RPG Shop
~Compounds and their accessories~
These are the sites you can purchase from which to stage an operation or guard yourself, as well as all the little goodies you may attach to them.
Installations
These are territory controlling sites that you purchase for a said amount of money. They each have a specific function described below.
Fortress
The Gundam equivalent of a military base, a Fortress is a symbol of power wherever it is constructed and allows you to control the nearby terrain. A Fortress is essentially a group of factories, warehouses, barracks, hangars and such surrounded by a large, thick concrete wall. Fixed defenses can be purchased as well to increase the ability of your base to survive an attack.
Workers: 2x Zaku Tank
Armaments: 4x AA machinegun turret
Built-in accessories: Cellblock, Repair bay, Airfield, Hanger, Command Bunker, Radar/Transmissions Tower.
Cost: To build a basic, surface fortification will require 1,000 RP.
Space Fortress
A large, moveable fortification in space, made out of a large hollowed out asteroid. The surface of this fortress is covered with weapons turrets and the thick outer surface is impossible to breach with anything less than the most powerful Mega Particle Cannons or missiles. It requires a weapon of mass destruction to destroy a space fortress, such as a Solar Ray-type weapon.
Workers: 4x Zaku Worker, 4x Zaku Head
Armaments: 8x Small Mega Particle Cannon Turret, 20x AA machinegun turret, 4x SAM battery, 1x Large Mega Particle Cannon turret x 1
Move Time: A Space Fortress can move from place to place thanks to large fusion engines, though it requires roughly twice as long as it would take a mobile suit or conventional warship.
Built-in accessories: Cellblock, Spaceport, Repair bay, Hanger, Command Section, Radar/Transmissions station.
Cost: To purchase and construct this fortress will cost 5,000 RP
Facilities
Facilities are smaller compounds, that, while often proving their worth, are not considered major bases enough to control territory.
Fortification
In essence, a mini-base. They may only be placed on earth, and are little more than a hanger for mobile suit placement, and an airfield. They have no walls guarding it, no heavily armored buildings, etc, but are good for the economist, or somebody wanting a cheap, quick, stopgap measure to guard something.
Workers: 1x Zaku Tank
Armaments: None.
Built-in accessories: Airfield, Hanger, Radar/Transmissions Tower, makeshift HQ.
Cost: Cheap to the max, this costs 250 RP.
Mine
The Mine is a fairly straightforward operation, yet it is an excellent money maker. Mines are built and deployed on their own, or inside a base, as an add-on. They slowly suck minerals, Helium 3, ore, Vespine Gas, crude oil, Tiberium (there’s a joke in here somewhere. :P), or whatever other local asset out of the ground, sell it to local populations (or in the case of a fortress on the Moon or another planet, back to the Earth), and bring income to it’s owner. Exactly how much you will receive depends on what is being mined, but you will get an average of around 100 RP per week. Generally speaking, Arctic Mines get a bit more revenue, whereas Desert Mines pull slightly less. Details are described in the sidebar.
Workers: 1x Zaku Tank
Armaments: None.
Built-in accessories: makeshift HQ.
Cost: To become a modern ‘49er takes 250 RP.
Asteroid Mine
A smaller version of the Space Fortress, this large symbol of economic might is used for a much different reason. Passages colonize its interior, making it easy to mine valuable ores from inside. While it only holds an extremely miniscule mobile suit and ship bay, it can give its owner substantial amounts of cash, raking in 200 RP a week in harvested ores and minerals. Due to the activity on a mine, few fixed defenses can be placed on an active Mine, but you can always move your Asteroid Mines to orbit around friendly colony or Space Fortress for protection. An important thing to note is that these still exist after being strip-mined, and can then be used as a sort of miniature space fortress (In other words, you can now mount your own fixed defenses on it). Asteroid Mines can move, although at the same rather slow rate as a Space Colony. As you may have guessed, they can be fitted with a Colony Booster for faster movement.
Workers: 2x Zaku Head
Armaments: None
Built-in accessories: Small Spaceport
Cost: The ultimate piece of money-making equipment costs a hefty 1,000 RP but will likely pay for itself several times over.
