Moon Zone

The features discussed here may be implemented in future issues and are subject to change before release.

The Moon Zone is a rumored upcoming zone to City of Heroes, City of Villains, or both. It has been suggested several times, and people browsing the game files insist there is "proof" of such a zone going to be in an upcoming issue.

At this point, however, the only piece of information available is on a forum post by Positron:

• The moon base is called "Armstrong Lunar Facility". The space station is the "Gagarin Orbital Platform".
• Armstrong base and Gagarin station are the common nicknames for the two facilities.
• The IOSC (International Outer Space Consortium) is the international space flight organization.
• None of the above is planned for Issue 11, but it is part of the background for the City Of world.

However, MANY references have been made to the moon, starting with Issue 8 and the reopening of Faultline. Some of them are as follows:

• The dam in Faultline is said to have been ruptured by unusual sesmic activity on the Moon.
• Several Rikti ships were said to have retreated into space following the aftermath of the Rikti War.
• The Circle of Thorns have made casual references in Faultline to a source of power on the moon.
• The Lost frequently speak of a "change" coming and sometimes reference the damage to the dam as part of it.
• In promotional art for Issue 12, there is a large, central shot of the Moon.
• It is possible to see the moon from Ouroboros.
• Manticore and Sister Pysche had their honeymoon on the Moon.
