The Sludge Fen
An oil platform on Lake Nazferiti.
Oil platforms, a.k.a. oil derricks or oil rigs, are large structures resting on massive pylons that pump oil from oil patches in oceans and lakes. It is not to be confused with the Oil Refinery. Harvested oil is ofted refined into phlogiston.
The largest oil fields in the Second War were off the coast of Khaz Modan.
Alliance Oil Platform[]
Harvesting vast amounts of oil beneath the sea is critical to the construction of ships and war machines. Because the oceans are rich with this substance, Tankers must construct platforms where the oil is plentiful. Only then can the tankers collect their dark cargo.[1] (W2Man #?)
Horde Oil Platform[]
The vast amounts of oil beneath the sea must be used in the construction of ships and various war machines. The oceans are rich with this substance, and so Tankers construct platforms where oil is most plentiful. Only then can the tankers collect their dark cargo.[1] (W2Man #?)
