[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/535466136352850184 Dev Diary #6 - Supplies and Equipment]: Describes the supply system and the limits on how much men and materiel a player can bring on a mission, as well as how the [[armor]] system works in battle and [[accessories]] players can attach to their squads for extra benefits.

[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/535466136352851019 Dev Diary #7 - Combat Mechanics and Suppression]: Describes what suppression is in real life and how MENACE incorporates it into tactical battles, the three-stage system used to model it, and how it can be worked around or defeated.

[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/512950040394727467 Dev Diary #9 - Perks and Promotions]: Describes how squad leaders/pilots can grow stronger over time through the promotion system, wherein the player can distribute "experience" (so to speak) and decide which characters can be promoted for new skills, or even demoted if necessary (if you're willing to pay the costs both in wasted experience and the hit to morale).

[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/534342772300185778 Dev Diary #10 - Pirate Faction Preview]: Explores the background, tactics, units, and weaponry of the [[pirates]], one of the [[factions]] the player will have to deal with (either as a friend or foe) in the Wayback system.

[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/515203109058773565 Dev Diary #11 - Action Points and Attack Calculation]: Describes how AP can be used, as in classic games like XCOM, to move and fire, how it can be reduced by suppression and other factors, and provides the detailed damage calculation for attacks based on the weapon's statistics, ideal range, etc. versus the target's armor, etc.

Hotfix #11 fixes some issues introduced with the terrain update yesterday.

Thank you very much for your bug reports and feedback! :)

=Changelog: v0.7.12=

* FIXED Enemies, recoverable objects, and structures sometimes spawned on isolated tiles, which made some objectives unaccomplishable
* FIXED During mission preparation, it isn't possible anymore to place units on large boulders and other blocked tiles
* FIXED Half-cover was sometimes floating in the air

=Known Issues=
* Some antivirus programs incorrectly classify the "GameAssembly.dll" file as malware and delete it, making the game unplayable. If that happens, please whitelist the "GameAssembly.dll" and "Menace.exe".
* If the game is installed on HDD drives, loading times are bad, and barks are delayed.
* Display mode "Fullscreen" sometimes behaves as not expected after minimizing the game. Until this is fixed, please consider using "Fullscreen Window" instead.

Known Issues
Rendering performance needs to be optimized on Backbone, especially for older GPUs.

Some antivirus programs incorrectly classify the "GameAssembly.dll" file as malware and delete it, making the game unplayable. If that happens, please whitelist the "GameAssembly.dll" and "Menace.exe".

If the game is installed on HDD drives, loading times are bad and barks are delayed.

Display mode "Fullscreen" sometimes behaves not as expected, after minimizing the game. Until this is fixed please consider using "Fullscreen Window" instead.

[[File:Faction backbone 1732x480.png|center]]

[[Factions|Click here to go back to Factions Page.]]

The Backbone is temperate, hospitable, and resource-rich, which is what drew the first colonists toward Way-9352, or as it would later be called, the [[Wayback System]]. The faction that rules this planet, while typically referred to as just The Backbone, also calls themselves the "Unbent." They see themselves as the true rulers of the system and have turned their homeworld into a massive military industrial complex. They do not seem to have any hidden or ulterior motives; they are very forward about their intentions of one day ruling the Wayback. At the moment, however, they still must adhere to the [[Planetary Jingwei]]'s restrictions. Thus, they do not possess a great military spacefleet, but rather a highly trained and disciplined ground army, almost comparable to the [[Marines]] of the [[Terran Congressional Republic]].

Rulers of the Backbone come to power via a complicated election process wherein candidates must sacrifice a piece of themselves physically. This ensures that they are all-in for fulfilling the role, and also that they do the best for the very constituents their crippled bodies must now depend upon. [[Xiao Xiao]], the representative of this faction during the player's excursion to the system, apparently gave up her arms for this purpose.

The content below is based on the demo release and needs to be '''updated''' as it may not accurately represent what's currently in-game. {{#if: {{{1|}}}

'''Characters''' are the engine that drives the strategic and tactical gameplay of MENACE. They lead squads of infantry or pilot vehicles during missions, representing and coordinating the elements you deploy, and can grow to have either positive or negative relationships with each other, influencing their combat performance. They are all unique, pre-written personalities each with their own background, preferences, and goals. You begin with a selection of characters from the [[Terran Congressional Republic]] [[Marines]], but you can and will be expected to recruit more from the various factions of the [[Wayback System]] itself. They can die permanently in battle, and if you lose too many, your campaign will end in failure.

