IRON NEST: Heavy Turret Simulator offers 21 different ammunition types to use in your guns, and no two of them operate the same. During the first couple of missions, you can simply fire your HE shells and complete the tasks.

Here are some essential tips to keep in mind.
- When the target is quite far, you have to use shells that allow you to use three or more charges.
- Not every target has to be killed. Sometimes, use shells that don’t do any damage, like TEAR and WP.
- The blast radius is also key before you shoot your guns. Firing ammunition with a higher blast radius can also kill your allies.
- Never lose track of Requisition Cost, and more so if you’re looking to get Gold Medals on your missions.
