Campaign Mode
Campaign Mode is one of the gamemodes in Rebel Inc., aside from the main game and scenarios.
In this mode, your mission is to stabilise an entire country by progressing through five individual regions. If there is even one loss (or 2 in the same region, if the Player Tactic "Combat Simulator" is active), the entire campaign fails.
Campaign Mode is available on PC after you beat Saffron Fields, while on Mobile, you'll have to pay 4.99 USD.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
Campaign Mode offers the same gameplay as the main game, with the following changes:
Modifiers[edit | edit source]
After passing each map, the player gets to pick a Player Tactic (1 star after the first and third, 2 star after the second and fourth), while the insurgents get to pick Insurgent Tactics after the first and third. These persist for the entire campaign (the most recent insurgent tactic may be removed if the Player Tactic "Counter Intelligence" appears). Each map has its own set of 4 Map Features, including a major and three minor ones.
If the player is playing on Casual difficulty, the "Casual Mode" modifier overrides one minor feature on all maps, leaving the player with only two of them. Likewise, some of the aforementioned modifiers don't appear on Mega Brutal.
The first two maps start with a number of Government-Controlled stable zones diminishing in quantity, while the last three would contain insurgent-controlled zones increasing in numbers, and if allied forces enter there before the insurgency starts, the insurgency is accelerated. (Skip 10 turns for each turn soldier present on red zones. Up to 20-30 turns for each soldier enter red zones)
Maps may randomly contain Soldier Upgrade Depots, and can spawn Caves.
Governor/Advisor exhaustion[edit | edit source]
Governors and Advisors will be exhausted upon completing a map with them. Any Advisor can only be used once. Exhausted governors are usable, but each additional use stacks up to three instances of these penalties:
- Less starting Intel (Reduced to -3/-8/-15. This is not observable on Mega Brutal without Player Tactics that provide extra intel like Intelligence Gathering or Mass Intelligence Gathering because by default only the HQ zone has intel)
- Less starting funds (Reduced to -11$/-32$/-58$)
- Reduced annual budget. (Down to -4$/-8$/-12$ pre year)
- Increased initial insurgent capability. (Up to 1.2/1.5/1.75 times than normal)
Governors and Advisors do not recover, forcing one to seek different options for each map. The Espresso Shots Player Tactic disables this mechanic, allowing indefinite reuse without penalty.
Exclusive events[edit | edit source]
Some events (mostly crisis) can happen while playing a map inside the campaign. Each end result can depend on whether the player buys the correct number of initiatives:
- [1] If player doesn't buy any, Support Level drops.
- [2] If player does buy an initiative, Support Level increases slightly.
- [3] If player does buy the full branch, Support Level increases, alongside a 4-5 reputation boost.
Below is the list of crises:
| Event | Initiative(s) needed to unlock [2] | Initiative(s) needed to unlock [3] |
|---|---|---|
| Cholera outbreak in multiple region | Basic Sanitation initiative | Advanced Sanitation initiative |
| Economic crisis impacts multiple regions | At least 2 Development Initiatives | At least 5 Development Initiatives |
| Phone line demand spikes in multiple regions for 'Talent Search' | Telecoms I initiative | Telecoms II initiative |
Nearby region stabilised[edit | edit source]
When the player has stabilized other regions in the past, they will support the current region of player by giving money and reputation in the exact turns that the previous region has stabilized.
The money and reputation given to the current region depends on how much money and reputation are left when the player wins the previous region. (Min is +$1 and +1 reputation; e.g., when a player wins a region with 100$ and 150 reputation left, they will support the other regions about +21$ and 22 reputation)
