Compounds and Compound Accessories
Compounds
Compounds may only be purchased through a build action, and consist of any stationary defensive location. Fortresses and Fortress equipped colonies count as Installations and can control territory, while the rest of the compounds count as Fortifications and cannot control territory. All compounds must have a Location chosen from the Locations list.
Fortification
In essence, a mini-base. These 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.
-
- Standard defences: None, 20x maximum
- Built-in accessories: Airfield, Hangar, Radar/Transmissions Tower, HQ
- Hangar capacity: 8x mobile suits, 10x tanks/fighters, 2x mobile armors
- Cost: 250 RP
Note: For a build action, Fortifications can be upgraded to Fortresses for 750 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 attached to a Fortress as an add-on. They slowly suck minerals, Helium 3, ore, Vespine Gas, crude oil, Tiberium, or whatever other local asset out of the ground, and bring income to it's owner.
-
- Standard defences: None, 5x maximum
- Built-in accessories: Mining compound, Airfield, Hangar, Radar/Transmissions Tower, HQ
- Hangar Capacity: 4x mobile suits, 1x tank/fighter, 1x mobile armor
- Income: 80 RP
- Cost: 250 RP
- Note: Only a maximum of 3 mines at the same position will produce income.
Asteroid Mine
An asteroid half the size of a colony, this is a true symbol of economic might. Passages colonize its interior, making it easy to mine valuable ores from inside. Due to the activity on a mine, few fixed defenses can be placed on an active Mine, but you can always move one Asteroid Mine to orbit around a friendly colony for protection.
-
- Standard defences: None, 10x maximum
- Built-in accessories: Mining compound, Hangar, Radar/Transmissions Tower, HQ
- Hangar Capacity: 4x mobile suits, 5x fighter, 1x mobile armor
- Move Rate: 1/4th normal
- Income: 160 RP
- Cost: 500 RP
- Note: Only a maximum of 3 mines at the same position will produce income.
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.
-
- Standard Defences: 4x AA turret, 40x maximum
- Built-in accessories: Outer Wall, Cellblock, Repair Bay, Hangar, Ship Dock, Airfield, HQ Bunker, Radar/Transmissions Tower
- Hangar Capacity: 25x mobile suits, 40x tank/fighter, 5x mobile armor
- Cost: 1,000 RP
Mirrored Space Colony
This sixty-kilometer long cylinder is home to five million people. Inside, people go about their daily lives as though they were on Earth. Although designed to house a civilian population, space colonies can be equipped with a small defensive armament, and have a large hangar. While a Facility normally, a Fortress can be built inside a Space Colony, upgrading it to an Installation.
-
- Standard Defences: None, 10 maximum
- Built-in accessories: Reflective Mirrors, Hydroponics bays, Repair Bay, Hangar, Ship Dock, HQ Bunker, Radar/Transmissions Tower
- Hangar Capacity: 17x mobile suits, 20x tank/fighter, 3x mobile armor
- Move rate: 1/4th normal
- Income: 50 RP
- Note: Only purchasable at Sides 1, 2, 4 or 5
- Cost: 1,000 RP
Note: Space colonies can be purchased two at a time in a bunch formation for 1,750 RP.
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 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.
-
- Standard Defences: None, 10 maximum
- Built-in accessories: Hydroponics bays, Repair Bay, Hangar, Ship Dock, HQ Bunker, Radar/Transmissions Tower
- Hangar Capacity: 20x mobile suits, 20x tank/fighter
- Move rate: 1/4th normal
- Income: 50 RP
- Note: Only purchasable at Side 3
- Cost: 1,100 RP
Note: Sealed colonies can be purchased two at a time in a bunch formation for 1,900 RP.
Locations
Earth, Mars and Lunar theatre compounds can be built into specific, harsh locations for additional cost. These locations confer certain advantages and disadvantages to the defending force. Some location combinations cannot be purchased in certain areas, please use common sense.
Coastal
Built into the coast, these fortresses include a harbor for tendering marine vessels and controlling the seas. Although this will increase the number of theatres your fortress can effectively support, at the same time it will increase the number of ways in which it can be attacked.
-
- Advantages: Provides repair capabilities for naval ships and mobile weapons.
- Disadvantages: Allows for the base to be amphibiously assaulted.
- Cost: 100 RP
Arctic
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: 250 RP
Desert
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, but only specialized mobile suits operate at peak efficiency.
-
- 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: 250 RP
Tropical
In need of extra radiators and other such gear, tropical and heavily forested climates spell trouble for mobile suits. Defending player-controlled mobile suits can be outfitted with gear to prevent moisture and undergrowth from damaging systems, but only specialized mobile suits operate at peak efficiency.
-
- Advantages: Mobile suits designed for these extreme environments work well here.
