Conflict Zones
Thessia:
The asari homeworld is the core of the largest economy in the Milky Way, due largely to reserves of element zero so vast they affect its price galaxy-wide. Thessia is home to abundant life that has evolved in an eezo-rich environment, leading to a wealth of biotically active species and many more that simply resist eezo's negative effects. Under normal peacetime conditions, travel to the planet is strictly controlled, but even the best efforts of many governments cannot prevent constant smuggling attempts. ALLIANCE ADVISORY: Dust-form element zero can be present in minute amounts in Thessian food and water supplies; however, this has no documented benefits to sapient non-asari species. Non-asari are encouraged to select "visitor" versions of local cuisine, which are kept free of eezo.
Tuchanka: *NEW*
"It's a miserable place to live, but it's a more miserable place to die," said turian general Rilix Aescorus of the krogan homeworld when he first set foot on it. Death comes in many forms on Tuchanka, from the radioactive fallout spread by the krogan's nuclear war, to the lethal heat from the reduced planetary albedo, to vicious and predatory animal life. This is to say nothing of the krogan themselves, whose internal clan wars continue to this day. Fortunately for the rest of the galaxy, krogan warfare rarely spills out from the planet -- the Citadel Navy, under the auspices of the Council Demilitarization Enforcement Mission, maintains a ban on the krogan ever building warships. Every few years, another krogan warlord violates the law, but usually an alliance of rivals ends his dreams of hegemony before the Citadel Navy even has to fire a shot.

Enemy Recon
Cerberus Trooper:
Fearless, disciplined and unrelenting, Cerberus Assault Troopers are the backbone of the Illusive Man's army. Outfitted with custom-designed armor and rifles, these well-equipped soldiers function with determined precision. The first to rush in to a fight, the assault troopers are often supported by more powerful units on the battlefield. As the galaxy crumbles, their loyalty to Cerberus only grows more absolute.
Cerberus Centurion: *NEW*
Cerberus Centurions are frontline tacticians that fight alongside their soldiers. These squadron leaders carry out high-level instructions laid out by the Illusive Man. How the Illusive Man recruited and trained such a large number of top-line battlefield commanders is a worrying mystery. Cerberus, once comprised of small, covert cells of agents, is now a burgeoning and unconcealed threat to the galaxy. In the face of the immediate Reaper threat, Alliance Intelligence has scuttled their attempts to infiltrate Cerberus to find out how the Illusive Man managed to quickly swell his organization’s ranks. The only useful intel gathered on the Centurions are their armaments. Each Centurion carries a modified M-96 Mattock that launches smoke grenades to blind their targets, making their enemies vulnerable to vicious crossfire they can no longer see.

Weapon Details
Falcon Assault Rifle:
The Falcon assault rifle launches 25mm mini-grenades, which are "married" to a range-finding laser on the weapon itself. This allows precise detonation on impact with any target. Though the Falcon burns through its specialized ammunition as well as standard thermal clips, it comes with a field fabrication kit to generate more ammunition, leaving thermal clips as its only real limitation.
The Atlas: *NEW*
"Strong as a semi, and just as maneuverable" is how Cerberus soldiers describe the Atlas Infantry Fighting Exoskeleton. Cerberus' research arm sought to combine the deadly armor and firepower of a YMIR mech with the tactical superiority of a trained human pilot, and in this respect they succeeded admirably. The Atlas features an antipersonnel mass accelerator, armor-piercing missiles, and an element zero core that allows it to be air-dropped onto a battlefield with minimal impact damage. Its thick armor includes a transparent shield that protects its operator and allows for good visibility. The shield is made from a polycrystalline material proprietary to Cerberus – Alliance engineers can only hypothesize that it is some kind of synthetic sapphire composite with interlayers to avoid cracking and thermal damage. Whatever it is, it's been the end of many opponents who thought they could put a bullet through it, only to find that they’ve leaned out of cover and angered the pilot of a very deadly war machine.
