Tundran Territories: Difference between revisions

The fourth and final mission begins with Tundran forces defending their Radar Array from a group of [[Xylvania]]n tanks. Marshal Nova sends a wing of Gunships as reinforcements shortly after. The Tundran forces must fight their way to the north, liberating [[Western Frontier|Frontier]] and [[Solar Empire|Solar]] POWs along the way. The [[Alliance of Nations]] is reformed! Near Tundra's far-northern border, [[Kaiser Vlad]] has constructed a monstrous machine that he calls the Mining Spider, which is drilling down into the glacier to retrieve the [[Staff of Qa-Len]]. After destroying the three generators powering the machine's shield, the Alliance attacks for all it's worth. Tundra's [[Battlestation]] is the only thing strong enough to damage it, so the other units assault the [[Xylvania]]n forces in the meantime. Upon their victory, Vlad and Ubel are forced to descend into the chasm below, where they are blocked from exiting by fallen rocks and debris.

* The Tundran Territories seems to draw inspiration from both the [[wikipedia:Russian Empire|Russian Empire]] and the [[wikipedia:Soviet Union|Soviet Union]]. While the head of state is a monarch like with the former, its coat of arms is a clenched fist and is colored red; both of which are associated with communism, the ideology of the USSR. It also has political officers to ensure loyalty of conscripts to the government and prevent mutinies.<ref>''Battalion Wars 2'' Unit Dossier: Tundran Territories Frigate</ref>

* The turnip has great importance in Tundran society. For example, the value of a Tundran Battleship is equivalent to 30,000 turnips.
