Overview

In-game description
Ring in the Lunar new year with a massive gong!

A base dressed for the Lunar New Year usually ends up with red Chinese lanterns in the windows, a Firecracker String saved for midnight and something loud by the front door. The gong is that loud thing. Strike it when the team logs on for the evening, and the whole compound knows the party has started.

The recipe is light: 50 metal fragments and 100 wood, no workbench. You cannot research it, so a spare copy teaches you nothing. Its blueprint is tied to owning the item on Steam, so only owners see it in the crafting menu.

It does nothing in a fight. Enjoy it while the holiday runs, and send it to the recycler when the decorations come down.
