'''Orders Received''' is a [[Power (BCS)|Basic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. ~~It allows the player to target~~ a [[Military]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] or [[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]] to instantly ~~reload its Ammo~~ and grant it 2 ~~extra~~ Ammo ~~that disappears at the end of the turn the card is played~~. The instant reload ~~counts for~~ On Reload effects ~~as well as~~ Striker Jones' Ammo Stores ability. It can only be ~~used in~~ [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]] ~~decks~~.

'''Orders Received''' is a [[Power (BCS)|Basic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. When it targets a [[Military]] [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] or [[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]], the card instantly reloads the target's ammo and grant it 2 [[Temporary Ammo]]. The instant reload triggers On Reload effects and Striker Jones' Ammo Stores ability. It can only be added to [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]] [[deck]]s.

The card artwork depicts a [[Cash Drop Sniper]] saluting to Striker Jones while they're at an arid desert.

==Tips==

*Orders Received is a stronger [[Quick Reload]] for one extra Gold ~~on a Military Monkey or Bomb Shooter~~, but limited to Striker Jones. Use on low-ammo ~~Monkeys~~ like [[Crippling Sniper]], [[~~The Big One~~ (BCS)|~~The Big One~~]], ~~and~~ [[~~Bouncing Bullet~~ (BCS)|~~Bouncing Bullet~~]]~~~~ to output very high damage versus an opponent's ~~high~~-~~HP rushes~~.

*Orders Received is a stronger [[Quick Reload]] for one extra Gold, but is limited to [[Military]] Monkeys and Bomb Shooters in Striker Jones decks. Use on low-ammo, long-reload targets like [[Crippling Sniper]], [[Bouncing Bullet (BCS)|Bouncing Bullet]], or [[Missile Launcher (BCS)|Missile Launcher]] to output very high damage versus an opponent's rushes.

*Like Quick Reload, Orders Received can be used on [[Cash Drop Sniper]] ~~for a burst of~~ Gold alongside damage, though this tactic is only really impactful in the early-game.

**[[MOAB Eliminator (BCS)|MOAB Eliminator]] especially synergizes with this card in the late-game, allowing it to destroy multiple blimps in one [[turn]]. At max Gold, a placed MOAB Eliminator can be paired with Order's Received in one turn.

*This card more efficient when used on Monkeys that have spent all their Ammo to get the extra Ammo from reloading.

**Besides [[Shell Shock Mortar]], this card is less effective on Mortars than other targets; due to their attacks always happening at the end of the turn; they usually have full Ammo whenever the player is able to play this card.

*All applicable On Reload effects synergize well with Orders Received.

**With [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]]'s Ammo Stores, Orders Received can be used to add even more Temporary Ammo, which can really assist against [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]] battles or against tough situations in general.

**Like Quick Reload, Orders Received can be used on [[Cash Drop Sniper]] to partially offset the Gold cost alongside dealing extra damage, though this tactic is only really impactful in the early-game.

*Orders Received is recommended in [[Boss Battle (BCS)|Boss Battle]]s for decks the centralize on Monkeys. It pairs well on applicable Monkeys that work well with [[Berserker Brew (BCS)|Berserker Brew]] synergies. Additionally, it can be used in a pinch during Stage 1 [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]] for [[Armor Piercing]] Monkeys to counter a highly armored [[Rock Bloon (BCS)|Rock Bloon]].

**Missile Launcher + Berserker Brew + two Orders Received costs 19 Gold, while Missile Launcher + three Orders Received costs 17 Gold.

**Two Berserker Brews + two Orders Received costs 20 Gold, and this combo can be used if an applicable Monkey is about to reload next turn.

Orders Received costs 1 Gold less starting in Version 6.4 to make the card more viable in any Striker deck and less of a commitment compared to board clears that Striker would use instead.<ref name="odysseyTOS-6.4">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5RCsiqq--s|title=6.4 Tester Commentary - Bloons Card Storm|publisher=YouTube|author=OdysseyTOS}}</ref> Although not stated in the commentary, the Gold cost decrease is enough to open up more combos with Orders Received, letting combos such as [[Missile Launcher (BCS)|Missile Launcher]] + [[Berserker Brew (BCS)|Berserker Brew]] + two Orders Received (19 Gold) become now affordable, specifically for Dreadbloon battles, as well as opening up [[MOAB Eliminator (BCS)|MOAB Eliminator]] + Order's Received in one turn without additional Gold-earning cards.