“Sealed” Space Colony
Similar to the standard colony, the “Sealed” colony was build primarily in the Zeon homeland of Side Three. Unlike a conventional colony, the Zeon Sealed Colonies had no windows, enabling them to house up to ten million people, while light was provided giant fluorescent arrays. These make the Sealed Colony more expensive to construct, but make it nearly immune to the effects most nuclear weapons, and also more difficult to destroy in general, as there are no weak windows to aim for. All other aspects are the same as a regular colony.
Workers: 2x Zaku Worker, 2x Zaku Head.
Armaments: None
Move Time: A colony can be slowly moved at a rate of one-fourth that of normal mobile suits and warships. This means that a colony takes four days to move what a ship would do in one.
Built-in accessories: Spaceport, Repair Bay, Hanger. The economy of the civilians living inside the colony give the owner 100 RP per week due to taxes and whatnot.
Cost: Sealed space colonies are a bit more expensive than normal ones. 1,250 RP
Fortress Locations
To facilitate your reign over a planet, different types of fortresses need to be built at various locations. These display all of the possible locations of which you might build your bases and the expense you’ll need to go to so that the fortresses may be outfitted.
Note: All bases can be seashore bases for an additional 50 RP. Such bases are on the sea.
Arctic/Antarctic
In order to facilitate your rule in frozen tundra type areas, these specialized fortresses will be necessary. Outfitted with much more insulation on structures, better anti-freeze systems and other such details, fixed defenses can function well enough here, but performance of mobile suits and mobile armors will be hampered. Defending player-controlled mobile suits and armors can be outfitted with gear to survive such an environment, though only specialized grunt suits can operate at peak efficiency.
Advantages: Cold Climate mobile suits can work wonders here while other, standard-issue suits will take a beating.
Disadvantages: Only Cold Climate grunt suits can work at peak efficiency here. Standard mobile suits will grind to a halt in the cold.
Cost: An extra 500 RP will be required for Arctic/Antarctic outfitting.
Desert/Tropical
In need of extra cooling systems and other such gear, fortresses in desert climates and on barren worlds will need these extra outfittings. Again, defending player-controlled mobile suits can be outfitted with gear to survive the extreme environment.
Advantages: Mobile suits designed for these extreme environments work well here.
Disadvantages: Sand can badly clog up vents and weapons on conventional mobile suits and mobile armors.
Cost: An extra 500 RP is necessary for desert/tropical outfittings.
Mountain
Built into the side of a mountain, mountain fortresses are almost as hard to capture as underground bases, though easier to destroy. Attacking mobile suits will have to scale the mountain itself all the while being hailed by machinegun and mega particle cannon fire. Also, thanks to thinning atmosphere, aircraft cannot function with their usual lethality.
Advantages: A mountain fortress is just as hard to attack as an underground base but for a fraction of the cost. Enemy aircraft will be restricted and land forces will more slowly.
Disadvantages: Like regular fortresses, large colony-destroying beam weapons can still destroy these fortresses, and your own aircraft will have a hard time.
Cost: You will need 500 RP extra to build your fortress into the side of a mountain.
Naval (Floating)
Essentially a gigantic ship, a floating Naval Fortress floats on the surface of the ocean, either anchored to the ocean floor, right along the edge of a beach, or mindlessly wandering the seven seas. From here, submarines, marine mobile suits and marine mobile armors can call home.
Advantages: These fortresses make controlling the seas much more feasible and make attack from conventional mobile suits nearly impossible. Submarines and marine mobile armors may dock here to be repaired and re-armed.
Disadvantages: The large pontoons that keep these structures afloat are excellent targets for mobile armors and submarines that manage to get close enough. Also, although conventional mobile suits can be deployed here and function as part of a defense, consider them lost if they fall in the water.
Cost: An extra 500 RP will be required in addition to the cost of the Fortress itself to outfit it for Naval duty.
Naval (Underwater)
Unlike their floating brethren, these fortresses are actually built as pressurized buildings on the bottom of the ocean with tubes connecting them. Marine mobile suits have even more of an advantage here. However, due to the nature of this location, only Depth Charge launchers and Torpedo batteries can be constructed.
