Bosses

The valley’s main threats

King Crab
Mission 6 · The Islands

King Crab

A huge robot crab with a mortar. Comes ashore, cuts the rail and moves to a new spot, shelling stations on the way. Get closer than 70 meters — and the mortar turns to the locomotive.

  • Armor absorbs half the damage, but while the crab cuts the rail — damage ×1.6.
  • A red circle on the ground marks where the shell lands. You have about a second to maneuver.
  • At two thirds and one third of its health it dives and releases two crabs.
Raider Train
Mission 10 · Raiders’ Lair

Raider Train

The final boss: a locomotive with a skull and three armored cars. Runs on its own loop around the gang’s lair; where its line runs next to yours it slows down — a side-by-side battle begins.

  • Its cannons hit the locomotive if it is closer than 75 meters, otherwise the stations. Red circle — move the train away.
  • Once per lap it stops to refuel at the water tower near Outpost Station: armor off, damage ×1.6, and reinforcements roll out of the gates.
  • At two thirds and one third of its durability it loses its tail car and speeds up.

Artillery strike

Click on the map — the battery salvo lands there. Unlocks in the “Artillery strike” branch.

Air strike

A flight of three bombers bombs a strip through the chosen spot. Longer reload, stronger strike.
