Yesterday's exciting patch brought many changes but the most appreciated was Military Surplus buildings. Players can now buy and sell equipment, which not only makes them more effective in combat, but jump starts the economy. Haven't had a chance to look at the system or not sure how it works? We've put together an illustrated overview which explains every function.

As recruits, everyone was given their standard issue shotgun and pistol with the completion of Boot Camp. As time went on you traded them in for bigger and better weaponry by completing missions or stripping the dead. How many times have you found yourself holding a piece of totally useless gear that would benefit another soldier? Continuing the human tradition of Capitalism, the AFS is now proud to offer you the opportunity to use the new Military Surplus system, where players can find and trade equipment better suited to their combat role.

Check out everything the Military Surplus system has to offer in our nifty overview and be sure to stop by our forums to discuss this and more about the Military Surplus system.