- Disadvantages: Moisture can badly damage electronics and weapons on conventional mobile suits and mobile armors.
- Cost: 250 RP
Island
Built on top of a small island with the coast as perimeter defenses, these fortresses are difficult to get on or off of. Attacking units will find the combination of having to cross the water to fight on land aggravating, whereas defending units will find retreat an equally difficult option.
-
- Advantages: Attacking mobile suits will have to move across water or air to assualt the base.
- Disadvantages: The islands small size will make it more susceptible to bombing, and retreat will be difficult.
- Cost: 300 RP
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: Enemy aircraft will be restricted and land forces will advance more slowly.
- Disadvantages: Your own aircraft will have a hard time due to thinning atmosphere.
- Cost: 400 RP
Urban
Genocidal maniacs love this little ditty, your base is built right in the middle of a massive city! Maneuvering is hard, firing without hitting civilians is harder, and battles will look like the first episode of Robotech. If combined with an underground base, you could literally create the most advanced base in the history of Anime. Yes, NERV is now at your disposal.
-
- Advantages: The city this base is placed inside produces an income, much like a mine, and the buildings provide good cover for friendly units.
- Disadvantages: To put it bluntly, the civilians will hate you.
- Income: 50 RP
- Cost: 400 RP
Naval
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.
- Disadvantages: The large pontoons that keep these structures afloat are excellent targets for mobile armors and submarines that manage to get close enough.
- Cost: 500 RP
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: Because of its altitude, the number of enemy units that can actually attack such a base is very limited.
- Disadvantages: Like the floating Naval Fortress, the Minovski craft compressors are good targets.
- Note: Atmospheric fortresses can also be purchased in Earth or Jupiter orbit.
- Cost: 750 RP
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.
- Disadvantages: Several good, solid torpedo hits could cause a massive depressurization resulting in a fortresses' destruction.
- Cost: 750 RP
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.
- Disadvantages: There's only one really... Cost! These fortresses are expensive.
- Cost: 1,000 RP
Combo
Multiple base locations can be purchased at one time for a compound, although some combinations (Airborne+Underground?) are impossible. Don't be a jackass.
Add-ons
While compounds come with their own integral hangars, HQ bunkers and what have you, additional and more sophisticated buildings can be purchased at additional price. These add-ons can be targetted and destroyed by enemy attack, and while integral features of a base can be repaired, add-on features must be repurchased.
Minefield
A simple field of explosive proximity mines, this can be used to delay an enemies advance into a fortress. There are three types of minefield, land mines, underwater mines and space mines, and each must be purchased seperately. Minefields can be purchased while your compound is under siege, albeit at double price.
-
- Cost: 150 RP (300 if sieged)
Perimiter Wall
An outer wall designed to repel a first wave of attack, this add-on enlarges the effective area of a compound, allowing for more defensive emplacements. If purchased for a Space Colony or Asteroid, this in effect redesigns the colonies hull for military use.
-
- Effect: +10 maximum defences.
- Cost: 200 RP
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: 200 RP (400 if sieged)
Enlarged Cellblock
While all fortresses carry simple cellblocks, these can be enlarged to make it much more difficult for a captured pilot to escape. This add-on functions as a normal Cellblock where none exist naturally.
-
- Cost: 300 RP
Enlarged Hangar
Extremely important locations will enlarge and add secondary hangars, to increase the number of servicable units in their territory.
-
- Effect: Maximum hangar space +10 mobile suits and +10 tanks/fighters
- Cost: 400 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 turrets, improving their accuracy.
-
- 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: 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. Spaceports may be purchased for a Lunar fortress, but are not necessary for a ship to escape the moons gravity well.
-
- Cost: 1,000 RP
War Factory
The War Factory, once constructed, can harvest the resources needed and then produce any product in the shop. How many can be produced in a one-week production run is based on cost. A War Factory is somewhat different from a mine, as it produces weaponry even during a siege.
-
- Effect: The factory is credited 400 RP every Sunday, which can be used at any time to purchase shop materials at the factories location.
- Cost: 2,000 RP
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.
-
- Cost: 2,400 RP
Defences
Clearly even the best base will fall eventually without its own defensive armament. Turrets and gun emplacements can be purchased up to a bases defensive emplacement maximum, to assist in defending the area. (R) marked defences cannot make All Range Attack actions, but will shell enemy fleets during a siege.
AA machinegun turret
While only remotely effective against mobile suits, these open-ended turrets are inexpensive and excellent against fighter aircraft.
-
- Armament: Four-barreled 45mm rapid-fire machinegun
- Cost: 11 RP
Depth Charge launcher
For anti-submarine warfare, the Depth Charge launcher is the best there is.
-
- Armament: Two-tube Depth Charge discharger

MPC turret
Small, fast tracking Mega Particle gun for taking out mobile suits, the ultimate in AA technology.
