Each Combat Areas can have up to three different mission categories with different difficulties: normal, emergency, and midnight.

Except for rare ~~case~~ like Area 0, normal mission ~~category~~ have 6 missions, with ~~last~~ mission being a boss fight.

Except for rare cases like Area 0, normal mission categories have 6 missions, with the final mission being a boss fight.

Emergency ~~category~~ have 4 missions, ~~that~~ are based on maps from normal missions, with harder enemies. ~~Last mission~~ of emergency ~~category is~~ also a boss fight.

Emergency categories have 4 missions, which are based on maps from normal missions, with harder enemies. The final missions of the emergency categories will also have a boss fight.

Night-Time ~~battle is the mission~~ where the echelon will fight against enemies in complete dark, night ~~map~~. Unlike Regular and Emergency ~~Mission~~, in order to complete night-time ~~battle~~ player must eliminate all enemies in map ~~with~~ turn ~~limitation~~ or it will result in mission failure. Instead of dropping T-Dolls, Night-time ~~battle~~ mostly drop an equipment. Several of the night-time battle ~~map~~ provide an exclusive equipment ~~drop~~ that can only be equipped by specified T-Dolls.

Night-Time battles are missions where the echelon will fight against enemies in complete dark, night maps. Unlike Regular and Emergency Missions, in order to complete night-time battles the player must eliminate all enemies in map within the turn limitations or it will result in mission failure. Instead of dropping T-Dolls, Night-time battles mostly drop equipment. Several of the night-time battle maps provide exclusive equipment drops that can only be equipped by specified T-Dolls.

There are many things need to be cared in night-time mission.

* No matter how much ~~your~~ regular Echelon Combat Effectiveness you have, it is not applied in night-time ~~mission~~ as the echelon combat effectiveness ~~are~~ divided into regular CE and Night CE. Therefore, you must meet the Night Combat Effectiveness requirement in order to clear the map. Otherwise you'll be ~~struggled~~ against most enemies, including armored enemies.

Therefore, you must meet the Night Combat Effectiveness requirement in order to clear the map. Otherwise you'll be struggling against most enemies, including armored enemies.

* Unlike regular ~~mission~~, in night-time ~~battle~~ the T-dolls will fight in the complete dark where enemy location are concealed. In this case, putting a single HG is highly recommended to provide an illumination for ~~echelon even downed~~.

* Unlike regular missions, in night-time battles the T-dolls will fight in the complete dark where enemy location are concealed. Since this case, putting a single HG is highly recommended to provide an illumination for echelons.

* Thus, it is virtually impossible to do night-time ~~mission~~ without HG class assigned ~~for~~ every ~~echelons~~ assigned to mission.

* Thus, it is virtually impossible to do night-time missions without a HG class assigned to every echelon assigned to a mission.

* Except for event maps, Night-time mission ~~has~~ NO ~~Head Quaters~~. Players ~~just~~ have to defeat all enemies on time.

* Except for event maps, Night-time mission have NO Headquarters. Players simply have to defeat all enemies on time.

* In night-time mission, a node called radar provide illumination for 2 nodes. Radar nodes are very useful to reveal enemy locations, so protecting the nodes is ~~the~~ must.

* Except for few cases, night-time mission normally has no boss unit.

* Player are unable to call reinforcement in the Landing Zones if there is not light source. Therefore, putting T-dolls with HG near Landing Zone node are recommended.

* During night-time battle, all echelons accuracy rate has greatly suffered for 90%. This problem can be solved by equipping Nightvision device to mitigate the accuracy penalty in night-time mission. Also, a handgun with flare skill is ~~very~~ recommended as it will provide up to 100% accuracy for echelon.

* ARMORED ~~enemy~~ can be in night-time mission maps. Armored enemies takes less damage, based on their armor stat, making them very hard to defeat without great care.

* ARMORED enemies can be found in night-time mission maps. Armored enemies takes less damage, based on their armor stat, making them very hard to defeat without great care.

* Only MG and RF (except for few T-Dolls such as [[6P62]]) can equip Armor Piercing Ammunition to counter armor stat. AP Ammo reduces effectiveness of armor, based on AP stat. (if enemy has 80 armor, AP stat of 80 or higher will completely ignore armor.)

* Armored ~~enemy~~ normally ~~has~~ ZERO evasion, meaning that accuracy penalty is ~~meaningless~~ if echelons are fighting against armored unit.

* Armored enemies normally have ZERO evasion, meaning that accuracy penalty is mitigated if echelons are fighting against armored unit.

* Except for very rare cases in event mission, non-boss enemies with armor are never grouped with non-armored enemy.

* Regular, non-armored enemies in night-time mission, HAVE evasion, and it is normally much higher than non-night time missions.

Line 110:

* There are two type of enemy that requires great care: tarantula and Scouts.

* Scouts in night-time map has dangerously high evasion stat. ~~The~~ T-doll with Grenade Launcher, HE Grenade is highly recommended ~~to fight~~ against scouts, as explosives ignores evasion.

* Scouts in night-time map has dangerously high evasion stat. A T-doll with Grenade Launcher, HE Grenade is highly recommended in fights against scouts, as explosives ignores evasion.

* Tarantula is a basically an armored dinergate. It has zero evasion and very low health stat. However, ~~unlike their cute(?) appearance~~ they have extremely high armor and damage with high accuracy. They are extremely dangerous and hard to deal with, since Tarantulas will shock T-Dolls as a swarm, with extremely fast approaching speed. (Tanks will melt within few second if Tarantulas manages to shock tank line before tarantulas getting wiped out.)

* Use of MG is highly recommended in fight against Tarantula. MG ~~class~~ can use AP ammo, and they have huge bust, making themselves an effective counter against armored shock units like Tarantula.

* Guards ~~has~~ zero evasion and Jaegers ~~has~~ almost ~~meaningless~~ evasion, even at nigh-time mission. They can be defeated with T-Dolls that cannot equip night vision. However, ~~normally~~ expect other enemy classes combined with ~~Guard~~ and ~~Jaeger~~, especially Scout + Jaeger combination.
