Total Carnage/Mission 3

Once Captain Carnage and Major Mayhem have reappeared on the screen, you'll have to walk down (while avoiding two land mines at the top-right and bottom-left of the screen) to collect an ID tag (which will always be present) to the left of a sixth flagpole (which has the text "CHECKPOINT #6" below it) with a larger US flag for an extra life; once you have done so, you shall have to walk back up and to the left to collect a key on the left side of the screen, then walk back down again as General Akhboob's chauffeur-driven car comes rolling past from the right side of the screen. You will then have to walk to the left as a total of fifty-four trucks (twenty-four jeeps one of which will leave another ID tag behind when destroyed, along with three eight-wheeled with SCUDs on their backs, and thirty-six six-wheeled with shot-firing turrets) come rolling towards you, from the left side of the screen (there's also ten more land mines to avoid walking onto, ten more keys and a third ID tag which shall again always be present to collect, a load of blue jewels arranged to spell the password for the mutant's cutscene "EATS" to collect, nine hostages to rescue and two parked green jeeps at the top of the screen to destroy) - and for each six-wheeled truck you fire enough shots at to set alight, a flaming green-trousered gunner shall jump out of it, so you'll have to fire a shot at him to kill him as well. Once you have fired enough shots at the final truck to set it alight (or it has gone), the text "DESTROYED: XX'" (XX being the number of trucks destroyed) shall appear under both players' HUDs; if you've managed to destroy all fifty-four, the text "ALL VEHICHLES DESTROYED! 25000 POINT BONUS AND FREE MAN AWARDED!" (the misspelling of "vehicles" is also, again, accurate) will appear on the screen, with the text "TRUCKS ESCAPED: 0" below it; however, if even one of them has escaped, the text "SCUD DESTRUCTION BONUS. X000 POINTS AWARDED!" (X000 again ranging from 1000 to 5000, and determined by the amount of trucks destroyed) shall appear on the screen instead, with the text "TRUCKS ESCAPED: XX (XX again being the number of trucks that escaped) below it. The text of "WAVE WINNER. BONUS: 2500" shall then appear under the HUD of the player who destroyed the most trucks as a load of jewels and American flags appears in the top-left of the screen - and once you've collected them all, the screen shall cut to the shot of the United States Military Headquarters as the text "UNITED NATIONS INCOMING TRANSMISSION" appears on it, then cuts to enormous magenta mutant creeping up behind a soldier and eating him alive as the text "COMING SOON FOR YOU" flashes up below it:

GREAT SCOTT!

SEND IN THE DOOMSDAY SQUAD!

The text "ENTER GENERAL AKHBOOB'S BIO-NUCLEAR FACILITY AND HUNT HIM DOWN LIKE A DOG!" shall now appear on the screen; the game shall now return to the battlefield, and you'll have to walk down and to the left to collect an eleventh key (which will once again always be present) and a third map of Kookistan. Once you have done so, the full view of the map (which now has a top view of this mission to its right) shall come into view from the right side of the screen once again, as the following text (which now contains hidden messages from the programmers) appears in the box to its left:

ENTER AKHBOOB'S TOP SECRET FACILITY AND DESTROY HIS CAPABILITY TO CREATE MUTANT ''LIFE FORMS. YOU'' MUST THEN FIGHT AND CAPTURE HIM.

ENTER SECRET PATH FOR BIG KEY BONUS

EAT AT BROWNS

BULLS RULE NOW

PISTONS WILL RULE THE NBA AGAIN.

