All soldiers are able to equip themselves with a portable mortar from their tablet, although skill levels vary, they're easy to use and hard to master. To better aid in target acquisition, cameras are attached to mortar shells until destroyed by impact. Their major role plays into denying sector control and keeping enemies at bay once they're honed in, communication is key to avoid any unforeseen consequences.
Factions battle it out on varied islands, all fighting for control of villages, outposts, and other points of interest in order to gain initiative to bleed the other team dry of reinforcements. Although any sector can be captured at any time, they must be linked to their factions' main base to gain any sector points; this gives opportunities for soldiers to break links of vital sectors to prevent the enemy team from maintaining initiative in the tug of war.
New American Coalition is a combination task force between United States of America and Canada, their core objective is to capture territories across the world where presence of plutonium may have been sighted. Any trace of it will have the NAC calling, in order to further boost their space travel and technological advancements.
United Communist Front is a merged Russian and Chinese alliance, begrudgingly working together to bolster their independent space agencies, they've already destroyed most of the competing satellites in low orbit, with their sights on space stations and beyond, they won't stop until they get a foothold above their adversaries and acquire further plutonium in this newly charged space race.