Advantages: Puts marine mobile suits at a ridiculous advantage against assaulting forces and is also increasingly hard to destroy from the surface. Depth charges from the surface are almost useless, meaning that up-close-and-personal actions will have to take place.
Disadvantages: Several good, solid torpedo hits could cause a massive depressurization resulting in a fortresses’ destruction. Also, only SAM batteries and depth charge launchers can be deployed for fixed defenses.
Cost: An extra 600 RP needs to be added to the cost of the actual fortress to make it underwater ready.
Sky/Atmospheric
Using multiple Minovski-craft compressors, much like those used on Zeon airborne mobile armors, it is possible to levitate a fortress in the sky, allowing it reign over the wild blue yonder. Airborne mobile suits, mobile armors and aircraft have an advantage here, and only aircraft or mobile suits capable of EXTENDED flight can reach these bases. SAM launchers are especially useful here.
Advantages: Allows airborne mobile suits and mobile armors as well as aircraft to be ridiculously effective, raking through enemy lines. SAM launchers are very useful, as are machinegun turrets.
Disadvantages: Like the floating Naval Fortress, the Minovski craft compressors are good targets. Once destroyed, Sky Fortresses quickly become piles of rubble on the ground. Once again, conventional mobile suits can act in concert with defenses here, though they will be lost if they are knocked off.
Cost: An additional 600 RP will be required to outfit a fortress with M-craft compressors.
Underground
Perhaps one of the hardest to attack fortresses available, an underground fortress is built completely underground, save for a few camouflaged gates. Pop-up accessories are added to all fixed defenses, allowing them to pop-up out of the ground and surprise enemy units. Even if enemy units manage to locate the entrances to an underground fortress, it will still be hard to take through winding passages and tight corridors.
Advantages: These bases CANNOT be destroyed by anything less than a well-placed tactical nuclear warhead or a full-blown colony drop. Your mobile suits have a much better chance at defending this fortress while enemy suits will be at a gaping disadvantage.
Disadvantage: There’s only one really… Cost! These fortresses are expensive.
Cost: 1,000 RP will be required in addition to the cost of the fortress itself.
Combination
Perhaps the most expensive thing in the world of fortresses, you can combine multiple fortress locations for the ultimate defendable position, though it will be very expensive.
Cost: The final cost will be the cost of the fortress itself, location one, location two etc, and an additional 500 RP.
Note: Don’t be a jackass. Some locations obviously cannot be combined. For example, an Arctic Base and a Desert Base. However, a Mountain Base and an Underground Base can be combined, making for a virtually indestructible fortification. (N.O.R.A.D.! Woo!)
Base Add-ons:
These little things are all the nifty additional buildings your fortress might want to have.
Trenches
Simple and affordable, mobile suit sized Trenches can be constructed to give your MS defences just a little bit more surviveability. Unlike most things, Trenches can be purchased while your compound is under seige, albeit at double price.
Cost: 100 RP, or 200 if seiged.
Cellblock
Though it is standard on most fortifications, these still need to be here. A Cellblock is essentially a modernized prison where unruly people, including captured enemy forces and kept until they are either released or escape.
Cost: This add-on costs 300 RP.
Targeting Facility
A complex radar, sonar, infrared and audio tracking station, these facilities stay in the fairly safe portions of a land Fortress for protection and to provide targeting data to friendly Howitzers. Having a Targeting Facility on hand allows the accuracy of a Howitzer to be increased from a pithy 50% to a much superior 75%.
Armament: Radar, sonar, infrared and audio tracking equipment.
Cost: To deploy a complex targeting facility will cost 400 RP.
Colony Booster
To move your colony quicker or to initiate a colony drop, you need one of these boosters. Simply a large rocket that latches onto the backside of your colony, the Booster is an essential part of all colony movement and allows your colony to move at half the speed of a regular mobile suit, rather than one fourth.
Cost: To get a Booster you will need 750 RP.
