Editing Lore


[[File:mom-official-intelligence-fragments-and-computers.jpg|frameless|500px|right|link=|Intelligence Fragments and Computers]]

'''Intelligence Fragments''' and '''Computers''' contains crucial information about the history of the Mars colonization project. 

They reveal hints that will allow to lift the veil and learn the truth about the collapse of Mars which remains a mystery and a potential threat to anyone left behind, but you are able to warn Earth and call for rescue by launching [[Memory Capsule|Memory Capsules]].

Fragments have 4 types/colors:
* [[File:T_ICO_Lore_Fragment_Bell.png|30px|link=|Red]] contains lore in English
* [[File:T_ICO_Lore_Fragment_USC.png|30px|link=|Blue]] contains lore in English
* [[File:T_ICO_Lore_Fragment_Zhao.png|30px|link=|Green]] contains lore in English or Chinese
* [[File:T_ICO_Lore_Fragment_Dozor.png|30px|link=|Yellow]] contains lore in Russian

Usually, you have to find 5 matching fragments and compile them into a durable intelligence storage (computer) where the 5 individual texts are compiled (right-click on computer and click "VIEW") to read all texts.

Most of them are used in the [[Protocols]].
