Destroy 10 Saucers Evolved game - Normal difficulty

How to unlock the Ensign achievement in Battlezone - Definitive Guide

Even though the goal description says "destroy 10 saucers Evolved game", this doesn't mean the achievement will pop-up after 10 saucer kills. It literally means you need to kill 11 saucers in one game (I have counted my kills while attempting to earn it). If you get game over, all your kill counts will reset back to 0 and you'll have to do it again.

This may sound like another hardest solo play achievement, but it's not as bad as it sounds. Saucers can be found through the battle zone by hearing the sound; if you hear it, you can tell it's a saucer, so try look for it while hearing it. To ensure that you try to kill these, make sure you're in a safe zone, where there's quite a lot of empty space.

While you're at it, try to avoid the bullets being fired by regular tank. If it's a super tank (which either appears rarely or scored up to 30k), your only best hope is to turn around before it blasts you into pieces since they love to shoot you from behind, plus their bullet moves faster than the regular tank bullet. If you see the missile coming towards you, do NOT attempt to aim and shoot at the saucer as your bullet reloads in seconds if you missed a shot; instead, focus on the missile until there is no more.

You need to practice quite a lot in evolved mode until you're getting good at this. Missiles can be your worst nightmare if you don't know their weaknesses. There is an existing video on YouTube (recorded by TodayisForgotten) on how to kill missiles in an easy way in evolved mode. You can also find some hints and tips for BattleZone on other websites (strategies worked well on both evolved and classic modes).

After getting a good amount of practice, this achievement may take several tries. If you think this solution didn't help out, please make a comment on how I can improve and make it better.

Head into the evolved game and realize that the classic game completely blows when compared to this one.

After you’ve done that you’ll have to kill ten saucers. The saucer is the enemy that is shaped like an oval and floats around the area doing nothing. You can go to “Help and Options” at the menu and then see a picture of one if you still don’t understand.

The main trick to killing ten saucers is simply shooting them when they spawn. Every time you kill one the respawn timer for the next is reset, so killing them sooner will cause the next to spawn sooner. Survive long enough and you should be able to pick this one up quickly.
