| Designer Notes |
| While Terranovans may have had their differences, it simply went against the cultural makeup of both hemispheres to make use of environmentally damaging weapons. The Colonial Expeditionary Force, however, had no such compunction, and their use of nuclear/biological/chemical warfare displayed the extent of their ruthlessness. The southern hemisphere was particularly concerned by these attacks, which were conducted mainly near their borders, and the MILICIA quickly had their standard Nightingale converted into an NBC evacucation vehicle. The entire chassis of the Nightingale had its seals reinforced to prevent gasses from entering into the vehicle. The resulting vehicle bore almost no visible differences with the original Nightingale except for the few extra air tanks attached on top. The crew all wore NBC suits and almost invariably carried a few for their patients. The interventions of the NBC Nightingale, while they began late during the War, were often performed during tragic circumstances and conferred to its crew an aura of heroism. |