Characters can be divided into two types: Squad Leaders and Pilots. Squad Leaders are the command element of infantry units, operating a unique weapon (if chosen) while the other elements, called [[Squaddies]], are generic grunts who can be renamed at the player's behest but have no unique dialogue or personalities. Each squaddie represents a percentage of the infantry unit's HP, and a squaddie dies when the unit's HP is reduced by that percentage, weakening its [[morale]] as well as its number of attacks per turn. If a unit's HP is completely depleted and all its squaddies have been eliminated, the remaining Squad Leader is incapacitated, or "bleeding out," and must be "stabilized" by another Squad Leader before he or she is lost permanently. '''Vehicles cannot stabilize injured Squad Leaders, or rescue Pilots!''' A stabilized squad leader cannot be used for the rest of the battle but will not die.[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/512947503265480934]

Pilots command vehicles such as tanks, armored personnel carriers, and bipedal combat walkers (mechs). They are incapacitated and must be rescued when their vehicle has suffered critical damage and has been destroyed.

Both Squad Leaders and Pilots have skills in a Perk Tree that can be unlocked as they gain experience and are promoted through surviving tactical battles. While some skills are shared among different characters' perk trees, each character has a special unique perk entirely unique to him or her. Characters also have their own statistics (AP, Discipline, etc). [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/512947503265480934]

Each character in the game has their own origin, history, and reason for joining your outfit--the [[Marines]] you start with, for instance, will primarily be loyal to the [[Terran Congressional Republic]], whereas natives of [[Wayback System|the Wayback]] will likely be more suspicious of the TCR and much more loyal to their home planets (or just cold, hard cash). Various [[Events]] the player may encounter might be more favorable to the interests of the TCR over the natives (or vice versa), meaning your decisions run the risk of alienating units from a certain background while pleasing others. Careful management of these factors is crucial in maintaining your [[Authority]] and thus ensuring the ultimate success of your mission.

== Properties of Characters ==
<tabber>
|-|Attributes and Combat Stats =

Each squad leader/pilot has a set of attributes, from which their combat stats are derived. Squad leaders have seven attributes, while pilots have five.

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Attribute !! Corresp. Stat !! Description of the Stat !! SL/Pilots?
|-
| style="width: 8%" | Agility
| style="width: 12%" | '''[[Action Points]]'''
| AP are spent for every action. Once all AP are spent, the current unit's turn ends automatically. AP are fully refreshed each turn.
| Both
|-
| Weapon Skill
| '''[[Accuracy]]'''
| Determines the chance of hitting a target without any modifiers, like distance and cover.
| Both
|-
| Valour
| '''[[Discipline]]'''
| General discipline of a unit. Reduces the amount of suppression suffered from an attack, and determines how easily a unit will break morale and waver or flee.
| Both
|-
| Toughness
| '''[[Damage Reduction]]'''
| Modifies any damage the unit suffers. This can be negative, the unit suffers more damage, or positive, the unit suffers less damage.
| SL only
|-
| Vitality
| '''[[Hitpoints]]'''
| Hitpoints represent the damage a unit can take before being destroyed. Once these reach zero, the unit is considered dead or destroyed.
| SL only
|-
| Precision
| '''[[Critical Chance]]'''
| Determines the chance to score a critical hit, for 50% more damage. This is calculated for each repetition of an attack individually.
| Both
|-
| Positioning
| '''[[Defense]]'''
| The defence is subtracted from any enemy accuracy that attacks this unit.
| Both
|}

Squad leaders and pilots have four more stats that are not derived from the attributes above:

{|class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Stat !! Description
|-
| style="width: 10%" | [[File:Armor Value Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Armor Value]]'''
| Depends on the armor the squad has equipped. Higher armor value requires more penetration to inflict damage; durability decreases with each successfull stop of a bullet.
|-
| [[File:Detection Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Detection]]'''
| The ability to spot concealed units on the battlefield. Reduces an enemy unit’s concealment when calculating whether it is visible to this unit or not.
|-
| [[File:Concealment Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Concealment]]'''
| The ability to stay hidden from enemy sight even when within their view range. Each point of concealment reduces the effective view range of enemies against this unit by 1.
|-
| [[File:View Range Icon.png|25px]] '''[[View Range]]'''
| Determines how many tiles a unit can see on the battlefield, revealing enemies and lifting the fog of war. Concealment can hide enemies even when inside the view range.
|}

Additionally, all characters start with one [[Perks#Unique Perks|unique starting perk]] already unlocked. These perks vary greatly between characters and are designed to make each character feel unique.
Furthermore, each character has their own [[Perks|Perk Tree]] that can be unlocked through [[promotions]]. While not all perks are unique to each character, the selection and order of unlocks will differ.

