## Tactical Analysis

* **Welcome to the wasteland**: An amphibious IFV designed to survive and operate in the harsh, radiation-scarred wastelands that make up what was once China, the Mobile Garrison is hardy and extremely tough for a Kingdom unit.

* **Radiowave frequency**: The Mobile Garrison is not totally unarmed either. For self-defence, it is armed with a radio turret that allows it to fend off pesky bandits and the like.

* **Survivors ahoy**: Having been designed to be an amphibious armoured transport, the Mobile Garrison has room for six, allowing it to safely and quickly transport them across large stretches of terrain, and can dig into the ground to become a bunker, increasing its armour, projecting its planar shielding to create a temporary defense point, and opening its fireports for the passengers inside to attack and hold until the Kingdoms defenses catch up where they’ll pack up and move again.

* **Anti-Radiation medicine**: As its original role was to locate and rescue survivors, it is not surprising that all Mobile Garrisons have a supply of medicine onboard. This medicine comes in handy during battles, allowing the crew to attend to the wounds of nearby friendlies.

## Operational History

After the atomic fire that devastated China, the entire country was transformed into wastelands filled with radioactive waste, particles, debris, mutated livestock, and choking fumes. Certain resources suddenly became very rare to the Chinese. However, one resource is held by the Kingdom above all else, and that is the decimated population that still hasn't been subjected to the cloning process. These people are precious, as the only hope for China to repopulate its land (since the clones have no reproduction capabilities).

One major issue was transporting these people safely across the radioactive wasteland to the safety of the vast fallout bunkers of the Atomic Kingdom without them getting killed by the harmful radiation and mutated beasts. A problem that needed to be solved quickly. The survivors were dwindling, prey to the wilderness of the irradiated lands and unknown beasts that lurked in the wastelands.

After a devastating loss of a dozen survivors when their convoy was ambushed by Red Chinese bandits and another five survivors to radiation sickness, the Viceroy was unable to allow any more losses of their last hope. In order to better protect survivors being transported back to strongholds in the future, Atomic Kingdom officials commissioned a vehicle that would serve as an amphibious, sturdy, and durable transport to protect them while traveling across the wasteland. A transport that had a bunker offering protection from the poisonous fallout, radiation, and of course, weapons fire. The transport was armoured with ceramic slabs with lead plating to further protect them from radiation, while a radio turret would dissuade any bandits from interfering, and if surrounded can dig in and sound out an SOS, projecting a large planar shield to defend its passengers until help arrives.

The first few deployments of the new transport were a massive success, so much so that the rescued survivors dubbed it the **"Mobile Garrison"**. The transport proved to be fast and rugged enough to simply plow through the dangerous environment of the wasteland. As the Atomic Kingdom of China occasionally encountered survivors in the wastelands of China during patrols and battles, the Mobile Garrison was assimilated into the army.
