It was pointed out to me that in the Top Cow comics, it was shown to be in a building that is the same design as Freedom Corps Plaza in Galaxy City Echo. Was it actually Freedom Corps as their HQ or just another building of the same design? I do know the original HQ was in Baumtown before it went BOOM but what about now? |
Now they're using Fort Trident permanently since Galaxy City is off limits.

Below Manticore's mansion; you visit it during Twinshot's story arcs. Where his mansion is supposed to be I don't know.

Interesting . . . . so they knew Galaxy City would be destroyed so they decided to build another base beforehand . . . .
Then they also just happen to be there at the scene when it gets destroyed . . . . . hmmmm
Phalanx are working with the coming storm!

Before Galaxy, their HQ was in Boomtown.

Fort Trident is a Longbow base they're using for their 'public access' headquarters. Manticore has always had his... (Manticave, maybe?) and is now letting them use it as their private headquarters.
"I play characters. I have to have a very strong visual appearance, backstory, name, etc. to get involved with a character, otherwise I simply won't play it very long. I'm not an RPer by any stretch of the imagination, but character concept is very important for me."- Back Alley Brawler
I couldn't agree more.

You know, this does bring to light an interesting pattern regarding the Phalanx HQ location.
Original Location: BaumTown. It's now "BOOM" town.
2nd location: Galaxy City. That went kerbluie.
3rd Location: Fort Trident (which is in theory a longbow base and I think that Liberty will be going a bit more rogue in coming times)
Anyone want to place a bet on what will destroy Fort Trident?

Nah, it's a secret 'public' headquarters. Only "Pure Heroes" know about it. It... apparently gets sucked out of your mind if your alignment becomes something else.|

It may be horned, winged, or both. The tail is that of either a dragon or a scorpion, and it may shoot poisonous spines to either paralyze or kill its victims. It devours its prey whole. It leaves no clothes, bones, or possessions of the prey behind.

Besides, his den is upstairs and has a very spiffy fireplace
Plus, on top of all of that, he's also part-hero *rimshot*, and they can have headquarters, hideouts, and even fortresses of solitude!
(I hope everyone realizes I'm doing this in fun and not trying to start some flame war over the... Manticave... or whatever it's decided to be)