Spaceport
Necessary for construction on terrestrial fortresses, the Spaceport allows regular space warships and mobile suits to land, refuel, and be equipped with single-use boosters to get back into space again, allowing otherwise space-bound vessels and mobile suits to enter Earth. Both may move off the earth and moon via a spaceport even during a siege, but any snipers in the besieging fleet will get a free shot off.
Cost: You need 750 RP for this add-on. Comes with one HLV for transporting.
Nuclear Charge
The ultimate in “Base Insurance," this is actually an Inter-Continental-Ballistic-Missile with the rocket section removed and stripped down to the bare essentials. This charge sits in the middle of a Fortress in wait to be activated. After the entire base’s defenses have been destroyed, this charge is activated and will detonate when a mobile suit, tank or even infantry triumphantly march into the base.
Armament: Thermonuclear warhead x 1
Cost: As they are the ultimate in base insurance, they are also the ultimate in cost: 3,000 RP.
War Factory
Those of you familiar with Westwood’s Command & Conquer line of computer games will be familiar with this structure. The War Factory, once constructed, can harvest the resources needed and then produce any product in the shop. Location is important too. A War Factory in an Arctic Base can build Cold Climate mobile suits, while a Naval Base can build Marine Mobile Suits and Naval Warships. How many can be produced in a one-week production run is based on cost.
War Factories can make 500 RPs worth of mecha each week (added on Sundays). If you wish to build something that is more than 500 RP, it will take multiple weeks until you've paid off the cost of the weapon.
Cost: The War Factory is very expensive, but it will pay for itself in time. 5,000 RP.
~Fixed Defenses~
These are all defensive gun emplacements for placing on your Compound, to defend it.
AA Machinegun turret
While only remotely effective against mobile suits, these open-ended turrets are inexpensive.
Armament: Four-barreled 45mm rapid-fire machinegun
Cost: These lightweight turrets are cheap enough for even the stingiest commanders. 9 RP.
Depth Charge launcher
For anti-submarine warfare, the Depth Charge launcher is the best there is.
Armament: Two-tube Depth Charge discharger
Cost: The deployment of a depth charge launcher will require 22 RP.
Note: Depth Charge Launchers can only be deployed on a floating Naval Fortress or Shore Fortress/Fortification.
Surface-to-Air missile battery
A small AA missile turret, this is more effective than the machineguns, but also more expensive.
Armament: Four-tube SAM missile launcher
Cost: These SAM batteries cost 27 RP.
Anti-MS Cannon
A cheap, conventional ground to ground cannon turret.
Armament: Two-barreled 180mm cannon
Cost: Each Cannon will require 45 RP.
Land/Naval Mines
A minefield complete with one outfitted Zaku II to deploy them.
Armament: Minefield + 1 Zaku minelayer to deploy them.
Armor Rating: 7
Maneuverability rating: S-5.5 G-5 A-1.5 W-2.5
Speed Rating: S-6.5 G-4.5 A-3 W-2
Cost: To deploy a minefield and its tending vehicles and vessels will cost 72 RP.
Space Mines
Floating spacemines, also with their own minelayer.
Armament: Zaku Minelayer x1 +minefield
Armor Rating: 7
Maneuverability rating: S-5.5 G-5 A-1.5 W-2.5
Speed Rating: S-6.5 G-4.5 A-3 W-2
Cost: To deploy a space mine field and its tending vehicles and vessels will cost 72 RP.
Mega Particle Cannon turret
Smaller and for taking out mobile suits, the ultimate in AA technology.
Armament: Mega Particle Cannon
Cost: Since they’re smaller, standard-issue Mega Particle Cannons cost 90 RP
880mm Howitzer
The ultimate in artillery weaponry, the Howitzer is perfect for anti-Siege warfare.
Armament: 880mm rifled howitzer (S)
Cost: These big suckers cost a whopping 270 RP.
Note: Accuracy can be increased with the purchase of a targeting facility.
Large Mega Particle Cannon turret
A large, slow moving, anti-ship Mega Particle Cannon.
Armament: Two-barreled Large Mega Particle Cannon (S)
Cost: Each Mega Particle Cannon turret will require 270 RP.
Space Defence Platform
Built into an Asteroid, this is the best thing you can get for defending a Shoal Zone
Armament: 12x 2-barrel beam gun turrets, 2x heavy rocket launcher turret.
