Petra-7

Soon after the new Millennia, mankind's study of Mars revealed a remarkable energy source called Petra-7. Only a few tanks of the precious gas could fuel entire cities for weeks, bottles of it could accelerate crop growth to feed entire continents, and more. As studies on the gas continued, plans to mine, colonize, and terraform Mars were quickly planned and put into operation. With the success of the operation and the transformation of Mars into a habitable planet, humans moved in, leading to an inevitable clash with the Taar over dominion over the planet.

Petra-7 is the backbone of the war effort for both sides. Brozaars and Exploiters set up on vents to pump up the gas and convert it into an energy waveform transmitted to receivers at the base, where it is de-converted into usable material for the production of war materiel and sustaining of operations. Quantities of Petra-7 are usually stored for shipping in containers, which can be seized to boost war production. These are either steel tanks or bioengineered psy-storage units, for either side.
