    Ascendance City is built on a hill overlooking the Paraquay River. It stands to the north of the ruins of the old Asuncion, a city of which little remains except for blast craters, rubble and sparse shrubbery. The RDF assessed the area for military use and hired many of the locals to buil Destroid and Veritech hangars, mecha repair facilities, storage buildings, barracks and housing for troops. The locals were also hired to assist in the clean-up and maintenance of the area. RDF B-7 is a sprawling military community and its presence has stimulated the growth of the civilian community around it. A growing town has sprung up in the old warehouse district in the northern suburbs, which had survived with lesser damage. The people who straggled back to the ruins of the devastated city have erected a half dozen shanty-towns and dozens of little farms and tiny cattle ranches.

    B-7 is most important as the base of operations for the 312th Infantry Brigade. From this location, infantry units are spread out along the perimeter of the Zentraedi Control Zone. Their primary mission is security and containment, but troops also engage in strikes across the border or reconnaissance and rescue missions. This is also one of the largest mecha bases in the quadrant, used as a service and resupply point for Destroids on border patrol and long range reconnaissance patrol. Combat operations are supported by air cover and intelligence functions headquartered at the base.