Armor Rating: 12
Cost: 450
~Mobile Weapons~
Kinda self-explanatory, isn't it?
Vehicles
Tanks have always been an integral part of the battlefield, and even in the age of mobile suits, they still have their uses. These are best used as cheap fire-support while your mobile suits do all the actual close combat work.

The strange add-ons, the ones you can't buy, are purely for the point of being strategically blown up. Here is what they are for.
Command Bunker - A heavily guarded Bunker, where command operations are planned.
Airfield - Where you launch planes and ships from on a Fortress, if it doesn't have a spaceport.
Hanger - Where they house their Mecha.
Repair Bay - How you repair stuff. Without this, you can't speed-repair things.
Radar Tower - How they detect suits, send out distress signals, as well as increase Minovsky Particle Density.

~Eldoreth
If you get these in an underwater base, they become torpedo launchers! ~Eld
This counts as a detector unit. ~Ketara
Note that, for the armor ratings on the mobile suits, optional shields are not included. Things like a Gouf or GMs shields effectively add .5 to the armor rating if used. Tiny shields like the Zaku II D's, or attached shields like the Zaku shield, are included in the armor profile.
~Ketara
Note that these combinations suffer the problem that they cannot be seperated. You have to keep the MS and Dodai together at all times, which can form trouble when putting them on ships or in MS teams.
~Ketara
This counts as a detector unit.
~Ketara
Many ship varients exist. You can make an action while at a base to refit a ship you already have, for the mentioned cost. All of the possible ship varients can be found here. ~Ketara
Now available in two colors! ~Vlad
A note - Only 3 of the Gaws MS can deploy effectively, the other 3 have to be parachuted out the rear, where they can be shot at by enemy units.
~Tian
Naval Warships are purely sea based. It's hard for them to attack land bases. ~Ketara

Airborne Mobile Suits
Taking to the skies, these mobile suits function in tandem with aircraft, or can make them obsolete all together.
Harsh Environment Mobile Suits
These mobile suits have been outfitted with special sand filters, larger radiators and other such technology to allow them to function in the harsh Desert, Tropical or Icy environments that would slowly grind other mobile suits to a stop. They can function just as well in normal climates, though they’re more expensive than regular units, so there’s not really much of a purpose.
J-type Zaku modifed for arid environments with sand filters, a huge external radiator in place of its backpack, and substantial weapons.

Mobile Armors
When the prestige of a mobile suit just isn’t enough, you call on the brute power of a mobile armor. Rather than elegantly dance through space or on land, clashing beam and heat weapons with the enemy, Mobile Armors just smash their way in, end of story. A note however. All the mobile Armors are overpriced, due to the fact that only four or five of each type was made. However, to make up for this, each mobile armor comes with a Lvl 2 pilot.

The backbone of any military force is its navy, whether terrestrial or space-bound. These are where mobile suits are launched from in an assault and how space battles are fought.

Super Battleships
Okay, you simply NEED to have a super-powerful warship and have a lot of cash to burn. Fear not, we are here for you! Some people say that the Super Battleship is an outdated, obsolete piece of technology. Perhaps they’ll think differently when they’re looking down the barrels of cannons larger than mobile suits!
---
Battlegroups
For those of you who wish to buy a fleet all at once, there are currently two deals available. If you buy 3 Musai class cruisers and 9 Zaku II F types all at once, you can get a 10% discount, for a total cost of 3,402 RP.

~Weapons of Mass Destruction~
Cause rampant chaos and destruction on an innumerable scale! It's what Zeon do!
G3 Gas Missiles
Not got the cash for nukes or a laser weapon? Grab one of these lovely colony-busters instead. Loaded into the same long-range missiles as nukes, the warheads instead mount canisters of highly poisonous G3 Nerve Gas. These are excellent for wiping out the population of a colony, or to kill unprepared soldiers, pilots, and other personnel at surface military bases. Packaged in sets of twelve, each missile mounts six canisters that are ejected before impact and then explode over a wide area, guaranteeing the immediate death of any people in the region.
