Phoenix Logs/UNSC Buildings/Garage

Vehicle factory.

The Garage and its kit assembly line allows the requisition of Warthog, Scorpion,

Wolverine, and Kodiak armored vehicles from the Spirit of Fire and unlocks their

upgrade options. This should be one of the first infrastructure upgrades made

to a new firebase, as the Garage constructs vehicles that will remain useful

throughout the mission. Multiple Garages in a firebase reduces armored vehicle

requisition time.

Pelicans and Darters are not rated for transatmospheric transport of most

UNSC combat vehicles, due to the potential for damage and loss of control

during reentry. While travel to and from the surface of the Ark is dramatically

simplified due to its artificial gravity, the Spirit of Fire is not currently configured

to make effective use of this deployment method. Instead, UNSC doctrine

states that when use of heavy lifters and surface staging areas is not available,

combat vehicles can be partially disassembled, "crated" for transport, and then

reassembled near the combat zone.
