To destroy the biomek base, we had to resort to our vehicle's "hazard mode," the most powerful attack that any vehicle can perform. In the case of human vehicles, hazard mode ties in to the humans' research into energy shield technology. Since Auto Assault takes place on a futuristic version of Earth that has been torn apart by alien invasions and unhealthy amounts of radiation, the human race (one of three playable races in the game, the other two being mutants and biomeks) has equipped each of its vehicles with energy shields that can be "reversed" in hazard mode, which causes the shields to erupt into highly damaging ion streams--coils of bright-purple energy that latch onto any nearby enemies and damage them severely.
