Appendix CAbout this server, in its own words

BattleZone.gg HARDCORE PvE - an unforgiving wasteland. THE NPCs - Vanilla damage, but 20% more health than our standard PvE server. - Five tiers on every monument, identical by day and night. - Sniper nests at Launch Site, Water Treatment, Trainyard, Airfield and both Oil Rigs have no range cap. Cross that open ground and you are already losing. THE ECONOMY - Gold Coin is the premium currency, scrap is bulk. No balances, no transfers - you carry what you earn. - Found in crates, hackable crates, supply drops, the labs and on NPC corpses. - Spent on Heli Signals at Large Barn and on chartering the Cargo Ship. THE EVENTS - Bradley every 45-65 minutes behind a reinforced escort. - The Patrol Helicopter is never random. Buy a Heli Signal - six tiers, Easy through Nightmare - and call it down when you are ready for it. - Cargo Ship is chartered on demand, not waited for. - Raidable Bases open across the wipe: Easy at once, Medium 24h, Hard 72h, Expert 120h, Nightmare on day 7. - 300 lone zombies roam the map, all wipe long. - Bounty contracts mark a live target on the map. Cuff it - do not kill it. THE RULES - No Tech Tree - everything is found, bought or raided for - Top-tier weapons cannot be repaired - Gear wears out faster, and NPC hits break it off you - 5 sleeping bags - No building in caves - Minimal river food and road junkpiles; minimal ocean-surface loot
