Usage & Description[]

Major kong shell

The main rocket will fly straight for a short period of time before it starts to lose altitude at a fixed rate. Once it starts losing altitude the rocket will oscillate from side to side in a sinusoidal pattern. Hitting small targets is easiest at short distances. Once the rocket starts snaking and sinking, it makes hitting small and medium sized targets much harder.

If the rocket does not hit an enemy, it will stick to a surface for a few seconds before exploding.

Trivia[]

  • The name and flavor text are a reference to the 1964 film Dr. Strangelove where two hydrogen bombs are used to attack a Soviet missile site with one having the flavor text written on it and is ridden by a "Major T. J. "King" Kong" when it is dropped.
