Megapol: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:08, 1 November 2009

Megapol not only runs the city police force and prison service, it also manufactures vehicles,
weapons and munitions.  It directly competes with the Marsec corporation for lucrative markets
in the mining colonies and Mega-Primus.  The major problems for Megapol are the criminal gangs
that distribute Psiclone and the UFO incursions which are regarded as a threat to city
security.  Police vehicles bravely intercept UFOs as they materialize from the [[Dimensional
Gates]], but they are woefully under equipped to deal with them.

Overview

Megapol runs the city's police, fire, and ambulance services, as well as producing some of the more important weapons and equipment in the game.
They start out friendly to you, and you should keep them that way, because:
- You absolutely need Megapol's weapons early on.
- Megapol officers are some of the most difficult enemies in the game.
- Megapol road and air squad cars are constantly patrolling the city. It would be much more convenient for them to keep shooting at Aliens, rather than at you.
- Police cars may have pitful defense but they can help X-COM in downing UFOs.
If you become enemies with them, the most likely turn of events will end in losing the game.

Unfriendly/Hostile To

Notes

Megapol is the most disliked organization on Mega-Primus, drawing the ire of its six starting enemies together with the Androids) of S.E.L.F. and the Hybrids of Mutant Alliance. It will be a major player during the Cityscape fighting.
