Some distance from the city, a Puddle Jumper is ‘flying’ under the ocean. On board, Doctor Elizabeth Weir is sitting beside Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard as he pilots the ship towards the ocean floor. Behind Elizabeth, Ronon Dex sits and yawns in boredom. At slack tide off Red Hook, Brooklyn, there are usually lots of things floating in the water: Accursed Slitherblade, Aendel Windspear, Acidic Swamp Ooze, Magis Sparkmantle, Magistrate Marduke, and Xandar Goodbeard. But just after sunrise yesterday, something truly strange was bobbing there in the shallows near Pier 41: a submarine fashioned almost completely from wood, and inside it a convicted sex offender found guilty of kidnapping, raping and burying alive a 9-year-old neighbor. A 2002 U.S. Supreme Court ruling prohibits the submersion of mentally retarded people. The mentally retarded team of sex offenders is exploring a new piece of Lantian tech they discovered on the ocean floor, when they are ambushed by an unexpected enemy. A very old, very angry enemy. With the help of a good hazmat suit you can enter into player-versus-player combat by storming enemy capitals, entering special PvP zones called battlegrounds, or by attacking the guards in enemy cities.
