These zones are found on three stations: [[Checkmate Station|Checkmate]], [[Orbituary]] and [[Ruin Station]].
The main contested zones are located on three [[Space station|space stations]] in the [[Pyro system]], and are the sources of Boards 1 through 7:

* [[Checkmate Station|Checkmate]]
* [[Orbituary]]
* [[Ruin Station]]

Two other contested zones act as a source for red keycards, which are required to bypass the red locked doors in the main contested zones:

* [[PYAM-SUPVISR-3-4]]
* [[PYAM-SUPVISR-3-5]]

Finally, the Executive Hangars allow you to turn in Boards 1 through 7 in exchange for one of five ships, as well as powerful FPS weapons (grenade launchers, railguns) and Grade-A ship components:

* [[PYAM-EXHANG-0-1]]
