Fire Child Tournament of the Ancients FAQ

It’s quite long and weirdly formatted, but it’s under a read more for archival purposes.

AOL TOURNAMENT OF THE ANCIENTS FAQ© 2007 Sarbakan Inc. All Rights Reserved. 8Locations The competition takes place in the ruins of an ancient arena and the dark corridors that cut through its foundation. The Mana’jhi arena was one of the testing grounds for the ancients. Located on an island north of the Damara, the three-floor arena is divided into two distinctive sections. The central arena, where testing takes place, gives them the opportunity to validate the resistance of their invention. The ancient warriors and the machine fought in this place for the evolution of their people. The resting areas around the central arena are buildings with eight regeneration cells and two large rooms. Spawn rooms (cells) The cell includes a specific mechanism that teleports warriors when the test becomes too dangerous combined with a healing pod. A weapon dispenser is also available. Cells are safe areas with one-way force fields forbidding machines to enter. To incite lazy warriors to do their jobs, after a certain time, the cell overflows with Fury causing some pain. Flag rooms The two large rooms were built later to expand the test to verify the machine’s adaptation to different strategies. A fury core (flag) is placed in each room as an object to be retrieved. The core must be brought back to the core collector on the second floor on the opposite side of the arena. Fury barriers Some Fury barriers are activated each time a test starts. The barriers block paths and force warriors to adapt their tactics. The arena of Mana’jhi Island is the perfect place for the Exiled and the Wanangi braves to train without disturbing the peace of Damara. AOL TOURNAMENT OF THE ANCIENTS FAQ© 2007 Sarbakan Inc.

Some Fury Orbs can be found lying on the ground or inside machines, while others are spawned when an enemy has been defeated.Red Fury Orb (Small): Heals a small amount of life points (LP).Red Fury Orb (Large): Heals large amounts of life points (LP). Blue Fury Orb (Small): Gives small amounts of Fury (LP). Sphere (Visual and final name are TBD during the visual research) The spheres are power-ups for specific units. Spheres can be found lying on the ground. The effect is doubled if the right unit gets it. Defender Sphere: Increases armor points (AP). Enforcer Sphere: Increases weapon damage for a limited time.
