Chrono Entente

**Dev. Status** | Conceptual

The Chrono Entente are a force of heavily armed troops from the future sent back in time in order to hunt down those who are responsible for the Paradox and to ensure their own existence. Their arsenal is full of various Chrono Weapons and other advanced and deadly technologies. They will stop at nothing until their existence is secure, even if it means they must crush Earth under their boot heel.

Unfortunately, they have also become slightly insane, driven to that point via the unnatural energies of the chronosphereing an entire continent and its population when they travelled back in time, and have to equip special “timesuits” to survive the new world (as their time-displaced bodies would rapidly decay otherwise), and many of their soldiers have been warped and mutated via the unnatural energy, and they now possess abilities that are more akin to magic rather than science as the common man in this world will tell you. But, in all honesty, that doesn't matter now...

## Gameplay Style and Development

### Won't Stay Dead

Due to a side effect of their time jump, all their units won't actually stay dead. Or rather, they'll resurrect themselves after the first time they're killed. Second time they die, however, they stay dead. Unless their Heroic rank, in which case they'll revive again but loses all veterancy, which can be repeated.

### Chrono-Synchronisation

All Entente units can be upgraded with improved equipment. These equipment are accessible via the "Advance Equipment" protocol, which chronoshift a large crate at the targeted area. Entente forces can interact with this crate and begin the upgrade process of a secondary gear kit, radically changing their current equipment, weapons, armour, and ability, this can be done three times before the crate is exhausted. During the upgrade process, the targeted units are unable to move or attack. Destroying the unit will immediately stop the upgrade process. The time taken to upgrade a unit depends on the weapon. For instance, upgrading a Gunner GI to a Assault GI will take a few seconds. But upgrading a Grizzly into a Rhino might take a minute or more. Similarly, the rearmament can be reversed and reapplied at any time via interracting with said crate.

### Time Slashed

Due to the side effects of their time displacement, Entente buildings will spread their time field slowly across the field. This corruption will cause enemy soldiers to slowly take damage as they advance into Entente territory, and it causes Entente soldiers to slowly regenerate health.

### £5 Admission to Bedlam, Sirrah!

Due to their body rapidly decaying when exposed out of their time field (an unfortunate side effect when they Chrono shifted themselves and 50% of their world's population to the new world), each of the Entente forces needs to have their suit/vehicle specially sealed. This means that the price for each unit will gradually increase with each new one purchased. Usually in increments of five or ten, normally. This means that, unfortunately, the longer a battle drags on, the more costly it is for the Entente to keep fighting, making the reinforcements of lost units much harder. Only good thing is that all of their forces stars out cheap.
