Star Wars: Republic Commando: Difference between revisions

* [[Deadly Gas]]: After being forced to return to the detention level and surviving a Trandoshan ambush, Delta Squad activates the detention block's security systems, resulting in it being pumped full of [[Deadly Gas]] that comes in a rather interesting shade of mauve. Delta Squad remains unaffected, as their helmets protect them from that sort of stuff. Their enemies, however...

{{quote|'''Scorch:''' I guess we know how long Trandoshans can hold their breath.}}

* [[Deflector Shields]]: The members of Delta Squad are equipped with personal shields (which, curiously, never seem to be employed in the novels). Destroyer Droids/Droidekas have their signature bubble shields. Super battle droids can also occasionally be seen employing what appears to be a personal shield from their arm, usually when faced with grenades.

* [[Diabolus Ex Machina]]: At the end of the game, your squad has taken out a massive separatist gunship and are ready for evac. {{spoiler|Then, out of nowhere and offscreen, Sev reports he's under attack and you lose contact with him. Despite the protests of your squad, your commander refuses to let you rescue him, and you all get on your evac shuttle, leaving him to die.}} It's not a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] or any other meaningful death, just a sour note to make your victory bittersweet.

* [[Land Mine Goes Click]]: In addition to emitting an audible beeping noise before exploding, a land mine is equipped with bright LEDs. If it's touched by the player's crosshairs, a red dome showing its radius appears, joined with a verbal warning by Boss or one of the other commandos concerning its presence. Furthermore, a mine only explodes if the player or his teammates are ''standing'' within its radius, allowing them to crouch-walk up to it in order to disarm it.

* [[Large Ham]]: The Trandoshan Heavy Assault Mercenaries. Oddly enough, this is telegraphed by the subtitles designating them as "Trando HAMs."

* [[Let's Split Up, Gang!]]:

** This is done once at the beginning and then about two-thirds of the way through the Geonosis campaign.