|-|Character Quality Level and Costs=
Each character has a star rating of 1-3★. This determines their [[Supply_Cost#Base_personnel_cost|base supply cost]], [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Cost Factor|promotion cost factor]] and [[Supply_Cost#Squaddie_tax_(infantry_squads)|squaddie tax]].
{|class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Stat !! Description
|-
| style="width: 10%" | [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Cost Factor|Promotion Cost Factor]]
| A multiplier to the number of Promotion Points required to promote a character.
|-
| [[Growth Potential]]
| The chance of increasing a stat every time a unit takes an associated action. For example, hitting an enemy has a chance to permanently increase accuracy. Higher growth potential will lead to stats increasing faster.
|-
| [[Supply Cost]]
| The amount of supplies it costs to deploy this unit on a mission. The total cost of a unit is further increased by other factors, like equipment costs and number of squaddies.
|}

|-|Promotion and Demotion=
:''↪ Main article: [[Promotion and Demotion]]''

Squad leaders and pilots can be promoted with [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Points|promotion points]] that are earned, for example, through completing missions. Promoting a character does not happen automatically. It must be done by the player.

The cost of promoting the same character increases with each promotion, and also scales based on [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Scaling Factor|Promotion Scaling Factor]], which itself is based on the character's star rating. The higher the character's rating, the greater the promotion point cost.

Characters can hold one of eight [[Promotion and Demotion#Ranks|ranks]], ranging from (1) Lance Corporal to (8) Master Gunnery Sergeant.

It is possible to demote a character. Although half of the invested promotion points will be refunded, the affected leader will not be pleased.

The content below is based on the demo release and needs to be '''updated''' as it may not accurately represent what's currently in-game. {{#if: {{{1|}}}
|''{{{1}}}''
|}}
|}
'''Characters''' are the engine that drives the strategic and tactical gameplay of MENACE. They lead squads of infantry or pilot vehicles during missions, representing and coordinating the elements you deploy, and can grow to have either positive or negative relationships with each other, influencing their combat performance. They are all unique, pre-written personalities each with their own background, preferences, and goals. You begin with a selection of characters from the [[Terran Congressional Republic]] [[Marines]], but you can and will be expected to recruit more from the various factions of the [[Wayback System]] itself. They can die permanently in battle, and if you lose too many, your campaign will end in failure.

Characters can be divided into two types: Squad Leaders and Pilots. Squad Leaders are the command element of infantry units, operating a unique weapon (if chosen) while the other elements, called [[Squaddies]], are generic grunts who can be renamed at the player's behest but have no unique dialogue or personalities. Each squaddie represents a percentage of the infantry unit's HP, and a squaddie dies when the unit's HP is reduced by that percentage, weakening its [[morale]] as well as its number of attacks per turn. If a unit's HP is completely depleted and all its squaddies have been eliminated, the remaining Squad Leader is incapacitated, or "bleeding out," and must be "stabilized" by another Squad Leader before he or she is lost permanently. '''Vehicles cannot stabilize injured Squad Leaders, or rescue Pilots!''' A stabilized squad leader cannot be used for the rest of the battle but will not die.[https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/512947503265480934]

Pilots command vehicles such as tanks, armored personnel carriers, and bipedal combat walkers (mechs). They are incapacitated and must be rescued when their vehicle has suffered critical damage and has been destroyed.

Both Squad Leaders and Pilots have skills in a Perk Tree that can be unlocked as they gain experience and are promoted through surviving tactical battles. While some skills are shared among different characters' perk trees, each character has a special unique perk entirely unique to him or her. Characters also have their own statistics (AP, Discipline, etc). [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2432860/view/512947503265480934]

Each character in the game has their own origin, history, and reason for joining your outfit--the [[Marines]] you start with, for instance, will primarily be loyal to the [[Terran Congressional Republic]], whereas natives of [[Wayback System|the Wayback]] will likely be more suspicious of the TCR and much more loyal to their home planets (or just cold, hard cash). Various [[Events]] the player may encounter might be more favorable to the interests of the TCR over the natives (or vice versa), meaning your decisions run the risk of alienating units from a certain background while pleasing others. Careful management of these factors is crucial in maintaining your [[Authority]] and thus ensuring the ultimate success of your mission.

== Properties of Characters ==
<tabber>
|-|Attributes and Combat Stats =

Each squad leader/pilot has a set of attributes, from which their combat stats are derived. Squad leaders have seven attributes, while pilots have five.

