|
|
Since you will be fighting the Kharaa on home
|
|
territory (our own ships and bases), you have
|
|
many advantages. Some of these are obvious – like
|
|
having maps of the battleground. But even more
|
|
important, is the existing command network in
|
|
each ship. </p>
|
|
<p>The command network is a layer of multi-purpose
|
|
nanos that spreads, root-like, just above all
|
|
ceilings and overhangs. Micro-arrays of lenses,
|
|
tiny packets of construction nanos, and hundreds
|
|
of other nano-devices all tied into millions of
|
|
relays and computing nodules – cohering into a
|
|
pervasive, responsive system intimately connected
|
|
to every aspect of its ship's or base's existence.
|
|
This network also holds the marine's <a href="front_resources.html">resources</a>,
|
|
distributed throughout its veins.<br>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p> To take advantage of the network, every ship
|
|
or base has a command interface, which, before
|
|
the Kharaa, was used by top administrative or
|
|
authority figures to manage and govern their domain.
|
|
These interfaces replaced vast numbers of support
|
|
staff with one person, who could instantly turn
|
|
their attention anywhere within the ship or base,
|
|
and guide the crew through their duties. Used
|
|
for tasks as varied as maintenance or surveillance,
|
|
the command interface also allowed its user to
|
|
operate some elements of the physical environment,
|
|
like doors and lights; and, crucially, granted
|
|
clearance for nano-construction. </p>
|
|
<p> Put to use by a Frontiersman Commander (using
|
|
a <a href="structures_cc.html">command console</a>),
|
|
the network becomes the heart of any military
|
|
campaign. Gaining control of the command network
|
|
is the first and most vital task for a squad.
|
|
This is easily accomplished. Since we are returning
|
|
these ships and bases to the previous owners,
|
|
they gladly provide us with the encryption keys
|
|
to access their systems. Before a squad even deploys,
|
|
they are already online. For a description of
|
|
the command interface, click <a href="front_comhud.html">here</a>.</p>
