Overview[]
A Power Plant is an original building from the game, The Conquerors. This building has played a huge role within many different types of strategies used in the game and has also founded the main income source for players, this Income Building costs $65 to build and produces $10 per minute. When placed next to a Super Crystal, they produce $20 per minute. In the early phases of a game, these can be better than Nuclear Plants, as they are much cheaper, allowing players to build more power plants.
Usage[]
The main use of a Power Plant is to produce income for the player. With enough of these plants, the player can earn a maximum of $180 to a minimum of $90 depending on the map. Power Plants are moderately durable, meaning if an enemy player decides to attack with a small army early in the match, then the defending player will have some time to bring units to save it from being destroyed. Another use of a Power Plant is to set up a temporary offensive base. With an energy crystal close by, players can build a Power Plant near an enemy base. With this, players can build some defensive and production buildings to create a strong army and attack the enemy base.
Strategies[]
- With Power Plants being a cheap Income Building they can be spread around maps relatively quickly to gain map control. This will look much more menacing for the enemy on the mini-map, as enemy structures are everywhere. This is just a scare tactic though at this point; if paired with a good ally, 2 people can easily reign a land-based map. With this income, players can build early-mid to late game structures depending on the situation e.g. Airport for transportation, tanks for heavy attacks, and many more.
- Another Strategy used by players is when arriving at an enemy base, players will head for the side of the base that has an energy crystal and place a plant preventing their opponent from placing turrets or any kind of defensive building. Players can do this because enemy buildings cannot be placed near a player’s plant.
Trivia[]
