	When a missile embankment depletes, the next bank down will inherit the reload timer of the missile type that just depleted. This is crucial to remember when wielding the Harbinger: if the next bank down is a second set of Harbingers, you will have to wait 30 seconds until you can fire them. If there is a bank filled with something else, fire the set above it before accessing the other set of Harbingers.}}		When a missile embankment depletes, the next bank down will inherit the reload timer of the missile type that just depleted.

	Theoretically, the Tsunami should be stronger because it has a matter-antimatter warhead, so all the matter is turned to energy, thus resulting in a bigger boom. With fission and fusion, there's leftover matter that's not turned into energy. As the Tsunami is the first foray into antimatter weaponry, however, it's likely it's not very efficient.

This is due to balancing reasons, as unshielded fighters get destroyed at once when within the explosion range. This special version, named "Harbinger#End" in the tables, also moves faster than the standard variant.