-
- Armament: 2-barrel Mega Particle Cannon
- Cost: 80 RP
Asteroid Rocket Cluster
A cluster of asteroids equipped with rockets, harmless until propelled towards a large target.
-
- Armament: 20x Asteroid Rocket
Note: These clusters do not count towards the total defences amount, but are limited to three per location. Purchasable in space only.
Cost: 120 RP
Howitzer (R)
The ultimate in artillery weaponry, the Howitzer is perfect for anti-Siege warfare.
-
- Armament: 880mm rifled howitzer
- Cost: 200 RP
Large MPC (R)
A large, slow moving, anti-ship Mega Particle Cannon, this packs a punch, but has a slow rate of fire compared to the Howitzer.
-
- Armament: Two-barreled Large Mega Particle Cannon
- Cost: 240 RP.
Space Defence Platform
Built into an Asteroid, this is the best thing you can get for defending a space-based location.
-
- Armament: 12x 2-barrel beam gun turrets, 2x heavy rocket launcher turret.
- Note: These platforms do not count towards the total defences amount, but are limited to four per location. Only buildable in space.
- Cost: 360
Extended Range Laser Cannon (R)
Designed to take out a target at long range, these delicate anti-ship cannons are accurate at much longer ranges than an MPC.
-
- Note: Only buildable in space.
- Armament: Long range laser cannon.
- Cost: 600 RP
Mobile Weapons
Mobile Weapons can be purchased for an MS team, a ships hangar or a bases hangar. Tanks and Fighters can operate in a hangar slot designed for a MS or an MA, and MS can operate in a hangar slot designed for an MA, but the reverse is not possible. Player units do take up space inside a ships hangar, but not in a compounds hangar. (L) marked MS take up 2 MS hangar slots or 1 MA slot.

Extras
Weapons of Mass Destruction
The Antarctic Treaty is around, alive and kicking, but it never seems to be so big a deal to actually prevent the liberal use of nuclear warheads in the UC world, and this is reflected here. When purchased, WMDs will remain off a units roster page until they are actually used.
Strategic Nuclear Warheads
Famous for their use during Operation Lourm, the duchy made small, strategic nuclear rounds for use in Zaku Bazookas. Although some rounds still exist, it is extremely difficult to obtain clearance to use them, as this violates the Antarctic Treaty. These warheads are mounted in a standard Zaku Bazooka clip, and one packs enough punch to destroy a Salamis class ship.
-
- Armament: 4x strategic nuclear warhead.
- Cost: 3,200 RP
G3 Gas Missiles
While G3 canisters are still very available throughout the ZMF, actually obtaining clearance to violate the Antarctic Treaty takes some doing. Mounting enough gas for a single volley from a Musai or Chivvay class ship, these missiles can optionally be armed on a specialized mobile suit rocket launcher.
-
- Armament: 12x G3 warhead
- Cost: 8,000 RP
Mass Driver
A gigantic railgun designed to ferry cargo between long distances of space at extreme speeds, it is very easy to modify a Mass Driver into an effective weapon. Designed to fire a heavy armor piercing shell with incredible accuracy and speed, a Mass Driver round does not cause the collateral damage of a nuclear missile, but is deadly all the same. The downside of this weapon is its size and sophistication makes it difficult to arm and aim properly.
-
- Rules: A Mass Driver is attached to a compound like an Add-On, and cannot be moved once purchased. Once built, the driver can target a single compound or fleet per update. This target can be anywhere in the same territory as the Mass Driver, meaning it can fire on an enemy fleet before it actually reaches the weapons location.
- Note: Building this requires a build action. Only buildable in space.
- Income: 50 RP
- Armament: 1x Mass Driver
- Cost: 8,000 RP
Nuclear Warheads
Although the Duchys supply of nukes has more or less gone dry, a few still exist. However, what is more difficult than obtaining a nuke is obtaining the clearance to use one, as it violates the antarctic treaty. Purchased in bulk, this option allows for enough warheads for a single volley from a Musai or Chivvay class ship.
-
- Armament: 12x nuclear warhead.
- Cost: 32,000 RP
Pilots
Pilots of higher levels may be purchased for NPC units, both ships and mobile weapons, to enhance their effectiveness. While sometimes not very cost effective, in the right situations these pilots can be an excellent buy. The Newtype option can be purchased in addition to a standard option, but only if both are purchased together.
Green
Sometimes the Federation/Duchy has to send pilots straight into combat without training. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 0. Lvl0 pilots have 1 VP and 1 CP.
-
- Note: These pilots may only be purchased when their unit is purchased.
- Cost: -25 RP, minimum cost 5 RP
Veteran
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. Lvl2 pilots have 28 VP and 2 CP.
