Core Fragments and Combat Loadouts in Pax Autocratica

Pax Autocratica's combat half runs on two systems working together: a 4-skill loadout you build deliberately, and Core Fragments that add roguelite variance on top of it.

The 4-Skill Loadout

Combat loadouts are built around four swappable skills, letting you tailor your playstyle expedition to expedition rather than locking into one fixed build. Since colony policy affects soldier performance, pairing your loadout choices with your governing style is worth considering rather than picking skills in isolation.

Core Fragments

Found while scouting during expeditions, Core Fragments grant a unique set of powerful abilities to both you personally and your soldiers. This is confirmed as a per-expedition system, meaning fragment hunting adds real roguelite variance run to run rather than being a one-time permanent unlock.

Scaling Combat

Confirmed combat scale ranges from small skirmishes up to large mechanized warfare involving infantry, tanks, and mechs -- expect your loadout and fragment choices to matter differently depending on which end of that scale a given expedition falls on.
