Aether Rebooted/Pack-a-Punch

Pack-a-Punch is a utility found within Aether Rebooted. It is featured in every single map so far, most of the time taking the same appearance. Village of the Execrated, however, uses the model first seen in the Call of Duty: Black Ops II map Origins instead.

Creation & Reverse Engineering
During the golden age of Atlantis, the Vril'Ya created what would be known as the first Pack-a-Punch machine in an attempt to enhance their weapons with Vril energy to make them far more powerful. This first Pack-a-Punch was known to the Vril'Ya as the "Pa'ka". This was done in an attempt to better protect their city from any possible threats. However, when Atlantis was destroyed by an Element 115 meteor, the Pa'ka was sent to the depths of the sea. It remained beneath the ocean until a team of Group 935 researchers discovered the lost-city of Atlantis, along with the Pa'ka. The Group 935 took the device and transported it to one of their research facilities, where Dr. Maxis took over experiments on the device personally. Through hard work and research, Maxis was able to reverse engineer the Pack-a-Punch using the initial Vril energy found within the Pa'ka.

Distribution
Maxis decided that the Pack-a-Punch could be one of the most profitable and powerful devices in human history. As such, he began a mass production of Pack-a-Punch machines, still draining the Vril energy from the Pa'ka. Eventually, the Pa'ka ran completely dry of Vril energy, leaving the Pa'ka useless. As such, no more Pack-a-Punch machines could be produced. Although annoyed, Maxis still shipped out the Pack-a-Punch machines that he did produce to the highest bidder, claiming a "test run" of Pack-a-Punch machines would be conducted to decide whether they'd be profitable or not. Both the Soviet Union and the United States showed great interest in the Pack-a-Punch machines, attempting to outbid each-other when buying the machines. Eventually, Group 935 sold all but a few Pack-a-Punch machines (to continue experimentation).

Battle of Der Riese
After the German government deemed Group 935 to be a threat and banned it in their country borders, the Americans sent an elite task force in to infiltrate the "Der Riese" facility and steal anything that they could find, specifically the Pack-a-Punch machine. However, the Soviets also sent a spec-ops force to do the exact same thing. A firefight between the forces broke out, with the Americans barely escaping alive. While the Soviets were able to steal the original Perk Machines, the Americans completed their mission in stealing one of the Pack-a-Punch machines that Group 935 had left over. This Pack-a-Punch machine would eventually be delivered to the McCain Research Facility, where it would be experimented on by the Americans.

Village of the Execrated
After the Avogadro accidentally created his own pocket dimension, the Avogadro recreated the Pack-a-Punch machine, albeit with certain cosmetic differences.
