Tours under the Dome. Combond — universal currency of CRONUS



Once again on the screens of your terminals is the latest issue of "CRONUS Weekly"! This week we will continue our tour under the Dome, tell you about one of the most famous observation decks and share information about new advertising opportunities. You also expect a review of Combonds — the universal currency of CRONUS.

Nashville Observation Deck




The observation deck is one of the most interesting places on the Nashville site. All the most important equipment is installed here: ventilation shafts, meteorological sensors and radio system. The site itself, for the most part, is an image project: here, at a height of 96 meters, binoculars are installed, through which you can view most of the Dome in the smallest detail.

If on duty you are directed to Nashville station, be sure to visit this place and enjoy the stunning view.

CRONUS Advertisement Billboards




The infrastructure of CRONUS is growing as fast as ever. This is no longer just a small base for artifact research. It is a whole ecosystem of security objects, scientific complexes, residential buildings and transshipment points. Exclusive billboards of the corporation are installed almost everywhere. They will be the best solution to promote your products under the Dome.

If you are interested in this offer, be sure to contact a Silver Wing representative from one of the terminals. Hurry up, the number of billboards is limited.

Combond — Universal Currency of CRONUS




We are often asked how much does a Dome ticket cost and how much money they should take with them.

Once under the Dome, you should forget about the money in general. Anyone can get under the Dome by filling out the application form of a CRONUS candidate. Thanks to the "Clean List" program, it is available even for people with a difficult past.

Combonds are universal currency developed by the CRONUS committee. There is no point in worrying about your financial situation anymore. Each employee of the corporation receives a fair salary corresponding to their work and can spend this money at their own discretion on new equipment, clothing and entertainment.

Scanner, bolts and equipment. Essential items under the Dome.



Once again the latest issue of "CRONUS Weekly" is on the screens of your terminals! This week we will tell you about basic necessities under the Dome. CRONUS Corporation cares about the well-being and safety of employees, that’s why these items are provided to the rookies absolutely free of charge.

Scanner CAERUS




Right now tens of thousands of people are working at the facilities of the corporation under the Dome. They conduct dozens of scientific expeditions daily, study relics, build modern security facilities, scientific complexes and residential buildings for employees.

Scanner is the main tool for collecting valuable scientific data, as well as a favorite "toy" of the White Wing. After scanning, all data about relics, corpses and mechanisms are synchronized with the common database. We invented a unique way to collect the most accurate scientific library in the world!

Bolts




It is difficult to find a person under the Dome who does not have a pair of metal bolts in his pockets. Who would have thought that the best way to neutralize anomalies would be these little helpers. One good throw, and you have just a few seconds at your disposal for safe passage through a terrible anomaly.

Rookie equipment




In addition to technical equipment, each rookie receives combat equipment and personal weapons corresponding to the Wing of the Corporation. Of course, not everyone is allowed to own firearms or energy weapons. But even beginners from the Orange Wing are entitled to self-protection equipment. To get everything you need, immediately after arrival, visit warehouses and talk to Sydney Maynard and Margarita Tkachenko.

Note: Due to the cost optimization, it was decided to remove the headgear and gloves from the issued set. But you can buy them separately from Sydney's warehouse.

Feature film «Factions that divided the Dome»



Welcome, dear employees and subscribers! In the latest issue of "CRONUS Weekly" we will tell you about interesting and promising vacant positions, share a new feature film and tell you about other creative feats of talented employees.

Feature film «Factions that divided the Dome»


[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

The CRONUS management has repeatedly expressed its support for the creative initiatives of its employees. Today we are pleased to present the feature film "Factions that divided the Dome". The plot of the film will tell you about the importance of having one centralized management system. Without strict control, the society would be plunged into chaos and endless war for power.

Before starting your work, CRONUS strongly recommends that you read the list of allowed topics in advance. Otherwise, the Committee may impose a ban on your film production at any time.

Manager of Cafe or Gas Station




*Roadside Picnic is a transshipment point, as well as one of the most popular facilities under the Dome.

Don't worry that you might not have enough qualifications to work at CRONUS. Especially if you have difficulty finding a job in the outside world. Now all this is in the past for you.

Administrator of a transshipment point is one of the most popular positions under the Dome, for which neither experience nor additional education is needed. The northern and eastern parts of the Dome are covered with a developed network of highways with related infrastructure: cafes, motels and, of course, gas stations.

Right now there are more than a dozen and a half gas stations, but the CRONUS management expects to increase their number to 50 within two years. So, if you have been dreaming of your own nice place for a long time, then immediately go under the Dome. You will not find a more promising place in the whole world.

Prohibited topics for creative endeavors




Today we managed to get a picture of one of the paintings, confiscated from employees, called "Maze of Death". We support creative freedom, but we strongly recommend avoiding propaganda of violence. Just look at this "work of art" and imagine what is going on in the author's head. By the way, all his "masterpieces" have already been confiscated and he was taken to the medical center for psychological examination.

By the way, last year the most popular costume was of a desert raider, more than 95% of participants came in this appearance. And this is smart, because it is always worth keeping a humanoid form, to not provoke the defense systems of the Corporation.

*The CRONUS administration reserves the right to have a detailed inspection of any costume at the celebration in order to avoid entering of unexplored life forms on the territory.

Ancestors festival




Not only the Dome is famous for thematic parties. People around the world are celebrating this event. So our friends from a friendly corporation decided to celebrate Halloween with a special festival.

On October 29, the first seasonal event in the history of Against The Moon, the Ancestral Halloween Festival, is waiting for all of us. Get ready to meet new enemies and fight in a completely new type of battles, puzzles. A new story campaign, unique Pumpkin opponents and exciting battles with the strongest monsters await you.

Which costume to pick?




It is easy to stand out from the crowd with original outfits, the main thing is attention to details. Despite the simplicity of execution, there is something frightening in this predatory look of the beast. Cunning, deviousness and keenness — these are the qualities most often attributed to foxes. Do you think it's just a great costume or a true soul expression through a suit?
