Arena

==Overview==
The Combat Arena is a building that is released in the 4.5 Patch. It's part of the PvP system that allows players to play PvP in real time (Synchronous) against random players and friends, as well as Asynchronous against other players' defense armies, for Gold and Resources. It is unlocked at Level 5 along with the Battle Flag, which is also needed for PvP.
To participate in Asynchronous battles, players need PvP Energy which is generated by the Arena at a rate of 1 per hour. Since the 4.7 Patch, players can also acquire PvP Energy as a reward for winning battles in the Arena.

===Build The Arena===
Dialogue 	Dialogue
Start mission 	Start mission
 	You ever think, 'You know, this Outpost is really missing an arena where we can enjoy friendly bloodshed with other Outposts without the commitment of a messy war?'
 	I was going to say clean drinking water and worker's compensation, but I suppose we all have different, often incorrect, priorities.
 	An arena WOULD improve our strategic positioning and my general cheerfulness.
 	Seriously, you too? We're really going to build an arena, and not, you know, a working irrigation system? Or some proper roofing for the orphanage so they're not all crushed in their sleep?
 	….
 	….
 	Yeah, let's go build an arena!
Finish mission	Finish mission
 	Well, I think I've really outdone myself. This arena is a thing of beauty.
 	It's casting a shadow so big the Buddha Hand crops are withering.
 	Floyd, you need to think of the big picture. You need to think, any moment now, I'll be watching Perkins run for his life from a pleather front-row seat. While I'm sipping on a mojito. And laughing.

 	So, we got an arena.So, let's get going. I'm ready to watch people fight for my amusement.
 	First, we'll need to place our defense formation.
 	This already sounds like too many obstacles.
 	After our formation is set up, then others can battle us. And we can battle THEM.
Finish mission	Finish mission
 	Well, that battle was invigorating.
 	Y'know, the battles might be more interestin' if we added some kind of twist! How about floodin' the arena with lava? Oh, or buzzsaws!

 	Why y'all lookin' at me like I said somethin' wrong?
===Win For Me, Win For My Love===
Dialogue 	Dialogue
Start mission 	Start mission
 	Now that we've fought in the arena, I have the thirst for victory.Perkins, I need a victory! I have THE THIRST. I need it! I crave it!
 	You're scaring me, sir.
 	Good, you need a little more fear in your life. It builds character.
Finish mission	Finish mission
 	Sir, we should also check in every once in a while to see if our formation has won battles against other outposts.
 	Great, sounds like a job for Sarge. I'll stay here and oversee our victory parade preparations. Perkins, how is the victory flag coming along?
 	My fingers are bleeding.
 	Well, sew faster and the pain will be over faster!

 	It's really hard to be as intelligent as I am. I have to think of everything.
