Author Topic:   Vote for your favorite terraforming options!!!

This is just like the other three votes. Give three points to your favorite, two to #2, and one to your third favorite.
#1 - Sensor Array (I use them for the +25% bonus they give my bases)
#2 - Road/Mag Tube (Great for speeding units on their way)
#3 - Construct Bunker (I build them in the same square as my Sensors so that the units that I tell to defend the Sensor get a +75% bonus)
#4 (if there was a 4) would be Airbase because I use needlejets a fair amount

Construct Airbase - 0 ( )

Hmz..
First of all MOfTheUniversity ... Have you been bored lately?
Well, as it takes me perhaps 5 minutes to answer this, I might as well do it.

This sounded silly at first, but then I thought the results might actually be useful. My vote would depend on the faction I was playing, so if I was NOT playing the Gaians:

Well, I'll go have to say:
Echelon Mirror #1 These things are GREAT!
Condenser #2 Necessity to feed big bases.
Forest #3 Great for all-around resources. I put these anywhere the ground is arid, flat, and low-pick any two.
farms and solar collectors are so essential I hardly can count them, but they get an honorable mention.

Hard to choose. I guess I'll pick based on how often I do them (not counting the farms and collectors).
3pts Forest (I like the trees)
2pts Road (Connects the places together)
1pt Array (I like have one per base)

Build Road/Mag Tube - 6