MIDWAY RULES

The texts "SNEAK PREVIEW HIDDEN HERE" and "THE ROAD LEADS HERE" shall also flash up at the top and bottom of the mission's top view, along with "PRESS START TO CONTINUE" at the bottom of the screen; once you have pressed either Start Button to continue, you shall have to walk back to the right and up as a troop of red-suited axe-wielders comes running down towards you from the top of the screen (an electric land mine will also appear on top of a twelfth regular one on its left side). Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will have to walk to the right to collect a fourth ID tag (that shall yet again always be present) to the left of a seventh flagpole (which has the text "CHECKPOINT #7" below it) with a larger US flag for a third extra life - and once you have done so, you will have to walk up and to the right to collect a twelfth key (which will for a fifth time always be present), hidden in the bushes on the right side of the screen. You will now have to walk back to the left and either go up to a blue-and-magenta warp disc to warp to a seventh bonus area, or pass it up and walk up around the blue-and-magenta warp disc to rescue three more hostages on the left side of the screen.

A troop of blue- and red-suited axe-wielders will then come running down towards you from the top of the screen (the text "USE BOMBS IN THIS AREA" is also in the centre of the screen); once you've fired a shot at each of these to kill them you'll have to walk to the right to rescue four more hostages and collect a thirteenth key (which will for a seventh time always be present) hidden in the bushes on the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you'll have to walk back to the left and up as a second troop of red-suited axe-wielders comes running towards you from the right side of the screen - and once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them (there's also a thirteenth regular land mine on its left side, and another electric land mine will also appear on top of a fourteenth regular one on its right one), a troop of red-, blue- and purple-suited axe-wielders will run down towards you from the top of the screen (there is also a fifteenth regular land mine on its right side). Once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them, two more troops of red-suited axe-wielders will come running towards you from the left and right sides of the screen; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them (a third electric land mine shall also appear on top of a sixteenth regular one in its top-left corner), a troop of blue- and purple-suited axe-wielders shall come running towards you from the right side of the screen. Once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them, a black-and-yellow spider will come running down towards you from the top of the screen - and once you've fired enough shots at him to kill him, he will leave a load of red spider eggs behind (which, you may remember, are worth a bonus when collected so you shall have to collect as many of them as you can before they hatch) and a fifth troop of red-suited axe-wielders will come running towards you from the left side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them you will have to walk up and to the right to rescue two more hostages at the gates of General Akhboob's second "Baby Milk Factory"; once you've dropped a bomb by them to destroy them, you will have to walk up through them and walk to the left to collect three more keys (which will for an eighth time always be present), hidden by the left wall. You will then have to walk to the right to collect five more keys (which will for a ninth time always be present), hidden by the right wall - and once you've done so you will have to continue walking up as a sixth troop of red-suited axe-wielders comes running down towards you from the top of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, the text "NUCLEAR REACTOR ZONE (CODE = EATS) will flash up on the screen; this code was also spelled out in blue jewels earlier in this mission (until they had been collected).

You will then have to walk to the right to collect a twenty-fifth key (which will for a tenth time always be present, and there are also six moving land mines in the centre of the screen); once you have done so, you will have to walk to the left and up to rescue a nineteenth hostage as three more troops of blue- and purple-suited axe-wielders come running towards you from the top, left side and right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will have to walk to the right as two troops of blue-suited axe-wielders burst out of two buildings on the right side of the screen and come running towards you - and once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, you will have to rescue a twentieth hostage and collect a twenty-sixth key (which will for an eleventh time always be present). Another black-and-yellow spider will now run down towards you from the top of the screen; once you've fired enough shots at him to kill him he will leave a second load of red spider eggs behind (which are again worth a bonus when collected so you again have to collect as many of them as possible before they hatch). Once the remaining eggs have hatched, the red spiders they contained will come bouncing down towards you - and once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them, a third troop of blue-suited axe-wielders will emerge from a pool of toxic waste on the right side of the screen ,and come running towards you. Once you've fired a shot at each of these to kill them (there are also eight barrels, which are worth a secret bonus when destroyed, and a seventeenth regular land mine at the top of the screen), you shall have to missile-strike the leaking nuclear reactor on the left side of the screen (walking into the puddles of toxic waste at its base shall not kill your soldier) to destroy it; once you have done so the text "SECRET PATH HERE" will flash up above the destroyed reactor if you collected enough keys (but if you did not, it will not).

