Summary


What is a relic war?
A relic war is a special event that runs every once in a while. Relic wars have special materials called relic materials which spawn at random locations on every map. Relic mats can be used to build special relic vehicles (and sometimes weapons!) at garages. These vehicles will be covered in a separate section below. Despite the contracts in appearances, relic vehicles are NOT faction specific.




Mining for Relic Materials
Relic nodes look exactly like rare resource node (pictured below). As a reminder, they spawn at random locations throughout the world, but often appear near roads and region borders. They are mined with a hammer or sledge hammer. Each node usually contains 5 relic materials, and can be crated/reserved in a stockpile when you have 20 of them.

Relic Vehicles


Staff Car

80 Relic Materials

The Staff Car is the combination of the light utility vehicle (LUV) and the motorcycle. It has the ability to boost it's speed by pressing shift, while having 9 inventory slots. The downside is that it can only carry 2 players (including driver).




Repurposed Truck


80 Relic Materials

The Repurposed Truck is the same as a normal supply truck, but with slower speed and 2 more inventory slots.




Armoured Fighting Tractor


120 Relic Materials

The Armoured Fighting Tractor is the relic counterpart to the armoured car. It has tank armour and better off-road speed.




Storm Tank


250 Relic Materials

The Storm Tank is the relic counterpart to the light tank. It boasts superior frontal armour, firing rate and a reverse speed.




Phalanx


600 Relic Materials

The Phalanx is a two-cannon tank. It features high health at the cost of low speed. The cannons have traversal arc of about 150 degrees, meaning there is a dead zone where the gunners cannot aim. The Phalanx has space for the driver, commander and 2 gunners.




Heavy Infantry Carrier


??? Relic Materials

The Heavy Infantry Carrier (HIC) is a huge landship. Larger than battle tanks and assault tanks, the HIC has the largest health pool of any vehicle in the game (it can drive over 30 AT mines and not get disabled!). It features two machine guns on the front corners of the landship, each with a traversal arc of about 100 degrees. When the HIC is destroyed, it leaves a husk that is repairable, which creates another HIC for the cost of 200 rmats.

Mechs & Dead Harvest


Dead Harvest Halloween Event

The Dead Harvest is an annual Halloween themed event which lasts for one or two wars. There are special mechs which (sometimes) reuse the relic material mechanics of relic vehicles. Zombie mechanics are a separate topic.




Centurion

80 Relic Materials

The Centurion is a heavy walker mech armed with a tank cannon on it's body as well as a machine gun on each of it's two arms. All three weapons can face in different directions as they each require their own gunner. It has space for a driver, commander and three gunners.




Scourge Hunter


??? Relic Materials

The Scourge Hunter is a walker mech armed with a quad-R.P.G. launcher as well as a quad heavy machine gun. It has space for a driver, commander and two gunners.

One important detail about the relic/repurposed truck ; it has faster pull times making it more efficient if not just more convenient overall :winter2019happygingerbread:
