UNSC Firebase Unit [Field Armory]

[Source: Halo Wars]

The UNSC Firebase is a prefabricated base of operations used by the UNSC Marine Corps in combat zones or locations that are otherwise hostile.

The UNSC developed modular firebases due to lessons learned in the early days of the Human-Covenant War, in which large UNSC military installations proved vulnerable to orbital bombardment. The Firebase combines the needs of a tactical communications, a command center and expansion into both a barracks and a production facility capable of assembling combat vehicles. The Firebase unit itself is a variant of the old colony starter units constructed out of polycrete and powered by a small hydrogen reactor. Because gaining a foothold quickly was key to fighting insurrections throughout the colonies, ships can directly deploy the entire assembly unit of a Firebase via large dropships such as the D20 Heron or D81-LRT Condor, making it immediately useful. This ability proved invaluable in the ongoing war with the Covenant and was often considered a key advantage of the UNSC on the ground.


The Field Armory is a UNSC building in the game Halo Wars.

The UNSC's Field Armory is a cross between a machine\fabrication shop, and a research laboratory. This is where the most advanced technology for the UNSC is created by dedicated engineers and scientists.

The Field Armory allows the player to purchase upgrades in five areas. One upgrade reduces the amount of time needed to requisition combat units. Another increases the actual population capacity by 10 units. Two turret upgrades, available sequentially, replace the standard M202 turret with larger multi-barrel configurations, visually similar to twin- or quad-.50s. A fourth upgrade gives a significant boost to all infantry types' running speeds. The last upgrades available for purchase are three sequential improvements to the selected hero unit's leader power: adding up to three additional MAC gun shots for Captain Cutter, nearly quadrupling the number of bombs and target area of Sergeant Forge's Carpet Bomb, and improving Professor Anders' Cryo Bomb, significantly lengthening its effect, and knocking more aircraft out of the sky during the initial freeze.

An excellent tactic to use with the Field Armory is to build one early on, quickly research any upgrades the player plans to utilize, and then scrap the building in place of a Vehicle Depot, airpad, or Barracks, allowing for the highest possible number of Supply Pads, while still leaving room for unit production. It costs 150 resources and requires a tech level of 1.
