Barge

Barges are on Mars the only reliable way to quickly travel over the planet. They are used to travel through the channels that criss-cross the planet. They are armed with cannons for defense against the extremely agressive Canal Worms and actually come in two sizes:


 * The Mining Barge is a huge barge, which has mining tracks on it. It is oviously used in mining operations to transport the mining carts to their destination. The Avatar found one in Martian Dreams near the city of Hellas at 27°S, 62°E.


 * Since the channels are smaller near Argyre, another, smaller type of barge has to be used to enter them. One is found at 4°S 7°W, and it was essential to enter Argyre.
