  • GAIA wants to ask you a question....

    We now know that Morgans and Spartans are north of us/Hive. We also know that NW part has Garland Crater. So the question is, if you were game creator, would you place Spartans on Garland Crater or Morgan?
    Morgan's tactic of ICSing would be supproted by +1 minerals there. On the other hand, Spartans have negative industrial rating + they can't run wealth. I think it is very likely that Spartans are near Garland Crater, since Garland Crater on Morgan continent would an overkill IMHO.
    However, I am interested in your opinion on this theory.

    I say Spartans, since they are horribly underpowered relative to even the other human-controlled factions in this game, especially with Yang in the middle, since he's the only one they couldn't steamroll with impact infantry. Without the military option, they become even weaker compared to three builder/hybrids.

      I agree with Spartans, but just because I believe that the great ones may have found it in their interests not to enhance the economic power of Morgan, but rather to help what is often considered a weaker faction.... But maybe they're trying to be tricky!

        So what did Angels get???

        Also it's obvius that each human faction has 2 special areas (we - ruins + UF) from which one is rather an object (Ruins, Manifold Nexus, Sunny Mesa) and the other is a place/area (UF, Monsoon, Thermal, Freshwater)

        Voted for Spartans

          I think Angels got Nessus Canyon IIRC.
