City of Herz

Similar to some other 2D MMORPGs, Metal Assault has only one town: The City of Herz.

The City of Herz is home to the ROC military and is also named for the Herz company - which employs soldiers and security for its own objectives. The City of HERZ is divided into three sections:

Military Area: The Military Area is the northern most portion of the city. In this area, several NPCs are available that offer quests, some of which are repeatable. Major NPCs in this area include Ben (the company manager), Steve (the skills trainer), and Lynn (the event manager).

Commercial Area: The Commercial Area is along the southwestern portion of the map. This area offers many stores in which to buy basic equipment. Venny's Shop, also known as the honor store, offers unique items that can only be purchased with honor points. Clothing, backpacks, flak jackets and ammo pouches can be purchased at the Uniform Shop. SHOT! sells various firearms at every license level. Drinky's sells medicinal products, explosives and other varied items of interest.

Town Square: The Town Square can be more commonly referred to as the market district and is the southeastern part of town. This district is usually filled with dozens of player-run stores selling various items, many not available in the Commercial Area. Other notable objects of interest in the market district are the NPCs B. Rokin (weapon modifier) and Sing (the banker).
