The Residents are one of the four playable factions in Battle Worlds : Kronos.
After Kronos almost got annihilated during the previous war of succession, everyone with enough financial means or influence fled to the neighboring planet Rhea. Those who were left behind died of radiation poisoning or starved to death in the following nuclear winter. Only few survived and formed a new society. Ever since, they call themselves the "Residents". They are technologically far less advanced than the Invaders, but they denounced the vicious cycle of war and are still hoping that this war of succession will not draw them in once more. It’s a hope that will soon be dashed.
The units of the Residents are often makeshift units held together by hastily wielded pieces of steel. Other units are civilian vehicles provisionally equipped with military-grade weaponry. In an open battle, these units stand no chance against the Invaders. However, those low tech units have a powerful advantage, as they can be repaired by incorporating salvaged enemy wrecks!
Another advantage of the Residents are their powerful infantry units. The assault and gunnery infantry units are a lot more powerful than the X-100 battle robots of the Invaders. Since they live on Kronos and know their way around, they are able to camouflage themselves very effectively. An ambush by the Residents is feared by all other Houses.
