			===TransiT (TT)===
			'''Description:''' When getting the 100 score you could have a certain time to get to the Transmit flag, when flag is in possession you can choose two players from an opponents team to die adding 2 points to your team score.

			''Reason::'' You can probably get that many just running across the field.

			====Spread (SP)====
			'''Description:'''This flag will split your bullets into three. Two bullets will go at 45 degree angles away from you and the last will travel the normal trajectory. Careful about teamkills!

			''Reason::'' Custom plugin flag, will be better serviced by API fixes.


			====Boomerang (BR)====
			'''Description''' Your normal shot is changed to take a boomerang pattern once fired, killing anything caught in the firing line. You cant kill yourself with your own shots with this flag. Really long reload time, and relatively short range.

			''Reason::'' Shockwave does the same thing.


			====Mysteriously Mysterious (MY)====
			'''Description''' A random flag effect will be obtained, its up to the player to find out what flag it is that this flag has given them. WARNING You might get a bad flag from this!

			''Reason::'' Supid.


			====Flak (FK)====
			'''Description:''' Shots destroy enemy shots they hit. Super Bullets are immune.

			''Reason::'' Not possible, situationally useful.


			====Force Cannon (F)====
			'''Description:''' Any tanks in a cone-shaped area extending from the front of the tank are destroyed. Watch out for teammates.

			''Reason::'' Shockwave does the same thing.


			====Smite (SM)====
			'''Description:''' Tanks shot will create a shockwave, all killed tanks are considered your kills. Reload time is tripled.


			''Reason::'' Petty, can be done with a plugin.


			====Vertical Freedom (VF)====
			'''Description:''' Allows the tank to aim vertically.

			''Reason::'' No turrets


			====Negativity (NG)====
			'''Description''' Once picked up, one random bad flag effect will be obtained such as colorblindness, then a few seconds later, it will change to another bad flag effect such as reversecontrols, and so on.

			''Reason::'' Too confusing


			====Healing (HL)====
			'''Description''' Uses the thief-type ray. Shooting a target (friend or foe!) removes a bad flag if the target has one, or grants target a random good flag (or perhaps just shield) if they have none (while generally shots should kill, this inspires teamwork, and introduces an interesting new role for a team member to take). Optionally: must wait a configurable time before affecting any given target again.

			''Reason::'' BZFlag is not TF2. Too complex, shots kill.
