Original War – Campaign bases
During the campaign we will encounter a number of bases, both friendly and enemy. This article will outline the most important bases.
Russian bases
- S. M. Kirov
- L. P. Beria
- V. I. Lenin
- V. A. Ovsyenko
- M. N. Tukhachevsky
- L. D. Trotsky
- A. I. Yegorov
- M. N. Ryutin
- Y. E. Yakir
- M. A. Budonny
- V. K. Bluekher
Aside from the listed ones, the campaign also features smaller, more temporary bases which are not crucial objectives within the campaign itself.
Naming conventions
Each base has a different naming convention based on the nation it was built by:
Americans – uses the letters of the greek alphabet as base names (eg. Alpha, Beta, Gamma).
Russians – bases are named after well known heroes of the state, both past and present (eg. S. M. Kirov [from: Sergei Mironovich Kirov], V. I. Lenin [from: Vladimir Ilyich Lenin]).
Arabs – they name their bases after major islamic cities, but adding the prefix “New” to distinct the base from the actual location (eg. New Kabul).
Alliance – use words of idealistic values, in this case pertaining to progress and independence (eg. Freedom).
Building bases
Some campaign missions set a goal of founding or building up a primary base which will have a certain impact on the progression of the story. Primary bases are denoted by their base name being shown on top of their depot or warehouse. A primary base can be destroyed by eliminating that depot or warehouse.
If a mission goal requires building up a base from scratch, the depot must be placed in the selected area in order to be recognised as the centrepoint of the new base.
Only one depot can be part of a primary base. If another is built nearby, it will not be counted as part of that particular base (it will not have the base’s name placed on top of it).
