# Battle (PVE)

### Overview

Battle (PVE) is a strategic game mode which requires players to select a load out and then encounter a boss. The player can choose to fight that boss or re-roll for another one.\
Scenarios include an Enemy Boss Zombie and an Environment such as an Airfield, Woods, Hospital etc each environment will be beneficial towards certain attack styles.

### **Mechanics**

The player chooses their Loadout much more carefully than before, taking into consideration the characteristics of the Weapons or Shields. 

Weapons now have attack style and a Damage stat. Shields have a defence style and a defence stat. 

Stats for the Boss Zombies will be rolled in a pseudo-random way, based on the location chosen.

The player then must decide to either fight the boss or go hunt for a different one.

### **Attack Style Cards**

To supplement your chosen Loadout, players can select an Attack Style Card:

* **Assassin** -  Bonus toward Stealth attack
* **Assault** - Bonus toward Damage attack
* **Overwatch** - Bonus toward Range attack

Attack Style cards will be available at Brutus Bazaar.
