This page is under construction. The following information may be incomplete. The Pod Wars game mode is still new, and is undergoing various balance changes and updates at the moment. Information may become outdated very quickly. In addition, this page is currently being worked on.

The Battleground

Yes, it is that big.

• Home Ships
  • NSV Pytheas
    • The NanoTrasen team's home base. It boasts a large hangar, a hi-tech medbay with an automatic cloner, a mining section to the west, and even a bar! The Pytheas is defended by an automated turret system which will shoot anyone without a valid NT ID.
  • Lodbrok
    • The base of operations for the Syndicate team. It has all of the same systems as the Pytheas, but the layout is significantly different.
• Control Points
  • Fortuna
    • The largest of the control points. Controlling this station grants access to an upgraded medbay capable of producing more powerful medicines than those on the home ships.
  • UVB-67
    • A claustrophobic arena, with little interior space and asteroid walls on 3 sides. Expect close-quarters combat here, as the tight walls and limited number of entry points mean that this outpost will be well-fortified against an assault.
  • NSV Reliant
    • Smack dab in the middle of the map is the Reliant. The location means that whichever team holds this ship has an easy forward base to push from, but also ensures that this point is hotly contested at all times.
• Minor Locations

I don't have good info on these places at the moment. Will update soon.

• • Mining Outpost
    • A fully functional mining outpost. Comes with mining gear, Nano-Fabs, and a mining magnet (some assembly required).
  • Cheesy Chuck's
    • A cozy restaurant with a serviceable kitchen, a fryer, and cheese. A LOT of cheese.
  • DORGUN'S
    • Everything you need for a functional space ship. Which... really isn't much at all.
  • Nancy's
    • A deserted trading post. The backroom contains some boxes of goods- mostly junk, but you might find something useful.
  • LS Greater Things Await You
    • A shattered wreck.
  • LS Brightwell
    • A compact ship equipped with a couple rechargers.

Equipment

Starter Gear

Name	Icon	Description
Pilot Helmet		A helmet to protect you from space (and your enemies).
Pilot Armor		An armored space suit to keep you warm in the cold of space, and keep you cool in the heat of battle.
SWAT Gloves		A set of armored gloves, built for close-quarters combat. They grant you some electrical and thermal resistance, and have a 20% chance to block disarms and shoves.
Blaster		A compact energy pistol which packs a punch. It's small enough to fit on your belt, but can't be crammed into your pockets. Your blaster deals 33 BURN per shot, and comes with a self-recharging cell- though with enough materials, you can get a better one. Blasters are biolocked to their owner's team, so you won't be able to fire blasters you steal from the enemy.
Survival Machete		A last-ditch weapon, it can be used to slice up your enemies once you've exhausted all other options. It also makes for a decent throwing knife.
