Fort Poliax

Fort Poliax is a popular wasteland location which is commonly used for trade. Fort Poliax is moderately large and contains three major points; the lower, middle, and upper area. Fort Poliax was founded not too long after the AEGIS border was founded, for the use of being a trading outpost rather than a fully fledged border. Fort Poliax is the main hub of the wasteland for trading, and also houses a small number of wastelanders and current day traders. Fort Poliax is also equipped with a large radio tower for daily transmissions from survivors outside the area. 
==History of Poliax==
It all started when AEGIS was first founded by the chairman, and was running low on resources. Some wastelander factions had already taken control of Fort Poliax. MDF Control-Squad had discovered Poliax during a patrol in the wasteland, 2 out of the 15 of them made it out alive due to the amount of raiders and reported the news of a quarry with many resources for AEGIS to possibly use in the near future. Since wastelanders already had poliax, AEGIS had to take it by force. There was a radio tower for better communications from the border to the wasteland by Poliax. Diamonds were then also discovered by AEGIS shortly and discovered how immensely sturdy diamonds are, leading to better defenses later after discovery. Right after PKSF secured and claimed Poliax, AEGIS began exploiting these resources into better use, ARD also began researching these new ores that could be used for future projects, like gold, uranium, and titanium.
The history of Fort Poliax consists of many big trades, but when money is involved there's always a bad apple. Occasional brawls break out on the lower levels of fort poliax due to scams or deals gone wrong. One of the most infamous brawls here is referred to was the “Great Battery Brawl”. In a middle of a high class battery deal, one group planned to flank the other and take the batteries forcefully. This ended up in numerous casualties and both groups remain in the shadows of poliax to this day.
== Current day Poliax ==
Current day uses of Fort Poliax include trading, although it is a less popular marketplace as it was when it was founded, most members headed over to the regional mall when it was first discovered. Fort Poliax also consists of many spots for gathering large numbers of groups, notorious for holding large amounts of raiders in it. AEGIS and wastelanders still fight over for Poliax to this day for the control-point. FA+ usually host patrols to Poliax to have control of the point. PKSF, MDF , and STHD also assist in getting Poliax in their own patrols. Technology and resource output has been improved since we have claimed Poliax from the wastelanders. Weaponry and armor were improved, defensive points have also been improved, and expansion of AEGIS will also improve in the near future with the resources in Poliax.
==Upper==
The upper area is the highest point of Poliax and contains a few empty buildings and a radio tower. The tower contains a hackable laptop which can be controlled by either wastelanders or AEGIS. The upper area also contains diamond ore which can be traded with the ore NPC in the middle area. The tunnel to the left of the tower connects to middle, and hence makes upper accessible from lower. 
==Middle==
The middle point is between the upper and lower points. This point is accessible from lower by a tunnel in the terrain. Here, you can find a shop where you can trade your mined ores for scrap. You can also buy a pickaxe and weaponry here. Outside the store lies a lava pit with green, glowy rocks also known as Uranium. (10 stone each when mined) surrounding it. As you move away from the store, you will arrive at a watch tower used as a lookout for raiders or potential AEGIS. To the right of this watchtower is a tunnel through which you can access the upper point. Near middle you will also find a crane site containing a battery crate. 
 
==Lower==
The lower section contains the gate to Fort Poliax and additionally contains a few empty buildings. The main building at lower is used to host hide and seeks events or raid events. To the left of lower lies a tunnel through which you can access the middle point.
