The '''Power Node''' is a [[Forerunner]] structure present on [[Installation 00]]. | The '''Power Node''' is a [[Forerunner]] structure present on [[Installation 00]]. They serve as part of the Ark's self-sufficiency measures, and act as surface access points to the installation's vast subterranean network of power infrastructure. When accessed, a Power Node can be used to provide auxiliary power for repairs and emergencies on the Ark, or can be tapped by other forces to exploit the installation for their own benefit.{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Forerunner Power Node}} | ||
During the [[Second Ark Conflict]], stranded light years from any support, the strategic importance of Forerunner power nodes was capitalised upon by both the [[United Nations Space Command]] detachment from {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and the [[Banished]]. Banished [[Warmaster]] [[Atriox]] eschews the [[Covenant]]'s reverence for Forerunner artifacts and freely takes control of them for his own ends, and many a battle involves a desperate scramble to capture power nodes before the enemy can.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} | |||

===''Halo Wars 2''=== | |||
In gameplay, Forerunner Power Nodes serve as minor objectives scattered across the map. They are typically defended by 3-5 [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s, who remain neutral to players unless provoked by attempting to attack them or capture the Power Node. Once the Sentinels are dispatched, an infantry unit must be assigned to capture the point - once taken, the point will begin to generate {{HW2Power|[[power]]}} like a [[UNSC Generator]] or Banished [[Power Extractor]]. | |||
