I believe map Icon descriptions are in the NeoArchanist file. The ... what? The ... where?  You're right. Also, the ARMOR icon I think is not used either. It is now a black and red jacket. Hmm, another one i just noticed that's missing the Phone and cable one that signifies a place to be able to call. At least 1 icon of those in map that I can see. The "RED PADLOCK" all signify safe houses? The "Yellow/cream/white PADLOCK" No idea what special use this icon has. rabid |

The armour is now red and back, indeed.
Red padlocks are safe houses.
When we get missions where we have to break into buildings, the yellow padlocks will be places where we can break into. They may have other uses. They aren't used now except that you can pick up and deliver from them.

There edited added, cropped and etc the picture as best I could in short notice. Also, remember people, if you know the answer to one of the questions. Post it here so I can add it. Don't put all the work on Cory and Andrew. They are busy making Heroes of Steel  rabid |

Can anyone provide data on when the Pacific Corp Wars occurred?
Recent enough to have a veteran of that war as a character in my story?
If that war is ancient history what wars are more current. I would really like to draw on some back ground for a merc character.
If no one can provide any details I shall be forced to make it up myself regardless of your precious canon of history!
BUUUWWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAA!

Question 23. Pacific Corp Wars added. grävling: Yes I didn't add the phone icon because it rather confuses me. The Data Terminals do the same thing no? Why have a phone Icon at all? rabid |

Why have a phone Icon at all? rabid Data terminals are a dedicated location for public access. The phone icon indicates a building with matrix access. |

Every day life question?
Do people have cell/smart phones?
Is the PDA the same as a smart phone/mini computer?
If not how do people communicate if not by cell phone?
Do people have wide spread internet access like we do today, ie in their homes on their phones etc?
I can't imagine a high tech future without these things but thought I would double check.

HI guys. I did a search on Google, curious to match the map with the dome zones, and found that the dome zones encompass about 1.2 square miles, total.
That got me thinking about population. Boston population is around 12.2k people per square mile, or 14, 640ish people for 1.2 square miles.
With those numbers I started thinking about mega crowded conditions which can only exist when the infrastructure is able to uphold the waste disposal of so many. We can safely agree that New Boston Zone isn't able to do that, but, suspending a little of my disbelieve I went and added 50 percent more people. So let's say the Map zones have 22k people (rounded up).
That's not enough people to uphold as blood thirsty a setting as Cyberknights along with the size of the "towers" that uphold the Dome.
So: Does the CK map encompass all of the NBZ Dome area or does the dome extend much further out and the zone map only holds a small area of the whole?
