Strategy

Usage

The following is a list of differences for the Spy Plane from the Radar Scan.

• Advantages:
  • Gives CP by revealing enemies (+10 CP per enemy revealed; limit is 100 CP).
  • Effective radius is greater than Radar Scan.

• Disadvantages:

  • Enemies are revealed lesser in the minimap.
  • More expensive than Radar Scan.
