![]() ![]() The group quickly comes to the realization, though, that the Cybrans will never be able to win such a campaign. In the meantime, Brackman gathers his military commanders in a desperate bid to devise a strategy that will enable the Cybrans to defeat the Aeon and the Earth Empire. But it had made its mark Procyon, once a rough but life-filled world, now became a barren and desolate wasteland.Īs the war against the Earth Empire rages on, Brackman orders many Nodes to do what they do best: hide. The imperial troops, regardless of any advice, began scorching the planet with bio-nuclear weapons, forcing the Cybrans to flee. At first, the free symbionts, now known as Cybrans, employed guerilla tactics to deal with the imperial troops, but soon began fighting an all-out war with the Earth Empire. Brackman had already disabled the program in his fellow free symbionts. The seraphim equivalent has a slightly different description and appearance it is called an Air Staging Beacon instead of an Air Staging Facility.The Earth Empire began to invade Procyon, in hopes of stopping any organised formation of symbionts. The UEF's, Aeon's and Seraphim's are nicknamed Refuel & Repair, Cradle and Iathu-uhthe. The absolute unit of choice for this tactic is the Aeon T3 AA Gunship: Restorer, as it combines high HP for a low cost, and sacrifices a bit of land fire power for excellent anti-air.Īll of the faction's air staging facility are equivalent. If not, it'll be big enough to destroy the opponent's ACU. By the end of the game, you should have a fleet big enough to destroy the opponent's entire base. As the game progresses, your fleet will increase in size, and minimize losses (a big army destroys its targets quickly). ![]() Repair them after every mission, while building more. Build a small fleet of gunships, and send them only on little hit and run missions, always making sure they return. ![]() An aircraft is repaired and/or refueled in a matter of seconds the real bottleneck is the waiting line to dock with the platform if a large group of aircraft is waiting for repairs.Īfter seeing how cheap it is to repair aircraft instead of rebuilding them, we can understand the gunship hit-and-run tactic. Repairing an aircraft costs about 3.5% of its cost, so you can repair about 30 aircraft for the cost it takes to build one. The cost you will invest in the air staging facility will be dwarfed by the maintenance cost of repairs, but the resources saved from not rebuilding your aircraft will justify your investment. On larger maps however, where there is much more ground to cover, Air Staging Facilities become more restricted for perimeter patrols and mobile Carriers and the Fatboy become essential when launching aggressive air raids closer towards the front lines.Īt 2100 energy, 175 mass and 350 time, the A ir Staging Facility costs less than most Tech 2 units, and should be built as early as possible if you plan to make substantial use of aircraft. However, you can also manually order aircraft to return for forced maintenance Incredibily useful before an attack, to repair expensive aircraft, or to refuel light ones. When heavily damaged, or running low on fuel, all aircraft will try to return to the nearest Air Staging Facility for repairs You can tell from this by the purple circle surrounding the facility when selected. In fact, they are one of the most useful structures to have in a base as it can help mantain aerial patrols.Īll platforms can support up to 4 T1 aircraft but only one T3-T4 unit so having more to accommodate large squadrons is highly recommended. Air Staging Facilities are stationary platforms to repair and refuel aircraft. ![]()