-
- Cost: 50 RP
Experienced
Some pilots are simply above average, though by then they've usually died. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 3 pilot. Lvl3 pilots have 42 VP and 3 CP.
-
- Cost: 100 RP
Advanced
Few pilots last this long, but people who know people can usually recruit them. You may purchase a mobile weapon with a Lvl 4 pilot. Lvl4 pilots have 56 VP and 4 CP.
-
- Cost: 300 RP
Newtype
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 (N) pilot. Newtype pilots have an NT of 2.
-
- Cost: 400 RP
Ace
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. Lvl5 pilots have 70 VP and 5 CP.
-
- Cost: 500 RP
Services
Services are temporary assistance to a PC engagement from NPC forces and patrols. Each side of a battle may purchase up to two services to assist it. Services may not be purchased in enemy territory.
Hacked Information
Although sophisticated laser sensors and encryption systems are used for all important communications, even the hardest code can be cracked if enough resources are spent.
-
- Effect: Random words gleaned from enemy sides base passworded board
- Cost: 10 RP per word
Artillery Support
Long range missile fire to support a formation can be made from well behind enemy lines, a Musai or a Jukon coordinating support fire using a mobile suit to sight the enemy.
-
- Effect: Long range missile fire to support a position.
- Cost: 100 RP
Flight Support
Scouting fighter formations can often be called into a combat zone if a pilot is lucky enough, patrols aiding an existing battle.
-
- Effect: Support from 6 Dopps or 6 Gattles
- Note: The above number of fighters is not set in stone, just a suggestion. Different support for specific missions can be asked for, be it bombers, EWACs support, infantry, etc, as long as the cost is kept roughly the same.
- Cost: 100 RP
MS support
Zaku II F types, the most numerous mobile suit of the One Year War, are often used as patrol units, able to aid existing battles when they see them.
-
- Effect: Support from 3 Zaku II F types.
- Cost: 125 RP
Dummy units
Space is a large, difficult to monitor place, and sophisticated mobile suit and ship sensors can be fooled by simple tricks. Using thruster-equipped balloons designed to look exactly like the real thing, a fleet can hide its real intentions by deploying a decoy "fleet".
-
- Effect: Balloon ship and/or mobile suit purchases
- Note: Only purchasable in space
- Cost: 100RP +1/10th of real ship/mobile suit costs +X amount. X may be anything, and exists to disguise the real cost of the dummy fleet from OCD players.
Double Agent
Many double agents exist in both the Zeon and Federation, what is more difficult than recruiting an operative is making contact with them within enemy territory.
-
- Effect: Player recieves access to the base Federation passworded board. Password will be reset the following Sunday.
- Note: Requires a successful build action in enemy territory
- Cost: 1000 RP
Variants
There are two types of variant options, which can be purchased with a refit action. The first type, soft refits, are reversable and can be purchased anywhere. The second type, hard refits, are irreversable and can only be purchased at an installation. Variants are available both to player and NPC units. The one exception to this rule is Gyan and Gelgoog variants count as soft refits for player MS and hard refits for NPC MS.
Soft Refits
Dom/Rick Dom
Doms can be refitted to operate in both space and land environments by changing out the units legs for a set mounting different kinds of thrusters. When originally purchased, the mobile suit can be equipped in either configuration.
-
- Cost: Free
Dom Funf/Dom Tropen
While Dom Funfs in their standard configuration will operate both in space and on land, the space use equipment can be exchanged for bulky radiators, for operating in harsh terrestrial environments. When originally purchased, the mobile suit must be in the Dom Funf configuration.
-
- Cost: Free
Harsh Climate Equipment
Making due with what materials they have available, a soldier can modify his mobile suit to operate in desert, tropical, or arctic conditions with increased effectiveness. The added weight and removal of redundant systems will reduce the mobile suits effectiveness outside of the specified environment.
-
- Note: Only available to PC mobile suits, can be put on a refitted unit.
- Cost: 50 RP, free to remove equipment.
Gyan/Gyan High Mobility Type
Sporting the same frame and equipment as the original Gyan, but with a larger and more powerful backpack, the Gyan High Mobility eats fuel and is hard to handle, but considerably speedier than the original. The HMT's backpack mounts 2 external fuel tanks for extended operations.

-
- Additional equipment: 2x external fuel tank
- Cost: 50 RP, free for PC units
Gyan/Gyan Cannon (R)
Sporting the same frame and equipment as the original Gyan, the Gyan Cannons backpack also mounts two heavy ballistic cannons for fire support, as well as a grenade launcher mounted in the left arm, beneath the shield, and a more powerful sensor suite in the head.

-
- Additional armament: 1x anti-battleship beam cannon (5 round charge)
- Additional equipment: Forearm hardpoints can also mount 3-tube missile launchers (1 round)
- Cost: 70 RP, free for PC units
