Outpost

The Outpost is the heart of Outpost: Infinity Siege. A modular heavy combat platform, it serves both as an essential tool during Exploration and as a weapon of war against the Mechanos. The shift to Outposts built around Promethean Field cores was necessitated by the creation of AETOS, and in turn, the vulnerability of fixed emplacements. The first nine outposts were custom-made, complex affairs that consumed vast amounts of resources. With Outposts 10 and 11, the EUA has adopted a modular design, pushing the envelope. It is one of these that Fae Pratt commands after the failure of Starfall.
==Basics==
As expected, the Outpost is your basic, customizable tool of war. Starting with a very small plate, you'll eventually be able to build a massive battlestation capable of going toe to toe against the most powerful forces of Mechanos. The Outpost is defined by three stats aside from the modules:
* Materials, used to manufacture supplies on the spot.
* Power, which allows you to unleash various abilities.
* Core Output, determining x-boost field radius, component damage boost percentage, defense increase within the x-boost field, container row count, and scanning range.
** X-Boost Field range starts at 20m and increases 1m every 10 core power output.
** Component damage bonus starts at 0% and increases 1% every 20 core power output.
** In-field Defense starts at 0 and increases 1 every 5 core power output.
** Container row count starts at 5 and increases 1 every 100 core power output.
** Scan Range starts at 170m and requires 500 core power output before increase 1m every 5 core power output.
*** For example. With 500 core power output you would still have 170m scan range, but at 505 you would have 171m of scan range.
==Modules==
Beyond that, your Outpost is built around the core tower, which is the most vital part of the entire outpost. If it's destroyed, all gear is lost and you have to fight for your life as AETOS descends. There are three types of modules:
* Assault modules
* Structural modules
* Support modules
Tuning the relationship between parts and finding the right blueprints is an exercise in itself.
==Other outposts==
* Outpost 4, a massive, seafaring outpost.
* Outpost 7, under Cmdr Polina.
* Outpost 8, equipped with a giant rail cannon, under Cmdr Alexander.