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Attribute !! Corresp. Stat !! Description of the Stat !! SL/Pilots?
|-
| style="width: 8%" | Agility
| style="width: 12%" | '''[[Action Points]]'''
| AP are spent for every action. Once all AP are spent, the current unit's turn ends automatically. AP are fully refreshed each turn.
| Both
|-
| Weapon Skill
| '''[[Accuracy]]'''
| Determines the chance of hitting a target without any modifiers, like distance and cover.
| Both
|-
| Valour
| '''[[Discipline]]'''
| General discipline of a unit. Reduces the amount of suppression suffered from an attack, and determines how easily a unit will break morale and waver or flee.
| Both
|-
| Toughness
| '''[[Damage Reduction]]'''
| Modifies any damage the unit suffers. This can be negative, the unit suffers more damage, or positive, the unit suffers less damage.
| SL only
|-
| Vitality
| '''[[Hitpoints]]'''
| Hitpoints represent the damage a unit can take before being destroyed. Once these reach zero, the unit is considered dead or destroyed.
| SL only
|-
| Precision
| '''[[Critical Chance]]'''
| Determines the chance to score a critical hit, for 50% more damage. This is calculated for each repetition of an attack individually.
| Both
|-
| Positioning
| '''[[Defense]]'''
| The defence is subtracted from any enemy accuracy that attacks this unit.
| Both
|}

Squad leaders and pilots have four more stats that are not derived from the attributes above:

{|class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Stat !! Description
|-
| style="width: 10%" | [[File:Armor Value Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Armor Value]]'''
| Depends on the armor the squad has equipped. Higher armor value requires more penetration to inflict damage; durability decreases with each successfull stop of a bullet.
|-
| [[File:Detection Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Detection]]'''
| The ability to spot concealed units on the battlefield. Reduces an enemy unit’s concealment when calculating whether it is visible to this unit or not.
|-
| [[File:Concealment Icon.png|25px]] '''[[Concealment]]'''
| The ability to stay hidden from enemy sight even when within their view range. Each point of concealment reduces the effective view range of enemies against this unit by 1.
|-
| [[File:View Range Icon.png|25px]] '''[[View Range]]'''
| Determines how many tiles a unit can see on the battlefield, revealing enemies and lifting the fog of war. Concealment can hide enemies even when inside the view range.
|}

Additionally, all characters start with one [[Perks#Unique Perks|unique starting perk]] already unlocked. These perks vary greatly between characters and are designed to make each character feel unique.
Furthermore, each character has their own [[Perks|Perk Tree]] that can be unlocked through [[promotions]]. While not all perks are unique to each character, the selection and order of unlocks will differ.

|-|Character Quality Level and Costs=
Each character has a star rating of 1-3★. This determines their [[Supply_Cost#Base_personnel_cost|base supply cost]], [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Cost Factor|promotion cost factor]] and [[Supply_Cost#Squaddie_tax_(infantry_squads)|squaddie tax]].
{|class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! Stat !! Description
|-
| style="width: 10%" | [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Cost Factor|Promotion Cost Factor]]
| A multiplier to the number of Promotion Points required to promote a character.
|-
| [[Growth Potential]]
| The chance of increasing a stat every time a unit takes an associated action. For example, hitting an enemy has a chance to permanently increase accuracy. Higher growth potential will lead to stats increasing faster.
|-
| [[Supply Cost]]
| The amount of supplies it costs to deploy this unit on a mission. The total cost of a unit is further increased by other factors, like equipment costs and number of squaddies.
|}

|-|Promotion and Demotion=
:''↪ Main article: [[Promotion and Demotion]]''

Squad leaders and pilots can be promoted with [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Points|promotion points]] that are earned, for example, through completing missions. Promoting a character does not happen automatically. It must be done by the player.

The cost of promoting the same character increases with each promotion, and also scales based on [[Promotion and Demotion#Promotion Scaling Factor|Promotion Scaling Factor]], which itself is based on the character's star rating. The higher the character's rating, the greater the promotion point cost.

Characters can hold one of eight [[Promotion and Demotion#Ranks|ranks]], ranging from (1) Lance Corporal to (8) Master Gunnery Sergeant.

It is possible to demote a character. Although half of the invested promotion points will be refunded, the affected leader will not be pleased.

[[Factions|Click here to go back to Factions Page.]]

The Backbone is temperate, hospitable, and resource-rich, which is what drew the first colonists toward Way-9352, or as it would later be called, the [[Wayback System]]. The faction that rules this planet, while typically referred to as just The Backbone, also calls themselves the "Unbent." They see themselves as the true rulers of the system and have turned their homeworld into a massive military industrial complex. They do not seem to have any hidden or ulterior motives; they are very forward about their intentions of one day ruling the Wayback. At the moment, however, they still must adhere to the [[Planetary Jingwei]]'s restrictions. Thus, they do not possess a great military spacefleet, but rather a highly trained and disciplined ground army, almost comparable to the [[Marines]] of the [[Terran Congressional Republic]].

Rulers of the Backbone come to power via a complicated election process wherein candidates must sacrifice a piece of themselves physically. This ensures that they are all-in for fulfilling the role, and also that they do the best for the very constituents their crippled bodies must not depend upon. [[Xiao Xiao]], the representative of this faction during the player's excursion to the system, apparently gave up her arms for this purpose.
