What the cash system establishes

Team17 describes cash persisting between matches and purchases of weapons, equipment and vehicles for each life. That does not establish the cost of an FOB piece or prove that placed structures persist between matches. Those are separate rules and should be checked against current game documentation.

How to read “not verified”

It means this reference does not have sufficient evidence for a value, not that the feature is absent. Check the current build menu, official patch notes or a documented in-game measurement before relying on a number. Costs and health values need a game version as well as a source date.

Official source and version limits

Team17’s WARDOGS overview explicitly names the forward operating base, fortification, destruction examples and cash economy. Reviewed 7 October 2026. The overview labels the game as out in Steam Early Access, but is not a versioned structure-stat sheet.
