Base # 4 name?
I suggest Samurai Complex or Snipers' College
(and time to update the Basename and Unit Inventory)

We could designate the crater bases as "fort" territory (eg Fort Craterwest, Fort Craternorth, etc, or Eastcrater Fort, Southcrater Fort, etc)
But I must admit to liking the more traditional names like Fort Superiority, Fort Liberty, Freedom Fortress, Protection Fortress, etc

Looking at the 2117 map, I'm thinking that Rio Rosso might better describe the river that starts in the Fungal Wall and runs south (where Chiron Knights encountered the mindworm)
(And the river that was Rio Rosso, being fairly small, could become Gunrunners' Creek)
And Base #4 will be established next turn (2118). What's it to be called?

Okay, I'll do it next turn.
Just for the record, the reason I placed Mount Olympus at (62.16) was because I kinda considered the four tiles (61.15)-(62.14)-(63.15)-(62.16) as the summit, and more specifically the point connecting these four tiles, as that seemed to stick out higher than any of the four surrounding tiles.
Btw, on another note, since we'll get our first former next year, I was wondering. Should we also give our terraforming units names (as members of the Engineering Corps) like other military units, or should we leave them in anonimity like civilian workers?

I did it for the 2119 turn

I agree - from the map it does look like that rocky tile (with the pod on it) is the highpoint, but it's only 2792 meters, versus 2872 for the fungal tile southeast of it

Being a militaristic faction I like the idea of the Engineering Corps running our terraforming (Morgan can have his civilian contractors)
Here is a great website chock full of info and pics of US support vehicles (they like names for the non-combatant ones like GRIZZLY, Wolverine and Lynx)

It's kinda cool that our rovers all have unique features. We could come up with some sort of story about how our engineers designed rolling thunder for more rolling and rocky terrain, and how R-112 CRV was designed for flat, tropical climates, etc.
