Overview

Marine Techwebs are unlockable upgrades that improve the overall effectiveness of the marines on the ground. In order to access them they must be deployed via orbital supply drop pods. The Squad Radio Telephone Operators will call them down, allowing marines to access different types of upgrades for themselves.

How to get Points?

Currently, points will generate passively gaining 1 point every minute. Though passive point generation will increase every 20 minutes by 1. So after 20 minutes have passed, passive point gain will reach 2 points every minute and so on and so forth.

In future there will be other ways for the team to gain points, but as of now, it will be passive.