If the secret path appeared and you took it, the text "DESTROY GENERAL AKHBOOB'S SECRET NUCLEAR CAPABILITY" shall appear on the screen, and you shall have to missile-strike three more nuclear reactors to destroy them (there's also an uncountable number of additional moving land mines to avoid stepping onto, an uncountable number of additional blue- and purple-suited axe-wielder troops to overcome, seven more boxes from which green-trousered flamethrowers shall emerge after exploding, twenty more hostages to rescue, eight more keys which shall for a twelfth time always be present to collect, twenty-six more barrels which shall send shots flying in eight directions after exploding, six more loads of jewels and American flags to collect, and a fifth ID tag to the left of an eighth flagpole which has the text "CHECKPOINT #9" below it as the eighth checkpoint was in the seventh bonus area, along with fifty more jeeps to destroy and six more regular land mines to avoid stepping onto); if you make it to the end, you will have to drop a bomb by the door in the wall to destroy it, and once you've done it, a load of additional hostages will run out of it as the text "BINGO! TRY PASSWORDS: MARK EATS FOOD" appears on the screen. Once you have rescued them all, an uncollectable time bomb will get dropped from above as the text "EXIT THIS AREA!" appears on the screen - and you will then have to walk up through that destroyed door to warp to the factory interior before the bomb explodes.

If the secret path appeared and you took it, the text "DESTROY GENERAL AKHBOOB'S SECRET NUCLEAR CAPABILITY" shall appear on the screen, and you shall have to missile-strike three more nuclear reactors to destroy them (there's also an uncountable number of additional moving land mines to avoid stepping onto, an uncountable number of additional blue- and purple-suited axe-wielder troops to overcome, seven more boxes from which green-trousered flamethrowers shall emerge after exploding, twenty more hostages to rescue, eight more keys which shall for a twelfth time always be present to collect, twenty-six more barrels which shall send shots flying in eight directions after exploding, six more loads of jewels and American flags to collect, and a fifth ID tag to the left of an eighth flagpole which has the text "CHECKPOINT #9" below it as the eighth checkpoint was in the seventh bonus area, along with fifty more jeeps to destroy and six more regular land mines to avoid stepping onto); if you make it to the end, you will have to drop a bomb by the door in the wall to destroy it, and once you've done it, a load of additional hostages will run out of it as the text "BINGO! TRY PASSWORDS: MARK EATS FOOD" appears on the screen. Once you have rescued them all, an uncollectable time bomb will get dropped from above as the text "EXIT THIS AREA!" appears on the screen - and you will then have to walk up through that destroyed door to warp to the factory interior before the bomb explodes.

However, if the secret path did not appear and you physically could not take it, more troops of blue and purple-suited axe-wielders will jump over the wall at the screen's top, emerge from the toxic waste puddles and pool on its left and right sides, and come running up towards you from its bottom; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, the text "WAVE WINNER. BONUS: 2500" will appear under the HUD of the player who killed the most axe-wielders. You will then have to walk to the right as you come to twenty-six more barrels which will send shots flying in eight directions when they explode (there are also five more hostages to rescue, five more keys which will for a thirteenth time always be present to collect, and two more boxes from which green-trousered flamethrowers will emerge after exploding) - and that toxic waste puddle at the base of the reactor will then spread to the left side of the screen as more troops of blue-suited axe-wielders emerge from it and jump the walls at the screen's top, right side and bottom. Once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them, the text "WAVE WINNER. BONUS: 2500" shall again appear under the HUD of the player who killed the most axe-wielders, as the text "TAKE ELEVATOR DOWN" flashes up below the door (in the top wall); once you have dropped a bomb by it to destroy it a load of additional hostages will come running out of it as another load of jewels and American flags appears in the centre of the screen. Once you rescue all the hostages and collect all the jewels and flags, the text of "YOU ARE AWESOME! GO AND HUNT DOWN GENERAL AKHBOOB!" will appear on the screen, as an uncollectable time bomb is dropped from above - and the text "EXIT THIS AREA!" shall then appear, leaving you to walk up through the destroyed door.
