"Our area for today is the Arcadia desert. These wind-swept dunes make for rough terrain for our combatants. The sands small grains get EVERYWHERE, and improperly sealed joints can easily get gumm'd up. Take one wrong step and you'll see our contestants sinking into the sand itself. The gentle dunes don't provide much cover either but our contestants will have plenty to hide behind if they need it thanks to the arena terrain provided by
Stellar Arms. Each monolothic slab in the arena today is the same armor composite used by armed forces throughout space. By using a lightweight high strength fiber to construct empty cells and then filling it with local dirt these barriers are cheap to produced, effective at stopping ANYTHING, and can be rapidly built..." - Thad Tharsis
