Overview

In-game description
A machine which will blanket the surrounding terrain in snow.

Green grass around the base in December, and the clan wants a white Christmas anyway. According to its game text, this machine blankets the terrain around it in snow, so the yard can finally match the decorations inside.

Unlike most of the holiday decor, it needs a real bench: a Level 1 workbench, plus 125 metal fragments, 30 low grade fuel and one metal pipe. The pipe is the part to think about, because pipes also go into guns. It cannot be researched either: its blueprint is tied to owning the item on Steam.

It most likely burns low grade fuel while it runs, so keep a stack beside it. Fresh snow on the slope behind the base might also give a sled something to ride on, though test that before you promise the clan a race.