Armament: G3 Gas Canister x 74
Cost: These are easily the cheapest super weapons out there. 8,250 RP.
Nuclear Missiles
A fairly cheap and easy-to-get method for smashing colonies, doing significant damage to Space Fortresses, or even to smite exposed land fortresses.

Armament: Nuclear charge x 12
Cost: These little suckers are expensive, but do offer you lots of pretty fireworks. 27,500 RP.
~Services~
Services can be purchased with RP just like other things, but aren't always physical objects. Their cost varies depending on whether you are in Friendly Held, Contested or Enemy Held territory, and some of them may count as actions.
Hacked Information
Occasionally information from a sides comm lines is picked up by the other side, and it's possible to hack into enemy databases as well. This counts as an action, and for every 30 RP spent one random word will be gleaned from a sides basic trooper message board.
Double Agent
Some Federal soldiers are in fact working for the Duchy. To represent this, a PC in Enemy Held territory may at any time spend 1000 RP to obtain the password to the opposing sides basic message board. This counts as an action.
Green pilot - -25 RP in Friendly Held
Sometimes the Federation/Duchy has to send pilots straight into combat without training. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 0.
Veteran Pilot - +100 RP in Contested, +50 RP in Friendly Held
Many a mobile suit pilot has been around for awhile, and is better than your average Joe. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 2.
Experianced Pilot - +200 RP in Contested, +150 RP in Friendly Held
Some pilots are simply above average, though by then they've usually died. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 3 pilot.
Advanced Pilot - +350 RP in Contested, +300 RP in Friendly Held
Few pilots get this high, but people who know people can usually recruit them. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 4 pilot.
Ace Pilot - +600 RP in Contested, +500 RP in Friendly Held
These guys are hard to find, but are more than a match for a Guncannon in a Zaku II. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 5 pilot.
Strengthened Human pilot - +450 RP in Friendly Held
There are quite a few rejects from the Flanagan Agency, people who have been screwed with a little too much. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Strengthened Human pilot.
Newtype pilot - +520 RP in Friendly Held
It is possible to pull some strings and get a Flanagan Agency pilot for your MS team. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Newtype pilot.
Artillary Support - 200 RP in Contested, 100 RP in Friendly Held
Sometimes in order to crack tough defences, artillary needs to be called in from the back lines. This represents things like Xamel, Jukon or Howitser fire if on Land or a long range beam cannon strike made by a Musai if in space. The problem is the actual spot to fire at can't be seen, so a friendly mobile suit must use a colored flare to signal the bombardment, and the bombarders will shoot at the flare. This does not count as an action, but must be purchased the same day you engage in an Installation Attack. Up to 3 such bombardments can be purchased per attack. Each bombardment represents one salvo from the bombarding force, which will be picked at random.
Anti-Artillary Cover Fire - 300 RP in Contested, 150 RP in Friendly Held
Planes can be brought in from long range to circle the perimeter of a battle-zone and attack any Artillary units in place. This does not count as an action, but must be purchased the same day you are engaged in an Installation Attack. It nullifies any Artillary Support services being used for that attack.
Flight Support - 150 RP in Contested, 75 RP in Friendly Held
This service can be purchased whenever you Battle. For each purchase up to two purchases, you can pick one of the following fighter squads to come to your aid approx. 1 minute after the battle starts - 6 Dopps for air-support, 6 Dodai bombers for low altitude bombing, or 4 Gunship Heli's for anti-MS support.
Colonial Uprising - 110 RP
This service can be purchased whenever you engage in an Installation Attack inside a Side except for Side 6. If purchased, the colonists will try to aid you, perhaps not giving the enemy ship docking clearance, if attacking a colony hampering defence forces, or other such whatnots.
Space Support - 180 RP in contested, 90 RP in Friendly Held
This service can be purchased whenever you Battle. For each purchase up to two purchases, you can pick one of the following fighter squads to come to your aid approx. 1 minute after the battle starts - 3 Zaku II F from a nearby Musai, or 3 Gattle anti-ship fighters. This can only be purchased in Space between 4 days from Earth and 1 day from Earth.
