Fort James

Situated on Lewis Island off the southern end of the Borgman Coast, Fort James is the sister fort of Fort Derringer.  Only equipped with a garrison of 10,000 troops and a smattering of defensive batteries, it is Dwarfed by Derringer.  However, Fort James is equipped with an extensive array of radar and telecommunications countermeasures that compliment Derringer’s immense firepower.  The most critical piece of its arsenal is the Arcturus IV Quasi-Mass Disruption Field Generator. Following the invention of Mass Reconciliation Technology, it was not long before the innovation was weaponized, being used to materialize large armies behind enemy lines, gaining access to civilian areas and supply lines. For both the Iron Coalition and the Pax-Viribus Theocracy, this period was known as the Year Of Fear. As millions died, hordes of scientists In Uranite bunkers feverishly worked to develop a solution.  The Arcturus generator was the long awaited answer to this issue.  The device creates a sub-atomically charged field to disrupt the frequency of the atoms in transit, essentially vaporizing any matter caught in the pulses. The generator then relays the pulse to receiver node towers found throughout the region, keeping the Coalition safe from surprise attacks. 
In addition to conventional defenses, Fort James deploys an experimental Tempest Mk I Kinetic Rejection Dissipator to protect its delicate suite of electronics.  Recently developed by Fujisaka Defense, Inc., the device forms a field whereby kinetic projectiles are atomized and their corresponding Joule output dissipated across the area of the field.  Depending on the system’s auxiliary capacitance, the field can only handle a max amount of concurrent dissipation before the system is damaged and the field is destroyed.
